A touch of Christmas at Valletta Nobile, our baroque inspired suite. The decor at Valletta Nobile is already very opulent however at Christmas time we add a few touches that enhance the Holiday Spirit. Hand-cut iron Christmas Trees, wreaths and small touches that compliment the decor.
This year we introduced the option for guests to experience the unique scents of the oldest (and best) candles in the world - Cire Trudon. As seen in the picture above, the Nazareth candle compliments the decor perfectly and creates an amazing warm atmosphere!
Cire Trudon candles are available on-order at Valletta Suites.

Lazy Days of Summer in Valletta

As cities empty and people flee heat waves in search of the relief of a brisk sea breeze, here at Valletta Suites, we are happy to be minutes away from the sea. As most European cities are located miles away from the nearest beaches, Valletta, Malta’s capital city, is in fact surrounded by the sea on either side of this small peninsula that juts out into the Mediterranean blue sea. All it takes is a short walk; with towels in hand and a borsalino panama for some shade, to find a spot on the seashore where you can meet up locals who go for a swim. There are no huge beach resorts, at least for the time being, but the flat limestone shore and the clear waters invites you for a dip. There are still no signs of chunky knitted wool in the boutiques and Fall’s fashion season seems far away. We are still happily in the throws of the lazy, hazy days of summer. Flowing silhouettes in patterns, bright colours, and cool linens are still the order of the day. Let our Suites inspire you.

The Quieter Beaches in Valletta

What: A gem of a city built to protect the island from invading Ottoman Turks in 1565. Valletta is a baroque architectural feat which still preserves to this day some of the most amazing buildings on the island of Malta.
Where: Built on a peninsula, Valletta is flanked on each side by spectacular harbours and inlets;
clinging to a hill slope with panoramic views of towns and villages across the harbours. There are secret passageways hewn in the rocks dating back to the knights of Malta which lead to bathing platforms and of course the mediterranean blue sea.
Why: Staying in Valletta offers a rare opportunity to experience this exquisite location in an all-encompassing environment (history, art, culinary delights and for the sun worshipers a place where to go for a dip at the end of the day). And while there are many hotels on the island which boast sandy beaches and touristy resorts, Valletta remains something of a secret amongst architecture and culture aficionados, attracted by the coveted combination of style and substance: seawater swimming pool and an oh-so-Maltese rocky beach area with some charming seaside open-air bars and restaurants. Day trips can be taken to Comino island and Gozo just across from Sliema Ferries. In short: Valletta still remains one of the few places not affected by mass tourism and the best place to spend your holidays.

Saint Dominic’s Feast is on till the end of the week, with a grand final on Sunday. Live band plays in front of the statue, followed by devotees; while loud local disco music plays in bars. An excuse to drink and celebrate in the narrow streets of Valletta. True contrasts worth experiencing hands on!
Saint Dominic’s church is located in the lower part of Merchants Street in Valletta, minutes away from Valletta Nobile.
