Situated in the heart of Rabat, this charming Mediterranean house offers a fascinating glimpse into the island’s rich history. During extensive research, it was
discovered that the lower level of the house dates back to medieval times, with its original structure built from rough-hewn stones. Over the centuries, the building has
undergone numerous upgrades, each layer adding its own unique character. The most striking feature of the house is the noticeable difference in the stone cuts and
positioning, revealing the evolution of the structure over time. The lower level’s medieval stones are carefully juxtaposed with more refined masonry from later periods, showcasing the progression of architectural styles and techniques.
As the house was passed down through generations, it was continuously modified to suit the needs of each era, yet its historical essence was preserved. Today, the house has been transformed into a beautiful holiday letting inn, blending its ancient charm with modern comforts. The spacious, airy interiors feature a seamless combination of old-world features and contemporary design, offering guests a unique experience where history meets luxury. This stunning inn invites visitors to step back in time while enjoying all the amenities of a modern retreat, making it the perfect place to stay while exploring the rich culture and heritage of Rabat and Malta.
