Conveniently located in the center of Sliema and 656 feet from the ferry harbor, Two Pillows Boutique Hostel is less than a 10-minute walk from Sliema's Tower Road beach.

Amazing place to stay, the common areas are great, the spa is definitely an added value, functional rooms and really kind staff.

Just 656 feet from Sliema Beach, the Corner Hostel is a renovated Maltese townhouse offering a communal kitchen, and rooms and dormitories with a telephone and ceiling fan.

Great staff in a good location with great staff. The kitchen area was big and good for a longer stay, rooms had good lockers and bathroom in the room.

Set 1148 feet from Sliema’s seafront, on the island of Malta, Granny's Inn Hostel offers 2 shared terraces, a roof-top area and free Wi-Fi throughout.

Cozy and inexpensive hostel in Silema. The rooms are not big, just 6-8 people, and provide all the facilities. There's a nice rooftop.

Set on the island of Malta, Hostel 94 is located in Sliema. Guests can leave their belongings into the lockers and relax in the shared lounge area.

The hostel itself was very decent, simple and in a great location - it provided exactly what I needed for the purpose of the travel. The hostel provided the same for others; which is something I find appreciable, without discrimination and making space for lives

At follow the Sun boutique hostel - formerly inhawi hostel - it’s not just about where you sleep—it’s about where you hang out, make connections, and create memories.

Breakfast was tasty. Not huge variety but really nice.

Walter's B&B is located in Il-Gżira, 0.6 mi from University of Malta. The accommodations provides a shared kitchen and free WiFi. At the hostel, all rooms come with a wardrobe.

I enjoyed my stay in Walter's B and B. The hostel was clean and well maintained (I believe the no outdoor shoes policy is a contributing factor as well). Mark, who received me, was especially helpful with info on getting out and about. He even sent me a sample itinerary. With your stay here, you need not worry about access to the town and other locations as it is located close to the bus stops. There are also restaurants and grocery shops nearby if you want to get things to make a quick meal in the kitchen. There is however a €2 fee (I think it's an environmental fee) which wasn't mentioned in the ad so you may want to bear this in mind. In all, I enjoyed my time there and would recommend it to anyone who is travelling on a budget.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The property felt really safe and was in a great location. Overall we were really happy with our stay. The property was really clean and had a great feel about it. Would stay here again and the points below weren’t really big issues for me and my friend but rather just note them down so the hostel is aware.

    Everything was clean, the room was pretty quiet, there are 3 toilets, one im the room, the other two in the common area, and two bathrooms. Kitchen and leisure rooms were quite nice and there were loads of dishes. Beach is nearby as well as the stores. And there is a very cheap bakery just above the hostel. Guests are really quiet. Use the jacuzzi, it is cool! The staff was really really nice and helpful! Would recommend!

    Best hostel I've visited in a long time, special mention for Juan who made the stay such a pleasure with his kindness, dedication to his work and his willingness to go the extra mile to help.

    Great location to visit Valletta by uber - very cheap. Beautiful coastal location so you can enjoy great restaurants and swimming along a gorgeous stretch of coast. Can uber in and out of Valletta whilst enjoying the coastal feel. Easy to bus to the ferry to visit the blue lagoon independently and cheaply compared to a tour.

    I like old stilish building, nice terasse at rooftop In winter time can be pretty empty hostel , quiet, but also cold inside, bcs there in dormitory not heating. There is elevator . From bus stop 300m. Beach side also 300 m from hostel. Street can be quiet. But also over night can be loud from street. Price for low budget.

    This is by far the best Hostel I've ever been to: pretty cheap, but excellent services. Nice, comfortable and clean rooms, an amzin living room and kitchen, forthcoming staff etc... I'm still a little incredulous because it exceeded my expectations that were shaped by other hostels that aren't as good as this
