The Saint John

"We stayed at The Saint John for a week on our first visit to Malta. The location is ideal for exploring the city. The reception and breakfast are at the sister hotel the Rosselli a couple of doors down and the service was exemplary throughout, from the way we were greeted on arrival quite late on the Sunday night with a drink and guide to what was on offer at the hotel and in Valletta (sorry we didn't get his name), to departure when we were able to come back to the hotel and relax before our late flight home. Our room at the back of the hotel (504) was really good with a lovely little balcony overlooking the city and across to the Marsamxett harbour in one direction and the Med in the other. It was at the back so we didn't get any noise from Merchants' Street at the front, although in the centre of the city complete quiet cannot be expected. It wasn't intrusive. The breakfast (in Grain St, the hotel's restaurant) was first class with Katho and the team looking after us superbly and we had a really good dinner there one night too. We also enjoyed the rooftop bar Over Grain. As and when we return to Valletta (which we're sure we will) we will definitely stay here again."

"We cannot recommend The Saint John enough for a stay in Valetta. We arrived much later than scheduled due to flight delays, however we were checked in, offered a glass of water and a much needed glass of prosecco by the kind reception staff member, who also provided some honey for my sore throat! The hotel and our room were spotlessly clean and beautifully appointed. All of the staff were amazing, professional, helpful, friendly and kind. The breakfast served in the sister hotel Rosselli a few doors down was exceptional. Katho and Marisol looked after everyone - but again, all the staff were brilliant! The lovely roof top bar was another asset for evening drinks. Other reviews have mentioned the noise from local bars, but you are in the centre of the old city, so that is part of the atmosphere. Being so central is an asset to see all of the local sights with proximity to ferries and buses for trips to visit the other delights of Malta. We cannot fault our stay. We appreciate everyone from the staff team for making our time in Malta so memorable. Best from Anne and Ed"

"We had a truly wonderful stay at this hotel in the heart of Valletta. The location is perfect for exploring the city, and the hotel itself is spotless, with beautifully maintained rooms that are both stylish and extremely comfortable. The service was exceptional throughout our stay — the reception team were warm, welcoming, and always happy to help, while the restaurant staff of Grain Street provided outstanding service and made the meal a pleasure. The food was absolutely amazing and exceeded our expectations. Overall, this was an outstanding experience from start to finish, and we would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Valletta. Well done to the entire team, and please keep up the fantastic service! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
