Struttura molto bella e la nostra suite era spaziosa e ben arredata in modo moderno, sembrava nuova, la zona è molto ben collegata, con 5 minuti di bus si arriva a la valletta dove c'è il capolinea principale della città per arrivare ovunque sull'isola.

We had a brilliant stay at The Central Guesthouse in Malta. The rooms were excellent and really clean, breakfast was amazing, and the owners were lovely and couldn’t do enough for us. I’d definitely recommend it and would happily go back!

Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cet aparthôtel bien placé. La chambre était agréable, propre et plutôt bien équipée, ce qui est appréciable pour un séjour de plusieurs jours. Quelques petits détails pourraient toutefois être améliorés pour rendre l’expérience vraiment parfaite. Il manquait notamment un étendoir, alors qu’une machine à laver est mise à disposition. Nous avons également regretté l’absence de passoire et de torchons, ainsi que le nombre assez limité de couverts et de vaisselle (seulement deux exemplaires à chaque fois), ce qui peut être un peu juste lorsqu’on souhaite cuisiner sur place. Enfin, les stores ferment assez mal, ce qui laisse entrer beaucoup de lumière le matin et peut être gênant pour ceux qui aiment dormir dans le noir. Dans l’ensemble, nous avons tout de même passé un bon séjour et l’établissement reste une bonne option. Avec quelques petits équipements supplémentaires et ces quelques ajustements, ce serait vraiment très appréciable.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Amenities
The location was reasonably convenient but not one of the better neighborhoods of Valletta. That’s about the best part of the stay. There was no starter supplies like, coffee, sugar, creamer, salt, oil etc.. so that we don’t have to go looking for essential things when we arrive after a long trip. Detergent, etc., were available at the reception which was only attended sporadically and not after 4 PM. Most guest house / apartment stays have basic starter amenities like coffee and tea supplies (some even have coffee maker). We lost WiFi on our second day, and to top it off we also lost power on the second evening. We had to leave well before we planned to so that we could go somewhere with power and ac. Overall our most unpleasant hotel stay in a long time - even allowing for the heat wave. We will not be recommending this place.

Disliked: Cleanliness
La struttura è moderna e le camere altrettanto, la colazione alla carta ottima. Il vero problema è il rumore proveniente dalla strada su cui si affacciano le camere poiché gli infissi sono rimasti quelli originali che non isolano per niente e non ci hanno permesso di riposare per 4 notti; il letto matrimoniale sono in realtà due letti singoli uniti ma con lenzuola singole non matrimoniali. Le pulizie si limitano al rifacimento del letto senza pulire il pavimento o il bagno. Attenzione anche alla posizione se pensate di raggiungere il centro di La Valletta a piedi poiché la struttura si trova su una collina pertanto anche se vicina bisogna percorrere salite e discese piuttosto ripide nessun problema di parcheggio se avete l'auto.

The beds were very comfortable but just a bit narrow for me personally. Overall I thought it was excellent.

A frequent business traveller to Malta, the Central Guesthouse was a great find. Great value, excellent accommodation and very good breakfast, which was included in the rate. Also a decent location, short taxi rides into Valletta, Gzira, Sliema and beyond. Would highly recommend.

Our stay at Central Guest House was very enjoyable. The room was large and comfortable and furnished appropriately for our visit. While we did not cook, the kitchen was well equipped with both oven and microwave and utensils, pots and pans, and serving pieces were readily available. The breakfasts were specially cooked for you and they were amazing in appearance, quality, and quantity--very large portions. There were many options for your choice. We particularly liked the vegetarian options and especially the veggie muffins. Location was good! Bus stops were very convenient, with just a short walk down hill, with access to many different routes at the stops. Busses were very reasonable, especially with a multiple day travel pass. We, however, really enjoyed the short 15-20 minute walk into the central city of Valletta, which we took most of the time. Restaurants of many different kinds were convenient, as were most of the major highlights of the city. Walking through different neighborhoods was an interesting way to become more familiar with the city, yet bus stop access gave you many choices. WiFi worked well. There were a couple of small restaurants and a food store close by to the Central Guest House. We also enjoyed walking through the neighborhood and seeing many of the churches and shrines.

Lovely big room. Fantastic breakfast and very friendly, helpful staff. Not too far to walk into Valletta, about 30 minutes or so, ( we didn’t manage to find the bus stop), but we were also able to get a taxi easily. Not many places to eat or drink in the vicinity.

We’ve just got back from a 10 night stay in the penthouse apartment. Excellent modern and clean facilities with a beautiful rooftop view of the surrounding area and Valetta. The hot tub was a great way to relax in the evenings after days of site seeing. Good location on a quiet street only 5 minutes walk from a bus stop, 15 minutes to the waterfront and about 35 into Valetta. Only slight criticism would be to provide a little more cutlery and a couple of extra bowls, glasses, cups etc. - the apartment is for 2 and that’s what you get of everything. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place and would certainly return.
