Nice apartment in Valletta
Posted 29 Sep 2021 on HotelsNice apartment just outside the busiest area of Valletta. All within walking distance of Valletta's main sites. Spacious apartment with bedroom, kitchen area and bathroom. Nice shared rooftop terrace with small jet-tub. However, there is no reception and we didn't have any housekeeping/cleaning for the 7 nights we were there, but we did receive some fresh towels towards the end of our stay. We would definitely stay here again.

The location was excellent it was situated right in the centre of Valleta which meant you were always within a short distance of the bars, restaurants and shops.
The accommodation was clean and tidy with good air con, an essential during August.
I would be happy to recommend to anyone wanting a city centre location.

Kursara Appartment
Posted 18 Jun 2019 on HotelsPositives: location, roof top pool lovely to come back and sit in or next to with a beer after a day's sightseeing , daily cleaning, comfortable bed, plenty of hot water, a lift so easy to take cases up, free water machine in the lobby (save your bottles and top up) , number key pad so no key to lose. Not so positive: despite phoning twice to say we would be there at 2 the rep did not get there until 10-15 mins past 2, and we were not the only people waiting to check in, but check in was quick once in the flat. The room was large and open plan but there was a slight smell of damp and some of the paintwork was peeling (flakes onto the bathroom floor), the sheets also smelt musty at first but this wore off. The first night someone left the spa pool running and this was above our room (no 4) so it was noisy (we didn't realise what the noise was until the next day), the air con leaked initially so we had to put the bin under to collect water so we didn't leave it running, but there was a fan over the bed so it wasn't a problem and this was resolved after a couple of days. We were there for 4 nights, the apartment was well located for us, but be aware the streets are steep and you are going to have to do some walking, potentially in the heat. Overall it was a good base and reasonably priced for this area of the city. We had an early return flight so booked a taxi via the rep which came on time, only cost a few euros more than our taxi from the airport and was a better car too.

Dear Maria, thank you for your comments and please accept our apologies for the late arrival of our greeter. This was mainly due to the fact that the number of arrivals at that time was significantly higher than normal. With regards to the slight smell of damp, unfortunately, this is a common occurrence in Valletta due to the age of the buildings and the Maltese climate which is quite humid. Regards...Paul

Great location for exploring Valetta. Shower was excellent - great water pressure and temperature. Only downsides were that the 'hot tub' on the roof was most definitely not hot at all, not even a little bit warm. Also, there was a lot of building work going on very close to the hotel so we woke up to the sound of pneumatic drills at 7am every morning. However, that's not the hotel's fault. The stay overall was very good.

It is a nice property, but the location is a bit noisy and lacking suitable shops to buy food. It's only a short walk to Valletta city centre.

Nice place. Potential to be great.
Posted 29 Oct 2018 on HotelsThere were issues with water leaking, leaving the walls damp in certain places, and even had black mold growing in certain areas.
There was no coffee maker in the space, which would have been very helpful to have in the morning of a very busy business trip.
Mario was very sweet when he let me in.

Apartment in heart of Valletta
Posted 1 Oct 2018
Pros: Character of the place , our shower was beautifully hot. To be honest we didn’t use any of kitchen facilities. Has a lift too.
Location: If not very mobile, Valletta and it’s streets are very hilly. Did loads of walking. Caught local bus to go out, only €2 each, where ever we went!
Our apartment was a traditional old Maltese building, reminded bit like Venice, in heart of Valletta.
Felt very safe and people friendly.
Yes it’s noisy, but building not double glazed as very old, and it is right in heart of city amongst other residents . We were fine with it, it’s what adds to life’s richness., go to other places to experience different lifestyles.
Loved the freedom to do as we pleased. The company who ran the apertment were very nice, n our towels were changed daily n bed made, which I didn’t expect. Thought they’d pop in only couple of times, so this was very nice.
Our apartment had a small roof terrace with little spa type pool, but didn’t use, as weather wasn’t good.
Buses are by far, best way around island, cheap. Went to medina, beautiful walled ‘silent’ city. Popeye’s village was lovely, had to go there for grandchildren sake, but great place, can spend whole day there, use beach too and splash play/Park area. Ferry used to pop over to sliema , cheap again, can get other boat trips from here.

Overall super happy with this property. It was very close to the water, st. Elmo/ war museum, and the city centre. The hot tub on the roof was a very nice touch.
