Nothing quite compares to a walk along the seaside promenade in Valetta, except perhaps a tour of some of the incredible structures in the city that date back to the sixteenth century. Located on the eastern coast of the island nation of Malta, this de facto capital is a beautiful paradise in the Mediterranean, and home to a wide variety of incredible palaces and museums of stunning architectural style ranging from Baroque to modern. A World Heritage Site since the early nineteen eighties, the cultural, architectural, and historical importance of Valetta has been recognized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization, assisting in furthering both business and leisure travel to the city. Regardless of the reason for visiting this shining coastal town, a relaxing and enjoyable experience can only be enhanced as a guest in one of these exceptional Valetta hotels.

Originally founded and build by the Knights of the Order of Saint John, and the then head of their order, Grand Master La Valette, in the middle of the sixteenth century, Valetta's historical buildings are predominantly Baroque in architecture, with splashes of late Mannerist Renaissance and Neo-Classical design. Some of the most famous and well known artists throughout history have worked on many of Valetta's church ceilings and palace walls, offering a wealth of grand period pieces that have survived centuries of sieges, occupations and most recently two world wars. The majority of the hotels in Valetta are of modern design, adding a touch of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries without disrupting the timeless beauty of this historical city.

These Valetta hotels provide luxurious, air-conditioned rooms with all the amenities one would expect from five star hoteliers. Large, comfortable beds with rich linens, and comfortable chairs and couches in the seating areas are offered. Modern bathroom facilities in the rooms can include spa-like showers and luxurious boutique bath products. Floor to ceiling windows and private balconies in the hotel rooms can offer panoramic views of Valetta and the seafront. In-room technology can include flat-screen high definition televisions with satellite TV access, as well as high speed internet and Wi-Fi. Coffee and tea making facilities are usually provided in the rooms of these Valetta hotels, as well as mini bars, room service, and in-room breakfasts. Non-smoking rooms and facilities for disabled guests are also available.

Some of the other amenities that these Valetta hotels can provide are full service wellness facilities and spas with up to two hundred different treatments, including various massages and Thalasso therapy. Outdoor salt-water swimming pools and Jacuzzis often grace the grounds of these fine hotels as well as beautiful botanical gardens. The twenty-four hour front desk can exchange any currency, as well as protect guest valuables in the safety deposit boxes, and provide luggage storage. Shoe shines, ironing services, laundry, and dry cleaning are available, as well as hotel souvenir and gift shops. The hotel concierge and tour desk can help with car and bicycle rentals, as well as directions to local Valetta attractions, advice on local cuisine, and tickets for tours of Valetta amongst other services.

The hotel concierge will most likely suggest the following attractions in Valetta as well as many others not mentioned here. St. John's Co Cathedral is a must see. Relatively unimpressive on the outside, the interior is absolutely phenomenal. The Cathedral Museum is home to two of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio's most famous works, and now occupied by various Maltese governmental bodies and heads of state, the Palace of the Grand Masters offers a daily tour that cannot be missed. Upon arrival in Valetta, perhaps a quick stop at St. Elmo Bastions for the Malta Experience, a short introduction to important historical points for the country, as well as information on its culture both past and present. For a beautiful view, take in an afternoon at The Upper Barrakka Gardens, which was built in the seventeenth century and is home to many sculptures.

The Valetta waterfront, where some of these hotels are located, offers a wide variety of restaurants, clubs and shops, and is really the part of Valetta that comes alive at night. Dining in these hotels can range from casual at the bars and cocktail lounges to fine dining at one of the many restaurants on-site. Cuisine is often Mediterranean as would be expected, but there are certainly a variety of eateries in Valetta that offer many different international dishes. For evening entertainment perhaps take in a show at the Manoel, one of Europe's oldest active playhouses, or a performance at the Royal Opera House. Valetta is also home to many carnivals, feasts, and festivals year round, and the concierge at the hotel will certainly be familiar with what events are happening at any given time of year.

Malta is a somewhat wonderfully isolated island nation, with Valetta certainly being one its major attractions. With a mixture of beach life with its sailing, fishing, surfing, scuba-diving, snorkeling and various other water sports, and its historic architectural and artistic significance, Valetta is an amazing place to vacation. Excellent accommodations are always of great import for any traveler, and these fine Valetta hotels provide the very best in service and amenities, with the kind of style and ambiance that appeal to all. Enjoy a relaxing and memorable vacation as a guest in one of these exceptional hotels, and guarantee that a visit to Valetta will truly be an incredible experience.
