Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomAlthough not a real problem, all the rooms could benefit from tea and coffee making facilities. Also the downstairs toilet facilities should be cleaned more often and could certainly have a means of shutting and locking the doors!
Location was perfect and the staff were excellent and able to assist with any questions and requests. The room was comfortable, if a little tired. Fresh towels and room cleaned every day. breakfast was good, with a good selection of food, both hot and cold.....

United KingdomBreakfast options a little limited and ran out, however the staff were topping up as often as they could, noise from works next door woke us very early but these are small things and the hotel was very good otherwise
All staff were wonderfully welcoming and friendly, perfectly located, I’ll definitely stay again and will bring more family. The reception staff were so lovely and very helpful, the hotel is beautiful and very well maintained overall.

United KingdomBreakfast was very monotanous, no variation the whole stay. We were permanently having to ask for glasses, cups and refills of the food and drinks available regardless of arriving early or lateish . Very grumpy breakfast staff more intent on getting you out than ensuring refills and crockery etc was sorted. Sad as the breakfast room has panoramic views.
Great location. Lovely big room and comfy bed. A bit dusty and as the door didn’t fit well a bit noisy.

AustraliaThere was nowhere to relax, and have a cup or tea or coffee at the end of a busy day. Truly missed kettle facilities in the room. Yes, there is a coffee shop attached to hotel, but closed at 5 pm and it wasn't the sort of place to relax and kick off one's shoes!
Staff were all smiling, very informed, and helpful. The breakfasts were great. Loved the touch of Easter eggs on breakfast table on Easter Sunday.

I loved the location, just a minute walk to Upper Barrakka Gardens and other Valletta's main attractions. A very clean hotel and filling breakfast served on the top floor need to be mentioned too. The kind reception staff made us feel very welcome.

LithuaniaWe stayed over the weekend and our window was facing the street, it was quite noisy. On saturday 7am builders started the work next door :( Also, an old tap needs replacing and the water from the shower was flooding the floor in the bathroom (room no 8). Would have been nice to have a kettle in the room with some coffee/tea.
Beautiful old building dating back to 16th century. Amazing location, next to Barraka gardens! Kind and helpful staff. Good breakfast

United KingdomThe decor of the hotel is a bit tired and could do with a refresh. In one of our rooms there was also no shower curtain which meant the bathroom floor was prone to being wet.
The hotel was very well located for attractions in Valleta and the staff were welcoming and friendly. The breakfast also provided a good choice of food. The beds were very comfortable

This hotel has the best location in Valletta . Only a short walk from the bus station and centre . On the doorstep of the Barrakka Gardens . Very friendly staff and reasonably priced if all you want is a convenient base to explore Malta . Free safe
