Pros:

Vom Zimmer direkter Blick auf Grand Harbour. Kein offener Balkon, sondern ein traditioneller Erker mit Kippfenstern.
Frühstück alles ok!

Cons:

Baustelle neben Hotel, aber so etwas lässt sich ja nicht ändern.

Very enjoyable stay in Valletta, and the negatives about the hotel did not spoil our stay.
Pros:

Location is the Best in Malta!!The view is exceptional. The room needs a lot of up dating, furniture and fittings need renewed.

Cons:

As above the bedroom fittings ,a bit tired ,bathroom and towels need a bit of attention.

Однозначно рекомендую для проживання, щоб зі зручністю і задоволенням дослідити Валлетту
Pros:

Відмінне розташування - у старому місті, але скраю, де нема шума і також усе у пішой доступності. Персонал дуже привітний і допоміг з викликом таксі, та з інших питань. Смачний і збалансований сніданок

A great 2 night stay in the centre of Valletta
Pros:

The location of the hotel is central to Valletta and close to the Gozo speed ferry. Exceptionally clean and staff were so helpful and accommodating. We were in room 601 which is a deluxe double room with harbour view, and had a fantastic view of the harbour and whilst there was no balcony we spent a lot of time on the terrace which was a few steps from the room. The room itself was lovely with a very comfortable bed. Breakfast was very good with a great choice of hot and cold options. We were visiting family and will definitely book again when we come again. Thankyou

Cons:

Nothing

A very enjoyable few days solo travelling. The Grand Harbour Hotel was just what I was looking for; small, friendly and
Pros:

Wonderful views over the Grand Harbour. Very good position to get to places. Good sized room and en-suite with very good shower. Excellent breakfast choices. Friendly staff.

Cons:

The pillows were very lumpy and thin.
It is very close to bars that play music until late. Ear plugs could be useful.
