City Breaks in Malta – Malta Hotels

Posted June 25, 2009 by Joyce Wan

20090426034557 Malta may be the ‘Land of Honey’, but there’s a lot more to discover in this tiny archipelago than apiaries. The small size of the country makes it ideal for a short getaway since most areas of interest are relatively close to each other. Its Mediterranean climate also allows for return visits all year round.

Stay
Hotel Juliani – This little boutique hotel, enviably located right beside the harbour in the former fishing village of St. Julians, offers a great base from which to start your explorations. Book an Ambassador suite for a truly luxurious experience, and enjoy the harbour views while relaxing in the Jacuzzi in your bathroom. Prices start at about £100 for a standard room.

Play
The Blue Grotto – Named for the brilliant blue waters surrounding its caverns and accessible only by boat, the Blue Grotto is a must-visit destination for many. Live out your pirate fantasies as your boat passes under a huge natural rock arch carved out by millions of years of wind and salt spray, before entering the system of caves sparkling with seemingly hidden jewels. The multitude of flashing jewel hues are actually from minerals with the rocks themselves, but that won’t spoil your sense of wonderment as you cruise through the ancient cave system.

Eat
Ta’ Marija – This family-run restaurant in the central town of Mosta serves traditional Maltese dishes featuring fresh, succulent rabbit, lamb and seafood. If you’re unsure of what to have, order from one of their three menus for a taste of Maltese cuisine, or just pick from their extensive hot and cold buffets (only available on Saturday and Sunday). There are also ‘entertainment nights’ – usually on Wednesday and Friday nights – where singing and dancing is served along with your meal.
