Hotel Juliani

Perched on Spinola Bay in the heart of St. Julian's (Paceville), this 4-star boutique hotel puts you steps from Spinola Garden, St George’s Bay and a short drive to Sliema Promenade and Portomaso Marina. Ideal for wandering the waterfront, nightlife and marina-side cafés — a compact, family-friendly base for exploring Malta.

A converted seaside townhouse with small-design, Mediterranean vibes and an intimate, family-run feel. Rooms are fresh and simply stylish, with minibars, DVD players, 32-inch TVs, bathrobes and designer toiletries. Many rooms and suites open onto balconies or terraces with unobstructed sea views; rooftop pool overlooks the bobbing fishing boats. Expect personalized service and a relaxed, boutique atmosphere.

Soak on the rooftop pool or dip in the outdoor (and seasonal indoor) pools, then hit the fitness center. Concierge, poolside bar, rooftop terrace and a café round out the social spaces. Complimentary wired and wireless internet keeps you connected. Babysitting is available for families (surcharge), plus on-site massage and wellness services for slow, sea-breeze mornings.

Meeting and conference space (about 269 sq ft), complimentary wired internet in public areas, limo/town car service and a 24-hour airport shuttle for a surcharge. Free self-parking and 24-hour reception make arrivals and events straightforward.

ZEST restaurant serves ocean-view dining and Mediterranean/local flavors. There’s a bar/lounge and poolside bar for cocktails, a café for snacks, and buffet breakfasts daily (7:00–10:30, fee). Room service is available during limited hours.
