Cathy was just excellent. Property is very beautiful. Excellent location. In particular, Cathy was most helpful in organizing day trips to the beach and advising us on tours. Would highly recommend a stay here.

A unique Limestone property with just 4 rooms in the pretty town of St Julian’s. In about 5 mins walk you are on the harbour front full of restaurants and easy bus links (including tour buses) for anywhere. The owner Cathy was very friendly and full of advice. Breakfast was a buffet type served from Cathy’s kitchen. Highly recommended, we would be very happy to return.

Cathy is the best host we have ever encountered. Very friendly, helpful and gave us many tips on what to do. The location is quite useful as well, with a bus stop a minute or so walk down some stairs down the road. We were initially worried about the location as we heard that St Julian’s is a party town with plenty of clubs and bars but that seemed to be a bit further north (I think the next bus stop) so Stonehouse was situated in a very peaceful place. Overall, loved the place, grateful Cathy was our host and available for a couple of chats and would love to return here again one day.

Great hotel and location
Hotel is well located to explore the sights of Malta. The rooms are perfect and the host Cathy is very helpful and had many good suggestions for making the most of our stay in Malta.

Beautiful house in authentic Maltese style
Beautifully restored house, kept entirely in the traditional Maltese style. The rooms are very spacious, and the house is in a very quiet area, even though it's only a few hundred meters away from all the restaurants etc. The owners are a lovely and very welcoming couple, who work hard to meet everyone's individual needs.

Stonehouse
Fantastic guest house and lovely hostess. The owner is very passionate about Malta so she gave us a good deal of useful information about what to do and see in Malta. The room itself was stunning. Good quality of sleep and also very good breakfast with a variety of choices. The local area is rather busy with a few bars and restaurants.

Short stay
We really enjoyed st Julian and Valletta. The area around st Julian is very built up with modern type building apartments which is a shame as it make the area like all other coastal towns. Valletta and Silema was very nice and made for a good walk to the harbour and a ferry trip to Valletta and the harbour tours. Didn't like St. Paul's at all bit like a seaside town in England.

Claire Thank you very much for your review! I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. It is a shame indeed about all the developing going on in these areas but I can assure you that The Stonehouse will remain! Hope to see you back one day again

We loved staying here. A short walk to to vibrant sea front and restaurants, great pool, awesome shower and comfy rooms with balcony. Cathy was the perfect host and shared her wealth of knowledge of the area to make your stay in Malta seamless. Nothing was a bother - very very helpful. Highly recommended.

Perfect!
Wonderful, welcoming, comfortable. Cathy is the gem in the Stone House, with personalized service for everyone. There is nothing she cannot do for her guests. All her suggestions and recommendations were perfect. Truly a home away from home, with wonderful conversations with both Cathy and Mauricio. A truly pleasurable stay. A definite return for me.

These folks made my trip!
Normally when I travel for work I stay in large, international hotel chains. For my holiday experience in Malta, I wanted something completely different -- and WOW did I get it! There are only two quaint, guest rooms in The Stone House and Cathy and Maurizio live upstairs. They are two of the nicest people you will ever meet. Cathy goes out of her way to make sure the guests are well looked after. When I was leaving, there was a couple coming in who, she had heard, were celebrating an anniversary. So of course, she had to go out and get a special bouquet of flowers for their room. I think that pretty much says it all.

Wonderful welcome and great location
We stayed at the Stone House in St Julians in November 2016. The Stone House is in a great location for exploring Malta, and Cathy could not have been more welcoming. She made sure that we were well equipped with maps and information to explore the island. The breakfasts were lovely, full of choice and well-presented, and timing each morning was flexible, depending on our plans for that day. Nothing was too much to ask, Cathy was a great host and made sure that our trip was fuss-free and laid back. The B&B is finished to a very high standard and the room was large, clean and comfortable, with free WiFi throughout the property. Cathy also very kindly returned some earrings by post that I left during my stay - a wonderful place to stay and would fully recommend to other visitors.

階段2階の部屋に荷物を運ばない。 テレビはない。通常テレビを見るような音量で音楽を聴いていたところ(テレビがないため)、うるさいと言われ、翌日ちょうしょくまえに20分の説教。 ついているはずのウォーターボトルはなし。 ベッドに砂、タオル交換なしに至っては嫌がらせレベル。 トイレットペーパーの補充がないため補充する様にいったら、補充をしたと言い張り、なぜ使い切ったか?と聞かれる。部屋にティッシュがないからだ。言い方が気に入らないといちいちつっかかってくる。 日本人は礼儀正しく、お土産を持ってきてくれると言われ、お土産をみせられる。滞在先のオーナーに土産を要求されてのは初めての経験でびっくりとと同時に図々しさに呆れる。 本当に図々しい感じの悪いオーナーでマルタそのものが嫌いになった。

Very convenient place(the centre of St Julians), a large clean room, and a friendly owner! There're a lot of famous restaurants near the hotel. It's quite easy to access a bus stop (we can visit Valetta, Gozo island and Comino island directly to use the bus stop). And the most impressive issue was a friendly owner! She let me know famous restaurants( I went to some recommended restaurants during the vacation), how to go to sightseeing spots, and a lot of Malta TIPS!! I was really satisfied with the services! :)

歴史的な建物で居心地の良いB&B
マルタの歴史的な建造物を改築した、とても素敵な石づくりのB&Bです。 小さなカトラリーから部屋のインテリア、エクステリア、建物の隅々に至るまで、オーナーのセンスとこだわりが行き届いた、それでいて無駄な物のない空間。そんな部屋の快適さもさることながら、特にプールのある中庭はとても居心地が良く、いつまでも過ごしたくなってしまいます。 オーナーのCathyさんもとても親切で気遣いに優れた女性で、日本びいきだったこともあり、楽しく安心して過ごせました。 また、バス停や繁華街まで歩いてすぐという立地の良さも良かった点です。 再びマルタに行くことになると思いますが、またここにお世話になりたいと思います。
