The Grand Hotel Excelsior is beautiful hotel is two minutes away from Valletta, Malta’s capital and a UNESCO World Heritage site. Sixteenth century fortifications surround the property with its olive gardens making it the only luxury hotel within Malta with such historic architecture. This offers guests the opportunity to re-live Malta’s rich history whilst relaxing in a Mediterranean escape.
Malta is blessed with a rugged and appealing coastline, boasting secluded bays and sandy beaches hidden between rocky outcrops, which attract travellers at least as much as the historical sightseeing. The island’s compact size is also a plus for visitors. It takes no more than an hour to drive between any two points on the main island, and there is very little open space. The dense population means that the island is virtually one large urban area, with buildings occupying every inch. The islanders enjoy life to the full, and the calendar is liberally sprinkled with summertime , with fireworks and revelry in every little parish in honour of the village patron saints, as well as the major carnival in early spring every year. The capital, Valletta, besides offering some awesome Baroque buildings and fortifications as its main sightseeing attractions, is bursting with restaurants and cafes.
