The setting of the hotel with many rooms looking out onto Grand Harbour make it an exceptional place to stay which is further enhanced by the rooftop patio where one can enjoy refreshments whilst soaking up the exceptional ambience.
The staff and service are excellent and the hotel is maintained to a very high standard. Whilst close to the centre of Valletta be prepared for quite a few steps and slopes.

Small hotel but Great location and views of the harbour/across the bay, we upgraded to a harbour view as people had said it could be noisy the city side in hotels in valletta, not sure if this is true or not.
We had two extra enclosed balcony areas, one for luggage and the other looking over the bay with a table and 2 chairs, were we could open the windows and sit with our drinks watching the ships/fireworks (it was a bank holiday)
Never seen such fantastic fireworks.
The breakfast is help yourself but a good choice of cereals,fresh fruit,yogurt, pastries, ham & cheeses, scrambled eggs, bacon,sausage beans, tomatoes & toast.
Would recommend and was surprised it was only a two star.

We loved this hotel. It has a great position overlooking the Grand Harbour and our room with a wrap around balcony gave us a great view of Vittoriosa, one of the three cities across the water.

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.

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.

What a nice little hotel in Valletta. I booked for the harbor view and it was amazing. Our first time in Malta and this part of it is breathtaking. The room was large and comfortable and the staff were all so nice. It was so convenient to walk to everything in Valletta. There’s a rooftop area with a 360 degree view as well so take advantage of it! Breakfast was included and was great. This is a really nice hotel and you can’t beat the views!

One of the best cities in the world.

We have stayed here a few times because of the location,(amazing harbour views), close to restaurants and bars and central to everything. Valletta is stunning, great architecture and amazing artwork in the abundant churches. People everywhere, bars, restaurants, cruise ships, shops, church bells ringing, Carravagio paintings and the list goes on. Very safe place, not many maltese around though.

Book your stay here

Great place, great location with harbour views, (you have to book harbour views).
Fantastic location with some parking. Fantastic breakfast and friendly staff. No fridge in rooms is the only drawback. You might find better prices, but you won't get the views.

Its a lovely small hotel with friendly helpful staff that does an excellent included breakfast.

My only criticisms would be

1. The WiFi is tempermental and not really \"superfast\"

2. They dont really make enough of the roof terrace that gives fantastc views over the Grand Harbour...its hardly advertised in the hotel. Would have thought it would have made sense to have the small hotel bar up on the terrace rather than down by reception.

Great location but uncomfortable bed and room

Great location. 8 minute walk to bus station. Good food and atmosphere right outside your door. Moldy room and cheap uncomfortable mattress. Breakfast included was just okay, not a wide variety. On our last day the elevator was out of service and we had to carry our bags down 5 flights. Uggh

If you gave a rating of 11 out of 10 you would still be under-rating this property. The staff were brilliant and responded professionally to any request. The location was excellent in the heart of Valletta and meant walking was always enjoyable and stimulating. It was convenient to an array of dining options that would satisfy all. Highly recommended.

Good location for all main tourist spots. Nice room with views over the harbour. Staff all very pleasant.

Breakfast was limited but sufficient for my needs.

Wi-fi was very slow and connection kept dropping meaning I ended up back on data regularly.

Overall happy with my stay and would consider using this hotel if I was to return to Valletta.

This hotel is in a fabulous location with probably the best views of the grand harbour in Valletta. The decor is a little tired and old fashioned - they should really get rid of the cushions in the beds - but everything is spotlessly clean and in good working order. The staff are very helpful and friendly and go out of their way to assist you in any way they can. The breakfast is fresh and plentiful to set you up for the day. Our room was huge with a wrap around view out onto the harbour - simply wonderful although it would have been nice to have a nice comfy chair to sit and enjoy the view rather than a table and chair. The hotel is based very closed to lots of great bars and the main Merchant Street strip. This was our second stay and I know we will definitely stay again.

The Grand Harbour Hotel.

This Hotel is in the perfect location to explore Valletta. We had a room overlooking the Grand Harbour and could see the ships and boats come and go. It is a short walk into the Old Town with shops restaurant and bars. It is also a 5 min walk to the Gozo Fast Ferry from the hotel and you can see it arrive. Also the gondolas that take you to the Three Cities go from there.

Hotel is clean and the staff friendly and very helpful We just had a room and walked out every day for breakfast as there are a load of places to eat.

Set in a marvellous position, overlooking the busy Grand Harbour area. Within quick access to the centre of Valletta.
However, harbour and bars can provide a bit of noise at times.
Unfortunately had to make a complaint about fan/ generator noise coming from roof during the night, on two separate occasions.

Ok…biggest problem were the windows. It was a very windy day (not hotels fault) but the windows were very old (catches loose & falling apart) and drafts were coming through resulting in a high pitched whistle ALL night. Curtains were moving due to draft. No sleep at all. If the windows were not so old and all properly sealed, this would not have happened. I have a video of this taken at 4am!

Flashing warning Lights in our room included, green flashing lights for smoke, two x red lights flashing all night for sensors. Red Tv light on, blue cable box on all night. This and the huge noise of wind and whistling was not indifferent to being in an emergency aeroplane landing that took 8 hours to land!

Towels old and small and need to be changed. Pillows lumpy. Furniture old and dated.

Bathroom toiletries laughable! 2 x shower and bath bottles half the size of my little finger. I got my right leg washed as my wife did with her bottle and we are not big!

One piece of soap smaller than an after eight mint!

Bed was a sheet with a bed cover….no duvet.

On the plus side….amazing view of the harbour! And great location for the price.

Shower was very pleasant too….shame about the soap and gel!

Fantastic harbour views from the roof terrace!

This is superb location to see Valletta with amazing views over the harbour.

We were fortunate enough to have one of the rooms that had its own terrace, but the terrace on the 7th floor, which all residents can use is fantastic.

If we ever visit Valletta again, we will strive to get the same room.

Grand Harbor Hotel

The room I had, #101, is the room with both the balcony and the classic Valletta box-bay window that you can see in the picture at left at lower most left corner of the picture. There is a large diversity to the rooms on offer. There is no gym, the bar is small and the breakfast is 'full-english' and while it is a modest spread, the food was good. The room was all tile and marble, ~13' x 13' plus the walk in box-bay area, ~3' x 7' and a small walk in bump out to access the balcony via french doors. The bathroom was large with a long tub and shower combo. There was a hotel sized desk, coffee maker, iron, blanket, extra pillows and with the box-bay and french doors and even a window in the bathroom the cross ventilation was excellent as was the A/C. Hotel's claim to fame is its views which were excellent in both the daytime and the nighttime. It is very centrally located just two blocks from the cathedral, however the elevation up to the main part of the city is ~ a 200 foot climb. So be prepared to climb some 70 to 100 stairs up and still have some more incline to reach level, main city ground. Staff was very friendly. Many good eateries and places for drinks nearby one right outside the hotel with an alfresco terrace (drinks not dinner) and several even as you climb those steps. Very good value for the price. I would consider staying again.
