Just south of Sicily, Malta is a small archipelago of three islands but packs in prehistoric temples, a thriving capital and turquoise waters flowing onto white-sand beaches. Located on Malta Island, the ancient capital city of Valletta is described by UNESCO as ‘one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world’. Like a fine wine, the city has improved with age; its Roman Catholic cathedral flanked by an array of museums, shopping areas and 16th-century mansions converted into bars and restaurants. Other must-see attractions include the Hypogeum – a prehistoric burial site unearthed in 1902 – and the Megalithic temples which can be observed on both Malta and Gozo island. Malta’s rural beauty makes it perfect for all sorts of activities, such as hiking along the Gozo coast, sailing past secluded caves or diving amongst shipwrecks. If you’d rather ride a wave than dive below one, then numerous surfing spots are available, including Palm Beach, St. Thomas and Ghallis on the north shores of Malta. Comino is Malta’s smallest island but still worth a visit by any means. Its main draw is the Blue Lagoon – a huge pool of crystal-clear water on the uninhabited islet of Cominotto. A number of hotels, guests houses and apartments are available, with options provided on each of the three islands.

Featuring an outdoor swimming pool, terrace, bar and free WiFi, Lulu Boutique Hotel is located in Żebbuġ, 6.8 km from Hagar Qim and 7.2 km from Valletta Waterfront.
Guest review
We loved everything about Lulu. It is by far, the best place we have ever stayed on all of our travels. It is one of those hotels that truly feels like a home away from home. Clive and Liudmila have perfected it. Their attention to detail and ensuring a welcoming, kind and personal experience is one that we have never experienced anywhere else.

Drinking tea in the morning on the rooftop terrace overlooking Mdina was a perfect start of the day. The room was amazing, clean and all the welcoming treats were great. Would definitely stay here again.

Guest review
Charming hotel with very friendly staff, always eager to help and offer advice regarding places of interest, dining and transport options. The owners, Carmen and Chris, are very kind and welcoming and make sure that the guests feel at home, away from home. The rooms are very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The hotel is perfectly located, at just a 1-minute walk from the centre of the town. We definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Malta.

Guest review
The staff is really the shining star of this hotel.
I wish I could remember the name of the gentleman who assisted me on my arrival on May 30th - because he was so exceptional (it wasn't the manager who wasn't there). Either way - exceptional hotel. Gorgeous rooftop with a view of the harbour. Also the unique character of the former Palazzo really shines through.
There's a ferry service at the door of the hotel to take you to Valletta which is quite fun. And Birgu itself is charming and historical. I nice change from the more over-touristed pace of Valletta.

The Capital Boutique Hotel features a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, shared lounge, a terrace and bar in Valletta.
Guest review
The receptionist was so kind, professional and pleasant and the reception area is very nice. You’ve got ice water at the entrance and between 18:00-19:00 has happy hour free drinks. ( we didn’t have the chance to taste it but I believe it’s wonderful. )
The breakfast has many choices and the environment everywhere is spotless.
The room and the bathroom was spacious, modern with lovely Maltese balcony. The total price for that room size and room type was very worthy considering it’s 5 stars and it’s in the heart of Valletta.
The minibar in the room is toooooo good!
