Absolutely fantastic location!! We also stayed at The Phoenician for 3 nights (after staying at this hotel) and we wished we hadn’t left the Cugo Gran. This hotel is just perfect and boutique with incredible staff. I loved the area and felt like we could explore Malta and still come back to a beautiful and peaceful home base. We had our 6 month old baby with us and put our in-laws / grandparents in a separate room for the family vacation and eveybody LOVED it!

No VIP attention. They made us leave before checkout so they could accommodate the next guests arriving 2.5 hours before checkin.

The only place I want to stay when I come to Malta
I cannot recommend this hotel enough. I walked passed it on my last visit to Malta and was determined to stay there on my next visit. The room, food, cocktails, pool, service etc. were all top notch! I won't consider staying anywhere else on my next visit to Malta. We had to move rooms but the staff contacted us and made the process incredibly simple, with the room upgrade very much appreciated. Special shout outs to Valentina, Martha and Qwin but all the staff were brilliant. Get a daquiri in the happy hour, you won't regret it!

Big rooms with a comfortable bed, shower room was nicely finished. The hotel had a pool on the roof terrace with great views overlooking the harbour. Restaurant food was very good. Things to improve - the suite we stayed in was damp, it had a dehumidifier in it which needed emptying regulary. The pool was dirty with debris at the bottom and floating.

Spacious hotel with delightful staff.
Staff without exception were delightful and very helpful. Room was spacious and clean. Bed linen disappointing- polyester/cotton and frankly has seen better days- not however as bad as the towels and robes. They were greying , thin and rough and robes were torn in places. Brought to attention of front desk but replaced with equally old ones. Not anywhere near 5star. Rooms overlooking harbour are quite noisy from early morning and in the evenings even with windows shut. Breakfast in hotel was nice but very expensive- although one could eat a lot if one was up to it as the price was the same. Dinner in Little Bastion was pretty disappointing. Cold bendy old chips ( sent back) and pretty flavourless fish with uncertain sauces. And quite expensive tho service was good. Pool area very nice and pool menu tasty. We enjoyed our stay and the hotel’s situation away from central Valletta , but there is room for improvement in one or two areas.

Lovely property and fantastic staff who made us feel so welcome. From the first moment when we arrived to when we left it seemed nothing was too much trouble. Perfect balance of professionalism and friendliness from all the staff, and the room was outstanding. We wish the Little Bastion had been open more than just the Friday and Saturday nights as food was excellent, but no shortage of restaurants in walking distance nearby. Great location too for getting around the island especially with the convenient ferry into Valletta. Really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Lovely hotel with huge rooms and convenient!
This hotel was amazing. It’s built within an old fortress and there was some work being done for maintenance, but that is of course inevitable. If not for the maintenance, it would have been 5 stars all the way. The junior suite was huge, especially by European standards. Highly recommend to anyone who wants an interesting and unique high end experience. The only downside is there is only dinner on Friday and Saturday nights but they have a great wine collection to take back to your room and plenty to eat near by! Loved!!!!

I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a stay close to the three cities or the Valletta area. The hotel is roughly a three minute walk to the ferry that takes you to Valletta. Impressed us most about this accommodation was the incredible staff who were extremely courteous and helpful, even going so far as to personally assist us with tracking down our lost luggage from our flight over. Our room was well kept, very clean, and offered an excellent view of the harbor. We enjoyed the Little Bastion twice for breakfast during our stay, which was delicious and convenient.
