The location of this beautifully presented, clean and comfy one bedroom apartment is a walking distance from the airport and that was exactly what we were looking for as we wanted to walk to the airport rather than rely on taxis or public transport for our very early morning flight. The communication with the host was prompt and efficient, clear instructions on how to find the apartment were given. There were plenty of useful information about the immediate area as well as Malta and Gozo Islands. Kitchen was well equipped with clear instructions on how to use the appliances, eg coffee machine (very thoughtful as we stayed in so many apartments where we couldn't work out how to use different brands of coffee machines). Bed was comfortable, with a/c and ceiling fan. We would definitely recommend this apartment to others and would stay there ourselves again. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Olga Suites in Luqa is an absolute gem. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by how sleek, stylish, and sexy the space felt. The design is modern and minimal, yet still warm and inviting — it gives boutique hotel vibes with the comfort of a private apartment. Every corner is immaculate, and the finishes are high-end, making it the perfect space to relax, recharge, or even enjoy a romantic stay. The suite itself is spacious, beautifully lit, and thoughtfully laid out. The bed is incredibly comfortable, the bathroom is spotless and modern, and the entire apartment feels brand new. Every little detail has been taken care of, from the lighting to the layout — it’s clear the hosts take pride in offering a high-quality experience. The location is another major highlight. Luqa is hands-down one of the best spots to stay in Malta. It’s super central, meaning you’re never far from anywhere on the island — and best of all, you’re just 2 minutes from the airport, which makes travel seamless and stress-free. Despite its convenience, the area is peaceful, giving you a break from the crowds while still being incredibly accessible. The hosts were also fantastic — responsive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. Check-in was smooth, communication was great throughout, and they made sure I had everything I needed. Whether you're visiting for a quick getaway, a romantic weekend, or a longer stay, Olga Suites is the perfect base in Malta. I’ll definitely be returning and recommending it to everyone I know!

Guest review
This hotel was clean, charming, and very welcoming. Conveniently located, it’s right across from the “Bormla” bus stop, making it easy to visit Valletta and other attractions. The hotel uses a single card key for both the entrance and the room, ensuring secure and flexible access at any time. The room was spotless and comfortable, with clean toilet and shower facilities. While the storage shelves were quite high, they provided a special stick to help access them, so it wasn’t an issue. The room included BF-type outlets and USB-A ports, which was very convenient. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive. On the first night, I found the room a bit cold and requested an extra blanket. They responded promptly and later even replaced it with a winter duvet when I mentioned I was still chilly. Breakfast is served from 8:30 AM at the café on the first floor. You can choose your favorite pastry and drink, and they’ll warm them up for you. Although the menu mostly featured sweet pastries, they kindly provided simple toast upon request when I mentioned preferring plain bread. If I ever visit Malta again, I would definitely stay here. It was a wonderful experience. Thank you so much!

The hotel is in the close proximity to Valletta as well as the bus station that holds the main line to the airport. The staff were professional. I loved several thoughful details such as free tea and coffee at the lobby (small cakes included). It was the small but meaningful and subtle touch that made the stay memorable (and I’m not that parcimonious at all). Others hotels should draw inspiration from this one.

A new hotel in the newly revamped palazzo. Amazing huge room with a big bathroom and balcony overlooking the garden! Perfect for that luxury stay. Hotel is located below 10 mins away from the airport, perfect for a quick stopover. Breakfast is located in a beautifully decorated room and food is amazing! Servers from the restaurant were polite and welcoming, specially want to mention Deepak, Salman and Vishal! They went to the extra mile to check in with guests during breakfast and made it exceptionally special!

I stayed in Gudja as a base to travel around the southern part of Malta for 11 days. It was perfect, Gudja is beautiful quiet town, it felt safe and was an excellent area to stay in, away from the hustle and bustle of the more touristy areas of Malta easy access by bus to beaches/ restaurants / boat trips in Marsakala, Marsaxlokk, Birzebugga, St Thomas Bay, Blue Grotto etc also regular buses to Valletta.

We didn't get to see as much of the town as we wanted, since we only stayed 2 days and bused into Valletta and Mdina both days. But in Hal Saflieni we visited a pastry shop with absolutely delicious food, and a grocery store where an employee immediately struck up a conversation with us in Italian and was super friendly. I would have loved to explore longer!

We were incredibly lucky to stay there during the local festa, which was an amazing, colorful, and lively experience for the whole family! The neighborhood feels very safe and traditional, away from the tourist crowds. It is also very conveniently located, making it easy and quick to travel to Valletta or the airport.

We really enjoyed staying in Qormi.

We really enjoyed staying in Qormi. We felt very safe in the area, even when returning late at night. Qormi is not the most modern or seaside part of Malta, but this is something you are aware of when choosing the location, and for us it was not a problem. What we appreciated most was the location in terms of transport. Qormi is conveniently situated between Valletta and the airport, which gave us very good public transport connections to practically the whole island. We usually needed just one change of bus at most to reach our destinations, and the connections were generally reliable. The area also felt more local and authentic, with more residents than tourists, which we personally enjoyed. There is a supermarket within walking distance of the accommodation, with everything we needed for groceries and everyday necessities. We did not explore Qormi itself very extensively, as we mostly used it as a convenient base for exploring the rest of Malta. For us, it was a great choice because it offered a quieter and more local atmosphere while still being well connected and relatively close to the main tourist destinations.

Wandering through the narrow streets, discovering an authentic Maltese village, meeting friendly locals, and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere made our stay truly special. Żurrieq is a quiet and charming place, yet conveniently located just a short distance from the airport and the capital city. A wonderful place to experience the authentic side of Malta.

We stayed here so we could visit family and friends.

We stayed here so we could visit family and friends. As a place to stay in the summer it is not ideal. The hotel restaurant did not exist and there is nowhere nearby to eat. We had to travel to Paola to eat. It is a good basis to see the south of the island, however it is very built up and not as beautiful as the north of the island. Finding somewhere to swim is a challenge -the hotel pool is very small and shallow and few places to sit around the pool as it is mainly a snack bar. the pictures are not representative of the pool. Overall it was disappointing given the price. Better to stay there in the winter as a base from which to explore the history of the island, or as an overnight retreat. The only plus were the staff who were very kind and it was quiet !
