Arriving in Valletta
Valletta is a sixteenth-century fortress city built by the Knights of St John on a peninsula between two harbours — a UNESCO site where the entire grid sits inside the bastion walls.
Vehicle access within the walls is restricted and much of the centre is pedestrian, with steep stepped streets running down to the water. Cars drop at City Gate or the nearest permitted street to your address.
Boutique hotels and townhouse conversions here rarely have parking, which is why almost everyone arrives by car and leaves it behind.
