Karla, Brazil

It is in a great position, right in the centre of the old town and looking over the harbour ( although my room was at the back with views of the amazing streets if you stuck your head out the window).

Gayle, Australia

Nice reception, helpful staff, great views from the roof terrace.

Anonymous, United Kingdom

Excellent location,very central and near the ferries to cross to Senglea,the 3 beautiful cities in front of Valletta(But little bit of stairs upwards to the main pedestrian streets).Clean and quiet.Magnificent view from the sea view rooms,worth paying extra for one of them(Book early for best price).Very big room with a sofa,armchairs and tables.Really nice balcony.Big breakfast,but you can eat cheaper and more traditionally at a pastizzi shop nearby(Also good for lunch)Mini market near.And you can print your boarding pass at the reception.All in all,good value per money,comparing to Valletta prices.

Socrates, Greece

The view from the room was beyond my expectations, the beds were very comfortable and clean.

Michelle, United Kingdom

The location is obviously great. The quality of services varies significantly between one staff member and another - mostly very nice and helpful.

Paul, United Kingdom

Perfect location close to the centre of Valletta and the main bus terminal. Great views if you get a sea view room. If a sea view room is outside your budget, head to the roof terrace. Very comfy beds.

The longest established hotel in Valletta, Hotel British is set in a pleasant, terraced street. The restaurant serves traditional Mediterranean food and overlooks the Grand Harbor.

Family owned and managed, British Hotel offers free Wi-Fi throughout. You can enjoy sea views at the restaurant and bar. Both Continental and English breakfasts are available at an extra charge. Lunch and dinner are served daily in the Panorama restaurant overlooking the Grand Harbor.

All rooms have a private bathroom and face the street, while some have a sea view.

The British is close to Valetta’s shopping area and just a 10-minute walk from the bus terminus.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.6 for a two-person trip.

An Inside Look at British Hotel

The British hotel is one of Malta s oldest family hotels. It has one of the best locations ovlooking the famous Grand harbour which throughout the island s history has played an important role especially in 1565 Great Siege against the Ottoman Turks. In 1566 Valletta was built and later , the hotel served as lodgings for the Knights of St John of Jerusalem. It also survived the bombardment of the second World War....In fact the family Montebello recalls one close occassion when a bomb fell clsoe by anddestroyed several wooden balconies and all the glass at the hotel. During the 20th Century the hotel served as a meeting place for several offcicers and soldiers for the British forces residing in Malta till 1979 when the last British soldier left the island. Since then there were many occasions when the hotel was used for location for various TV and movies amongst them Munich directed by Steven Spiegal. There were also several musicians artists and writers residing ..amongst others Philip Nicholson also known as A J Quinnell who wrote most of his famous novel Man on Fire (also a blockbuster movie) whilst residing in the hotel for over a year.
