    Great location but could be a little noisy in the evening. There were some flies on the fruit at breakfast, would be nice if they were covered.

    Really helpful and friendly staff. Great decor. Very comfy bed. Location right in the centre of Valletta. Homemade and baked pastries at breakfast.

    Nothing! Our stay was perfect.

    We recently stayed at Valletta Lucente Guest House for our 5th wedding anniversary and had the most beautiful stay. The guest house is charming upon arrival with an abundance of historical features, gorgeous high ceilings in the breakfast room and various murals on the staircase walls of the hallway. All of the staff were so welcoming when we checked in and kindly spent time showing us places of interest on the map, many of which we wouldn’t have known to have visited. We can’t express how stunning our room was! We stayed in the suite which was honestly the most beautiful hotel room we have ever stayed in. Our room was also decorated for our anniversary with swans and rose petals which was a lovely touch. The location is excellent, you step straight out of the guest house into the heart of Valletta and within minutes you can walk to all of the main attractions and enjoy dinner at one of the restaurants on the stairs which had a lovely atmosphere. We also loved the ceramic shop within reception, all of which are handmade, and purchased a beautiful ceramic tile which is so unique and reminds us of our holiday. We highly recommend this guest house and will be booking to stay again next year as we plan more trips to Valletta.

    The room is a little dark.

    The room is in a beautifully restored old building. The bathroom is big with a great shower. The air conditioning works well and the hotel is right in the middle of town. The room is full of antiques and artwork.

    Mattresses could be swapped sooner rather than later

    Lovely interior with a lot of space to feel at home. Little messages and flours to welcome us. Although it is located in one of the busiest and most photographed streets in Valletta, sound proofing does the job and you can still sleep. The breakfast is an exceptional with loads of selfbaked goods. Alex who served us on our first morning was great and very knowledgeable!

    All was fantastic

    First of all MALTA it's more beautiful than we can imagine. A perfect combination between the old style with many Romans, African and personal influences. In five days I didn't have time to be bored. Mdina Rabat, Comino Island with Blue Lagoon were my favorites. They know how to make the tourist relax by providing many facilities at low prices. The food is delicious starting with the many kinds of rabbit dishes which is traditional and cheap. The inhabitants give you a sense of peace through their authentic way of behaving. Malta is also accessible to tourists with a limited budget VALLETTA LUCENTE GUEST HOUSE combines the new with the old but also with the traditional in a unique and personal way. The accommodation conditions were beyond expectations. The hosts are very welcoming, assisting with discretion so that we have everything we need. This Guest House it has one of the best positions in Valletta, being located in the most beautiful area with the most popular restaurants and shops, close to the famous St. John's Cathedral. The breakfast is really fabulous and for all tastes. Every day someone discreetly cleans the room. Moreover, discretion is one of the qualities of this place On the ground floor there is also a small traditional art shop that belongs to the owners. From here you can buy a lot of things made by the hosts themselves. The hosts manage to make you feel indeed truly at home. I am overwhelmed by everything that Valletta Lucente Guest House and Malta have meant to me. Although the vacation is over, I can say that my heart is still there and I will definitely come back

    The lift was slow and operated sporadically and intermittently but it did eventually transport you where you wanted to go

    Breakfast was excellent with a great selection of cheeses, cold meats, vegetables, salads, breads, home made pastizzi, quiches, jams and chutneys. Rooms are all individually and tastefully. decorated with a unique theme and style.

    Nothing, honestly a fantastic stay.

    The location was fabulous! Really central to everything! Easy to find from the main Valletta bus station. And the staff were so unbelievably kind and thoughtful, even remembered it was our anniversary and made us little swan towels upon arrival. Would absolutely stay here again next time we come to Malta. The homemade breakfast was incredible, really authentic and delicious. The chef himself even remembered us each morning and what coffee we would order, little things like that made us feel really special and welcome.

    Spiral staircase in our room was a slight hindrance and if we have a return trip I would request a room at the rear of the hotel as the noise from the restaurants and bars in the street below is very noisy up to around eleven o’clock at night

    Ideal location for the old town not far from bus and ferry terminal, all the staff are fantastic very friendly,courteous and helpful

    The room was quirky and different to many rooms we have been in however, it was not very practical due to steps in the room and down to the toilet, it was easy to trip! The health and safety people in the UK would be shocked. The cupboard for clothes was inadequate as there was a lack of shelves so we ended living out of the suitcases. The bed was excellent as was the two terraces.

    Location was great. Staff very good and helpful.
