Harbour Heights,
accommodation in Valletta
Harbour Heights is an exquisite place commanding the most incredible panoramic views of the Grand Harbour from its elevated position in a tranquil location in the UNESCO world heritage city centre of Valletta.
We have been in the property, hospitality and accommodation industry for the past 15 years. Our passion is to give our customers the best experience during their stay in Malta; whether visiting on holiday, long-letting or permanently living on the island.
The Story
Harbour Heights is a family-run guesthouse, opened in December 2019 by the Abela family. It boasts breathtaking views of Europe's most beautiful natural harbour, the Grand Harbour of Valletta, right from the suites’ bedrooms! In addition, the 300-year old building is beautifully located, right beside one of the most photographed landmarks in Valletta, the Saluting Battery and Upper Barrakka Gardens.
The property suffered damage during the Second World War and was rebuilt by celebrated Maltese mid-century artist Emvin Cremona to serve as his residence and studio, both of which have been luxuriously converted into separate suites.
Location
The property sits at the heart of Valletta’s harbour vantage point, on scenic ‘Battery Street’. Perched above the sea, our rooms, balconies and terraces are an oasis of peace and silence.
The area, although one of the busiest touristic spaces, enjoys quiet and serene surroundings and is brimming with many places of interest within walking distance. Malta's main bus terminus and Valletta's Republic Street are just an 8-minute walk. Taxi services or even a traditional carriage rides are easily found from just a 2-minute walk.
Neighbouring streets are narrow yet still accessible by car (mostly used by residents). One may also discover many boutique grocery shops, artisan bakeries, restaurants and café bars all around the area.
We look forward to your stay,
