Hyatt has announced the opening of Hyatt Centric Malta, which will be the brand’s debut in the European country.

Ideal island location

The property will be the seventh Hyatt Centric in Europe and will be located in the heart of St. Julian’s, Malta’s bustling resort town. 

The 170-key hotel will connect guests to a central location close to three unique UNESCO World Heritage sites. It’s also a launchpad for travellers wanting to explore nearby dive sites, such as the Blue Hole and Blue Lagoon.

“The opening of Hyatt Centric Malta is an important addition to the fast-growing Hyatt Centric brand, joining six existing European properties, as we further strengthen our lifestyle and leisure portfolio in Europe,” said Michel Morauw, Managing Director, EAME North, Hyatt. 

“We are delighted to unlock opportunities for adventurous travellers to explore this thriving destination.”

There will also be a restaurant, rooftop and indoor pools, treatment rooms, a hot tub and a Finnish sauna. In addition, an extensive gym will also be included onsite. 

For a smaller reception, business lunch or dinner, Hyatt Centric Malta has a dedicated 1,808 square feet of event space including three meeting rooms.

The move reflects Hyatt’s dedication to Mediterranean countries, with a portfolio in the region spanning 13 different brands and over 80 properties.

“We are thrilled to welcome guests to the first Hyatt Centric hotel in Malta, in the beautiful town of St. Julian’s,” said Andrea Farrugia, hotel manager, Hyatt Centric Malta. 

“The hotel creates an engaging guest experience that not only captures the essence of Malta but also offers savvy travellers a wealth of culture and historical experiences on their doorstep.”
