beautifully restored house of character in a historical setting

We welcome you to No.16. This is a 500 year-old traditional 3 bedroom house of character which has been luxuriously restored to meet today's modern standards, yet retaining the abundant traditional features for guests to enjoy a unique experience. Property is accessed through a private entrance on a pedestrianised street. It is in a very good and quiet location, close to the main square (piazza), with several historical highlights easily reachable by foot together with many restaurants and cafeterias.
Property is licensed with the Malta tourism authority. Hpi7662
