KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Sliema

  • If you plan on using a car hire in Silema, you will be giving yourself the extra freedom to explore the city and the rest of the island of Malta. By using a car hire in Silema, you can choose where you go, when you go, and for how long you stay, without having to worry about the schedules for public transport. It is also easier for transporting your luggage to and from the airport and your accommodation. With a Silema car hire, you can visit the nearby beaches and towns at your own leisure.
  • Malta International Airport is the closest airport to Silema, and you will find a variety of established car hire companies available to choose from. Some of the more popular car hire companies available at the airport are Surprice Car Rental, Sixt, Hertz, Rhodium, and Malta First Car Hire. You can follow the signs to the car hire area of the airport, which is inside the main terminal building and beside the baggage reclaim area in Arrivals.
  • In Silema, you will need to drive on the left-hand side of the road, and you cannot turn left at a red light unless you have a filter light giving you clear permission to do so. Be careful as you drive around Silema, as pedestrians are prone to jaywalking, and even if they cross the road illegally, you will have a responsibility of care for their health and safety as you are behind the wheel of a vehicle.
  • The weather in Malta is generally the typical warm Mediterranean climate, and so we recommend that you check your vehicle before driving it to make sure that it is in the best conditions possible to give you full control. We recommend checking the tyre pressure and the coolant level so as to avoid any problems while out on the road. We also recommend avoiding the town centre as this is the area of Silema that has the most traffic, particularly during rush hour, which is before and after the traditional office hours.
  • Mini hire cars in Sliema are around 44% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What car is recommended for driving in Silema?

    If you plan on staying within the town limits of Silema, then we recommend that you use a compact or economy car hire in Silema, as these vehicles are the best for driving around the narrow streets of the town and are generally easier to park. If you would like to explore outside the town, and head to other parts of the island, then we recommend that you use an intermediate car or an SUV, as these vehicles are better designed for longer journeys or for any rugged terrain that you may encounter.

  • What is the speed limit in Silema?

    When you are driving in Silema, you must adhere to the speed limits of Malta. You can travel at 80 kmph (50 mph) on the highways, but you must drive at 50 kmph (30 kmph) in the urban areas. You may find that there are areas where the signposts indicate that you must driver slower, and these tend to be in residential areas or areas with schools or parks for children.

  • What are the best places to park in Silema?

    If you are looking to park your vehicle in a car park in Silema, then we recommend the Silema Multi-Storey Car Park, as it is open 24 hours a day, and you can find it at 126 High Street. Silema also has plenty of park and ride car parks to help you get around the city, or you may want to take advantage of the pay and display parking on streets. In general, parking on the streets of Silema is competitive, and can be expensive, but it may get you closer to your accommodation or destination.
