"Amazing location right next to Sliema Ferry station with a breathtaking view of Valletta. The apartment was well-equipped, modern, clean and comfortable. The staff was very helpful and welcoming. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and bars nearby. We got access to an outdoor pool at Manta Beach Club just across the street, which was also quite nice, even though we could not use it due to the weather. I would definitely recommend this place and would return any time."

Top Fort St. Elmo Hotel Reviews

Grand Hotel Excelsior

10/10 Excellent

"Disappointed with the complicated TV set up..you have to be magical to work their TV. Could not work nor get any TV to watch World Cup soccer. Downstairs wall TV was ok but very noisy patrons while trying to watch the great soccer games. Not happy about soccer TV"

Barceló Fortina Malta

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, staff was helpful and very much on top of everything. Only challenge was having to pre-book sun beds by the pool. While the pool itself was freely accessible the sun beds needed prior reservation and most times were fully booked. Other than that excellent stay! Also was happy with how close the hotel was to the ferry."

San Karlu Hotel

8/10 Good

"All of the staff were friendly from the moment we checked in until we left which given that it was at 3.30 am they were still smiling (Michael) The room was clean and every day it was the same high standard, breakfast was very good, again the staff were outstanding in their service, nothing was too much trouble. A good variety of food on offer, we were even given a breakfast to take with us when we left as it was so early in the morning, a really lovely unexpected gesture. The downside to the hotel was the room had only one window which faced the corridor, there wasn't much natural light, you had to have the lights on day or night. The air conditioning was very powerful even on the lowest setting and situated so it blew cold air right onto your head, as we couldn't get any air from the window it meant we were up and down turning the air con on and off throughout the night. I would book to stay here again if I could have a different room as the location was also good, but beware there are a lot of steps to navigate before you can even get into the hotel."

Melior Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"It was difficult to find initially and we were followed into the lift by pickpockets which would be avoided if there was a reception. However, the staff did help in reporting this. The location was so central with excellent access to the centre of Valletta. The room was comfortable and well apportitioned with fridge, microwave and kitchen all clean and fully operational, even had an ice tray. Sofas and bed were super comfy and the AC was great. Highlight was sitting in the balcony watching the hustle of the city go by late at night."

Palais Le Brun

10/10 Excellent

"From the moment we arrived the staff were exceptional, so friendly and helpful. Reception, the breakfast waiting staff and the lovely bartender at the pool (who made excellent cocktails!) - every one of them was brilliant. The breakfast was also fantastic, the room beautiful with a great bed and the serene rooftop pool area just what we needed after mornings sightseeing! Don’t hesitate to book this lovely hotel, we didn’t want to leave!"
