My recommendations😍 Everything was wonderful and incredible. But keep in mind that the terraces are private. And you won't be able to get to them if you haven't booked the appropriate room. If you go out the door you will find the noisiest street 😍 but the windows face the other direction so it's not noisy in the room.

Unbearable sound of music in the evening, the lack of normal light for the reading in the room

I have mixed feelings about location - it is in the very center, thus very convenient, but at the same time in the street with the loudest music in the evening time. Good breakfast, very stylish and nice room with very nice balcony and its view to the street. The staff in hotel is very helpful and nice.

Nothing, but the spiral staircase could be a challenge to some if needing to get up in the night. Would have preferred a king size bed.

The location was excellent, Charlie and Dorothy were great hosts and the breakfast was amazing. From the terrace we had fabulous views of the harbour.

The photos give an impression of an roof terrace, which is not there, it must just be for the suits on the top floor.

Loved the room. It was so full of character and had everything I needed. The scrolls with the info about Malta each night with a sweet treat was a lovely touch. The breakfast had a wode ramge to offer and was very tasty. Staff were lovely and very helpful. The location was second to none, and my room was surprisingly quiet, considering its location close to bars and restaurants. I would stay again and definitely recommend!

The bed was smaller than we are used to but the room could not accommodate a larger one. Lighting could also have been better. For the less fit and mobile, the suite could be challenging

The guest house is quirky, Our 'suite; was Lucretia which is over 4 floors connected by a spiral staircase! The two terraces are excellent but having the bathroom on a different floor was challenging. What makes the property special are the hosts/owners, Charles and Dorothy, who could not have been more welcoming, friendly and helpful. The location on a lively walking street close to Valletta; main attractions is a real bonus. The view over the 3 cities from the top terrace is spectacular

Breakfast was delicious and homemade, offering plenty of options. However, it was the same every day. Perhaps I'm being too picky, but I enjoy surprises and variety.

I appreciated the hostel's distinctiveness. It was adorned with unique art and meticulous attention to detail. The palazzo, a historical building, retained its original style while incorporating modern elements where necessary.

The penthouse does have a spiral staircase for its three floors. For some, that may be troublesome. But not a problem for us. The bed was also a double, which may be small for some. But, again, not a problem for us. The only problem for us was the street music at night. We are early to bed sight seeing older folk. But, if I came again, I’d just bring ear plugs and that would sort it! Can’t say this small issue would stop me returning again. Hotel is great .

Fantastic quaint and quirky boutique hotel in a great location in the heart of Valletta. Hotel owners and staff were excellent too; very helpful with every request. Breakfast has lots of choices from frittata to cereals and pastries. As others have commented, there isn’t eggs or toast made to order but everything on offer is fresh or home cooked. Lots of fresh fruit every day and different cheeses. Owner also makes wonderful home made chutneys. Rooms and decor are very unique! We had the penthouse and loved the views across the harbour. Also loved two showers in the room. A real time saver in the morning. Owners very kindly let us stay longer in the room on day of check out as we had a late flight back to UK. Fantastic week’s stay for our first trip to Malta. Would definitely return.

I had a slight issue with a leaky air conditioning unit the last night i stayed at lucente which was addressed

This lovely boutique hotel is perfectly located in Valletta. I was worried about street noise but my room was so quiet and amazing. Lots of nice little touches. Would love to travel here again!

we have loved the location, the friendly and very accommodating staff. We loved the little bed time stories, and the fresh flowers every day. Overall a great experience! Highly recommended.

Residence on a pedestrian street. We had a hard time finding it as the BOLT taxi driver let us off quite far away. There was a closer drop off point that we used once we found it. Better instruction from host would alleviated that.

Location in the center. Interesting decoration in common areas and room. elevator

Slightly cramped breakfast room.

Perfect location. Really in the hub of evening entertainment and dining. Atmosphere around the street is fabulous. All the staff were very friendly especially the young lady in the ceramic shop.

The hotel is in the heart of the action which means that if you're in a room facing the street it is very noisy until very late. Although the hotel description says there is 'soundproofing', it is not very effective! Breakfast is quite good but if you get there towards the end of service the choice is limited.

The location was fantastic, in the heart of Valletta, with many bars and restaurants nearby. The room was uniquely decorated, with some antique furniture. The staff are very friendly.

I like the concept and styling of the bed, but unfortunately bed is too small. Me and my wife slept whole night in the sam position, because we were afraid if we move someone of us will be kicked from the bed hehe. Upgrade the bed, it should be much bigger, there is enough room to put.

Very nice boutique style of the hotel in the middle of one of the busiest street in this part of the Valletta. I have stayed in huge suita; the room was very spacious. Room was clean; very hot shower; good aircon; coffee machine was there as well. Room is facing the street; you can here some music in evening, for me it was great; i really felt the vibe of the city. Breakfast is little bit different than you get in most of the hotels - there is no bacon or eggs, but you have options such us: home made quiche and pies; cornflakes; fresh cheese and ham; yogurt and butter; jam; salad. Anyway if you wanna English breakfast; scrambled or sunnyside or egg Benedicts there is so many brunch and breakfast places around the hotel. The same for lunch and dinner - a lot of options. Spar grocery minimarket is 3min of walk away. Staff is super nice, helpful and polite. Definitely I can recommend this place.
