Valletta hotellia

Plussat: Hotellin sijainti on erittäin hyvä. Samoin hotellin allasalue on tilava ja viihtyisä.

Miinukset: Huoneessa oli ongelmia wc:n ja pahasti narisevien vaatekaappien ovien kanssa. Ikävää oli se, että kahdesti henkilökunta tuli avaimillaan yllättäin huoneeseen samanaikaisesti koputuksen kanssa. Buffet-aamiainen oli pettymys, koska leipomotuotteet eivät olleet tuoreita ja osa "tuoreista" hedelmistä kellui liemessä. Tämä aamupala ei ollut viiden tähden hotellin tasoa. Huone oli tunkkainen ilmeisemmin kokolattiamaton vuoksi.

Plussat: Hotellin uima-allasalue erinomainen ja meressä myös mahdollisuus käydä uimassa. Ystävällinen henkilökunta.

Miinukset: Viemärin haju hotellihuoneessa saapumispäivänä hyvin voimakas. Jäi epäselväksi tuliko haju viemäristä vai kantautuiko ilmastoinnin kautta. Lievä viemärinhaju toisinaan hotellin käytävällä. Aamiainen hotellissa samanlainen koko viikon ajan. Melko runsas, kasviksia ja salaatteja olisi saanut olla tarjolla. Tarjolla vain salaatin lehtiä, mauttomia minitomaatteja sekä kitkeriä kurkun paloja. Hotellin taso ei ole mielestäni 5 tähden hotelli.

Plussat: Room was clean and also very spacious. Nice pool area

Miinukset: Last day no hot water and due to covid bfast had to be taken in our rooms and expected much more from a 5star! Was cold and poor selection. Also tv not working properly. One night after returning back we found it all chained up and had to knock to open us! And considering hotel was empty they should have gave us a better view and not partial..

Plussat: Swimming pool area

Miinukset: Room was very old and furniture falling to pieces. Bed not a proper double bed and balcony was filty. Restaurant was super slow for bfast and pool area was super crowded with visitors for the day. One could only order room service for dinner as no other dinning option but then we were charged 5 euro for room service. Too many people and not properly manned in reception and also restaurants and pool. Coackroaches in bathroom.

Plussat: We visited as covid restrictions are just being lifted. Hotel checked temperature on entry. Other safety issues addressed. Due to restrictions breakfast served in room. No extra charge for room service. Hotel very quiet.

Miinukset: Bars and restaurants not open, due to covid restrictions. Although room was nice and we had a free upgrade, I think it was too expensive for just the room and no access to hotel facilities. Staff didn't explain if anything was open, shops in foyer were closed. They were not interested with our 1 night stay. Too far out of Valletta city.

Plussat: The staff were really helpful and understanding. Special mention to Sasha, Vince that served us during breakfast, elisabeth front desk and Christian by the pool.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Hotellin sijainti on erinomainen lähellä vanhaa kaupunkia ja mereen pääsee helposti uimaan allasalueen rappusia. Ei kuitenkaan sovi liikuntarjoitteiselle (hotelli on huomattavasti kaupunkia alempana).

Miinukset: Etenkin ravintoloiden henkilökunnasta suuri osa oli kokematonta, mikä aiheutti palvelun hitautta. Esimerkiksi aamiaisella teetä joutui pyytämään moneen kertaan, ja usein kun sitä lopulta sai, se oli kylmää. Henkilökunnan tason osalta ei ole 5 tähden hotelli.

Plussat: It’s very central and the views are stunning

Miinukset: Nothing

Miinukset: Due to the Corona, the hotel has proposed at the beginning a voucher with a value limited to 70% of the amount paid for my room. After contacting their management, the hotel has proposed 85%. At the end, the hotel has proposed a voucher with the full amount. Is it the right behavior to take care of the a customer? Honestly I prefer to receive a full refund in place of a voucher. During this Corona crisis, everybody has lost something (salary, incomes,...) why such of behavior? Qatar Airways, Air Malta, offer a full refund.

Plussat: Clean and great pool

Miinukset: Room service needs to be better

Plussat: Normaali hyvätasoisen hotelliin aamiainen. Sijainti oli hyvä.

Miinukset: Bidee puuttui WC:ssä

Miinukset: Breakfast was ordered at 08 30am and served at 12 00.

Plussat: The location was good and the Spa was excellent.

Miinukset: The staff were a little arrogant at times. I put this down to the hotel trying to maintain 5 star status.

Plussat: Proximity to bus terminal. Nice swimming pool. Very good restaurant. We had a nice stay in this hotel.

Plussat: Friendly, helpful staff with exactly the right balance of attitude - not stiff and formal, not too familiar.

Miinukset: No complaints.

Plussat: Perfect hotel. Special thanks to Nadine from front desk for patience and availability, without her we could have not rented a car.

Plussat: Phenomenal harbour and sea view, excellent facilities (impressive location of the swimming pool and private beach for the hotel guests), good level room services, useful location within the city, comfortable and quiet rooms, and attentive and friendly staff.

Miinukset: For a five-star I found it very surprising to find my minibar empty.

