Find the Best St Julian＇s Hotels

You may need a map to find the hotel in the narrow streets of St Julians. It is close to the airport bus stop from Luqa and very frequent buses to places around the island stop nearby. The hotel is in a quiet street and well located being close to St Georges beach, the Paceville nightlife and shopping centre or a short stroll to St Julians Bay. Plenty of options from fast food to high quality restaurants were all within walking distance. The hotel was a new build giving good sized rooms with balconies, spotlessly clean. All the staff, from reception, breakfast and cleaning were friendly, very good at making you feel special. Breakfast was good with fresh eggs cooked to order. Good value.

Spent 10 days here in Spetember. Location is not good for couples, more suited to 18-22 year olds that want to party. The food is unbearable, the pool food and dinner in the restaurant are both awful. The breakfast is truly inedible, I couldn't even drink the coffee. Apart from the 1 or 2 staff members that were very nice to us, the majority of the staff are very rude, you ask the bar staff at the pool to make 1 drink and they roll their eyes. That is, of course, if there is actually a staff member at the pool bar. The amount of times we tried to order a drink there only to see that there were no staff at the bar, they would usually return every 30 mins... and then leave 30 minutes later again. On 3 separate occasions, we ordered some food, only to find out after 45 minutes that the staff member never put the order through. The pool is one nice point, although the staff treated the pool with 2 bags of salt one of the days and the salt sat in a mound in the water for 2 days. I'm not an expert in how to maintain a pool but I'm pretty sure that adding 5kg of salt is useless. Rooms are a little worn down, marks on the walls, beds/bedsheets seem old and cheap, some of the lights didn't work. I asked about some excursions we wanted to go on, the manager looked at me like I had 3 heads. He recommended a company to use and couldn't tell me where they were even located. It was as if it was his first time looking at the brochures he was giving me. The restaurant options are not great around the hotel either, all cheap tourist trap style restaurants around the area. Malta is a lovely country but if you want to visit, I would stay away from this hotel.

We arrived around 23:00 hrs. (due to flight delays otherwise planned 20:00 hrs.). On arrival there was a receptionist called ”Vladimir” who checked us in & provided the room. When we went up to the room A/C did not work more than a few seconds, no telephone in the room to inform, so my husband went down (a long way) & informed him. He came to the room & tried & put it on & it worked again for few mts. while he was there, so he said it is working & left the room. But, it stopped again just after he left! My husband went down again & told him....what he has told my husband was he cant help & we have to sleep without A/C until next day until he find a technician during the day time!!! My husband told him it is very warm for us (coming from Denmark) we can’t sleep without A/C, that is why we paid for a A/C room! He said he called his boss & he told the same!!!! We were very shocked to hear, both the Receptionist & his boss have the same mentality when serving guests! Then my husband had told him we will bring our baggage down, stay at the Reception & call Police! Then he said, he found a room in another block, so he given direction to go to an entire different building.....we now walked to that place with our baggage alone much after midnight without any help from the Reception! There was a man sitting at the reception in that building, but he was mostly like a watchman! When we went there found that room A/C was dead, then found out remote control has not even have batteries, so we complained to that watchman! Then he came & check, he called Vladimir & informed A/C is dead, even no batteries in the Remote! Watchman was asked to come & get some batteries, when watchman went there no new batteries at the Reception, but he got some old batteries! Somehow A/C worked a bit, then stopped again after a few seconds….We informed Watchman again….this is around now 02:00 am, we haven’t had even our dinner! We told him you fix A/C issue & we have to go out & grab something to eat (luckily in that area there were lots of small take away/snacks places were available until late, so we grabbed Pizzas. When we returned, Watchman said the cables in the A/C were disconnected but now they were fixed! So, it worked finally but with lots of noises which we realized we had to live with them!!!! Then while we were sleeping we noticed so much of noise (talking, screaming, running up & down, music, doors opening & closing, etc.) on all the corridors throughout night, and then continued whole time until morning & beyond….then we found out the block where we were transferred was purely reserved for some 200+ teenagers looks like a high school group from Italy/Spain who behaved nothing uncontrollable children – Sadly, unprofessional reception couldn’t think the difference between 200+ teenagers & a descent couple who want to have a relaxed holiday…how on the earth he put us in the middle of 200+ teenagers!!!! In 1 room there were around 4-5 beds/students which we see when thei

The location is far from what I expected. The hotel it’s self is in the middle of a shopping mall, with amenities such as the pool and restaurant the other side of the mall. The area is bang in the middle of the night club strip, full of party goers and cheap bars and clubs. The area stinks too! But if you’re visiting for a week of drinking, I guess it’s the place to be?! However, being a small island, using bolt taxis, we managed to avoid the area completely and get to nicer areas with ease. The hotel it’s self is clean, modern and spacious. We went in September, off season, so we never had trouble getting a sun bed at the pool, but it is small and I can imagine in peak holiday period it would be a night mare! Charts music playing at the roof top pool, so it’s not the relaxing type, more for young people and day time drinks. Indoor pool basic. No jacuzzi or steam room/sauna ect which I would expect. But quiet and more relaxing vibes. The staff were pleasant and cleaning staff were attentive. Breakfast was the same every day, basic but enjoyable. With pastries, fruit and full english. I can’t really fault the hotel it’s self, other than it being based across two wings. Just the area in which it’s located let’s it down really. It’s for young party goers really. That modern, urban type of hotel. Karen, the trip representative at the hotel was awful. She seems polite and helpful ect, but didn’t care about the guests. She sold us a compete lie. Recommend the Fernandez boat trip and I won’t get into it but it was nothing like she described and was terrible. She tried to push the hop on, hop off bus on us. And was rather rude when we decided not to take it. We asked for recommendations for what to do instead and she said if we don’t go on the bus we may as well do nothing but stay in the area, what a load of rubbish!! Hope this review is helpful. From a 23&25 year old couple, wanting a holiday where we could explore Malta but relax within the hotel.

My Mum and I had a weeks stay here. We had a great time and found the staff very helpful. We would like to say a special thank you to Fernando and Tej as they went above and beyond to help us which made our stay even better. We would highly recommend this hotel as it has a great roof top pool with plenty of space to sunbathe. We enjoyed the breakfast which had a great selection of foods. Our bedroom was cleaned daily and the towels were also changed each day. The hotel is in a great location as it is in walking distance to a bus stop which takes you to many places including Valletta. It is also a short walk from many restaurants and bars. Thank you hotel Argento.

The hotel is amazing. From the moment I stepped into the hotel till I checked out, the service was impeccable. Mara, the customer executive at the reception, was extremely friendly and helpful. She pointed out important tourist information on a map for us (restaurants, bus stops etc.). In fact, she recommended places to visit, time of the day to visit etc. as well. It was indeed very helpful. The location of the hotel is extremely convenient. Bus stops nearby, Paceville is walking, Sliema is walking, Valletta 30 mins door to door by bus, grocery shops a stone's throw away, host of restaurants nearby. Our room was huge, with a nice balcony and a decent view from the 8th floor. The room was cleaned daily by the room services folks. Impeccable job. The room had a smart TV (if you want to watch Netflix/ YouTube etc) The ground floor had a snack dispenser and a sitting area where you can sit and eat probably, if you order in. Overall, amazing experience, value for money, highly recommended.
