1st Day - Company visit: Windsor Hotel

-

As PCTO's first activity we visited the Windsor Hotel. 


The first stop was the reception where the staff showed us the reception room and the bar, then we went up to the various floors of the hotel where they showed us the emergency exits until the top floor where there was a balcony with three swimming pools and finally we went to the hotel restaurant “The Corner” where they showed us the room and the kitchen.



During the visit we also asked some questions like: “Which professional figures work here?” or “How many years has the hotel been in operation? and other questions about the tourist season.

It was interesting to learn about a service sector different from our field of studies which however we observed from a technical perspective.

The Knights of the Order of Malta were responsible for building these historic cities, and their influence is still visible in numerous buildings of the Three Cities. Senglea This city has managed to preserve its historical beauty despite the bombings suffered during World War II.

  We couldn't leave Malta without visiting one of the main "treasures" of the island: St John's Co-cathedral of Malta.                                            The conventual church built by the Order of the Knights of St John was completed in 1577, soon after the Great Siege. The Order dedicated this church to St John the Baptist.   It was also interesting to admire the wonderful works of Caravaggio.
