A lovely characterful property in a quiet, yet incredibly convenient location. Our suite in the Hideaway was on the top floor with a mezzanine level and outdoor spa pool. The view towards the harbour and of the three cities was amazing. However, for someone less mobile the spiral staircase might be tricky to climb. The hotel was very luxurious and the service first class. We will definitely return as Malta has so much to offer and 3 days wasn’t nearly enough time to experience it all.

Absolutely flawless in every way. From the champagne tour of the property to the attention to detail, the staff were amazing. The location cannot be beaten - make sure you book a harbour view room. Amazing shower, rooms are immaculate, pool and gym facilities wonderful. Will definitely be back - you can’t stay anywhere else in Valletta!

Happy Guest

Beautiful hotel. So happy with our decision to stay at this property. The room was unique - built into the fortress structure. Location was central and service exceptional. They anticipated needs before we even know we needed the item. Highly recommend this property and brand. The front desk and concierge were incredibly helpful and attentive in assisting with dinner reservations and transportation.

Iniala Harbour House is an amazing place! They went above and beyond for us on our short stay there for the first stop of our honeymoon. The room and views were gorgeous, the staff was kind and courteous. We were able to use to indoor cave pool late one night just for ourselves and it was incredibly romantic. We also forgot an iPad and they called us asap to come retrieve it! Best place to stay in Valletta! I wish we could have stayed there longer

Very good location. Quiet. It’s a boutique hotel offering all amenities one might need. The hotels leans a bit old school luxury in their approach to amenities. Ownership chose a quality design, but took some cuts on furnishings.

This hotel was absolutely stunning, comfortable and luxurious without being stuffy. We came to Malta with no expectations or plans, and were so thrilled with our choice to stay at Iniala Harbour House. The staff were very informative about the property, and local area and guided us to the perfect recommendations for our trip. Although it was a two day stop over from our Sicily vacation, it was the highlight of our trip and we wished we had stayed longer. This is by far one of the best hotels we'e ever stayed at, and we have both traveled the world extensively. We were in the Incognito two story room which was absolutely stunning, it has its own private entrance making us feel like locals and allowing us to exit directly to the street without walking through the hotel. The Ion restaurant was an absolute highlight tor our stay, both of us are foodies and this was an incredible experience, one of the best meals of our lives. The spa is also wonderful. The service from the moment we stepped on property was top notch, we loved that the manager immediately came up to introduce himself and tell us a bit about the hotel. Everything about this place is spectacular, If you're staying in Malta, this is where you need to be!

Not worth the price we paid. The 'city view' room is misleading as we got a room with only a street view. Paid extra to get a harbour view room & unfortunately the harbour view was blocked with a very high balcony - one would need to climb on the seating area to get a good view! The shower drains weren't working well, so couldn't really use both showers at the same time - on the first night water seeped through to the wadrobe area & into room! The choice of furshings looked good but were not practical. Breakfast coice quite limited & on one day we had wait 1hour even for some fruit! Expected more because of the'VIP' status its been given therefore quite disappointing overall.
