Pros:

The hotel’s location was absolutely perfect. The harbor view from the window was stunning, and restaurants and bars were just a short walk away. The area felt very safe as well.

The room had an amazing view, was spacious enough, and exceptionally clean.

All of the front desk staff were extremely friendly and welcoming.

Superb location (solo traveller)
Pros:

As a solo traveller on foot the location is just superb, inside the historic city, easy walking distance to all the sites (NB Valetta is steep, wear walking shoes, do not bother with any other footwear!). Staff are brilliant, Maltese generally very friendly and happy people, my room was huge with a balcony overlooking the harbour, no complaints. Hotel is just above the pier which links to the three cities and the Gozo fast ferry, only a few minutes walk from the bus terminal for the airport (I got from my room to the airport and through security in 40 minutes using the €3 direct bus!). Hotel only does breakfast, simple but perfectly adequate, you will mostly eat out and Valetta is inexpensive with an extraordinary number of excellent eateries on the hotel doorstep and street food outlets sell a pasty/pizza cross over for less than €1 to keep you going in between! Spar shop nearby for snacks, drinks etc. English speaking, loads to see and do, thoroughly recommend.

Cons:

Ñoise from outside was a bit intrusive at times, these are old buildings in the historic city so not brilliantly noise insulated, but the area mostly goes quiet at 10.30/11 but comes awake by 7.30am....

Pros:

The location of the hotel is unbeatable, you're right next to the Grand Harbour and Upper Gardens. A plethora of places to eat ranging from cafes, bars to restaurants within a 10 minute walk. The hotel itself was clean, accessible, great value for money. The breakfast selection was nice and well organised. Would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who is interested in staying in Valletta.

Super pour un séjour près du Ferry.
Pros:

Proximité du port et du centre ville, charme désuet d’un hôtel à dimension humaine, chambres rénovées ou en cours.
Gentillesse du personnel et vue sur le port.

Cons:

Un petit bémol pour la literie, mais très acceptable.

アクシデントの救世主。助かりました。
Pros:

歴史があるホテルのようです。バレッタ市街地にあり目抜き通りまでは徒歩５分以内です。
ホテルから対岸の古い要塞などが見えます。
コンパクトですが清潔感あります。トラブルがあって１９時ごろ急遽予約しました。直前だったことも影響しているのでしょうか、価格についてはバレッタ市街地としては安価でお得なオファーだったと思います。

Cons:

特にありません。
