Stayed here for 4 nights and will definitely return in future. Room was clean and spacious, staff were friendly and on hand to answer any questions. Breakfast and drinks in the bar were reasonably priced. Ideally located to all the attractions Valetta has to offer and a 10 minute walk to the ferry port and bus station if you want to venture further afield. Special mention to the lady on reception on Saturday evening who sorted out our transfer to the airport which was running late. Thank you.

“Comfortable and friendly hotel in a great location ”

I’m just back from a great week in Malta, staying at the Osborne Hotel in Valletta. The hotel is in a great location, at the end of South Street, one of the closest streets to the main city gate - it was only a ten minute walk from the bus station. It’s only a few streets from Republic Street, where most of the shops are, and Merchant Street, where lots of the restaurants are. Despite this, the street itself is quiet at night and even though my room overlooked the street, it was very quiet at night. My room was very well decorated and equipped, with tea/coffee making facilities, mini fridge, a comfortable bed and a good en-suite. All the staff were very friendly and helpful, and I was able to leave my bags at the hotel on the last day, as I had an evening flight. I had breakfast in the hotel on a couple of occasions - they have a good basic choice of cooked and continental breakfast options, and the dining room was well decorated and big enough to accommodate everyone using it. It cost €15 though, so if you only want a coffee and croissant in the morning it’s probably not for you. There’s also a hotel bar, which looked comfortable, although I didn’t use it. The other nice feature is the rooftop terrace, which has a small pool and some seats, tables and sun loungers, so if you wanted to have a relaxing time in the sun you don’t have to go anywhere. The hotel also has a small fitness suite in the basement, with a few machines - probably adequate for most people. Overall, I had a great stay, and I’d definitely go back - hard to imagine a better located hotel.

“A good 3 star despite some issues”

The location is stunning, right in the heart of Old Valetta. We were mostly happy, staying on the 5th floor, accessed by an efficient modern lift.

The location is stunning, right in the heart of Old Valetta. We were mostly happy, staying on the 5th floor, accessed by an efficient modern lift. However, there were some issues... irritating noises emanating from above when trying to sleep which we took to be plumbing,/aircon/ heating relalted. Otherwise, a quiet room. Added to which we had days with no heating which we would have liked when the weather turned chilly in the evening. We were here during perhaps exceptionally bad weather in December with very strong wind and rain...and both came in through a badly fitted old window, which wasn't great. We were quite happy with the breakfast but disappointed that the hot food wasn't hot ... presumably cooked for the opening hour but if you arrived an hour or two later it was not good ...and sugar free options were very limited. We asked for a late check-out yet despite it stating on Google that this is at 12, it is 11 and our request was refused and we had to leave our room by 11 yet there was a queue at reception so we had to wait there for half an hour! There's a luggage room but it is on the floor below down a very tight staircase and with no staff assistance. So, our departure was not the best! However, there was one very good old - school receptionist who was very pleasant and we enjoyed our chats with him when we saw him in the evening and he made up for the otherwise mostly impersonal staff.
