What Guests Say About Their Stay

We stayed at The Barrister Hotel in Valletta to celebrate the New Year and had a wonderful time. The hotel location is excellent, in the centre of the city, and close to the main tourist attractions, bars, restaurants, buses and ferries. All the staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. Our room was a good size and comfortable, with all the amenities we needed, including a good sized walk-in shower. There was some noise from the local bars, due to being so central, but keeping the windows closed kept most of the noise out. Earplugs were provided but not needed. The continental breakfast was fresh with a good variety to choose from and staff were very attentive, offering a range of hot and cold drinks. We would recommend the Barrister to anyone wanting a boutique experience in the heart of Valletta.

All was good, but the bathroom is not appropriate to just take shower. Planned to have bath all the time. Also very noisy at night because close to the clubs.

Overall, exceeded expectations. It’s perfect for both short and longer stays in Malta, offering the comfort of a luxury with the convenience of being in the city center. Highly recommended!

The room was fine although little natural light as we were looking out at a wall across a narrow street, although the details said ‘city view’. The hotel management are very helpful about what to do and see. From the pictures on the website we were expecting a roof terrace for hotel guests however the roof terraces are attached to 3 rooms on the top floor only. There is no bar in the hotel which is unusual. The noise of the loud music coming from the bars around the corner into the early hours of the morning is awful, then the nearby construction work starts up before 7am. There seems little the hotel can do about this currently.

Great location, lovely hotel, immaculately clean. Warm welcome, very friendly & helpful staff, manager Mark gave good advice for walking in the countryside. Room very spacious & comfortable. Good selection of items for breakfast. Would benefit from a bar, although there are plenty around. Major downside for me was the nightime noise from a neighbouring bar, it was SO LOUD and on Fri/Sat/Sun nights, this noise went on until 05:30-06:00 the next morning, from people singing, shouting & screaming. Not as noisy for as long, on weekdays, maybe the bar shut earlier than on the weekend. I sleep with silicone earplugs & music still too loud to sleep for me, husband coped a bit better as he would sleep on a washing line, during a firework display, though he was kept awake too at times. Local rules/street signs say noise to be kept down after 23:00 for the locals, but this is not enforced. Really enjoyed the break though, lots to see & do across Malta/Gozo/Comino, buses good but very busy. Fast ferries & gondolas good too. Everyone out & about very friendly, good range of restaurants to eat at, English widely spoken.

The staff were nice and the hotel is beautiful but overall this is overpriced The main issue for us was the noise in our room coming from adjacent bars. There is not much to the hotel apart from a breakfast room, and the hero picture is misleading as it is a private terrace which is not accessible to most rooms We later stayed in a nicer, cheaper hotel very close

Really enjoyed my time here - spent a week and was a lovely little home base in Malta. Rooms all very thoughtfully designed with high-quality linens and toiletries. Breakfast was above and beyond relative to a boutique hotel of this size, with plenty of delicious options and an extremely attentive staff. Everyone in the hotel was very kind and welcoming, and hotel owner Mark goes out of his way to get to know his guests and provide everything they need to have a wonderful stay. If you’re looking for a chain-style hotel with silent rooms and an enormous buffet, I might look elsewhere, but if you want to stay at a lively, top-quality boutique hotel at the heart of a European city, Barrister is the place to go. I swear by Rick Steves in Europe and could definitely see this spot in his guide if he had one for Malta. The excellent ratings are well-earned.

A bit noisy late in the evening from neighbouring bars but did not detract from the overall excellent experience. Would certainly recommend.

Outstanding in every way! The room was very well appointed, bed was comfortable, and service was spot-on! Breakfast was fresh and tasty. The manager was like a casual concierge, providing ideas and information to make our trip even better. I give the Barrister 11 out of 10!
