Location is only 15 minutes away from valletta, 2 euros single bus fare, overall good value for money, i enjoyed my stay and would probably stay again.

Set in Valletta, 66 Saint Paul's & Spa is a 2-minute walk from University of Malta - Valletta Campus and provides a terrace, spa and a summer outdoor pool with city views.

We were lucky to book a "city view" room, so we had a window overlooking the street. Some of the rooms are internal and the only natural light is from the atrium. That said the street can be noisy in the evening and morning.

Offering quiet street views, South Wind Guesthouse is an accommodation situated in Marsaxlokk, 700 metres from Il-Ballut Reserve Beach and less than 1 km from Qrajten Beach.

We’ve been here before, great location for walking or just using it as a base. Very friendly staff, breakfast was excellent, rooms are very spacious. A must see is the Sunday market.

Centrally located in Cospicua, BOCO Boutique Hotel is a 5-minute walk from the port. This property offers free WiFi throughout, views of the Grand Harbour and Valletta, and rooms with air...

For a city hotel it was lovely. The staff were so friendly and gave us so many tips. One to share as part of the review is get the ferry just down the key side to Valletta but keep your ticket so you can use the lift on the other side.

Offering quiet street views, Central Suites St. Julian's is an accommodation set in St Julian's, 1.2 km from Exiles Beach and 1.6 km from Fond Ghadir Beach.

From the moment of booking confirmation to check-out the communication with the host, Serena, has been brilliant. She is proactive and communicates with you how to get to the apartment as well as any concerns or recommendations we had during our stay. The room itself is very clean and cozy with a kitchenette being a plus. Locations is perfect for us as it is like in between St. Julian and Sliema with nearby bus stops just 7-10 mins walk. The only minor issue was just the WiFi being a bit temperamental one night while watching TV but apart from that everything from our stay was exemplary.

East Sliema Suites has a balcony and is situated in Sliema, within just 500 metres of Qui-Si-Sana Beach and 800 metres of Fond Ghadir Beach.

The location is perfect — right in the city centre of Sliema, just a 3-minute walk from restaurants, boats, and buses. The place was spotlessly clean, the bed extremely comfortable, and the staff were kind and very helpful. It had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Highly recommended.

Located within 600 metres of Qui-Si-Sana Beach and less than 1 km of Fond Ghadir Beach in Sliema, Tinja Bnb provides accommodation with seating area and a kitchen.

Perfect location for transport links, airport bus and ferry terminal at the bottom of the road. Hosts were easily available, but it felt like we had the place to ourselves, with easy access via code entry to building and room sent by hosts on day of arrival. Lovely to sit and have our breakfast in the beautiful kitchen/lounge area whenever we wanted to get up. Mini fridge in room to keep milk, juices and essentials cold. Stunning building, full of charm.

Location was perfect. In the middle of everything, couldn’t have been better. The cafe below is a godsend, with the most perfect lemonade! All staff are fantastic, pleasant and really accommodating and helpful.

    Nice and quiet apartment, the host's service was very good, the apartment clean and the kitchen well equipped with all necessities. I found the bed very hard, but that's perhaps also a matter of taste.

    The apartment is spacious, clean and comfortable to relax. The instructions on how to find the apartment and get the keys were clear. The location is quiet and convenient for reaching the airport and other parts of the island. There was everything that we needed for our stay. Paul was a very considerate host and went out of his way to accommodate us. I can definitely recommend staying there.

    Nice, large, clean and lovely rooms. Great roof top as well as the inner courtyard. Lovely host. Surrounding quiet, makes sleeping at night easy. Breakfast great served on cute plates/cups/bowls/ ... with many options to choose from, even typical Maltese snacks. A tip for the future, maybe let people chose beforehand what they would like to have for breakfast, so no food is wasted.

    We felt the guesthouse was comfortable, friendly and welcoming. It felt like the real Malta, quiet and well ordered whilst obviously close knit. The owners were generous and incredibly helpful. The balcony was great too.

    Beautiful interior. Honestly so picturesque! Great location, close to everything and the airport but still quiet and out the way. Amazing owner. Only wished I’d stayed longer. Also the floral balcony was something special (Room at front of accommodation)

    The host is a great person. Super attentive to details. The apartment is big, big bedroom, big kitchen, and all new. Best choice possible. The area is super quiet. Perfect for people coming for business.

    The surprise you received each time you turned a corner or stepped through a doorway in this most beautifully restored 300 year old building. This made you feel like you had stepped back in time. It was an excellent nostalgic stay with a touch of class and hospitable hosts. We highly recommend this guesthouse for young couples.

    Beautiful, small B & B located in a quiet suburb. Tastefully decorated with the added bonus of a couple of hot tubs! Ideally situated near to well connected bus stops to travel around Malta as well being ideally located for early morning airport transfers. Marion, the host was very accommodating and helpful in suggesting places to visit/local knowledge. The breakfast was lovely too. Would definitely recommend :)
