About this property

Grand Harbour - Apartment in historic Valletta building

This unique Valletta duplex, is part of a 400-year old historical building. Situated across the road from the iconic Siege War Memorial & the Lower Barrakka Gardens where you can enjoy spectacular views of Malta's Grand Harbour. A 5-minute walk from the center of Valletta - a city buzzing with shops, restaurants, trendy bars & steeped in history. A bus stop is a few steps away. The space is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, or a family with kids.

This self catering maisonette is on 2 levels and has its own front door:
- it has a fully equipped kitchen, a small dining table and a sofa in the space downstairs.

- the bedroom upstairs has a double bed, plenty of wardrobe storage and a small balcony that overlooks a quiet Valletta street that is lined with traditional Maltese balconies.

The apartment forms part of a 17th Century building that was built with walls that are 1.2m wide.... you should feel safe enough inside! When you step outside, you are a few steps away from the spectacular views of Malta's famous Grand Harbour and The 3 Cities. You will be very centrally located within walking distance of all the Valletta attractions, and 1-minute walk from the bus stop.

Amenities include:
An ironing board, hair drier, washing machine, tumble drier, Air Conditioning, TVs with USB ports and Android box for streaming movies, series, YouTube, your Netflix account, etc. WiFi is available free of charge.

The apartment is equipped with a smoke detector, a fire extinguisher & a fire blanket, emergency light and a first aid kit - all located in the kitchen area.

This maisonette is on street level and has very few steps so is ideal for families with young children too. Please let us know if you would like us to provide you with a cot or any other requests from your little ones.

Although the apartment is in a central location in the city of Valletta, it is situated in a traditional residential street - Old Wells Street (or Triq Bjar in Maltese) which is quiet and safe at night.

The bustle of the city is just a corner away.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a phone. Housekeeping is available on request.

We stayed for 11 days. The location was excellent and close to restaurants and groceries. There was a bus stop close by. Arthur arranged for a driver to pick us up and drop us off at the airport which was great. An ice cream truck came by several evenings which was a nice treat. We had a fantastic time.

The apartment was located in the heart of Valletta and close lots of shopping and restaurants. Transportation was only a block away and close to the harbor. The unit was everything we needed with a well equipped kitchen and unique features as shown in the pictures. It felt like you were staying in a piece of history. Would highly recommendd this place.

This is an excellent base for exploring all that Valetta has to offer, being steps (and I do mean steps) away from many historical landmarks and the beautiful Grand Harbour. We enjoyed our stay and had a lot of fun exploring Valetta and other areas of Malta.

The apartment was exactly what I needed for my visit to Valletta. Clean and well located for my purposes. My host, Arthur, was very responsive and helpful before and during my stay, including arranging for a trusted driver to pick me up at the airport, get me checked into the apartment, and take me back to the airport at the crack of dawn the morning that I departed. If I come back to Valletta for the same event next year, I will certainly book with Arthur again.

Malta is an old city and if you're looking to stay in something like an American apartment/hotel, this property is not for you. If you're curious about actual apartments in Valletta, this place is great. Arthur arranged for a driver to pick us up which was a godsend after a very long day of travel.He was extremely helpful when we lost the key to the apartment.The location is close to everything with out being a noisy busy street.My heads up would be if you're a frequent user of the toilet at night, the bedroom is upstairs and the toilet is downstairs.

We never met the host. The key safe was really high and we could hardly reach it. The flat was clean but smelt musty and damp. It was certainly not the nicest of apartments. The kitchen had no windows and the street wasn’t very pleasant. On a positive note there was plenty of hot water and a decent coffee machine. However the toilet and shower room wasn’t very nice, it was off the kitchen, so not very pleasant.
