A lovely characterful property in a quiet, yet incredibly convenient location. Our suite in the Hideaway was on the top floor with a mezzanine level and outdoor spa pool. The view towards the harbour and of the three cities was amazing. However, for someone less mobile the spiral staircase might be tricky to climb. The hotel was very luxurious and the service first class. We will definitely return as Malta has so much to offer and 3 days wasn’t nearly enough time to experience it all.

Beautiful hotel. So happy with our decision to stay at this property. The room was unique - built into the fortress structure. Location was central and service exceptional. They anticipated needs before we even know we needed the item. Highly recommend this property and brand. The front desk and concierge were incredibly helpful and attentive in assisting with dinner reservations and transportation.

Iniala Harbour House is an amazing place! They went above and beyond for us on our short stay there for the first stop of our honeymoon. The room and views were gorgeous, the staff was kind and courteous. We were able to use to indoor cave pool late one night just for ourselves and it was incredibly romantic. We also forgot an iPad and they called us asap to come retrieve it! Best place to stay in Valletta! I wish we could have stayed there longer
