Just south of Sicily, Malta is a small archipelago of three islands but packs in prehistoric temples, a thriving capital and turquoise waters flowing onto white-sand beaches. Located on Malta Island, the ancient capital city of Valletta is described by UNESCO as ‘one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world’. Like a fine wine, the city has improved with age; its Roman Catholic cathedral flanked by an array of museums, shopping areas and 16th-century mansions converted into bars and restaurants. Other must-see attractions include the Hypogeum – a prehistoric burial site unearthed in 1902 – and the Megalithic temples which can be observed on both Malta and Gozo island. Malta’s rural beauty makes it perfect for all sorts of activities, such as hiking along the Gozo coast, sailing past secluded caves or diving amongst shipwrecks. If you’d rather ride a wave than dive below one, then numerous surfing spots are available, including Palm Beach, St. Thomas and Ghallis on the north shores of Malta. Comino is Malta’s smallest island but still worth a visit by any means. Its main draw is the Blue Lagoon – a huge pool of crystal-clear water on the uninhabited islet of Cominotto. A number of hotels, guests houses and apartments are available, with options provided on each of the three islands.

Guest review
Everything was perfect. Due to a delayed flight we only arrived after 1am and the staff were fantastic in not only accommodating our late arrival but also offered us drinks and amazing banana cake!
Room was perfect, pool area is amazing. Great little spot!

Situated within 9.1 km of Hagar Qim and 11 km of University of Malta, Maison Medina Malta provides rooms in Mdina.
Guest review
Maison Medina exceeded our expectations. Beautiful property with fantastic service. The property was meticulously set up. Bed was very comfortable too. The view of the Mdina from the rooftop terrace was a bonus. Mdina was also just across the street. Anita, who hosted us was outstanding. She made us feel so welcomed.

The staff is really the shining star of this hotel.
I wish I could remember the name of the gentleman who assisted me on my arrival on May 30th - because he was so exceptional (it wasn't the manager who wasn't there). Either way - exceptional hotel. Gorgeous rooftop with a view of the harbour. Also the unique character of the former Palazzo really shines through.
There's a ferry service at the door of the hotel to take you to Valletta which is quite fun. And Birgu itself is charming and historical. I nice change from the more over-touristed pace of Valletta.

Guest review
This property is a traditional Maltese townhouse renovated to an extremely high standard. The rooms are beautifully appointed, with big, comfortable beds, lots of storage space, and the shower in our bathroom was huge! We opted for a sea view and on opening the shutters when we arrived, we were quite taken aback by how beautiful it was. The whole place felt solid and secure, and although we didn't meet the owners in person, communication was good and we knew they were available if we needed them. Codes for the main door and our room were provided the day before our trip and everything was exactly as promised. The location is excellent, with many recommended places of interest practically on the doorstep. A short walk around the corner takes you to a myriad of enticing little bars, coffee shops, and places to eat. Our visit was fantastic from beginning to end and I can't recommend it highly enough!
