What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
In Senglea’s old town, The Snop House is a 6-room guesthouse set in a limestone building rebuilt after the Second World War.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Victory Street runs along Senglea's ridge, a short walk from waterfront dining and the harbor ferry to Valletta.
The rooms
Front rooms look over the square through enclosed wooden balconies, and bathrooms are finished in local limestone.
At the table
Woven bistro chairs fill the open-air courtyard, where breakfast brings warm qassatat and crusty Maltese bread.
