- The Phoenicia Malta
The finest hotels around the world – like the The Phoenicia Malta near Valetta – have all earned their reputation over time. Indeed, the Phoenicia Hotel tends to make such an impression on its guests that they keep coming back.
As soon as you arrive at the impressive entranceway with its pillared entrance and portico, you'll see just how special the Phoenicia Hotel is. Absolutely in keeping with the traditional grandeur of the capital city, Valetta, it is a wonderful venue from which to really come to appreciate the very best that Malta has to offer.
The Phoenicia Malta's 1920's design aesthetic is a welcome breath of fresh air – richly and comfortably furnished and full of beautiful details. It's grand but very accessible – the thickly upholstered plush chairs are there to be sat on, for example.
Working in such a grand interior, the Phoenicia Malta staff have to work hard to ensure that the service they offer matches up. That the level of service here is consistently impeccable is a testament to them – and a big factor in bringing so many people back here year after year.
Classic twin/double air-conditioned or heated rooms are well-equipped with satellite TV, free Wi-Fi, radio, phone, safe, tea and coffee making facilities, complimentary non-alcoholic mini-bar, and hairdryer. Superior Rooms, Executive Rooms and Deluxe Harbour View Rooms are available at a supplement.
There are beautiful swimming pools, there are wonderful choices to be made in the hotel's two à la carte restaurants; there is even a hotel jewellery shop. (And of course, there's an excellent gym.) To top it all off, the Phoenicia Hotel is set in seven acres of landscaped gardens.
The happy combination of its distinctive design and exceptional service means that the Phoenicia Malta richly deserves every one of its five stars. That it's a convenient gateway for Valetta almost makes you wish you could give it a sixth star!

Absolutely stunning hotel! If you like to stay at a Hotel which oozes grandeur and glamour… look no further. The Phoenicia is a truly gem of a hotel… our stay in Valletta was enhanced by staying at this grande dam! Pure quality and luxury!
An excellent experience. Wonderful week in the centre of Valetta in a splendid hotel could not have asked for more.
If you want to feel and be treated like royalty, and you are not a member of the royal family, then come stay at The Phoenicia in Malta. The service is exceptional from the moment I was greeted by Sharona at the front desk and Simon at the front door. I came several hours early so I was taken to their beautiful spa where I swam in their other worldly indoor swimming pool actually built into the city’s rock wall. Their garden is a scaled down version of Versailles. Their outdoor pool makes you feel like you are in the south pacific only you are surrounded by ancient rock walls. The food is delicious and what a treat to be on the terrace surrounded by history with a magnificent view of the city. Their spa with the indoor pool is worthy of a Roman emperor. I will be back for sure!!
Yet another great stay with the hotel under current management reaching new heights. Accommodation, service, f and b and facilities are all top class. The price point is high for the island but in this case deservedly so.
It is rare to visit a hotel and find nothing to criticize but the Phoenicia was perfect. The staff was the warmest and best trained I have ever seen. The pool and restaurants are first rate, and the location is superb.
