Das Eigentum — Sliema Studios
Sliema Studios is a 3-star hotel that exudes a relaxed, boutique feel. Its modern, minimalist aesthetic is tempered by the warm, welcoming staff who know the area intimately. This is a great choice for couples and solo travellers looking for a comfortable, easy base to explore Malta's capital city, Valletta, and the vibrant waterfront promenade. The compact studios are well-appointed, with kitchenettes and balconies offering sea views or glimpses of the adjacent park.
Chroniken von Sliema
Sliema has a long history dating back to the 19th century, when it was a popular resort town for the wealthy elite. The area's strategic location on the Great Fault Line, a fault that splits the island of Malta in two, made it an attractive spot for British and French settlers. The town's architecture reflects this history, with a mix of Victorian-era villas, Art Deco buildings, and modern high-rise developments. Today, Sliema is a bustling commercial and residential area, with a strong sense of community and a thriving cultural scene.

May and June are ideal for good weather and manageable crowds, with average highs of 23°C and minimal rainfall. July is also pleasant, but it's the start of the peak tourist season, so expect larger crowds and higher prices. September is another good option, with warm weather and fewer tourists, making it a great time to explore without the crowds.
Peak / Festival Surge
August is the peak month, driven by the Malta International Arts Festival and the Isle of MTV concert, which draws big crowds. Hotel prices surge during this time, and you can expect long queues at popular attractions. If you're looking for a lively atmosphere, August is the time to be in Sliema.
Budget Schulter Saison
April and November are great budget-friendly options, with mild weather and fewer tourists. You can find discounts on accommodations, and the area's restaurants and cafes are less busy, making it easier to find a table. Just be aware that some attractions and businesses might be closed or operate on reduced hours during these periods.
Wetter & Verpackung
Malta's climate is known for its strong sunlight, so pack sunscreen and a hat to protect yourself. It's also a good idea to bring a lightweight rain jacket, as short, intense showers can pop up during the summer months.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Sliema Studios, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request higher floors — 4th or 5th — facing away from Triq in-Nazzarenu. These will catch cross-breezes off the sea and dodge most street noise, while the lift can get busy at lower levels.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms on the 1st or 2nd floor, particularly those at the front overlooking the main street. That stretch of Triq in-Nazzarenu carries local traffic and footfall, plus the lift motor and ground-floor lobby hum will be more audible.
Best views
With no sea frontage given, the best view is probably a side-angle glimpse of the Sliema promenade or Valletta from a high floor, north-facing window. Avoid rooms looking directly onto Triq in-Nazzarenu at low level.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 to 5 are best. Above the lift mechanism and far enough from street level to reduce traffic rumble. Ask for a side wing if the hotel has one — likely quieter than central-facing rooms.
🔊 Noise notes
Triq in-Nazzarenu is a main Sliema artery with buses, motorbikes, and delivery vans from early morning until late evening. The hotel’s narrow street bend amplifies engine noise. Windows may be double-glazed but not soundproof.
Insider tips
1) Use the side alley entrance to unload luggage — saves wrestling bags through the main lobby. 2) Check-in early (after 2pm) to secure a higher floor; the reception won’t hold a specific room unless you call ahead. 3) If you’re driving, ask about the nearest public car park (Sliema Ferries or Tigné) — this hotel likely has no on-site parking.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top-Attraktionen in Sliema
💡 Go early – before 10am for the best selection of fresh fruit and vegetables. Bring small change. Cash only at most stalls.
💡 Visit just after 9am on a weekday to avoid crowds. The interior lighting is best in the morning for photos of the altar and ceiling frescoes.
💡 Head to the far end past the shopping centre for the quietest spot with benches. Great for a picnic with uninterrupted views of Valletta's fortifications.
💡 The fort's outer bastions are open to the public. Walk around the perimeter for the best angles and to see the original gun emplacements. No entrance fee even when interior is closed.
💡 Start at Tigné Point just before sunset and walk north. You'll catch the sun setting over Valletta, and the breeze keeps it cool even in summer.