Plussat: Olemme vielä vakuttuneimpia siitä että tämä oli paras valinta Maltalla. Sijainti on erinomainen, lähellä Valettan keskustaa ja ainoastaan 5 min lauttamatkan päässä Sliemasta. Hieno allasalue meren rannalla jonka yhteyydessä on hyvä Spa. 5 min kävelymatka bussiasemalle ja pääkadulle Valetassa. Palvelu oli erinomainen.

Plussat: Ystävällinen ja avulias henkilökunta. Korkeatasoinen palvelu. Viiden tähden arvoinen hotelli hyvällä sijainnilla. Läheisestä bussiterminaalista hyvät yhteydet kaikkialle saaren eri kohteisiin.

Miinukset: Alakerrassa oleva sauna ei vastaa hotellin muuta tasoa

Plussat: Everything, an extremely well run hotel, nothing was too much trouble for the friendly and attentive staff

Miinukset:

Plussat: How friendly and attentive the hotel staff were.

Miinukset:

Plussat: All around great experience!

Miinukset: The breakfast could have been a lot better.

Plussat: Luxury and the friendliness and helpfullness of the staff. they were determined to make the best of a not easy situation. Restaurant excellent.

Miinukset: need to appreciate that present price reflects that building work in progress and many ammenities not yet complete. however, the plusses far outweighed the minusses.

Plussat: The effeciency and politeness of the staff and their loyalty to a management that had not had the canduor to tell everyone that this is a half finished hotel with few of the facilities yet available.

Miinukset: The fact that VAT was charged on the bill when I was led to believe that it was included. Pretty isolated location for other ameneties.

Plussat: Excellent breakfast, which was expensive but generous, varied and set us up for the day. Room was spacious with comfy beds and good sized bathroom. Service was exceptional. Location, near the bus station and also a stone's throw from the way into Valletta was perfect.

Miinukset: There was a pleasant less formal place to eat in the evening and we would have appreciated a changing menu. We felt to be revisiting the same dishes as the week went on.

Plussat: The hotel is in a great location for the old town of Valletta. The grounds and hotel are beautiful. The staff were kind, courteous, and helpful. They left me a belated birthday treat in our room, which was very much appreciated. Breakfast was delicious. Overall, it was a lovely stay.

Miinukset: There wasn’t much to complain about. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Plussat: Stunning architecture, wonderful staff, delicious food and beautifully clean

Plussat: We only stayed for one night. Reception was welcoming and courteous. Very comfortable bed and a room with harbour and sunset views. Breakfast was delicious and staff was excellent.

Miinukset: My wife was looking forward to a good soak in a bath before we went out to the theatre only to find that there was only a shower. I did not mind so much but wife was a bit disappointed.

Plussat: Delicious breakfast. best location for Valletta. Large room with everything there including a free soft drinks mini bar.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Nice heated Swimming Pool overlooking the harbour.

Plussat: Location, style, space,quality.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Breakfast expensive, room smallish but efficient

Plussat: Amazing place, great staff, highly recommended

Miinukset: Might be slightly noisy

Plussat: Yet another slightly shabby once-grande old dame to join the ranks of the nouveaux-pauvres. Overall, reasonable value for money, though certainly not 5-star quality. Perhaps 3-4 star. Items most in need of improvement - bedroom furniture (looks like Lady Stickland's origninal inventory is still in place, and rather the worse for wear) and the main restaurant - I've seen better standards in hospital canteens !! Still, beneath the "fading drapes and peeling paint" lurks some residual old world charm, which would not require a king's ransom to restore it to a semblance of its former glory. And should this happen one day, I would recommend a different interior designer - even the renovated rooms are gaudy rather than tasteful.

Miinukset: See above. Connie Francis and Patsy Kline blaring from the adjacent bus terminal.

Plussat: Very much, excellent value for money

Miinukset: Staff a bit rough

Plussat: This is a grand old place to stay. Right next to the bus station & the old city of Valletta. Staff very friendly and helpful. Room clean and had a great view over the harbour. The large gardens and pool are great for relaxing. Free wifi available in the bar area.

Miinukset: Best to avoid the food at the bistro. You can get better meals in Valletta.

Plussat: A warm welcome when one arrives and a comfortable room. Excellent sevice always.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Laajat aulatilat ja miellyttäviä sohvaryhmiä. Aamiainen erittäin monipuolinen. Loistava sijainti.

Miinukset: Maksullinen internetin käyttö.

Plussat: Hotellin sijainti oli erinomainen, etenkin kun halusimme asua Valetan läheisyydessä, eikä varsinaisessa rantaturistikohteessa. Keskusbussiaseman läheisyys oli erittäin hyvä joskin antoi joka aamu aika aikaisen herätyksen kun paikalliset bussikuskit aloittivat työnsä kello kuuden maissa ja heillä oli tapana soittaa iloisesti torvea. Muuten hotellin taso oli sitä mitä sen tasoiselta hotellilta saa ja pitää odottaa.

Miinukset: Ainoa pieni miinus on, että kun ostimme hotellin kautta erilaisia retkiä ja kyselimme niistä niin henkilökunta ei osannut kertoa niistä mitään. Tämän tasoisen hotellin olisi hyvä lähettää ne henkilöt, jotka näitä tuotteita myyvät, kerran salaa kokeilemaan näitä erilaisia esim. retkiä niin he tietäisivät paremmin mitä myyvät ja minkälaista palvelua eri palveluntarjoajat myyvät. Tämä enemmän vinkkinä kuin arvosteluna!

