Palazzo Parisio

15/10/2026

Placing the patron and their family within the sweep of history is an established tradition in Italian palace painting. Carlo Sada observed it faithfully at Palazzo Parisio.

On the landing of the piano nobile, he and Filippo Venuti laid out an allegory of Malta's entire history: people arriving in waves, from the Phoenicians through to independence in 1964, with Malta herself at the centre gazing toward a soldier who gestures out to sea.

The ships in the harbour below were modelled on the actual Scicluna fleet; around the edges, smaller panels celebrate the rise of the steamship - the Marquis's other great preoccupation, tucked into the margins.

He commissioned a history of a nation and found room in it for everything he loved.

Two glasses, one toast, and a lunch that hits the spot. The bougainvillea overhead have been eavesdropping on garden lunches for years and still haven't told a soul.

Come raise a glass under them yourself.

Gin & Jam has gone on its winter holidays, leaving us with a few hundred happy memories and a suspiciously well-polished dance floor.

A big thank you to everyone who played for us this season: Kevin Paul Red Electric The Crowns Matthew James Kayati Nick Barrett Music The Honeymakers MomoRush, and Gianni & Paps.

The bar and restaurant stay open all year, and there’s always something new on the palace calendar to keep you busy until the bands return next summer. Come and see what’s on.

Some guests dress for dinner, and this one arrived in gold glitter. Dogs have always been part of the family at Palazzo Parisio. It felt only right to pull up a chair for them at the table.

Their new menu comes from PET BRUV, a veterinary nutritionist who uses 100% human-grade ingredients in every dish.

Arms permanently full of flowers they never get to put down, the stone figures flanking that door have witnessed more ceremonies than anyone could count. Today we added one more to their tally.

Somewhere in the palace a scale is always being practised, badly or beautifully, and someone small is always listening from behind a pillar. That's rather the whole point of the place.

Wander in and find your own doorway to listen from.
