Casa Ellul

Converted from a townhouse that was a family home for five generations, Casa Ellul is one of Valletta's loveliest boutique hotels with nine beautifully designed rooms. Features include freestanding bath-tubs on the traditional Maltese balconies, and jacuzzis on terraces in two of the top-floor rooms. Older children only. Downstairs is the temptation of one of Valletta's best fine-dining restaurants.
