Hotel Valentina

Top choice in Sliema, St Julian’s & Paceville


This is a small and appealing choice tucked away in a relatively quiet Paceville backstreet. Rooms have a jazzy contemporary look, with lots of pale grey and white, and geometric patterns. The bright, contemporary lobby has a small, buzzing cafe.
