What's not to like about this property? I could not believe it is rated as 3star. Although the room was quite small, it was comfortable and modern - seemed newly refurbished (same with the shower room). Lots of choice for bfast and all tasted great. It is really conveniently located in a bustling area full of bars and restaurants. There were some roadworks nearby but I could not really hear them from my room. The staff were all extremely helpful and go out of their way to assist. Food at The Avenue - the restaurant affiliated with the hotel - was delicious and well-priced.

We were initially only staying the first two nights but we both became sick and had to extend the stay. Unfortunately, we were abruptly awakened by a jack hammer at 6am!!!! I used my rewards to book this room and I do not accept that. I am demanding the $101 in points be reapplied to my account. I will address the hotel about the out of pocket costs

Upon arrival and the staff were very accommodating and let us check in slightly earlier too. Despite there being works around the hotel, staff ensured we were placed in a room where we would have no disruption. Simone in particular was very helpful and helped us prepare an itinerary for our stay in Malta. And I still can’t believe this, Hotel is actually listed as a three star, the lobby and surrounding areas are great and could easily pass as a four star. The location is also incredible being in the heart of Saint Julians bay. I would highly recommend staying here.

Hotel itself is beautifully maintained, and set up as per their website for a relaxing holiday in a quiet area, breakfast was very good with wide choice of hot and cold food. Hotel is located in a generally quiet area apart from particularly one bar (see below) and 2 others (Belinnis and Ice) which are not in keeping with the hotel's ethos. Also it is away from the busy and noisy nightlife of Paceville. Also pavements around it need steam cleaning. Room was standard one but was more than big enough for 2 of us with 2 chairs and table on small balcony, shower and toiletries excellent. The 2 issues that brought the rating down were one major which was noise from Beggars Inn bar which is part of the rear of the hotel building on the ground fllor. The bar was open to 3am playing loud beat music and selling cheap shots to rowdy young persons which affected as we we were in room 302 directly above it. We did complain twice to hotel staff who said they would see what could be done e.g. possible change of room but regrettably they did not come back to us. In our opinion they should do everything in their power to get the bar shut down or the opening hours restricted say to midnight. Other more minor issue was payment for our hotel services drinks, food etc where on check out and due to a problem with their card machine they almost charged us twice but this was corrected quickly. This could be a great hotel but for a few bars around it which are aimed at a very different clientele.

Perfect stay
Travelled last minute on my own for a break. Got a deal on the hotel. And I will deffo be returning. Spotless, welcoming, great features. Got a free upgrade and the room was perfect with bubbly on arrival. Rooftop pool and sun terrace was perfect (views aren't great at the moment on one side) but it was a sun trap and chilled out the way. Staff where very friendly, plenty of towels and house keeping. Great shower, comfy beds. Fridge and Iron/board, slippers, air conditioning - spot on can't fault the place. Location is perfect too, couple of minutes walk from Spinola Bay, Paceville and the Dragonara Casino. Main Bus route and stops are a 2 minute walk. Plenty of restaurants and nightlife close by and the room was quiet of a night Thanks Valentina

I am glad that I chose to stay at Hotel Valentina. As a solo traveler, a comfortable and clean hotel with welcoming staff are very important for me. While St Julian can be quite busy in the nights, I had no major disturbances in my room and slept comfortably. Thank you to the all the staff at reception, at the bar and the restaurant. Hopefully I will get to visit again soon.
