Excellent choice for your stay at the heart of Valletta
Pros:

The Barrister is located conveniently in the heart of Valletta, close to all attractions. The staff was great and accommodating at all times, breakfast was lovely (avocados, boiled eggs, ham, cheese, sweet pastries, cereals, fruit, etc.) and sufficient for easy start of the day. We were provided with various hotel amenities, with even bath robes available upon request. All in all, excellent choice and great value.

Cons:

The air condition is set to 23°C and cannot be increased. We stayed in April so the room temperature was on the colder side. In any case this wasn’t a big problem for us.

η διαμονή ήταν ωραία και απόλαυσα την Μαλτα παρόλο που ο χρόνος μου ηταν περιορισμένος λόγω δουλειάς
Pros:

η τοποθεσία ήταν εξαιρετική, μέσα στην Βαλέτα, κοντά σε όλα τα αξιοθέατα.
στο ξενοδοχείο διέθεταν μέσα στο δωμάτιο, σνακς, νερό και αναψυκτικά και μπορούσες να πιείς καφέ και τσαι που ήταν πολύ βολικό αυτό, και γενικά εκτίμησα ότι κάθε μέρα φρόντιζαν να ανανεώνουν το στοκ. Το δωμάτιο ήταν ανακαινισμένο και το μπάνιο πολύ καθαρό και εξοπλισμένο. Το προσωπικό ήταν ευγενικό και μου παρείχαν και έναν apaptor για να φορτίσω το κινητό μου γιατί δεν είχα.

Cons:

το προσωπικό ήταν εξυπηρετικό, το πρωινό ήταν καλό, αλλά όχι εξαιρετικό, θα μπορούσε να έχει περισσότερο ποικιλία μαγειρευμένων φαγητών όπως ομελέτα, αυγά τηγανιτά κλπ. το δωμάτιο είναι μικρό και σχετικά σκοτεινό, αφού βλέπει μπροστά σε ένα στενό δρομάκι. Θεωρώ ότι το ξενοδοχείο είναι ακριβό για αυτά που προσφέρει

Very well located, nice building and room
Pros:

The most relevant aspect is its location, I have to admit. Walking distance from everywhere. Very well located. The building and the room were also nice. And nice staff.

Cons:

Room has two beds; one of them (left) was too soft, not solid enough; as the other one was perfect, it worked for me.
Breakfast was also too limited; in particular on fruits and on pastries.

Lovely weather and friendly people made a lovely visit.
Pros:

Central location

Cons:

There was building work and cranes in the street outside the hotel and the city is a bit grubby. However the hotel was very clean and the restaurants we visited were lovely.

Good
Pros:

Very good location, comfortable bed and room, free mini bar, free water and tea, clean

Cons:

Way too expensive for a basic room (but maybe everywhere in valletta?) staff were OK but not able to give a lot of recommendation and you felt a bit like you bothered them, so noisy..
I would expect a lot more for this price
