Osborne Hotel

the location

Yes, they were closing down on the day we left, and had a crane out 3 days before, to take hotel rubble down.The breakfast was poor.

Position is excellent for sightseeing in Valletta. Staff were very welcoming and helpful - allowed us to leave bags when we returned from Gozo and had time before our flight.

non-smoker hotel; close to main street as well as bus terminal; well situated to visit interesting sites of Valletta

rooms to the back are not recommended, since several have only white tinted windows and an ugly view to the backyard, even you could see the sea when the windows were opened; beds in our room were rather old and worn out

The Osborn is well located and the rooms are generally nice. As the location is within the older part of Velletta there is very little night noise. It was a very comfortable place to stay. The hotel was happy to allow us to keep one of our room longer for no extra charge as we had a later flight.

Unfortunately our room had a leaky shower and the amentities were not very well located in the room - eg the television was on a wall where it was difficult to see from the bed. Our friends room was better set up.

The location near the main street, near the main bus station and near the meeting point for day tours. The room was big enough.

The room and the bath had windows to a very narrow interior 'hole", full with pipes. The worst thing was the very strong smell of cigarettes in the room and in bathroom. In the first night , because of smell of the smoke, I could not sleep . However, our friend who had another room, had not these problems, so I suppose that this is not a attribute of the whole hotel, but only of some rooms.

Location was great and very good relation price/quality.

For the price I paid, I cannot complain about anything.

The fact that it was within easy reach of all facilities including shopping and tourist attractions

The en-suite bathroom was too small and looked tired and the room could have been bigger

Good location in UNESCO site, however rooms were musty smelling & water leaking from AC onto a wet rug necessitated a room change, which the manager was very helpful with, while explaining that a renovation was planned for all rooms in the coming year.

The Osborne proved to be both comfortable and professionally run. Our room and the various public areas were clean and well maintained. We had dinner in the restaurant both evenings of our stay, taking advantage of a special offer, and were impressed with the standard of food. The hotel's location is another factor in its favour, being convenient not only for exploring Valletta, but also to the bus terminus and the ferry to Sliema. We were lucky to get one of the rooms with a balcony and had an atmospheric view down a steep side street to an historic church. We would happily recommend this hotel to others.

Very good location and marvellous view from the rooftop

Nice location in central Valletta, close to the main bus terminal and city sights. Nice first floor lounge and bare.

Room was dark and didn't smell clean.

perfect positioning in Valletta

furniture dating far back in time (not in a good sense); very very uncomfortable mattresses; dirty towels, dirty carpet; I think our floor (there may be others) was not renovated, whilst other were
