We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Palazzo Violetta at the end of April 2024. The hotel is spotless, the staff were friendly and helpful and we will stay here again, it is a very good location for buses/ferries but we will request a different room. We were located at the front of the hotel and it was quite noisy, we could have asked to move rooms but did not want to re-pack so we just endured the noise. The walk back to the hotel is all uphill which is fine if you are mobile. There are not many restaurants within immediate walking distance however there were more along the seafront facing Valletta. There are a few coffee shops within walking distance, but prices seemed to vary, we were able to request coffee from the bar in the hotel which was helpful. Our room had a mini-kitchen but only with instant coffee which we do not drink and there is a small supermarket within walking distance. I would recommend Hotel Palazzo Violetta as a place to stay when in Malta.

Great location, nice staff, quiet, unique setting, great breakfast.

Boutique hotel right in the middle of Valletta. The location is perfect for exploring the city and is only one street away from Merchants St. The staff are excellent, especially those on breakfast duty. The rooms are clean and the bed comfortable. The shower in the bathroom was really good. Rooms also had both UK and EU sockets. Rooms had A/C, a safe and a smsll fridge. Note most rooms face into a central 'atrium' so there is very little natural light. A couple of things to make it even better would be more drawer space in the rooms and perhaps someone to man the bar in the evenings to enjoy a late drink or coffee. I didn't see anywhere else i would have preferred to stay, so i can thoroughly recommend this hotel.
