St. Julian's Bay Hotel

We have booked hotel for one week, 7 nights. We really enjoyed it! Room was big enough for 2 people, also the bathroom. Room was cleaned everyday - trash were emptied, we got fresh towels. Breakfast was OK, the choice was the same everyday - sausages, bacon, beans, bread, jam, yoghurt, eggs, etc.. It was not very diverse, but I think that everyone can find at least something to eat. Staff at breakfast was very nice, so thumbs up for them! A lot of people complained about the noise (here in the reviews) but we did not have any problems with that. Our balcony was not facing the main street, probably that is one of the reasons. Overall, it is not super fancy hotel, but good enough for the price you pay! Also, location is great. It is very "alive" area. There is also many restaurants and bars around to have a dinner or drink in the evening or morning coffee.

The hotel is located near a small city beach. Other nearby beaches are within easy walking distance. The hotel is easily reached from the airport by bus X2, which stops near the hotel, Olivier station. Breakfasts were good though monotonous. There are various restaurants around the hotel. Valletta is easily reached by bus. You can walk to the port of Sliema, where you can use a boat to take you to Valletta.

If you're travelling on a budget but not a fan of 50 people rooms like in hostels this is one of the spots to stay in. The location is fantastic - compromise between Sliema and St. Julian's XD, close to everything (including bus stops with direct transfer to Valletta and the airport), bars and restaurants on the same street, just by the Balluta Bay, the staff is polite and helpful, room's as well as common areas are clean, (rooms are also quite big based on my experiences in other European hotels). Didn't have breakfast - nothing to rate here. I took the room without the view, so no rate on this either. Overall I think this hotel is better than the rating says. Some tourists are wayyy too demanding.

Location is great. You have all you need on your feet. Restaurants, bars, easy transportation to everywhere and a lovely view from the balcony. Reception is very friendly and would like to thank one of the members, the lady from Bulgaria (I'm so sorry for my short memory with names), she is a real professional, always with a smile & nothing was too much trouble for her (plus she is gooorgeous 😃) View from balcony is beautiful and there is a pool where teams are training every night, offering us something nice to watch while enjoying our drinks. Rooms are spacious and had some good nights sleep as beds were comfy. There are coffee and tea making facilities in the room and shower amenities so there was nothing we were missing.

Great location but very good value. Substantial choice for breakfast and friendly polite and just nice staff. comfortable bed. Tea trays and effective a/c is n room. Balcony with chair. Very clean hotel overall. Usual noise of being in a tourist area by some nice restaurants etc but nothing too troubling.
