Located in Mellieħa and with Santa Maria Estate Beach reachable within 1 km, Gest provides a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a terrace. The property is set 2.5 km from Popeye Village, 10 km from Malta National Aquarium and 18 km from Bay Street Shopping Complex. The hostel features family rooms. Cozy, clean, balcony with a great view, everything nice and fresh and never underestimate the option to get laundry done. Washer and dryer were very good, just don't start them too late cos they can add an unplanned half an hour to your laundry time haha. Detailed instructions for everything and good communication. Bus stop is very close. Can walk to all the sights nearby if you don't hate walking. It's a hilly area, be prepared.

At follow the Sun boutique hostel - formerly inhawi hostel - it’s not just about where you sleep—it’s about where you hang out, make connections, and create memories. Chill by our pool with killer views down to the sea, kick back in our cozy lounge perfect for taking some time out after a long day of adventures, or join in one of our bar or social nights. Come join us, and soak up the good times in the heart of Malta. Calling the beautiful seaside town of St. Julian’s our home, we’re all about good vibes, new friends, and unforgettable memories. Staying with us puts you right in the middle of the action. Whether you’re here to chill and catch the sunsets on Malta’s gorgeous beaches or hit the nightlife , we are the perfect spot to experience it all. Beaches like Balluta Bay and St. George’s Bay are just a quick walk away. Plus, it’s just over the hill to the epic party scene in Paceville, and only 10 minutes from Sliema to grab a bite to eat. One of the best hostels I've stayed in Europe. Very organised, clean, friendly staff (especially Felipe!). Excellent location - close to the party area but still in a quiet space. Breakfast was good. I would certainly recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Malta.

Walter's Guesthouse is situated in Il-Gżira, 1 km from University of Malta. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and free WiFi.

At the hostel, all rooms come with a wardrobe. Rooms are complete with a private bathroom, while some units at Walters Guest House also provide guests with a balcony. Absolutely fantastic hostel! I fell in love with Malta just because of this place. And to be honest I felt in love with Mark as unbelievable kind and warm-hearted and respectful person! Unfortunately I’m a man, so I cannot marriage with him😁 If think God is love, it means you never meet before Mark, because he is heaven sentured God’s angel on this planet. Absolutely safety, comfortable, 1000% clean hostel with a perfect rooms, beds, full equipped kitchen and bathrooms and such a cool terrace in the roof, that you even can not imagine it! Mark explained everything about Malta and the best and cheapest places around the hostel, gave so good recommendations for the poor guy like me where/when/how I can enjoy my few days off on this beautiful island. You never ever find even the 5* hotel better than Walter’s B&B hostel. The rating must be changed by the name of this lovely hostel because 5* aren’t enough to describe the best service of whole my 30 years of life! As a Michelin star restaurant cook I can say that in the restaurants rating this hostel 10* Michelin from the 3* possible. Really strong recommendation for you all my dear travelers!