Plussat: Excellent localisation, confort, calm

Miinukset: Rooms are a bit small

Plussat: Siisti, kohtuullisenkokoinen huone, ystävällinen palvelu.

Miinukset: Ensin saadussa huoneessa oli väliovi naapurihuoneeseen josta tuli tupakan hajua. Seuraavaksi saimme huoneen joka oli oivallinen, savuton ja rauhallinen.

Plussat: Swimming pool was excellent, food was very good.

Miinukset: Staff at the reseption: very slow and not friendly. Hotel is old and a bit wornout.

Plussat: The combination of the old, traditional style and feeling with the beautifully refurbished facilities; very warm and helpful personnel

Miinukset: The elevator nearest our room (4 floors up) was out of order at times. The cost of the breakfasts seemed very high

Plussat: Perfect location. Very close to the bus terminal.

Miinukset: Breakfast wasn't included.

Plussat: Staff , location

Miinukset: Would prefer buffet style breakfast

Plussat: Excellent location. Easy walking distance to the centre and port.

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti, siisti.

Miinukset: Huoneen ainoa ikkuna oli avoimelle sisäpihalle. Aivan ikkunan vieressä on pitkä parveke, joka toimii kulkuväylänä huoneisiin. Pitää siis valita yksityisyyden ja päivänvalon välillä. Ja vaikka avaa verhot, sää selviää vasta, kun on kadulla. Ravintolan baarissa ei voinut maksaa luottokortilla. Tiukka mäki pääkatua kohti kävellessä voi olla hankala huonompikuntoiselle tai jalkavaivaiselle.

Plussat: Very good location, room was big, clean with a modern decor. Fast check-in and check-out and helpful staff.

Miinukset: The breakfast had no variety, the products weren't that tasty and it took long to be ready

Plussat: The hotel is new and very well located, our room had a nice design but was a bit small and it gave you a claustrophobic feeling due to the tightness and lack of natural light. The bed was comfortable. Breakfast room was cozy and pleasant, with fresh pastry and a la carte menu. which was top.

Miinukset: Most of the rooms have access from an inner open yard that is quite windy and noisy in the morning. I know that's the case in Valletta for most properties so we wouldn't have minded it if there wasn't this continuous noise under the door and if the staff hand't started at 8.00 am to wash with a pressure garden shower the terrace at the ground floor. We complained and it didn't repeat so it was OK, as for the wind noise we put a towel on the floor at the door. Our room was on the corner, small, dark (the window opens to the inner yard and has no luminosity), it was a bit disappointing for a 4* hotel and the money paid. The hotel was full and we had to wait almost every morning for our breakfast quite long which was frustrating. Otherwise breakfast offer was good but somehow the staff not very well organised. The staff at the Reception was friendly but not very helpful.

Plussat: Loistava sijainti Vallettan keskustassa. Aamupala oli hyvä ja sillä pärjäsi pitkälle päivään. Henkilökunta oli ystävällinen ja avulias.

Miinukset: Huoneen äänieristys heikko. Siistijöiden komero oli käytävällä meidän huoneen kohdalla. Heräsin aamuisin klo 7, kun siistijät aloittivat työnsä.

Plussat: Very clean Very helpfull and pleasant staff

Plussat: Hyvä aamiainen. ERittäin hyvä sijainti.

Plussat: The breakfast was fantastic. Friendly staff and great to have waitress service instead of self service.

Miinukset: There wasn’t anything that we didn’t like. This is a fantastic hotel.

Plussat: Loistava sijainti, ikkuna merelle, monipuolinen aamiainen.

Miinukset: Hieman nuhjuista. Respassa ei halittu kertoa, missä matkailuinfo sijaitsee, koska halusivat itse myydä lippuja.

Plussat: Lovely hotel in fantastic location within walking distance to many WWII sites and restaurants. A delicious buffet style breakfast with lots of choice. We had dinner one night - it was nice, not fine dining but a buffet with plenty of choice. Staff in the restaurant very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Rooms super clean and comfortable.

Plussat: Superb location and breakfast

Plussat: Convenient location, great choice for breakfast, I was allowed to checkin hours before the official time, helpful staff.

Miinukset: Everything was good!

Plussat: Pros: - Location: central. Valletta is of course small, but it helps the hotel being built on the “plateau” of the old fortress - Very polite and helpful personnel - Good, varied breakfast - Kettle, safe, and mini-fridge in room (larger than a minibar, I mean) - Unbeatable price off-season: 43 EUR/ night breakfast included! - Big LED Smart TV – a fabulous plus for a 3* hotel was I could connect to Internet on the TV – YouTube and all! - Comfy, large bed - Fluffy towels

Miinukset: Cons: - Poor coffee at breakfast - Room may have been a little larger, but it is an old building after all. I stayed solo in a double at the 5th floor and it was OK. With two people in it I am not that sure. - Wardrobes rather worn out; old hangers - Poor water pressure at the bathroom sink - Poor toiletries - Rather cramped bathroom, although the shower cubicle was large enough for a big guy like me - I could not alter the room temperature using the AC thermostat as the temperature was set by the management and could not be changed. Problem was it was set at 28 degrees Celsius, which made the room impossible to sleep in after 30 min of operation. I complained to the reception, they promised to fix it, did nothing, so I resorted to sleeping with the AC/ heating off, which was not really an issue given the warm Maltese nights. But that procedure is not OK, and management should allow clients to set their own desired temperature in room.

