The Phoenicia Malta was built in the 1930s just outside Valletta's fortifications in Floriana, though its completion was delayed by wartime bombing before it formally opened in November 1947.
Its art deco architecture and terraced gardens overlook Marsamxett Harbour and Valletta's skyline, largely unchanged since the sixteenth century. The hotel hosted official functions around Malta's independence in 1964 and has been operated by Irish hospitality group Heuston since 2007.
