Just south of Sicily, Malta is a small archipelago of three islands but packs in prehistoric temples, a thriving capital and turquoise waters flowing onto white-sand beaches. Located on Malta Island, the ancient capital city of Valletta is described by UNESCO as ‘one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world’. Like a fine wine, the city has improved with age; its Roman Catholic cathedral flanked by an array of museums, shopping areas and 16th-century mansions converted into bars and restaurants. Other must-see attractions include the Hypogeum – a prehistoric burial site unearthed in 1902 – and the Megalithic temples which can be observed on both Malta and Gozo island. Malta’s rural beauty makes it perfect for all sorts of activities, such as hiking along the Gozo coast, sailing past secluded caves or diving amongst shipwrecks. If you’d rather ride a wave than dive below one, then numerous surfing spots are available, including Palm Beach, St. Thomas and Ghallis on the north shores of Malta. Comino is Malta’s smallest island but still worth a visit by any means. Its main draw is the Blue Lagoon – a huge pool of crystal-clear water on the uninhabited islet of Cominotto. A number of hotels, guests houses and apartments are available, with options provided on each of the three islands.

Clive and Liudmila are really on to something here. They have the hospitality X-factor where everything is just right! First time we are actually thinking about coming back to a place instead of discovering new places.

The hosts of this boutique hotel are very kind and attentive people. Warm welcome, advise you always can count on that. The rooms are designed with the good taste and you can even read some books about Malta, its history. Downstairs there is a very great patisserie with delicious food and pleasing prices.

The personnel were very polite and helpful. The hotel is in a perfect spot. The ferry to Valletta is less than 5 minutes away. The building is really old and historical , rooms are spacious with high ceilings and beds are huge and very comfortable. Breakfast is amazing and the rooftop pool has just stunning views.

Guest review
Belcony Hotel exceeded our expectations! The room was spacious, clean, and carefully tidied up every day, with a large bathroom, comfortable bed, full equipment (even separate washing and drying machine in each floor), kitchen and a lovely little balcony. The owner Luke is truly amazing – friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist. From the very first moment, we felt welcome and had no issues whatsoever. The hotel is in a perfect central location in St. Julian’s, right next to the 24/7 grocery store (Spar) with great prices, very convenient! Air conditioning in the room made our stay super comfortable during hot days.
Luke, especially thank you for giving us a late check-out, it made our last day and night flight home much much much easier and enjoyable.
Everything was simply excellent, and we wholeheartedly recommend Balcony Hotel to anyone looking for a 10/10 TOP stay in Malta. Without a doubt we’d choose this hotel again!
