AC Hotel by Marriott St. Julian’s brings Marriott’s The Perfectly Precise Hotel experience to the vibrant coastal town of St. Julian’s on the Mediterranean island of Malta. Opened in May 2023, the new lifestyle hotel is located in the heart of town, within proximity to beaches, restaurants and the capital city of Valletta, making it the perfect base for exploring everything Malta has to offer.

The modern design is a blend of form and function. Sleek, elegant and simplistic, the traditional Maltese color scheme runs throughout public spaces and guestrooms. The color palette takes inspiration from the natural and urban environment around the hotel, incorporating neutral, calming colors and natural materials, evoking a strong sense of place and connection to its location.

In keeping with Malta’s exemplary food scene, AC Hotel by Marriott St. Julian’s features the AC Lounge on the rooftop terrace, a great place to unwind with a signature cocktail and European tapas along with views of St. Julian’s skyline. The creative cocktail menu features classics with a modern twist, including the signature AC Gin Tonic.
