The best hotels St Julian’s

This imposing 8-storey building is located on the street facing the casino, in the centre of the city's nightlife. Its 256 rooms have air conditioning, satellite TV, minibar, PC connection and room service until midnight. Two swimming pools, one of which is indoor and the other on the roof, a fitness room with Turkish bath and sauna. Pay parking.

This establishment is housed in a beautiful high-rise house nestled at the bottom of Spinola Bay in front of the waterfront road. Here, you are very far from the luxurious and impersonal complexes. This recently renovated hotel offers 65 rooms and suites (all large and comfortable with a view of the Bay), with a more personalized service. The rooms with balcony and sea view are obviously the most interesting (and most expensive). The others offer uninteresting views but are nevertheless very bright, thanks to picture windows. The terrace with a swimming pool on the roof allows you to swim or sunbathe while contemplating the bay and the neighbourhood. Note the recent Gym room. So here is a good address, well placed and which, not to spoil anything, has an excellent restaurant: Le Zest.

The little brother of Corinthia St George's Bay, you'll have all the amenities of a 4-star resort, plus access to the entire complex: private lido, five outdoor pools, a children's pool, a PADI diving school and a water sports center. Treat yourself to a relaxing treatment at the Corinthia Beach Resort's Apollo Day Spa, or recharge your batteries in the heated indoor pool or fitness center with all the latest equipment. Located just a few meters from St Julian's beach, you'll enjoy the peace and quiet of the bay, yet be close to the party zone. Certainly one of the best 4-star hotels on the island.

Overlooking the seafront, Corinthia Hotel St George's Bay offers 249 comfortable, tastefully decorated rooms and suites with state-of-the-art amenities. You will enjoy the balconies and terraces in particular, which you can admire from the whole bay. There are several restaurants, 4 bars, a grill, etc. Sportsmen will also find many activities: water skiing, jet skiing, swimming (swimming pool), sauna, gymnastics (fitness room) and diving courses with a world champion. Proposed daily free activity. Francophone home. Quiet, you are a little away from the hustle and bustle, but a free shuttle bus allows you to rally Sliema or Castille Square in La Valette. If you want a view of the sea, choose the reception rooms.

This small, colorful hostel with a relaxed, international atmosphere offers 4 dormitories with 6 beds each (some are mixed), and a double room with bathroom (must be booked in advance). A large garden with climbing ivy and hammocks invites you to relax and chat. The communal kitchen is popular, as are the regular barbecues organized by the hotel in the garden. A good plan for backpackers on a budget and students on an English course who are staying on the island and are looking for a certain conviviality.

A hotel in the heart of the Commercial shopping Complex. It offers 101 air-conditioned rooms, equipped with cable TV, hair dryer and a safe. Also, 24 furnished apartments with kitchenette. The modern decor of this comfortable hotel has absolutely nothing Maltese, but its central position is interesting. His big asset: a rooftop swimming pool with a bar to admire sunsets at the time of the aperitif. Good value for money. Hotel closed for work until March 2015.

In the heart of Paceville, this brand new design hotel opened in June 2010. The rooms have all the modern comforts and have nothing to envy for superior facilities. Everything is done to close the client: Two swimming pools (one on the terrace where the view is panoramic and another heated one which instead serves the winter), a sauna, a hammam, a Jacuzzi, a bar, a restaurant… Book in advance for a room in summer.

The Radisson offers 252 luxury rooms with a host of facilities, 2 bars and several restaurants, including the renowned Kon Tiki and Le Bistrot. There are also several swimming pools, including an outdoor one, a sauna, a whirlpool, a gym and diving courses. The hotel is eco-friendly: it has its own desalination plant for its water supply, treats some of its own wastewater, and generates 40% of its electricity using a solar system. Added to all this is the quality of the friendly, highly professional service.

Located in the heart of St Julian's, in the Paceville district, this 6-storey hotel offers a good quality of comfort and services, starting with its 145 rooms, very well equipped (TV, balcony, safe, air conditioning, etc.). It has a restaurant, a bar and two swimming pools, one of which is ideally located on the roof of the hotel, sheltered from sight. Furthermore, it is heated and covered during the winter. Music and animation are occasional. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

It's hard not to notice this impressive 8 story black building when you go to Paceville. Opened in 2016, this luxury boutique hotel is at the forefront of technology. This is how, with a tablet, you can control everything in your room: The room was very clean and the staff were very helpful. And the rest of the equipment will be the same level: High performance wifi, minibar, satellite TV, full coffee service and even top comfort bed, especially when you are active in massaging. Some of the suites, superior "foaming bath", allow you to slip into a bubbling bath while enjoying a wonderful view of St George's Bay. But privacy is perfectly guaranteed since you can admire everything without being seen, thanks to a special treatment of glass. Modern decoration for all 40 rooms. And in the surroundings, bars in the same group as Hugo's Pub, Hugo's Passion….

The Alfonso is a small, vieillot family hotel, just steps away from the Spinola Bay and the discos of Paceville.

The rooms offer basic comfort and some are air conditioned.

It is regrettable that this establishment so well kept winter is much less the summer! The cleaning is not done every day in the rooms, the fans do not work (almost unbearable with high heat) and the reception is really unpleasant. Conclusion: go to this institution in the winter, but avoid the summer where prices are, in an exaggerated way. It is a pity that the lure of gain pushes some hotels in Paceville to not be in the little care with tourists during the high season…
