You should certainly know what you are in for when you book this hotel. It is simple, old, somewhat tired with the furniture in the room showing quite a few signs of wear - to call that 'vintage' is a bit of a stretch for me. This was my second stay, when first here I tried breakfast once, this time... More

What a wonderful hotel. The decor is magically preserved, with wonderful vintage furniture and it was clean as a whistle. The staff were helpful and friendly. The views were exceptional and it was not overrun with the usual selection of overbearing and needy tourists (see reviews below!). It was perfect. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

This is a two star hotel that is run by a friendly helpful family,yes the accomodation is basic (you get what you pay for) but it was clean well serviced and in a fantastic location. I would... More

The Only thing positive about the hotel is it's location. It is a dump. The lobby and common areas were a mess, the elevator only worked some of the time and the 'manager' seemed not to care about anything, until we started talking about moving to a different hotel. Then magically, there was a way to get wireless (up until... More

We have stayed here many times, winter and summer. Close to all the sights, fabulous views & air conditioning is available, if you request & are willing to pay a very small fee! Staff are very helpful & we are looking forward to our return in August 2011. So much character in the Hotel, not sterile with no personality!!!!!!!!

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and have no complaints. The staff were helpful, the hotel was clean and comfortable and the views are spectacular. It must be remembered that this is one of the cheaper hotels in Valletta and is not 4 star. There is so much to see and do in this glorious city that to... More

Very friendly family run hotel. Amazing view of Grand Harbour from our room, dining room and roof garden. You could spend the all your time watching the boats going past if you wish. Valleta is a facinating 16th century world heritage site built by the knights templers. There are plenty of restaurants and bars near by to visit. As all... More
