Wonderful property for our short break
Unique property with amazing character. Our room was very spacious with both a sitting area and mezzanine bedroom. The covered balcony was a great place to sit and enjoy the sights and atmosphere below. The owners were very friendly and helpful and the buffet breakfast very tasty. The property was ideally situated in the middle of Valletta and handy for bars and restaurants. It provided easy access to Valletta for exploring the wonderful city. We'd highly recommend this if you are visiting Valletta.

We had an amazing stay at Valletta Lucente. We stayed in the Lucia room and it was very well designed and thought out. The area is very busy but we enjoyed that we could walk right out the door to many cafes and restaurants. The owners were also amazing. Our airline had lost our luggage and when it finally arrived and was going to be delivered, the courier needed to meet me with the bags since the hotel isn’t on a drivable street. Unfortunately we had an excursion scheduled at the only time they could drop them off that day. So instead of us missing our excursion or being without our bags for another day the owner said he would get the bags for us and he did and left them in our room. You couldn’t ask for better customer service with owners who go out of the way for their guests. My wife and I really appreciated it. We will definitely stay here again

Beautifully maintained old palazzo in a good location. Friendly staff. Good breakfast. Valletta is quite small and thus incredibly walkable. Nothing is more than a few minutes away. Would stay again. If accessibility is a concern, the Layla penthouse may not be the best choice as there are a few stairs particularly between the two terraces and down to the bathroom (which does not have a door so that may not suit everyone). It does face the street where there are bars/restaurants that stay open late with music playing etc so if you are a light sleeper, this may also not be the best room for you.

Valetta Lucente is in a prime location in downtown Valetta although on a pedestrian only street which makes it a bit difficult when using Uber. However the hotel more than makes up for it. Interior quirky but really works. We arrived at 3:00 AM but staff were there to assist us. Didn't meet Charles till the second last day of our visit but previous reviews on both him and his wife and staff lived up to their reviews. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone planning a visit to Malta. I mentioned about quiet. When we arrived at 3:00 AM the street was very quiet but when we got up and went outside the hustle and bustle and noise was a shock! However the construction of the hotel (solid) meant that no sound penetrated to our room, believe me a huge bonus! Congrats Charles, we will be back! Frank D Ottawa October 15th 2023

The owners made us feel welcome and the property is a awesome unique boutique hotel. Full of unique pieces the owners have collected. One thing to note this property does not have.a 24/7 reception even though Expedia gave us the information it did. We did not arrive until midnight due to delayed flights. We had provided our flight number so the owners were tracking our flight and waited for us to arrive.as we couldn’t be contacted. If I got the correct information I would have reached out to the hotel to arrange after hours check I as with a few of the other places on this trip. The owners were very gracious in waiting’ for us to arrive.highly recommend great location and beautiful hotel

It was busy and noisy outside but family operated hotel was charming enough to please us. Each room is decorated differently. Our room was spacious with separate living room and bathroom. Breakfast was fresh and tasty homemade. It will be perfect for young adults to stay here. There are many bars and restaurants outside.
