HV Hospitality, the hospitality subsidiary of Hili Ventures, has acknowledged the press conference conducted by Moviment Graffiti this morning.

Seven organisations gathered in front of Hili Group’s headquarters in Marsa to “remind the company that this is a hugely unpopular project, with a record 13,500+ objections submitted to the Planning Authority.”

The organisations also reiterated their objections to the project called for its withdrawal.

HV Hospitality said that these photos and renders comparing the existing building with the proposed designs should clarify some “misconceptions about the project.”

The company stated that “this is a redevelopment project that focuses on rebuilding the hotel and bungalows situated in Comino since the 1960s, which are currently in a state of disrepair.”“The new development seeks to create a top-quality sustainable tourism offering that meets the latest requirements and standards,” it said.

The project has undergone extensive studies and analysis, and the outcome is a highly thoughtful and balanced approach that reduces the built footprint and reinstates parts of the built foreshore,” the company said.

HV Hospitality concluded by saying that it is “committed to remaining honest and transparent throughout the planning process and welcomes discussions with all stakeholders, as it has always done.”

The organisations that took place in the press conference on Saturday morning are: Moviment Graffitti, BirdLife Malta, Din l-Art Helwa, Flimkien Ghal Ambjent Ahjar, Friends of the Earth Malta, Nature Trust – FEE Malta and Ramblers Association Malta.
