The Maltese Sun is a fabulous B&B in the heart of Sliema. Within easy reach of some excellent restaurants and close to public transport. The B&B is spotlessly clean throughout. The buffet breakfast is fabulous. Jessica, in reception, and the rest of the team are amazing. Thank you.

Solo traveller. Stayed here for a week 27 Sept to 4 Oct 2025. Room was comfortable and looked to have been recently redecorated. En-suite appeared to be very new. Large TV with Netflix. Large wardrobe. Kettle and tea/coffee replaced daily. Room was cleaned daily. Comfy large bed and pillows. Nice breakfast served on the rooftop terrace. Eggs cooked to order, selection of cheese, breads etc. Tea, coffee, juice. Location is great, relatively short walk to Sliema marina and ferries to Valletta or St. Juliens and St George’s in other direction. Stayed in room 1 which was next to main entrance so some noise with other guests coming and going, but generally very quiet. Tip: Reception staff leave at 3pm so if arriving after this make sure to get the door codes in advance or the guest in room 1 might have to let you in! :)

Very lovely stay at the Maltese Sun. Breakfast on the terrace was great. The hotel looks better than the photos on the website. The bathrooms are nicely remodeled. Only thing is the common areas are hot and the drinking water is also hot.

Have you ever stayed somewhere that was just sooooooo close to hitting the mark but missed it every time? That was this place. Without question the staff were absolutely amazing. Bubbly, kind and chatty. They were honestly the best part of the place. The one tough part is the staff leaves at 3pm, so if there is a problem after, you need to call them. The room I originally had, had great AC, excellent WiFi and a working TV, but encountered a bug issue and so I called and they were quick to move me. That room had great AC, a working TV, but the WiFi was completely down for my room, even though it connected in other parts of the guesthouse. This caused some issues as that night I need to do a lot of work and so that took away from my time to explore the next day. I told the front desk the next morning and they moved me again. This room was upgraded and was very nice. Had excellent AC, okay WiFi… but the TV didn’t work. I only booked 2 nights and stayed in 3 different rooms but none of them hit the base level marks. What I can tell you is they have excellent AC! Breakfast was good, the terrace is nice and the location is easy with a 20minute walk to the ferry to Valletta. I really wanted to give them a better score, but honestly for the experience I had, the place would have needed to be cheaper for me to tolerate as many misses as there were or have given me some form of a small compensation for so many issues in a short trip.

We had a lovely stay. The hotel is located on the quieter streets behind the main road down at the waterfront which made it feel very peaceful. The room was clean and generous, a little bit of a damp smell in the wardrobe. But all in all it was great value and exactly what we needed. We enjoyed the breakfast.
