Map & location


St Julians, Malta and Gozo, Malta

St Julian’s is Malta’s classic “day-to-night” resort – golden sand at St George’s Bay, a seafront promenade lined with cafés, and the island’s liveliest nightlife quarter, Paceville, all within walking distance.

AC Hotel by Marriott St Julians sits in the heart of it all, close enough to stroll down to the bay for a swim, or up to the bars and restaurants once the sun dips. Sliema’s ferry port is just a short taxi or bus ride away, putting Valletta’s historic streets and harbour within easy reach for day trips.

  • Approx. transfer time from airport 35 minutes

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


Head up to the rooftop to discover the hotel’s statement feature: an outdoor freshwater pool with a surrounding sunbathing deck, complete with sunbeds and parasols. It’s an easy-going urban oasis where you can cool off between sightseeing or simply linger over a drink while you watch the city below. The pool is typically open from April to October, subject to weather and hotel discretion.

When you fancy the feel of sand underfoot, St George’s Bay – one of Malta’s main sandy beaches – is around 400m away. Here you’ll find a gently shelving bay, watersports (seasonal, run by local operators) and a promenade sprinkled with bars and cafés.

Spa, sports & wellness


Stay on top of your routine in the air-conditioned gym, equipped with cardio machines, a free weights area and a sauna for post-workout wind-down. Access is generally for guests 18+ and the facility is usually open from March until late October, though hours and dates can change with the season.

Beyond fitness, the hotel focuses on streamlined, city-hotel ease: contemporary lobby spaces, a helpful reception team for currency exchange and luggage storage, and thoughtfully designed social areas to work, read or relax with a drink between exploring St Julian’s and the wider island.
