Back to Developments
The skyscraper that is Mercury Towers features iconic design elegance at its heart and it is the product of an extraordinary legacy. Located in the business and entertainment hub of St Julian’s, the mind behind this creation is none other than the world-class and internationally renowned architectural firm of Zaha Hadid Architects. The finished project is a perfect a mix of historical and contemporary architecture. At its heart is the historic, 19-century heritage building Mercury House, flanked by a 33-storey residential tower that incorporates a luxury 5-star hotel operated by Melia Hotels International.
Mercury Towers boast breathtaking 360 degree views of the island and is currently Malta’s tallest building. Its unique design delivers a twist on conventional architecture and it has become a national landmark, housing 262 state-of-the-art residences, where owners have the option of having their properties managed by Melia Hotels.
The Mercury Suites
If you want something truly exclusive and impeccable by design, then The Mercury Suites are for you. Designed to blend organically with the flowing lines of the neighbouring Mercury Towers, The Mercury Suites are wrapped in glass terraces and homes here combine warmth and light and are finished to the highest of standards.
Units at the Mercury Towers and Mercury Suites are both designed for the select few who can truly appreciate the use of light, space and design and it is a project Frank Salt Real Estate is truly proud to represent.
The mixed-use development is complemented with an array of luxury amenities that include access to a spacious outdoor swimming pool, a dedicated 24-conceirge service, on-site security, cleaning and maintenance. A quiet retreat can be found at the garden rooftop, as well as an array of other retail and dining outlets.
There are also optional extras available to enhance your living experience here: from valet parking to room service, childcare services, an underground spa, a state-of-the-art fitness centre, conference facilities and even waste collection services. Whether residents are walking through The Square, relaxing in the spa vaults or sipping cocktails at the rooftop bar, living here will always feel like home.
Underground, you’ll find an extraordinary limestone spa set in a post-WWII telecommunications hub and this has been immaculately refurbished. Designed as a space to relax and recharge, the spa adds a perfectly luxurious destination for personal wellbeing. Residents and visitors can enjoy a wide array of exquisite on-site luxury amenities, including an ultra-modern gym and outdoor running track with incredible views at roof level and five swimming pools – with both indoor and outdoor options to choose from.
Special Designated Area Status
Mercury Suites enjoy Special Designated Area status, meaning that foreign investors, whether they are EU or Non-EU, can purchase as many units as they want without the need for an AIP (Acquisition of Immovable Property) permit. Due to this special status, the units can also be rented out immediately without any restrictions.
