Would love to stay again!

This place is just lovely! The stag was nice, it was clean and updated but authentic. It's in a perfect spot if you want to catch a ferry or go for a harbor cruise. We even had a amazing view of the harbor!

Central hotel with roof-top patio

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel and it was good for our 3 nights. The room was small but comfortable. For older, less able, folks it was a steep walk up to the main streets of Valletta. The best features of the hotel were a good breakfast (included) and the amazing view from the roof-top balcony.
John, 3-night trip

The view from our room is fantastic. The service and the breakfast are great. The location is the best for me since we have lots of dining options.

Lovely stay at the Grand Harbour Hotel

Loved this privately-run hotel. It's a great price for Valletta, especially since breakfast is included. Unfortunately I didn't manage to get a harbour view room, so had windows but no view. I was on the 6th floor, just a few steps from the lovely rooftop terrace which overlooks the Three Cities. You'll get fit here - there are quite a lot of steps up to the main drag of Valletta. Take the ferry to Birgu for a wander around and to see Fort St Angelo. Upon return to Valletta, you can take the Barrakka Lift - it's only a euro each way if buying a ticket, but is included at no extra cost in the ferry ticket.

The location of this hotel is amazing. We booked a harbour view room and it was just wow! Views across the Grand Harbour to Fort St Angelo and the three cities. Some of the best views of Malta from our room window. Staff were very nice. We would definitely recommend.

Well located accommodation, Clean & Great Friendly Staff. Our budget room was a bit small but I suppose that is what we paid for. Very good breakfast. Well worth considering if staying in Valletta!
