La Falconeria

This clean-lined boutique hotel behind a historic exterior is a sophisticated base in central Valletta. Quietly tucked away on a side street, this sophisticated hotel is just minutes from Valletta’s elaborate cathedrals and people-watching piazzas. The hotel is surprisingly well equipped for its size. There’s a small gym and a magical hideaway heated pool hidden underground in a cave. The restaurant, L’Artiglio, has made a name for itself by serving plates that are packed with creative flair. The seasonal concept lends itself to a brilliant variety so it’s worth booking a table for lunch or dinner on top of the included à la carte breakfast.
