Excellent stay. We were two singles and were upgraded to a room that was more appropriate for us, which was a nice gesture. We used the pool every day, a real bonus after busy days/jetlag.

Great hotel in Sliema

We had a very nice stay at Palace Violetta. The hotel is on a quiet street set a few minutes walk from the potentially noisy harbour. Jurgen and his staff are all very helpful. We took advantage of the airport collection that was arranged by the hotel which was excellent. The buffet breakfast was good and there are tables outside by the pool. We stayed three days - but would have been happy to stay longer.

8/10 Very good

Nice old property with lovely staff. Very convenient for buses to Valletta and not too far from ferry to Valletta. Had good sized room at front with lovely sun terrace. At least one armchair in the room would have been nice. Shower was excellent as were tea making facilities. Convenient to have breakfast on premises. I would stay here again

10/10 Exceptional

Property is up a hill from Sliema front. We are used to hills but not the 34 degree (feels like 38 degree) heat. But if you don't want to walk there are plenty of taxis and public transport.
Nicholas, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely property and good location. Room very spacious and clean. Fast internet and super friendly staff. Only criticism was the noise, mainly from other guests. Unfortunately they let their children plan in the corridor, lots of screaming and laughter, at 11pm for quite some time and the staff didn’t seem to do anything. I waited for around 40 minutes and was about to get up to call reception and they went quiet thankfully. I thought the staff would have intervened by this point as you could hear it through every floor as the place has beautiful original flooring that let’s sound carry. Other than this slight issue, a wonderful stay. Many thanks
Mr Neal V, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Susan, 7-night trip

2/10 Poor

This is not a 4 stars hotel, but a small guesthouse. Room in smelly basement, noise between room, loud music until 23pm every night. Straff not serviceminded at all. Very dissapointed.
Anita, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Convenient for Valetta Ferry.

There was no complimentary water in room. This hotel has no welcoming ambience. It has an exterior that is pleasing but no warmth. Expensive for what it is. The area is very touristy, Branded shops M&S and Zara, very busy. Good spot for the Valetta ferry.

Great place to stay for visiting Malta

We had an amazing time in Sliema - easy connections to the rest of Malta. The staff were fantastic and super helpful. The room was clean, and comfortable, and the pool was very nice.

Las habitaciones muy limpias. El personal super amable,me encontré a dos latinos que hablaban español y me ayudaron mucho. A 15 minutos caminando hasta donde se toma el Ferry.

10/10 Exceptional

Ein schönes Hotel, in ruhiger Lage - keine Partygänger oder Trubel. Man lebt eher in einem Viertel mit den Anwohnern, sehr angenehm. Die Zimmer und die Flure sind sehr schön und erinnern ein wenig an ein wenig an eine Burg, positiv :-) Neben dem Mobiliar, was ind dunklen Farben gehalten ist, gibt es auf den Gängen schöne Gemälde, liebevolle Dekoration und individuelle Sitzgelegenheiten. Im ersten Stock ist auch ein Aufenthaltsraum mit einer kleinen Bibliothek - keine Angst, keine schwere Kost, Bücher aus dem Hier und Jetzt :-) Total nettes Personal, das da ist, aber sich nicht aufdrängt. Ich habe es 12 Tage dort genossen, in einem modernen und schickem Hotel. Es ist etwas höher gelegen zwischen St. Gilian und dem Hafen, es gibt kurze und steile Straßen oder längere und "sanfter". Ps. Von der St. Gilian-Seite gehts immer leichter, da dort die Bebauung am Ufer eh höher ist ;-) Also 100% empfehlenswert, Einkaufsgelegenheiten im nahen bis sehr nahen Umfeld, Restaurants entlang der Küste zur genüge.

Nice clean hotel located in a quiet residential area in a narrow street. Everything was good at the hotel didn't like the pool area. Very very small pool surrounded by a tall building and high wall that limits direct sunlight you are mostly in shaded area so can sun bath

Nice hotel about 10 minutes walk from centre. Can’t really comment too much as we were there less than 24 hours due to an early flight. We were given a bag with water and snacks as we would miss breakfast. Bed was comfortable and place was nice and clean. Thank you
Haley, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location in Sliema! The hotel is nestled between St. Julian’s Bay and Sliema seafronts. The hotel is located in a quiet, residential neighborhood, about 10-15 minute walk to either seafront location. There are small cafes, local bars, a pharmacy, and a mini market near the hotel. It was easy for excursion meet up points, the buses and to take the ferry. There are tons of restaurants, bars and cafes by the water along the Sliema seafront or St Julien’s Bay. It’s a beautiful, boutique hotel with a very accommodating & friendly staff. If you don’t mind a bit of walking, we would highly recommend it as a lovely & perfect place to stay. The hotel has a great pool, updated rooms, and great amenities…
