Hotel Phoenicia Malta

A BusinessClass.com Verified Hotel

The Phoenicia Malta is an iconic hotel just beyond the ancient city walls next to Valetta’s Triton Fountain. Long regarded as a national treasure, the landmark 1920s-style hotel has welcomed stars, socialites and the heads of Europe for over 60 years. The style stays true to the era with live piano music in the lobby, and a gorgeous 3-hectare landscaped garden. Rooms are spacious and elegant, air-conditioned with a minibar and tea and coffee-making facilities. Designed in collaboration with Peter Young, interiors retain original features such as authentic tiled floors with locally sourced furniture, and white and cream patterned textiles with touches of blues and reds – offset by large green-leaved plants. Most rooms at the Phoenicia have baths with showers in them. Most have a separate bath and shower.

The circular Palm Court lounge and bar is the hotel’s heart, with wonderful 1930s white-and-glass doors that lead into the main restaurant. The main Phoenix Restaurant has an inside area and a spacious terrace. Look out for sweet Maltese oranges at breakfast, usually accompanied by platters of local ricotta and excellent ham that’s carved fresh from the bone. A smaller bar has dark wood and leather walls covered in photos of old Malta. Treat yourself to a relaxing massage at the spa. The Phoenicia features a seasonal, outdoor infinity pool overlooking the harbour.
