"La Falconeria is sitiauted in an exellent position to be quiet but within an easy walkable distance to central Valletta. The hotel was spotlessly clean and all the staff were very polite and friendly. Special thanks to Patricia for quickly sorting out an issue when we first arrived. Breakfast was all delicious with plenty of options and the restaurant was run with great efficiency"
"This hotel was exceptional! The service was impeccable and the location 10/10! The staff was amazing as well! Kudos to Yuliia!!! She was so knowledgeable and helpful for everything we needed! When I go back to Malta I will definitely stay at this hotel again and will recommend to family and friends!! "

"Simply put, its one of the classic elegant properties in the heart of the old city, but peace and quite once you get into the hotel. Frequently the sounds of cannons maybe heard but added character. Rooms where lovely and we had a super view. Best food at Beef Bar as well ! Great bars and lovely pool ! "

From the moment we booked, the hotel was in touch, making sure they had everything they needed for our stay. Check-in was smooth and quick, and the staff were welcoming from the first hello.
I had asked for a birthday surprise for my niece, and they made it happen perfectly — even tailoring it to meet our halal requirements. It’s those little touches that really make a difference.
The staff here are brilliant — friendly, helpful, and genuinely happy to help. I’d definitely recommend using the hotel’s taxi service instead of Bolt or Uber. The cars are clean, spacious, and really comfortable. Our airport pickup driver, Omar, was polite and professional, making our arrival stress-free.
There was a small hiccup with our return transfer booking (caused by the hotel, not the taxi company), but Lucienne from the hotel sorted everything out. She suggested a better pick-up time, which meant I got an extra hour of sleep, and she got us to the airport in great time. She honestly saved the day.
The location is spot-on — walking distance to shops, restaurants, and the waterfront, with easy access to explore more of Malta. Our room was modern, big, and spotless, with everything we needed to be comfortable.
We felt looked after from start to finish, and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again next time I’m in Malta.

"The only thing I would say in terms of improvements is perhaps to better train the staff at breakfast. The supervisor was good but no one proactively came and asked for coffee/tea orders. The staff were nice, no question, I just think they could be better trained to be more attentive to the visitors. It felt like they had been trained to be attentive to the table cleanliness only (which is obviously a good thing!)
My other observation is that in the evenings the restaurant receives visitors who want to Instagram photos of the beautiful view but the people doing it don’t really consider their impact to the people trying to have a quiet meal right next to their photo taking. It would be good if staff could move the Instagrammers on to a quieter area to allow diners to enjoy their meals and the view in peace.
Food was really good tho!! "
