Reviews of Mangion House

Great location friendly host

Salvu is a really friendly and geniuenly amazing Host. Speaks english and german really well. He makes really delicious breakfasts and has a good humour. :) He also knows a lot about Malta's history and tells really great stories. The house is really beautiful and clean. Our room was really comfortable. Salvu made sure we had everything for a great holiday. If we go back to Malta again, we will definitely stay at Mangion House. Thank you for everything!

Everything was great, no negatives. Best holiday we could have. Thank you Salvu! 🙂

Great location, Marsaxlokk is a calm, less frequented area. Salvu was a great host, adjusted our stay according to our needs. The apartment is clean and close to public transport.

Convenient location, homely atmosphere, kind and hospitable owner.

Salvu was probably the most attentive host we have ever encountered. A born story-teller and generous to a point. Each morning he would provide a hearty, filling breakfast with fresh bread, eggs, local cheese and assorted meats. Although small the room was comfortable and homely. The bed was fine. Two minute walk to the waterfront and bus connections.

We knew that the living room was a communal space but we weren't aware that so was the bathroom. This should be taken into account as five, including the host, can be awkward at times. Wifi could be a bit fugitive at times.

The host was very friendly and gave a lot of helpful travel tips. He speaks English and German fluently too. The breakfast was personalized and very delicious.

The shower curtains could be changed more often. There were also no toiletries provided.

The host was very kind , good breakfast and clear house.

Great personalized breakfast, cozy appartement, great view from balkony and terrace, multilingual host (german, italian, english)

delayed check-in

Host welcomed us even though we came few ours early and he was very nice. He also told us we can use everything from the fridge. Breakfast was good. AC was working well. Apartment is located very close to the sea. It has adapters for chargers.

It is a fishing village so everything smells like fish in the morning. There are no bigger stores nearby, only smaller and expensive ones.

The men who gave us our room was interrupting me and was very sexual and he might be my father at his age.. it gave me a very bad feeling and even fear.. I advise to all the girls who come to the Mangion house to not stay alone with the owner. Additionally and unfortunately the owner thought that it’s ok to touch my but with no permissions although he knew I’m with my boyfriend. I told him to stop but he kept doing it. No limits. Don’t come alone ladies.

Very good place to stay 😊 clean and comfortable rooms, wondwrfull breakfast!!! The host was very helpful, kind and funny. Thank you for amazing time,that we spent on Malta!

This was one of the best Guest houses we have ever used in al our travels. The owner goes out of his way to accommodate the guests working around their schedules. We were spoiled every day with a big breakfast and with his vast knowledge of Malta, he was able to give us historical information regarding the island and its tourist attractions. When he was able to, he took us to tourist attraction and introduced us to some of his fellow countryman. The Guesthouse itself was just a couple of steps away from the harbor with its picturesque view of colorful boats and restaurants with tables outside overlooking the bay and the big Sunday Market. With all this down the road the guesthouse still remains quiet and peaceful. The bus stop that is just around the corner also provide easy traveling to the other towns like Valletta, Rabat and Mdina. For the swimming enthusiast the beach is walking distance and you will easily find boats in the harbor to take you to St Paul's Pool. This really felt like home away from home.

TRIGGER WARNING: Sexual harassment During my stay at Mangion House another guest was sexually harassed by the owner. When the other guest told my friend and I what had happened, the story was undoubtedly true. On more than 1 occasion my friend and I witnessed the owner in his underwear, which made my friend and I very uncomfortable. Also, the owner made a few inappropriate comments regarding my appearance, which again made me uncomfortable. In the end, my friend and I left Mangion House and found accommodation elsewhere. Overall, our experience at Mangion House was poor and we will not be back.

I felt uncomfortable with the premises and the owner from the start & requested a refund, at least for 2 of the 3 nights I'd paid for but he wouldn't agree. The room I was given did not meet the description of the pictures or reviews. There was no balcony & no kettle in the room..There was also a very dirty old bathroom to share between 5 people. The shower curtain was stained brown & smelt really bad! but you are forced to use it because there's no door on the small cubicle, so the filthy curtain clings to your body while you shower! The room was cramped with over-sized furniture & had not been aired since the last guests. so it smelt really bad of sweat.

The cramped & smelly room. The bathroom with rancid foul-smelling shower curtain. The owner who pretends to be nice at first, but when you reject his unwanted advances he turns into a foul mouthed monster. The 4 steep flights of stairs, which are also not mentioned in the description. Not even allowed to use the kitchen to make a hot drink or snack because the owner is so possessive of everything.
