Iniala Harbour House
A sleek, bold boutique stay
VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

Malta’s Iniala Harbour House is actually four side-by-side historical houses in Valletta, a city on the UNESCO World Heritage list. Overlooking the stunning Grand Harbour at St. Barbara Bastion, this boutique hotel by Iniala Group offers 23 uniquely designed accommodations — from sprawling suites with kitchenettes and plunge pools to cozy rooms with epic harbor views from your bathtub. And despite the buildings that date back to the 1600s, all of the accommodations have sleek, modern design punctuated with bold art and sculptures.
Located on the rooftop, ION Harbour, the hotel’s flagship restaurant by notable chef Alex Dilling, is a local favorite for haute cuisine. Essensi spa, within the hotel’s ancient vaults (similar to a stone wine cellar), offers an extensive treatment menu, a heated pool, a sauna and a relaxation room that provides utter tranquility.