Plussat: The staff were friendly and the bed was comfortable. It was in a very convenient location for me.

Miinukset: The hotel was fairly dirty. The air-conditioning in my room was broken and so was the telephone. The walls are incredibly thin so I could hear everything going on in the rooms around me when I was trying to sleep.

Plussat: Great location. Friendly staff. Very clean rooms. Lots of choice for breakfast.

Miinukset: Noisy first thing in the morning due to building works in he hotel.

Plussat: Location.

Miinukset: Female front staff service was so poor...she did not assist when I needed to use internet and more...

Plussat: easy access to city

Miinukset: The cleaning staff was very noisy each morning (before 9 am !!!)

Plussat: Valetta has huge potential for gentrification and this hotel is leading the way. Attractively renovated with tastefully decorated and bright common areas and rooms. Many of the staff (especially the 2 older male front desk clerks) were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was hot and tasty. The view from our room over the city and harbour was outstanding. And the location, within easy walking distance of all of Valetta along with the City Gate bus depot, was very convenient. We were glad that we did not stay in one of the ugly modern parts of Malta.

Miinukset: The bathroom, while large, had not been renovated, and had a poorly-functioning toilet and dated towels and shower curtain. As elsewhere in Malta, we were struck by how unfriendly certain staff were, especially the young female front desk clerk (who acted like a completely different person when young men she knew came in) and the housekeeping staff. We also had an ugly argument at midnight with the taxi driver the hotel sent to retrieve us from the airport, related to paying for a non-functional baby seat that was not supposed to cost extra. And one should be prepared for the hotel's payment system- whole stay paid immediately upon arrival, deposit needed for the TV remote, and small fee paid to use the room safe.

Plussat: Central location, pleasant staff, comfortable room for the price, good bathroom facilities cleaned & towels changed every day.

Miinukset: Buffer dinners

Plussat: Location was good.

Miinukset: Basically no claim.

Plussat: The location, very central. Shops, Bus station & many old monuments to explore. The decor of the Hotel had old world charm.

Miinukset: More tourist info/publications would be helpful. Available info was limited, especially in English.

Plussat: Ystävällinen henkilökunta, siisti, hyvä sijainti

Miinukset: Kaikki oli meidän kohdalta OK - yksi pieni puute - aamiaisella voisi olla vihanneksia - tomaattia, kurkkua

Plussat: Perushotelli ei mitään yllättävää. Viikko englantilaista aamu-palaa jossa ei ole mitän vihanneksia eikä hedelmiä rupesi yököttämään.Sijainti oli hyvä.

Miinukset: Näkymä ikkunasta oli surkea vain jotkut rauniot näkyi.

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti, yleistilat miellyttävät, palvelutaso hyvä.

Miinukset: Huoneet kuluneet ja osassa tumma karvalattiamatto.

Plussat: Closeness to valletta centre

Miinukset: The staff in this hotel were the most un-enthusiastic people I have ever seen na d made it seem like everything for you was a big chore. I specifically asked for a double bed and was not given one I asked at reception and was made to feel like an in-convenience. Advertised as full english breakfast this is not true. Targetted to germans not english

Plussat: The hotel is quiet cheap considering the quality (jacuzzi and swimming pool, nice view, ...) and considering the prices of other hotels in Valetta. A hotel we would recommend.

Miinukset: The swimming pool is somewhat crowded.

Plussat: It has a good location and staff are very helful.

Miinukset: The shower was too small

Plussat: The location is perfect, right in the heart of Valletta. The room was lovely and well equipped. The staff was super friendly and helped us arranging a rental car and airport taxi. Value for money at this place is excellent!

Miinukset: The shower jumped from hot to cold which was a bit annoying but apart from that the room was great! Breakfast for 3 days was good but if we had stayed longer I would have liked a little more options on the buffet.

Plussat: Wonderful hotel in the centre of beautiful Valletta. Super friendly and helpful staff. Went out of their way to help me if I had a problem. Very much enjoyed the welcome glass of Presecco at the rooftop bar and the upgrade to a larger room! And the English breakfast was superb.

Miinukset: Being an older building the plumbing wasn't great. My shower fluctuated from hot to cold. Staff did their best to fix it.

Plussat: Staff very professional. Especially Kevin

Miinukset: Shower temperature can be too hot suddenly. Temperature control issue. Fire alarm at mid night without any issue. False alarm...

Plussat: Very kind of them to upgrade our room (having two bathrooms was great!), welcome us with fizz on roof terrace and make us feel very special for my husband’s birthday. Man in Cheeky Monkey bar was also very accommodating putting Liverpool game on (with sound!)

Miinukset: No view, overly complicated lighting/ control panel and temperamental TV

Plussat: Everything Gorgeous food Friendly and vertical helpful staff Stunning hotel Perfect location 10 out of 10

Miinukset: Perfect :) I will definitely stay here again in the future. Nothing I didnt like

Plussat: Excellent amenities, super friendly staff, nicely decorated and comfortable room. This place was amazing!!!

Miinukset: It was honestly perfect. No complaints.

Plussat: Location - friendly and helpful staff

Miinukset: No chair to sit down on in room.

