Central hotel with roof-top patio

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel and it was good for our 3 nights. The room was small but comfortable. For older, less able, folks it was a steep walk up to the main streets of Valletta. The best features of the hotel were a good breakfast (included) and the amazing view from the roof-top balcony.

Got the real feel of Malta. So much history within walking distance. Very friendly staff. Breakfast was good, but basically the same offerings day after day….not to be a negative just an observation.

What a nice little hotel in Valletta. I booked for the harbor view and it was amazing. Our first time in Malta and this part of it is breathtaking. The room was large and comfortable and the staff were all so nice. It was so convenient to walk to everything in Valletta. There’s a rooftop area with a 360 degree view as well so take advantage of it! Breakfast was included and was great. This is a really nice hotel and you can’t beat the views!

Fantastic double aspect view from our 6th floor room. Occasional furniture noise from the roof terrace above Would come bacl here.
J, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Definitely a super strategic location. Couldn't be better placed. Will likely stay there again if returning to Malta because it is just on top of the ferry to Gozo, which makes it a 2 min walk! Additionally, it's right at the end of a strip of cafes and restaurants and walking minutes from the main plaza and the terminal to take all the buses, including the one to the airport (X4).

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic harbour views from the roof terrace!

This is superb location to see Valletta with amazing views over the harbour. We were fortunate enough to have one of the rooms that had its own terrace, but the terrace on the 7th floor, which all residents can use is fantastic. If we ever visit Valletta again, we will strive to get the same room.

Lovely stay at the Grand Harbour Hotel

Loved this privately-run hotel. It's a great price for Valletta, especially since breakfast is included. Unfortunately I didn't manage to get a harbour view room, so had windows but no view. I was on the 6th floor, just a few steps from the lovely rooftop terrace which overlooks the Three Cities. You'll get fit here - there are quite a lot of steps up to the main drag of Valletta. Take the ferry to Birgu for a wander around and to see Fort St Angelo. Upon return to Valletta, you can take the Barrakka Lift - it's only a euro each way if buying a ticket, but is included at no extra cost in the ferry ticket.

The Grand Harbour Hotel.

This Hotel is in the perfect location to explore Valletta. We had a room overlooking the Grand Harbour and could see the ships and boats come and go. It is a short walk into the Old Town with shops restaurant and bars. It is also a 5 min walk to the Gozo Fast Ferry from the hotel and you can see it arrive. Also the gondolas that take you to the Three Cities go from there. The Hotel is clean and the staff friendly and very helpful We just had a room and walked out every day for breakfast as there are a load of places to eat.
