The Atrio features luscious wooden
elements, warm tones and rich textures
throughout, creating calm and casual
environment by day, and a relaxed, intimate
setting in the evening. The space showcases
expert joinery through the stunning bespoke
wine display and crafted wooden bar. The
use of varied furniture again allows guests
to clearly distinguish between the spaces.
Taro at The Villa Seafront Restaurant
Located on the seafront, separate from the
main hotel, The Villa has been designed
in continuity with the hotel but the overall
design is more traditional, as this is one of
the few villas left in Balluta Bay. Since the
hotel was built in the original villa gardens,
RPW decided to incorporate flora as the
main feature to showcase the outlet’s fine
dining experience.
THE MARKETPLACE
Located on the second floor, The
Marketplace is Malta Marriott’s main
restaurant. RPW Design has created a large
open space that is flooded with light. The
studio has continued to use slatted timber
detailing that can be seen throughout the
hotel, as well as soft upholstery, decorative
tiles, marble detailing and colourful
accessories to create a harmonious
atmosphere. The design allows the space
to be seamlessly adapted from a daily
breakfast venue into a lavish evening
restaurant, perfect for special occasions
throughout the year.
THE M CLUB LOUNGE
The M Club Lounge offers spectacular
views and the ideal space to work or relax.
RPW Design introduced a versatile range
of furniture to meet the ever-changing
needs of travellers. Soft lounge chairs and
sofas create an intimate setting for leisure
guests, whilst a large communal table with
integrated work space is the perfect spot for
business travellers to work.
RPW Design partner, Elizabeth Lane
explained: “It has been a privilege and
really exciting working with the team on
the renovation and rebranding of the hotel.
Inspired by the heritage of Balluta Bay we
have woven the traditional crafts of Malta
throughout the design in a contemporary
way thereby giving the hotel a real sense of
place while looking to the future. It will be an
ideal destination for business or leisure or a
combination of both.”