Plussat: Great location, friendly staff - especially the guy who was at the reception the (late) evening when we came, he was very helpful and nothing we asked for was a problem. Rich breakfast in an unusual surroundings.

Miinukset: The beds were too comfortable. We did not want to get up in the mornings

Plussat: I highly recommend Palazzo Paolina Boutique Hotel! The location of the hotel Is great, the stuff was extremely helpful and nice. The breakfast was amazing! The hotel is very clean and comfortable. All the details inside are very stylish - the paintings, the furniture and the lobby is painted incredibly. If we visited Malta again, for sure we will stay there!

Plussat: What this property has going for it is the location. In the heart of Valletta, and close to the bus station, from where you can take a bus to anywhere in the island. There are many restaurants and also a supermarket just a block away. Staff was also very friendly.

Miinukset: I think there are a few spots where maintenance is long overdue. Things like water damage, loose bed head rest, and the like. Those are all things that contrast with the otherwise charming building and are not acceptable at this price range.

Plussat: Location, in central Valletta; very close to a variety of eating options including the ‘market’ and a grocery store. Nice helpful staff Could buy tickets for some tours at reception

Miinukset: Room was very small. Bad for a solo, for a double it would be impossible ( but maybe it was a single only room) Air conditioning was central and set to winter, so no cooling. My room was warm and I needed internal balcony door and my room door open for a while to cool it in the evening. Wooden chairs on tiled floors cause noisy scraping, heard above and below the level you are on.

Plussat: Hotel is in a good location within easy walking distance of main attractions & public transport. I was upgraded to a suite on my arrival, so had quite a large room. All rooms have tea/coffee making facilities (an added bonus as at lot of hotels don't provide this nowadays), complimentary bottled water, minibar & bathroom toiletries. Also robes & slippers for guests. There was a good choice at breakfast, which was served in what was originally the cellar of the property. The staff were all helpful & very pleasant & reception is manned 24 hrs daily. I would have no hesitation at staying at the hotel again & would certainly recommend.

Miinukset: There wasn't anything I didn't like.

Plussat: The hotel was central - the room was clean and tidy - coffee facilities were topped up every day and a couple of times through the day we were asked if we needed anything additional- due to the hotels location, we popped by during the day to drop things off, change shoes etc. I would recommend this hotel to friends. Breakfast, loads of choice continental breakfast all types of cheeses/meat/breads and pastries. There was a good selection of cooked breakfast eggs/bacon/sausage to choose too. Nothing was too much trouble

Miinukset: I appreciated that in central hotels, rooms can be smaller and the this is the only thing I can mention - was the size of our room. It was difficult to maneuver around the bed. I had to plan how I was going to get around it to get to my side of the bed and to get to the wardrobe. However, this would not put me off going back to this hotel. The service was outstanding.

Plussat: Erittäin siisti hotelli ja hyvä palvelu! Sijainti oli täydellinen!

Miinukset: Huone oli hieman hämärä, sillä ikkunat olivat melko pienet.

Plussat: This hotel is well situated at the heart of Valetta. The staff was extremely welcoming, nice and helpful (24/7 presence). The room was clean, spacious and very comfortable and the breakfast was very tasty with a lot of choice.

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Huippusijainti Vallettan vanhassa kaupungissa. Huoneessa myös eurooppalaiset sähköpistorasiat eli ilman adapteriakin pärjäsi.

Miinukset: Hiukan hankala löytää, etsi vaaleansinistä ovea. Katunumerointi epäselvä.

Plussat: Good location, nice small hotel and very helpful staff

Plussat: The room space and shower!

Miinukset: The pillows

Plussat: It's beautiful! The courtyard and room were really pretty. Really friendly and helpful staff. Nice continental breakfast. Bed was super comfy. And I had a lovely little balcony with a view of the street.

Miinukset: It was quite noisy, you could hear footsteps from upstairs, chatting from the room next door, and every time someone had a shower or flushed a toilet, the pipes would go crazy! So getting to sleep wasn't always easy. Also had a pretty bad allergic reaction to something in my room on my last night (sneezing, itching, sore eyes), wasn't worth complaing about since I was leaving in the morning, but it made me really glad to leave even though it was all lovely otherwise.

Plussat: Breakfast was OK but the same choices every morning for a week.eggs may have been a good idea!

Plussat: All the staff we met were friendly and helpful. Location is perfect for Valetta, on one of the quieter streets 3 mins walk from the old fort, a small supermarket on the corner of the street and no more than 5 mins walk to the nearest bar and restaurants and onto Valetta's main shopping streets and sights. We stayed in the loft which was a large room with connected lounge space (with Maltese balcony) and well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony with our morning coffee and evening drinks. Bed was very large and comfortable. Breakfast had very good variety covering all options e.g. cereal, breads, fruit, cheese & meat, croissants plus a very good coffee machine and variety of teas. Good quality toiletries provided too. Overall very pleased that we found the Vincent and stayed here.

Miinukset: The only reason I didn't give this a 9 or 10 rating was that it just lacked a couple of fine points / attention to detail. The towels (all provided and changed daily) had seen better days and well worn. One was frayed at the edge with threads coming off. The bedding on the first night had a stain. It had been washed but was in a position that could have been spotted and changed. One of the cups in the kitchen has a crack, the saucer chipped and the bottom was coming off the frying pan. Writing as an ex-self catered holiday provider, things that I would have spotted and changed. All things considered, don't let this put you off booking as on the whole it was a very good stay.

