Local Culture & Food
Guests hear fireworks from nearby festas and watch fishing boats dock along the harbor. Traditional Maltese meals like fenkata (rabbit stew) pair with local Cisk beer. The oldest bars in Valletta, where Bob Dylan tracks play on loop, serve as evening hangouts.
Historic Setting
Built into a 350-year-old townhouse, Casa Asti retains original stone staircases and walls. The reception area displays a Bohemian glass chandelier crafted by the late Mr. Galea. Uneven floors and no elevator underscore the building's age.
