Fantastic small hotel
Fantastic small hotel, great location. Walkable to everything in Valletta. Staff is friendly & helpful. Mark, the owner is outgoing, enthusiastic about Malta & as helpful as he could be. His recommendation for a driver on Gozo was spot on. Martin picked us up at the ferry & drove us around Gozo for the day at a reasonable price. My only problem was noise Friday night from the bars nearby. But we were supplied ear plug, & with the window closed it wasn't really a problem. I would recommend the Barrister to anyone visiting Valletta!

100% would recommend and return!
Lovely stay - rooms at the front of the hotel can be quite noisy at night because of the bars but they do provide ear plugs. Breakfast is continental but sufficient. The manager is lovely and offers any advice or tips you might be looking for. Staff are all polite and pleasant. Building itself is very clean and well kept but the bathroom did sometimes have a sulphur smell. Could be more eco friendly with the toiletries but the water and free mini bar were a lovely touch!

Excellent property and staff could not be more delightful, friendly or helpful. Nothing is too much bother. Owner on site every day and mixes with guests and is always willing to improve your stay. The only minor issue is noise from surrounding cafes and bars which I found disturbing on a few nights, otherwise I doubt you could get a better place to enjoy Malta. Many suggestions of things to do and see, places to go were offered, including ferry and bus times, and my days were filled. Excellent service all round. Highly recommend.

Lovely little hotel situated in the centre of Valletta, so easy to get to all the site seeing places from it. The staff is what makes the hotel even better as they are so friendly and welcoming, as well as informative to help you plan what to visit. Was a bit noisy on the street on Saturday night, but not the other nights. Comfortable beds, clean room with everything need would definitely return.

This was a very friendly boutique hotel. Mark (the owner) and Emma (reception) gave us lots of information on what to see, and the best way to get there. The Barrister is very central, just off the Main Street. Everything in Valletta is walkable. We would definitely stay here again, so friendly The only down side was the lack of a proper shower, it was a low shower head over the bath.

Relaxing stay in a well located hotel
We had such a warm welcome to the hotel and staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. The room was beautiful and very comfortable. The hotel is off the main streets so nice and quiet at nighttime but only a very short walk to bars and restaurants.
