"A row of four antique townhouses renovated by the Istanbul-based architectural studio Autoban into an ultra-luxe lodging that’s eclectic in its design and totally contemporary in its comforts. The name is an accurate description of the location, facing right out over the harbor; the vibe, thanks to its small size, is ultra-private and ultra-discreet." - Mitchell Friedman

My partner and I have just returned from a wonderful stay in the Hideaway Harbour View Studio, a few doors along from the main Iniala Harbour House hotel. The location is fantastic and the staff were all brilliant. The butlers and housekeeping staff, who served afternoon tea and drinks, cleaned and serviced the rooms and offered a daily turndown service, were all so helpful, friendly and polite. They are truly a credit to the hotel and really made our stay a special and memorable one. Thank you very much for a great stay! We definitely hope to return!

Our room at Iniala was stunning ! Modern design; large and comfortable, with THE view across the Valletta Grand Harbour to Fort St. Angelo. Beautifully integrated into a series of historic buildings, the hotel has an excellent gym, spa and indoor pool. The hotel restaurant has the same views across the harbour and the breakfast was very tasty. The fixed course restaurant dinner menu did not suit our preferences, but we did enjoy excellent quality food with a room service dinner (which we enjoyed with our balcony doors open!). The hotel is also conveniently located a short walk ‘up’ to the main streets for shops/restaurants/cafes (and to the incredible St John’s Co-cathedral). Iniala is expensive, but it is a hotel which enhances the already amazing experience that is a visit to Valletta. And the rates at the time of our visit (late November) were significantly less expensive than those of the ‘high season’. Hotel service was excellent, with the concierge helpfully organising airport transfers, as well as, private tours of Valletta tour and across to Gozo (both of which are highly recommended).

Absolutely fantastic hotel right in the beautiful city of Valletta. The room was absolutely stunning and the entire property was beautiful throughout. The staff are very friendly and the service is great. Restaurant was quite expensive but was a great experience. We had the pool terrance room and the view is probably the best in all of Malta. Very memorable stay. We will be back

This hotel is amazing. Perfectly situated in the harbour with an amazing views. We stayed in the Hideaway House which is a building on the same block we had the whole floor for our suite which was very nice. The service and staff at the hotel are eager to make your stay memorable. Raphael was very attentive with us and Mario gave us a tour of the island. I will highly recommend you ask for Mario and take the tour with him as he is very knowledgeable and everyone knows him as well. Everything is within walking distance from the hotel. There are plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby. The day we were leaving we saw Mel Gibson who was staying there. Also if you are a foodie, Ion is a two Michelin star restaurant, we had dinner there with the wine pairings, highly recommended. We loved Malta, very safe, clean and with so much history.

Iniala Harbour House exceeded all expectations and delivered an incredible stay. The suites are large and immaculate with modern interiors matched by spectacular views. Dinner at ION was one of the best tasting menus I’ve encountered in a while, refined and approachable. And the team including Rakki (bell team) and Astrid (guest services) went out of the way to ensure an amazing stay. When in Malta, don’t miss an opportunity to experience unparalleled luxury in historic Valletta!

Our family of four (children are 10 and 13) returned for a second stay at Iniala Malta after a fabulous first stay last year. The rooms are beautifully decorated and large, ideal for our family to spread out and relax in. A tasting dinner at Simon Rogan’s Michelin starred Ion restaurant in evening on the terrace as the sun was setting was a delicious highlight. There were some celebrity guests while we were there but you wouldn’t have known as everyone was relaxed and chill. Our only wish is to have some outdoor pool space but with the August heat we were happy with the small basement pool for a cool down. ||The #1 thing about this place is the wonderful staff, many who we recognise from last year. Credit to the team!

I had high expectations when booking this hotel, based on the glowing reviews—and it exceeded them in every way. Staying here was an absolute dream. Our room in the Hideaway House, just a short walk from the main hotel, was stunning—spacious, serene, and beautifully designed (with an amazing harbour view). The service was impeccable, with the staff attending to every detail and making us feel truly cared for. The spa was exceptional as well, with a special thanks to Akanksha and her team for their warm and attentive service. The hotel’s Michelin-starred restaurant, ION, was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had—an absolute culinary delight. It’s the thoughtful touches that set this hotel apart— the bottle of champagne on arrival, the nightly turndown service with chocolates and water, complimentary drinks and snacks in the afternoon, and the meticulous attention to cleanliness and presentation. The location was also perfect. A quick 2 minute walk and you were in the heart of Valletta and close to some amazing restaurants and bars. I can’t fault a single thing about our stay and am already looking forward to returning!!

My wife and I recently visited Dee Spa in Malta and had an unforgettable experience. We opted for a deep tissue massage and were immediately impressed by the serene atmosphere. The soft lighting, calming music, and aromatic oils created the perfect ambiance for relaxation. Akanksha and her colleague were incredibly skilled and attentive, tailoring the massage to our specific needs. The pressure was perfect, and I left feeling completely rejuvenated. I would highly recommend Dee Spa to anyone seeking a truly luxurious and therapeutic massage.
