Hotel Phoenicia Malta (HotelREZ) (Valletta, Malta)

Situated at the gateway to Maltas capital city-the Phoenicia-majestically overlooks Marsamxetto Harbour and Grand Harbour. It opens a door to Valletta as a cultural touchstone of European-African-and near Eastern histories-drawing inspiration from its present-with guests such as Queen Elizabeth II-as well as its past. Experience unparalleled views of the cities 16th century bastions from the waters of the outdoor pool-or gather-with friends-or as wedding guests-in the sunlit gardens-catered to by the banqueting team-with the city views as the backdrop. As you retire to your room- slip into your plush bathrobe-and bask in the welcoming ambiance of warm earth tones in your chicly appointed surroundings. The renowned sites of Malta are just footsteps away from the hotel-including Saint Johns Co-Cathedral-with Caravaggios masterpiece The Beheading of St John the Baptist-the Grand Masters Palace and the War Museum. Enjoy a celebrated selection of local and international performances in the magnificent baroque Manoel Theatre. The Phoenicia is the ideal place to experience subtle indulgences and cultural adventures.
