Explore Hotels in Malta

The gorgeous, copper-tinted shores of Malta don’t resemble the typical postcard beach. Yes, you can build sandcastles at Golden Bay and Ramla Bay, but much of the coastline is beautifully craggy, carved into hidden coves that tempt you to dive straight into impossibly clear water. Snorkelling, diving, kayaking and windsurfing are all part of daily life here, thanks to the island’s sparkling Mediterranean setting.

Malta’s strategic position has shaped its history as much as its scenery. Floating between Europe and North Africa, it has long defended its territory, leaving behind formidable fortresses, silent cannons and the compelling National War Museum in Valletta. Honey-coloured streets and baroque architecture tell stories of knights, sieges and seafaring power.

We’ve been busy rounding up the finest luxury hotels in Malta, selecting stays that reflect the island’s character, warm, elegant and quietly distinctive. Paired with friendly locals, charming old towns and Italian-influenced cuisine rich in seafood and sunshine, every day in Malta feels wonderfully special.
