Top Upper Barrakka Gardens Hotel Reviews

Azur Hotel by ST Hotels

8/10 Good

"Super nice front-desk staff, this is very important as it is always the first impression you have of the hotel. Check-in and out was very easy and seamless. Not sure if the hotel is old or just not very well maintained, but my room smelled very strongly of a musty odor which did not air out or disappear over the course of my stay, and which actually permeated my clothes after only a three night stay and travelled with me for the remainder of my vacation that I concluded in Gozo. The hotel is by the waterfront and Malta is humid, but I'm sure this cannot be the reason, otherwise all hotels in the same area would have the same issue. That being said, the hotel does give you free access to an awesome beach club across the street, and for the price you pay in this area compared to the other hotels nearby, it is an obvious choice. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was fine."

San Karlu Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel in a very convenient location. The staff were very nice and helpful. Our room was spacious and nicely decorated, the bathroom was really lovely and good toiletries. The pool is small but very nice for cooling off. There is a small bar on the roof terrace and a happy hour every evening. Breakfast was brilliant, all in all a really nice hotel which I would go back to."

Palazzo Rosaria Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was on the small side but very clean and had everything we needed. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was plentiful and very good. The location was excellent, right downtown Valletta. Will recommend this hotel."

Corinthia St George's Bay

10/10 Excellent

"We have visited this property before and enjoyed our stay but the rooms were getting a little tiered, it was great to stay in a newly refurbished room this time. They have been refurbished to a very high standard and the air conditioning was A*"

Grand Hotel Excelsior

8/10 Good

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff was helpful and pleasant. The food was excellent especially the breakfast and dinner buffet. We really appreciated the transportation from the airport and then to the cruise port. The rooms could use a refresher and a heads up on the fireworks would have been appreciated. We would stay again."

The Embassy Valletta Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What a delightful, beautiful hotel perfectly located in the heart of Valletta, with incredible restaurants and shops just steps away from the hotel’s entrance. We absolutely adored this property. The lobby, rooms, lounges, restaurants, roof deck and pool area were extremely stylishly decorated and well maintained. Service was impeccable. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted and immediately helped. Alexander, Jenna, Ali, Ayer, Lucia, and other members of the Embassy’s incredible team were extremely kind and knowledgeable. I will book this hotel every time we visit Valletta. It was a joy to stay with the Embassy Hotel and very hard to leave after such a great experience."

SU29 Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed on the 6th floor and the view was spectacular. The room was large with a gorgeous outdoor terrace but sadly it had not been cleaned. We needed to clean this area before we sat there - we then were able to enjoy this lovely space overlooking the harbour and city. Our room included a small kitchenette - not really suitable to cook a meal. Expedia lists this hotel with a laundry - it does not, you need to pay per item. The staff were kind, thoughtful and very helpful and the breakfast was delicious. The location is walkable to all main attractions, close to restaurants and cafes. Just be aware it is a very difficult place to arrive on foot with large/heavy luggage as there are LOADS of stairs and hills. If you take a cab to the Grand Harbour Hotel (best option)- it is ‘only’ about 50 steps up to the hotel - doable. There are no staff to help you with your luggage as it is a small boutique hotel. Would I stay here again, absolutely, the positives definitely outweigh the negatives."

Palazzo Ignazio

10/10 Excellent

"We had the best experience. From the moment we walked in we felt welcomed and cared for. The mgr Archie and staff were so friendly and accommodating! Great location, right in the heart of things but on a quiet street. The breakfasts were delicious and tailored to each person which was such a nice touch. Our favorite was watching the sunset on the rooftop deck with a cocktail! Definitely will be back."

La Falconeria Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Easy walk to everything. Good room size. Super-comfortable bed. Strong AC. Excellent breakfast. The entire service team at La Falconeria is world-class. I stayed 4 nights and experienced wonderful hospitality. Highly recommend choosing this hotel."
