Great location shame about the food
The hotel has a feel of a transit camp as so many people arrive and depart from the rather small entrance, with piles of luggage waiting. The building is very old and in parts is beatiful, but is creaking and needs to be updated in oher parts. The food was terrible, breakfast used very cheap products being used, poorly cooked and very prefunctionary service. The evening meal was so unimaginative and slapped out on the buffet with no thought of a whole menu. Again the cheapest and often frozen products were used. I only managed one meal and went and found a small Maltese bistro serving good simple fresh local produce. Why cannot the Osborne do this? I met someone who had stayed last year who said the food then was really good and was mystified what had happened. The small roof terrace and plunge pool was good, although the sunbeds were chained down ! Wonderful views of the whole of the island from roof. The saving grace was the location, right in the centre of Valletta, but quiet at night. Yes I would return, but only for the location and would be fussy on which room I had as some are very dark with fusty carpets and electric light was required all day. You get what you pay for and I would suggest room only basis. Only just a three star hotel in my opinion.
Traveller's tip on local attractions
Do take a trip around the Valletta harbours, on the smallest boat you can find. It gives you the understanding of what the Island is all about, it is awesome to look up at the fortifications and realise it was achieved without machinery, only slaves!

WHAT FACILITIES
Very disappointed with this Hotel. Pool not open, why? Restaurant like a school dinner thing ONLY buffet available even breakfast and no variety same every day and one of those awful tea/coffee/juice machines. No mini bar in room and enough tea/coffee for one cup!!! TV not tuned correctly. No, on the whole would not recommend this hotel, oh yes the awful room key system does not work either!!!!!!