Plussat: Great location and beautiful old Maltese town house, which was very nicely decorated. The self check in was hassle-free and while there were not staff there all the time, when they were there during working hours they were super friendly and accommodating.

Miinukset: The bathroom design was very strange, our bathroom was literally a wash room under some stairs. So when you take a shower the entire room fills with water, making it then messy to use the toilet/sink etc. I appreciated that it was a quirky design to make the most of the old building but in the end I avoided using the shower for my one night stay because of this. The bathrooms/toilets all have completely glass doors making it a bit of an unecessary spectator sport when your partner uses the bathroom!

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: No Lift!

Plussat: Extremely pretty hotel Room decor amazing - I was in the Artista The courtyard Breakfast outdoors in the courtyard Breakfast - as much as you like Really good shower Good location (if you want to be at that end of town) Spiral staircase (this may be a negative for some people) Big TV Pleasant staff Ordering taxi was easy The Xmas decorations Overall, very good value.

Miinukset: Bathroom fans left on all day and night in adjacent rooms which were noisy No hot water in sink Room a bit dark No drawer unit No kettle or tea Staff not around after about 4pm, although contact numbers are given

Plussat: The hotel is very central ,nearby everything ,large rooms ,very beatiful decorated ,very polite the staff !

Plussat: No breakfast until 0800h. We had an early morning departure so no comment on the breakfast. No attempt by the staff to somehow accommodate some sort of early breakfast,

Miinukset: No place to hang towels. Toilet area very cramped (and we are not big people!!)

Plussat: Staff attitude, location

Miinukset: No water boiler in room, few TV channels, only BBC english speaking. Water in shower took long to heat

Plussat: Good location, easy to find. The breakfast was good.

Miinukset: The bed was very old and it was not comfortable. The bathroom could be cleaner... I found some hair in the bathroom and in the sink.

Plussat: Staff are so nice. Great location and breakfast was lovely

Miinukset: Air con is terrible!

Plussat: Kattoravintola näköaloineen. Sijainti ja henkilökunta.

Miinukset: Suihkusta lämmintä vettä vain aamulla ja vettä tuli todella pie ellä paineella.

Plussat: Siisti ikääntynyt hotelli erinomaisella sijainnilla. Erittäin ystävällinen henkilökunta ja siisti huone. Hyvä sänky ja suihkussa riittävästi lämmintä vettä. Tulen uudestaan,

Miinukset: Vaatimatonta aamiaista kompensoi upea näkymä kattoterassilta. Huoneiden lukitus mallia "erittäin perinteinen".

Plussat: Excellent staff and lovely breakfast. Great location to base yourself in Valetta

Plussat: It's a perfect location in Valetta, the staff are very nice and they have a great rooftop restaurant.

Miinukset: It's a very old building so the rooms show that, the beds are very basic.

Plussat: Location was great. Right next to many sight seeing. Staff were very friendly and nice. Simple and fast check in and check out.

Miinukset: I think the hotel management could invest a lot more on the room facilities and comfortness. My room (the hotel) style was very old-fashion. Not a bad thing per se, but it looked a bit dark and dirty. My room window was not noise-proof at all. I could hear the noise from the street from early morning. Breakfast was basically the same without much variety.

Plussat: A very warm welcome upon check in, reception and restaurant staff were great. The view from the rooftop restaurant was stunning, fab views over to the 3 Cities and Floriana and really good for watching the carnival floats. Breakfast was basic and OK. Lunch and dinner meals were excellent. This is an old, historic building in the very heart of Valletta. It's a great location for exploring the city and the rest of Malta as the bus station was less than 5 minutes on foot.

Miinukset: There was an issue with the shower, I had to hold the shower head when using as there was no where for it to sit/attach to the wall as this had obviously broken at some point. Housekeeping staff were aware. This should be fixed for future hotel guests.

Plussat: Things were very neat, clean and well maintained. It had all the facilities and space to do the cooking. Getting into the kitchen was some what difficult but I only used to warm my meal so it was not a problem. Balcony was very convenient and provided a great view of three cities. Staff and manager is very friendly and welcoming and co-operative. The place is also conveniently located.

Plussat: My stay at Paulos was excellent, I really can't find anything to fault it. The staff were exceptionally nice, the room spacious, clean and comfortable, and cental location. The property has lots of character--the photos don't do it justice. Extra points for the hosts because I had to leave early in the morning and wouldn't have time for breakfast but they sorted out some breakfast and put it in my fridge in the room. That service goes a long way! I'll definitely come back next time I visit Malta and I highly recommend Paulos.

Miinukset: Minor thing, but I had trouble finding it because I was expecting a big sign or something. I should have written down the exact street number instead of walking around aimlessly. :p

Plussat: Friendly staff with family - free attitude. Nice location and beautiful old building.

Plussat: What a great place! Perfect location, beautiful views, good price, friendly hosts, comfortable rooms - there's no other place I would stay when I visit Malta. I will be going back.

Miinukset: Nothing - everything was great!

Plussat: Hosts were very helpful & friendly. Lovely, intimate breakfast setting & generous food.

