Called The Vincent in sweet remembrance of the man who, over 80 years ago, was born and raised in this palazzo, the accommodation is beautifully quirky to complement the surrounding area.

Washing lines hang from nearby windows and on sultry days people linger outside their houses for their ration of banter, gossip and laughter. If you want to experience a touch of the genuine Valletta in comfort and quaintness, the Vincent is your ideal destination.

This boutique hotel is a stone’s throw from the magnificent St Elmo and the Sacra Inferia, with the sea just a few metres away. Restaurants, St. John’s Co-Cathedral, the Auberge de Castille, the bastion and Renzo Piano’s renowned entrance to Valletta in its majestic glory are all within walking distance.
