    I was on vacation for 3 nights at The Stonehouse together with a friend. I can say with my hand on my heart that everything was superlative, from the host who welcomed us from the beginning of the stay, Mrs. Cathy, an extraordinary woman with a vast culture and super involved in everything that is a customer, she treats you like her family, you feel like you are at home, right down to the room and its facilities (I stayed in the Jade room which was super spacious) The hotel looks like an oasis of peace where you have absolutely everything you need. I can say that the breakfast was very varied and everything was fresh. You have coffee, water and tea machines + cakes on absolutely all floors of the hotel, even quality ones. Ms. Cathy personally takes care of boat trips around almost the entire island, or if you don't want that, she can design a whole plan for you with what to do during your stay. On departure, the check-out was at 11:00 a.m. but the plane was at 8:45 p.m. and we were able to leave all our luggage safely at the hotel until we left for the airport, and we were even able to stay for a cigarette or a coffee. I very rarely give a 10 to an accommodation, but here it didn't feel like accommodation, but simply "Home". Thank you for the experience and I will definitely come back as soon as possible!

    Totul a fost pe gustul si asteptarile mele.

    Well, what can I say. Our 5 night stay in June at The Stonehouse met all of our expectations, and more. In a world of high rise hotels with their sleek lines of concrete and glass, this place offered something more in keeping with the tradition of Malta. With its stone walls and steps, along with Maltese tiles and furniture, all located a 1 minute walk from the harbour of Spinola Bay. We were greeted with a text on our way from the airport confirming we were in the penthouse which was great as this was an upgrade. Two flights of stairs and then a spiral staircase was a little daunting, but not an issue when you see the room. I'd advise anyone to go on the owners website for better pictures of the rooms, as Booking.com doesn't have the penthouse listed, and descriptions of all the other rooms are better. Cathy, the owner couldn't of been more helpful with her guide of things to do and places to avoid. If you're looking for something on a more personal level in an ideal location to explore the island, you'd struggle to beat The Stonehouse. But do plan ahead as availability could be you're main problem. If we were to visit Malta again, this would be the first place I would look to stay.

    Absolutely nothing.

    The location of the property is perfect if you want to explore St Julians area. The house itself is authentic and gives that vibe. It has everything you need for a short stay and the hostess was helpful.

    Bed wasn’t comfortable for our liking, it wasn’t the worst, but better bed would have been a big plus. I didn’t like that there is a extra charge for late check in which did not make any sense to me as it is self check in anyway. We made it on time, but really I could not make sense of why that charge would be applied if we arrived any time later.

    A fantastic place, we really enjoyed our stay and would book again. Would normally try other places if we were looking to come back to an area, but I doubt we could find anything close to this. Just wish we could have stayed longer.

    Fabulous location to everything, super clean, very comfortable stay and breakfast was great with lots of choices. Warren was a delight and his instructions for a day out were spot on. Didn’t get a chance to have a swim in the pool but it looked very inviting. Tania also was very accommodating

    The Stonehouse was absolutely beautiful. Everything about the rooms and bathrooms was perfect, and having a little private balcony was lovely.

    The stay here was rather expensive for someone traveling alone, however as a couple it would've been more reasonable. There are also very steep hills around the house which would be uncomfortable for people with limited mobility.

    Stunning property, really authentic, beautifully furnished, if it's a real taste of Malta you are looking for you can't beat this property. Cathy is really helpful and knowledgeable and very professional and really helps you to make the most of your stay. All the little touches are delightful, from drinks available on each floor, including biscuits. Location is wonderful and very accessible but as set a little bit back from Spinola Bay you don't get any of the noise.

    Property itself is Superb. It’s a large house renovated to high standards yet keeping the feel and authenticity of an old rustic home. Our room was spacious and beautiful. Cathy runs this place and is uber informative about everything Malta. If you need advice or guidance, you couldn’t come to a better place.

    No TV but that’s also a positive!!!!

    Simbob, Thank you very much for your lovely review! sorry about no TV but at the time of creating this B&B I thought it would be a positive note to be slightly different from the rest.. Cathy

    Was super clean and looked amazing. Breakfast consisted of a variety of fruits pastries and cereals that were perfect to fuel the start of your day. The location was perfect as really good bars and restaurants were only a 5 minute walk away. The owner was super friendly and easy to chat too and gave great advice so we would have the best holiday. I would highly recommend this property to everyone
