素晴らしい港の景色を一望できる好立地の 宿
Pros:

ヴァレッタのフェリー乗り場まで5分程度の好立地な上、港向きの部屋の窓や屋上から見える港の景色が素晴らしいです。部屋自体は、古い建物のため少し狭いです。

Cons:

備え付けアメニティはシャンプーと体洗い兼用ソープと手洗い石鹸位、トイレが詰まるからとティッシュペーパーも置いておらず、アメニティは最低限。資源節約のためには良いという見方もできますが。窓を開けていたら蚊が入ってきて初日は夜悩まされました。ただ、窓口に対応をお願いしたら蚊よけスプレーを撒いてくださり、残り3日は被害を免れました。

Hôtel correct pour y dormir une nuit. Pour 3 ou 4 nuits nous n’aurions pas eu l’impression de se sentir en vacances.
Pros:

La situation, le roof-top agréable avec une vue incroyable, petit déjeuner copieux.

Cons:

Les travaux avec un échafaudage devant la fenêtre qui fait qu’on a l’impression de dormir dans une chambre borgne, la salle de bain sans sac dans la poubelle, avec une savonnette usagée dans le porte-savon.

Stunning waterside location with balcony views.
Pros:

Perfectly located, on Valletta waterfront, in a handsome, historic building. We had opted for a room with a waterside view, and were delighted with the glass enclosed balcony, leading from our room. The stunning views of the water/boats, and the 3 ancient cities laid out before us were sublime. We even saw the sun rise over a morning cuppa. Exquisite.

Pros:

La Camera con vista mare è bellissima, con il tipico balcone "chiuso" di Malta, dal quale si può godere di una meravigliosa vista sul porto Grande e sulla città di Vittoriosa.
Ottima la colazione con una varietà di cibi e abbondante

Friendly hotel in a perfect position!
Pros:

Small and friendly hotel in a brilliant position. Simple breakfast included.
We received an upgrade to a lovely room (201) with a wraparound balcony. We loved watching the cruise ships arrive and leave.

Cons:

Lift wasn’t working when we first arrived. We didn’t realise it had been fixed and we were still using the stairs for 2 days 🤣

Excellent location with a few hiccups
Pros:

The location is great, the availability of the staff, modern and comfortable.

Cons:

Some of the staff seems like don't know about the complimentary services such as putting on hold our luggage for a few hours after our check out.
ALSO: an incident that shows the staff distrusts and projects an accusation of we taking some towels which is extremely petty & stupid from this guy.
Ok, he went to check & found it....
Unpleasant, since we were resting on the outside tables.
They need to be trained better.

Great location.
Pros:

Location was brilliant overlooking the water and one minute from the main walking street and ferry port.

Cons:

Could be a little noisy with the music nearby but not really a problem. A bit pricey but not used to Valletta hotel rates.

Déception
Pros:

Le personnel le petit déjeuner

Cons:

Hotel proche d'établissement bar et restaurant qui propose des animations musicales le soir tard orchestre jusqu'à 23h00 impossible de ce reposer.
L'ensemble du centre de la valette et devenu hyper bruyant, chaque bar et restaurant propose sa musique. C’est tres désagréable.

Gute Lage, freundliches Personal, Renovierungen könnten es zu einem wirklich guten Hotel machen.
Pros:

Zentrale Lage, Aussicht von der Dachterrasse, freundliches Personal, Frühstück ok.

Cons:

Dunkles Zimmer ohne jede Aussicht, vom Aufzug im 4. Stock sehr schmale und steile Treppe zum Zimmer (mit größerem Koffer kaum machbar), Badarmaturen defekt, warmes Wasser erst nach mehr als 5 Minuten Dauerbetrieb.

Great small hotel
Pros:

On the edge of the old town with excellent views over the harbour, very short walk to the hub of the old town and restaurants up a few steps. The high speed ferry to Gozo is only a few minutes walk. The staff were all very friendly and helpfull. Choice of cooked or continetal breakfast. Would recommend this hotel for a short to medium break.
