Hanging right on the bastions, this quaint studio heritage home is at street level with seaviews opposite St Angelo’s Fortifications and the Grand Harbour. It is in a serene location but in central Valletta, close to the Bus terminus, shops and Valletta’s historic monuments and culture centres: Traditional vaulted ceilings, a reading pod with street and sea views plus all the modern amenities thrown in. Work smart, play hard, rest easy, the savynomad way.

This quaint 30 square metre accomodation comes with what you need to relax or to be productive: A table that doubles as a working desk with blazing speed internet access, wired ethernet, USB charging points and universal sockets that keep you productive: Ideal for Digital Nomads. A well equipped kitchen inclusive of washer-dryer for longer term accomodation, espresso machine, toaster, microwave and oven, hob, ironing facilities, air conditioning, high pressure shower, double bed, plush 2-person sofa, 43 inch TV with the possibility to access your Netflix subscription and other channels, etc. Plus your reading nook to sit back and watch the world go by: people, ships, cars, cruiseliners and boats. The best thing to do at Savynomad is to wake up to the spectacular sunrise, grab an espresso from the kitchen and enjoy.
GUEST ACCESS: This Savynomad Suite is easily accessible with a few steps down from St Anthony Street (Triq Sant Anton). Free non-metered street parking lies in front of the accomodation. A parking area is 50 meters up the street. During weekdays 8am and 3pm, parking just in front of the accomodation can be a challenge.
OTHER NOTABLE DETAILS: The property has just been completely refurbished but all the original heritage features have been kept and painstakingly restored. Beautiful stone arches. Lovely honey-coloured Maltese limestone. Although at street level the accomodation offers good privacy with double glazing in windows and reflective glass.
Due to the porous nature of Maltese globigerina limestone and the way these buildings were constructed hundreds of years ago, the honey-coloured stone walls tend to flake a little. Through the stay expect to see some tiny flakes here and there. It’s part of the experience of living in an authentic Maltese townhouse in Valletta.
It is also good for guests to know that this home is a restored historic 500 year old building that shows the traditional Maltese architecture and the beauty of the exposed Maltese stone and vaulted ceilings. To curate the building even more and preserve its original authentic features, we’ve also installed dehumidification equipment. This also allows the guest to choose the level of dryness or humidity she or he wishes or to switch it off completely.
NEIGHBOURHOOD: Typical Maltese neighborhood. Lovely helpful people and the bustle of Valletta is only a stone’s throw away. The street is a dead end so you get the best of both worlds. This 30m2 apartment is literally sitting on top of a Valletta bastion with seaviews at street level. 50 metres down the road you will find lovely bars and restaurants. There is unmetered street parking spaces in front of the accomodation. The place has its own washer-dryer but there is also self-service laundry nearby as well as luggage holding facilities at City Gate. A lovely rocky beach is also available within walking distance.
GETTING AROUND: You don’t need a car if you are staying here. You can easily walk to all of the many restaurants, bars, nightclubs, entertainment spots. All the Valletta cultural and historic centres are within 5 to 15 minute walking distance. The central bus station to reach any location in Malta is only a 5 minute walk away. Quiet but central.
