Living in Valletta

Valletta is Malta's capital city and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is small, walkable, and full of character. A growing number of apartments are available for rent, though options are limited compared to Sliema.

Character & Vibe

Historic, compact, and architecturally striking. The streets are narrow and hilly. Valletta has undergone significant regeneration — new restaurants, bars, and cultural spaces have opened. It is quieter in the evenings than Sliema or St Julian's.

Transport & Getting Around

The main bus terminus is here — virtually all routes pass through Valletta. The Sliema ferry runs from the waterfront. Walking within Valletta is easy but hilly. Very limited parking.

Community & TCN Presence

Smaller expat community than Sliema but growing. Many government offices (including Identità Malta) are accessible from Valletta.
