About the Hotel
Rooms & Amenities
Casa Asti offers nine rooms, including twin, double, and family options. Each room has soundproof walls, air conditioning, and premium bedding. Some rooms feature balconies with quiet street views, while others include traditional gallerijas overlooking the sidewalk. Guests find tea and coffee makers, electric kettles, and private bathrooms with showers. Family rooms accommodate up to three beds and include kitchenettes with microwaves and refrigerators.
Neighborhood & Transport
Located on a steep Valletta street, Casa Asti is a 10-minute walk from Malta International Airport. Nearby landmarks include Upper Barrakka Gardens (500m), Valletta Waterfront (300m), and the National Museum of Archaeology (300m). The Manoel Theatre and Casa Rocca Piccola are also within walking distance. Bus routes pass close by, connecting to Rock Beach (1.1km) and MedAsia Beach (1.6km).
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.