Plussat: Maria, Beppe and all the staff were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious and the view from our balcony was delightful.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: Beautifully decorated, sumptuous breakfast and lovely staff

Miinukset: Unfortunately the spa was out of action for the duration of our stay which was disappointing

Plussat: We asked for a room with plenty of natural light and got a gorgeous room with a balcony at the front of the hotel. The bed was one of the most comfortable I think I have ever had, breakfast was excellent and the staff were extremely helpful.

Miinukset: Sadly and no fault of the hotel the hot tub/spa pool was only usable one day and it was fantastic after a day of walking in the cold but then there was some kind of a structural repair needed and we couldn't use it again. I had booked the hotel for the spa pool as I have a bad knee and was looking forward to some warm water relaxation each afternoon, so that was disappointing.

Plussat: Staff ,breakfast , free minibar in the room and location

Plussat: Due to Valentines Day the hotel's spa was fully booked but the concierge helped me book a treatment at a neighbouring hotel. He also helped to find a restaurant on that crazy night. Great location in a quiet street but close to the Lower Barakka Gardens and restaurants and bars.

Plussat: We had a great stay at the palazzo. Location is well situated with large a spacious room (Maltija). Staff is very warm and friendly and the breakfast made us ready to start another eventful day.

Plussat: The staff was excellent. They truly made the stay. The location was great for walking and exploring Valletta late at night.

Miinukset: I would have liked to have a shower in my room. I only had a tub.

Plussat: Great location, character and comfortable bed

Miinukset: Nothing really

Plussat: A lift in the hotel gave access to all floors except the basement, where the spa was. The rooms were large with ample storage and the bathroom was excellent, although there was no shower. Breakfast was buffet and served on the ground floor. Space was minimal and could be a problem. The hotel was ideally situated to explore Valletta, but with its undulating streets, this would be difficult for elderly or infirm persons.

Miinukset: Having travelled by bus from the airport, the walk to the hotel was some distance. Taxi transfer was available from the airport to the hotel, but seemed expensive.

Plussat: The spa is a huge benefit. The rooms are beautiful and have everything you can wish for. The bed is amazing.

Miinukset: We couldn't access everything in the spa due to ongoing treatments. The bathrooms can be a problem if you are concerned about your privacy due to the fact that all the doors are from glass.

Plussat: The room was as advertised: clean and comfortable...and quiet. The hotel staff were excellent and very helpful and hospitable. The location is great if you are interested wandering through the town center.

Plussat: Breakfast was small, but excuisite. Room look much bigger than the photos! That's a huge plus. Will definately go there again.

Plussat: Great design in room and common areas. Excellent breakfast.

Miinukset: Nothing really.

Plussat: Lovely room (as in fotos). The personal was very kind. Clean and a good breakfast.

Miinukset: -

Plussat: Great location. Stunning apartment outstanding host franc

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Staff and owner are super helpful and fantastic service

Miinukset: Some noise from a nearby bar - room was bright at night as lights outside shone through the curtains - the owner said had I told him he could help turn off the lights outside the room.

Plussat: The location is perfect, bedroom is superb and breakfast is lovely. All set in a beautiful converted old house.

Plussat: Excellent location, nice stuff, fantastic breakfast, very kind, friendly atmosphere!

Plussat: Franck’s hospitality was second to none. It really feels like a home away from home! The building itself is gorgeous and in the perfect location to explore Valletta. I would definitely recommend to anyone who’s coming to Malta. And the view from the balcony at the top is incredible! Wish we were staying longer!

Plussat: Beautiful, quirky and spacious boutique hotel. Fantastic value for money and friendly staff who go above and beyond. Highly recommend.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: N/a

Plussat: Weronika at the reception desk was one of the happiest and most helpful receptionists that I’ve had the pleasure to come into contact with. The location was ideal for getting to major tourist attractions in Valletta city .

Miinukset: The hard bed but that’s because they were new mattresses and the staff put a spare duvet under the bottom sheet which worked a treat.

Plussat: George on reception was amazing. Couldn't do enough to help you . What a lovely patient friendly soul. Air con waz a bit slow making room cooler than normal George sorted extra heater straight away. Great location with views that were breathtaking.

Miinukset: Toilet right outside the door. Could here people passing and cleaners doing there work early. Next time will ask for room on higher floor.

Plussat: location

Miinukset: No balcony. Only a window (had a tiny balcony that had the air-condition. You can't go out).

Plussat: Massive rooms, fabulous sea view, lovely breakfast , friendly staff. Amazing location, tea/coffee in rooms.

Miinukset: Bathroom a little small and could do with a re-furb. Could do with a little table on balcony.

Plussat: Perfect view and location. Large, comfortable and clean room. Good restaurant and best breakfast.

Miinukset: Just the pillow, with some kind of nylon

Plussat: Hotelli on hyvällä paikalla meren rannalla. Meillä on oli huone merinäköalalla ja maltalainen pieni parveke, eikä maisemat olisi voineet olla paremmat. Kaikkiin nähtävyyksiin oli lyhyt matka, toki paljon portaita, kuten koko kaupungissa. Hyvä aamiainen klo 7:30 alkaen ja viihtyisä aamiaishuone. Respan palvelu ystävällistä. Katolla kattoterassi, josta vielä paremmat maisemat. Kattoterassilla ei ole palveluita. Rakennus on hyvin vanha eikä huoneet ole mitään varsinaisia kaunottaria, mutta tilavia. Huoneessa ilmastointi, mikä tuli tarpeeseen. Lähistöllä ei ole uimarantoja.

