Giovanni was the perfect host, welcoming me to Malta with a friendly ride from the airport, despite the late hour. That and some helpful info about the local rideshare, along with this comfortable pad made for a lovely visit.

Prime location to go anywhere, view from the balcony photos below...walking the 3 cities, their beautiful churches, museums and their harbours from here is a delight, bus stops are right outside, ferry 150m down the road for Valetta (10 minutes across the harbour), most restaurants are a pleasant 10 minute walk along the marina. Martina and her staff are all excellent, respectful of privacy if you value it and will step in if assistance is required. We like continental breakfast which is very good here. The hotel was quiet at night when we were there, we were on the 4th floor, from our window you can see the yacht marina in the foreground and in the distance huge cruise ships coming and going from Grand Harbour. Martina also kindly accomodated our baggage on check-out day for a late flight home, which was much appreciated,

We had a harbor view room, which was a fantastic split level size and extremely comfortable, with great views of the harbour. The rooftop pool also had great views. Staff were attentive and friendly and the breakfasts had lots of choice. A bonus was the water taxi to Valletta was a few minutes from the from of the hotel on the harbour.

Everything was perfect. The hotel itself, staff and the attitude. Thanks to Gabriela, which was very helpful, everything was clear from the very beginning. The room was very spacious and comfortable. For the last year I've traveled a lot, and among places I've stayed - Chapter 5 is definitely the one to remember and return for the next time. There are nice restaurants in the area for the breakfast time. I recommend Busy Bee just around the corner.

Upon check in the staff was amazing we had Raja as our receptionist. We had arrived a little earlier than the check in time and was advised that our room was not ready which we completely understood. Raja offered to keep our luggage's in the hotels luggage room and we went off to have some lunch in Valletta. Upon return we got an amazing surprise that our room had been upgraded free of charge. The room was spotless and super clean. They also had a small pool in the basement which was cosy and clean. All the staff was amazing and would Definity return for another stay

Located in a quiet neighborhood, away from noisy and bustling areas, yet extremely easy and quick access such places like Valletta by boat or bus. Property was very clean and comfortable, with exceptionally friendly staff. Though they advertise as having a "Simple" breakfast included, it was actually a basket with handmade sandwich, cut fruits, crackers/cheese, drink and coffee, delivered to you room every morning - far more than what you'd expect from the word "simple" and perfect to get you fueled up for the day.

We were welcomed at the charming boutique by Prince, a very kind , helpful and happy young man who was always there for us for any assistance we needed. In my opinion its the people you meet on the way that make your stay very memorable. The hotel was perfect, it had everything you could possibly need, and had a great view from the balcony. The breakfast was excellent, and Siomare was very polite to us, always had a smile! From a combination of English breakfast, and maltese pastries, fruit, yoghurts and juice, and loads more! The breakfast area was very charming too. The location was perfect! Everything was walking distance.. the main bus station was only a 6 minute walk to other parts of malta which we found very convenient. Our experience was amazing here at the kappuccini hill boutique! Thank you again Prince! We will definitely return again very soon!

A beautiful boutique hotel with wonderful location within The Three Cities. Easy to reach Valletta and wonderful restaurants in walking distance. The staff were very welcoming, attentive, and warm. An absolute delight. Beautiful marble staircase and lovely tiles floors. The continental breakfasts were excellent with a diversity of fruits, vegetables, breads, pastries, and yoghurt. We were sad to leave.

So easy to get to Valetta ferry and good restaurants nearby. This area is quieter (not the cruise ships of people) and I think prettier. Rooms modern, with air con and smart tv, plus the roof is beautiful with the plunge pool. Croissants and/ or apples at front desk which is nice and coffee maker/ fridge in room which is what I like. Contact with owner was great and they have a personal driver ( rather than app) for those early morning pick ups.

Luqa is a quaint, tranquil village very near the airport. There are regular bus services to Valetta, so it is easy to get around. I enjoyed the low volume of traffic and there were enough stores and street vendors to buy everything I needed.

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.

Central location with good bus service to airport and other areas. The area itself is quite residential but an easy bus ride away from Valletta, Birgu and other areas where attractions are. Quieter at night time but still has food options to buy yourself or to eat out. The church is astonishing.

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!

Tarxien is a lovely, quiet, and highly authentic Maltese town. 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 the local vibe!

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 !
