A stunning hotel in the centre of Valletta. The staff were so wonderful and inviting from the moment I arrived. I was fortunate as arrived at 11am and my room was ready. The rooms, hotel facilities including swimming pool were perfect. The breakfast was tasty and had a good variety of options. Location is also perfect and Valletta is walkable - it was just a short taxi ride to other locations in the south of the island. Plenty of food and drink options a short way from the hotel

I had an amazing stay at The Corinthia in Malta! The staff were incredibly welcoming and went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect throughout my visit. The room was spotless, modern, and very comfortable, with stunning views that made each morning a joy. The location was ideal—close to everything but still peaceful and relaxin