Plussat: Very nice staff, good localization, Very clean. Nice

Plussat: Good location, friendly staff.

Miinukset: Maybe some fruits or yoghurt for breakfast.

Plussat: The seaview from the terrass

Miinukset: The poor breakfast.

Plussat: Location, and views. Being able to smoke in the galleria attached to the room. Nice staff.

Miinukset: Nothing that we disliked but the hotel is a wonderful old character building and could gain a lot by a gentle refurbishing, ridding it of its 70´s style.

Plussat: An excellent location with a beautiful view from the restaurant;good food and drinks at breakfast . The staff were friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: We found the fire exit instructions difficult to relate to the staircase arrangements. In the restaurant there is a hazard by the bar near the staircase. Otherwise safety notices quite adequate in my opinion.

Plussat: The location within the city walls is fantastic. Staggering view from bedroom window. The beds were too hard for our comfort. The staff were most helpful.

Miinukset: There were too many extras - use of safe in room, air conditioning.

Plussat: Base camp of Valletta walking and for nice night sea view. You should take dinner at second floor restaurant every night,　Low cost, High satisfaction. Rabbit/Fish and cisk, wine, so on with view. What a splendid light up view. Fort Saint Michael, Fort Saint Angelo, other. Sometimes giant cruiser is harbor in and out before your eyes, that takes a cruise around the Mediterranean Sea.

Miinukset: Oh! What a old fashioned, someone said 'Rabbit Warren', I agree with it. When I found a ceiling big fan in my room, this is the chance to remember our past life style. Yes I was staying 2*hotel. Hotel staff are very friendly no doubt, but don't want more service. Yes, this hotel is the base camp of Valletta walking and for nice night sea view.

Plussat: on keskellä historiaa! Rannalla, muttei uimarannalla. Edessä aukeaa historialliset satamapaikat.

Plussat: Hotellin sijainti on hyvä, pieni hotelli on helppo. Langaton internet.

Miinukset: Hotellissa on ainainen läpiveto, mikä tekee siitä viileän ja epämiellyttävän oleskella. Heikko aamiainen.

Plussat: Mahtavasta näköalasta pavekkeelta sekä erittäin ystävällisestä henkilökunnasta.

Miinukset: TV huoneessa toki olisi kiva.

Plussat: Erinomainen sijainti, upea näkymä huoneesta.

Miinukset: Vuodevaatteet olivat epämiellyttävät: huopa kulunut ja likainen.

Plussat: Good locaction and restaurant

Miinukset: Decor to our room was shameful

Plussat: The view over the harbour and the Festival fireworks were great

Miinukset:

Plussat: I particularly liked uniqueness and exclusivity of the property. Each nook and corner is so different. The design is impeccable.. subtle, chic, warm decor whilst holding on to the Vallettan style. The property sits on a quiet road which makes in peaceful and relaxing to enjoy. Although there is a church opposite, you’d think you’d hear their church bells... we did not. They have a really great breakfast in the morning with a small a la carts where you can order egg benedicts. Yum! We had suite 2 which was truely beautiful! You could live in the bathroom alone!! I miss it already. The staff were so friendly and kind and always went out there way in being so helpful to please you. We arrived on Valentines evening and they had swan towels on the bed with rose petals and a rose. So cute. A few days later it was my boyfriends birthday and they put out a bottle of processo in there for him. So kind. They have an awesome WhatsApp chat service they if you’re out, or at home in the property, you can chat them for assistance. Which we used for restaurant recommendations and reservations. If we ever visit Valletta again, without a doubt we’ll be staying at Casa Ellul.

Miinukset: That we couldn’t stay longer

Plussat: Amazing boutique hotel: we had booked suite 7 and did not regret it: we had sun all day on our terrace with hot tub. The breakfast is high quality (with excellent eggs Benedict) and the hotel is located extremely centrally in Valletta. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, whom provided great tips for restaurants and sights and stayed extremely hospitable and calm throughout our stay despite the coronacrisis. I would absolutely recommend.

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: Loved the mix of contemporary and traditional architecture and design The staff were so friendly and accommodating and when they received a cancellation they automatically upgraded me to a room with a balcony The food was exceptional, with a wonderful array of teas to choose from

Miinukset: From the vantage point of the bathroom I could see that under the bed was a little bit dusty

Plussat: everything was perfect

Plussat: Clean and very quiet rooms. Good coffee and healthy choice of breakfast. I felt welcome and comfortable.

Plussat: All the staff were friendly, helpful, and efficient. Great location

Plussat: The terrace overlooking the harbour.

Miinukset: The hotel did experience a problem with the electrics but they did try to improve and compensate us which was kind of them.

Plussat: Breakfast was great, location top, modern interior. Rooftop terrace

Plussat: The staff was super attentive and treated us as a family. It was amazing experience - very nice, warm and friendly. The view from the terrace is amazing and having breakfast there was priceless. Perfect location to explore Valletta - close, yet quiet We are already recommending to our friends and family.

Miinukset: small problems with the electricity in the room that was already being fixed.
