Massive Crane overhead. Bags of rubbish dumped in the doorway of the derelict building next door .Outside of hotel area very unappealing. Music from carmens club on next street was unbelievable. It was so noisy until at least 2am or maybe later , then when the music stops got to listen to the revellers for a further hour.

Underwhelming breakfast options (probably because this is a small hotel). Very noisy from adjacent streets until early hours of the morning due to the number of bars playing very loud music.

The hotel is comfortable, the staff is very professional and friendly. The only cons I have to mention is the sounds from the bars🎵 at night, it can be loud! But, the hotel will provide ear plugs😁. We had breakfast 🍳included with was great. The owner Mark is very knowledgeable about places and how to get there, definitely if you need help ask him. ##### Claudia Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tracey 3 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Mark and his team went above and beyond to ensure our stay was all we wanted it to be. Mark is very knowledgeable about Malta and helped us with deciding on days out. We booked room 42 with its own terrace and hot tub, which insured we had fantastic views for the NYE fireworks. Complimentary bubbly in the fridge on arrival along with snacks and soft drinks. I dont think we would change a thing. Don't be put off by the location, although very close to some noisy bars, the rooms are very sound proof and they supply earplugs as a back up, although we didn't need them. The bed was so comfortable obe of the best ive slept on and im fussy. They really think of everything you might have forgotten..Complimentary top class toiletries, shaving kit, dental kit, sewing kit, nail file, cotton buds the works. Thank you for such a magnificent stay we will be back 10/10 ##### Tracey Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Risto 26 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The Barrister is an average townhouse conversion hotel, with all the attendant benefits and drawbacks. Some of the rooms are big, other tiny. Soundproofing works in parts of the building, in others it doesn't. Everything in central Valletta is within a few minute's walk, but it's also in close proximity of bars playing loud music late into the night. However, these are things you expect and accept - still, breakfast was done on the cheap, no questions about that. ##### Risto Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James 28 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very nice hotel, would stay here again.

All of the staff were fantastic and made our stay feel as though we were staying with good friends. The owner has a wealth of knowledge about Malta and the best attractions to see as well as suggestions of the best restaurants at reasonable prices. The hotel is also perfectly situated for exploring Valletta on foot. The owner and all of the staff worked hard to ensure that our stay was a memorable experience and we were made to feel valued and special. ![Welcoming facade of the hotel in the evening](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8ffc6e71-2e62-4b1c-83ff-f90b748fb2a6-1748877490151.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Andrew Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Gary 1 Jun 2025 Property in good location and good breakfast.

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. ##### Julia Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terence 4 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities A bit noisy late in the evening from neighbouring bars but did not detract from the overall excellent experience. Would certainly recommend. ##### Terence Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lorelle M 29 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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! ##### Lorelle M Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Preluna Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sliema-Hotels-The-Preluna-Hotel.h558176.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Excelsior](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Floriana-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Excelsior.h1685894.Hotel-Information) > > [The Phoenicia Malta - The Leading Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Floriana-Hotels-The-Phoenicia-Malta.h518882.Hotel-Information) > > [Verdi St Georges Bay Marina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Julians-Hotels-Verdi-St-Georges-Bay-Marina.h1124418.Hotel-Information) > > [Alavits Hotel by ST Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gzira-Hotels-Alavits-Hotel-By-ST-Hotels.h89705272.Hotel-Information) > > [AX The Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sliema-Hotels-AX-The-Palace.h1699393.Hotel-Information) > > [1926 Le Soleil Hotel & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sliema-Hotels-1926-Hotel-SPA.h21308320.Hotel-Information) > > [Azur Hotel by ST Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gzira-Hotels-Azur-Hotel-By-ST-Hotels.h30653151.Hotel-Information) > > [Verdi Gzira Promenade](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gzira-Hotels-Hotel-Verdi.h83975871.Hotel-Information) > > [Fort St Angelo Mansions, Harbour Views Apartment](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birgu-Hotels-Fort-St-Angelo-Mansions.h45283330.Hotel-Information) > > [Corinthia Palace Malta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Attard-Hotels-Corinthia-Palace-Malta.h17487.Hotel-Information) > > [Solana Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mellieha-Hotels-Solana-Hotel-Spa.h1384076.Hotel-Information) > > [Xemxija Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Pauls-Bay-Hotels-Porto-Azzurro-Aparthotel.h1717690.Hotel-Information) > > [Cugo Gran Macina Malta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Senglea-Hotels-Cugo-Gran-Macina-Grand-Harbour.h19771346.Hotel-Information) > > [Ramla Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mellieha-Hotels-Ramla-Bay-Resort.h897060.Hotel-Information) > > [Land's End Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sliema-Hotels-Lands-End-Boutique-Hotel.h72574820.Hotel-Information) > > [Palazzo Castagna](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ghaxaq-Hotels-Palazzo-Castagna.h91725194.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Spa Resort – Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mellieha-Hotels-LABRANDA-Riviera-Hotel-Spa.h986091.Hotel-Information) > > [Talbot and Bons Boutique Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gudja-Hotels-Talbot-And-Bons-Boutique-Bed-Breakfast.h24429586.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Gozo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ghajnsielem-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Gozo.h1350444.Hotel-Information) > > [AX The Victoria Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sliema-Hotels-AX-The-Victoria-Hotel.h788902.Hotel-Information) > > [Plaza Regency Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sliema-Hotels-Plaza-Regency-Hotels.h2925839.Hotel-Information) > > [Maritim Antonine Hotel & Spa Malta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mellieha-Hotels-Maritim-Antonine-Hotel-Spa-Malta.h919288.Hotel-Information) > > [Diplomat Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sliema-Hotels-Diplomat-Hotel.h109428.Hotel-Information) > > [Corinthia St George's Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Julians-Hotels-Corinthia-St-Georges-Bay.h9122.Hotel-Information) > > [Cerviola Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marsaskala-Hotels-Cerviola-Hotel.h8256075.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Resort, Malta St. Julian's](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Julians-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Resort.h63558.Hotel-Information) > > [Gillieru Harbour Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Pauls-Bay-Hotels-Gillieru-Harbour-Hotel.h2205941.Hotel-Information) > > [Waterfront](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sliema-Hotels-Waterfront.h2835070.Hotel-Information) > > [115 The Strand Hotel by NEU Collective](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gzira-Hotels-115-The-Strand-Hotel-By-NEU-Collective.h1641882.Hotel-Information)
