Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomUnfortunately the hotel was let down by the quality of the cooking at breakfast. It's said you can judge a chef by how well they can cook an egg. Of the 7 breakfasts we had here 5 were a disaster when it came to eggs. The scrambled eggs were obviously from a packet which unfortunately seems to be the trend in some hotels now. The Fried, Boiled and Omlette eggs (which changed each day) were always overcooked even though we were one of the first to arrive at breakfast. (except for two occasions).
Good central location with easy parking nearby. Rooms were a good size and furnishings were bright and modern.

United KingdomElectrics blew on our first afternoon and we had to move rooms. We’d paid for an upgrade but rooms although clean and comfy bed the rooms are very tired. The floor in our second bedroom had been patched up quite badly. There were damp towels on all windowsills which were removed after we requested. 3 times somebody walked into our room whilst we were in it. Twice without knocking the third time the maintenance man who was checking electric knocked but didn’t wait for us to open door. My husband was naked in the bathroom when another maintenance guy tried to walk in. We were given a complimentary bottle of wine and no corkscrew and told we would have to go downstairs to the bar to get it decorked. Apart from one front of desk man everyone else we found very miserable and unhelpful.
It’s location was very good for getting transport and sightseeing

I didnt have this experience in any other hotel!
The location is great in Valleta just a couple of steps from all the museums and historical places. The breakfast is good.

BelgiumThe room was not that clean (I saw many times bugs that were not meant to be there). I had issues about the booking of breakfast (I always do book breakfasts whenever available) but it appeared that it was not included. The way the staff held that from the reception was not very client-friendly. I guess she thought I was trying to get something for free, which was not what I was looking for. It is the very first time I have this kind of issue.
It was my second stay at this hotel. The location is so good. You are just near the commercial street of La Valetta and near the bus terminal. Everything is really close and accessible. Some of the staff members are really nice and kind (especially the night staff upon my arrival and Mr Saviour).

United KingdomThe breakfast had lots of choices but was very poorly cooked and greasy. The eggs were horrid and the food was really low quality and cheap. There is plenty of it but it is very processed and bad. We had some troubles with the room: coffee maker, poor water pressure, inflexible check out time, and the pool was closed early and that wasn't fair since we couldn't use it.
The location was ideal. A fabulous street just outside of the noise and bustle of the main areas of Valetta. There is a hidden gem of a parking lot right down the street which was a very useful find!

United KingdomRoom 307 which I was given is the worst one in the hotel, it does not have normal windows as it has like an indoor extension - which they call a balcony but is more like a a cellar - and you can not fully open the windows for fresh air and cool out the room plus there are two very dangerously steep steps in order for you to get to the window. I asked to change rooms but was told there was nothing else available and it is very unfair to be paying the same money and not get a proper window in the room.
Location was excellent and value for money. Friendly staff also. Very decent hotel and if it was not for the room I was given my review would have been much better.

JapanThe air conditioning was a bit difficult to adjust. It seemed a bit pricey for an old building.
This hotel was conveniently located in the center of Valletta, and could be reached on a flat road from the bus terminal. The view from the balcony was amazing, and the breakfast was delicious. I don't speak much English, but all the staff were kind and helpful. The pizzeria opposite the hotel was very delicious.
