Enjoying the stunning St Barbara Bastion views of the Grand Harbour, Iniala opened its doors in 2020 and instantly became a jewel worthy of the UNESCO World Heritage site that is Malta’s capital city.

The Hilton boasts one of Malta’s most majestic spas and is perfectly located for business travel.
