Location was good Rooms very clean Breakfast was buffet and good quality, I care about proteins and here I could get eggs, turkey in slices, yogurt, and in general there are options for salty or sweet breakfast. Plus, I had breakfast sitting on the tables outside of the hostels, right in front of the sea while taking the sun :) There is a swimming pool, garden with Hammocks to chill and read a book under some trees. There is a kitchen and a living room and the overall look clean. Stuff is so kind and there was a genre good vibe in the hostel, approved!

Absolutely recommend Bookarest Hostel! I initially planned to stay for just one week, but I ended up staying a whole month, that says it all! The facilities are super comfortable and always clean, with great lighting throughout. There's a cozy common area where you can watch movies and connect with other travelers, plus several fridges and hot showers available at all times. But what truly makes the difference is the staff. A huge thank you to Carlos, Felipe, and Rachel for their amazing support and good vibes. I genuinely recommend this place to anyone visiting. You’re going to love it!

Literally everything. If I could, I would rate this stay a 100 / 10 - seriously though, the staff was like none other. So sweet and friendly, hanging out with everyone in the hostel and making it truly feel like a home. Everyday a (lovely) cleaner came through the space, asking how we were and keeping everything so clean. Cute outdoor space just off the kitchen which makes for an awesome breakfast spot plus an incredible roof top for chilling and hanging out!! Location is perfect if you’d like to be central in a lively but not obnoxious city - it’s got great access to transit about 5 min walk that will take you literally anywhere you need/want to go! As a bonus, the people this hostel attracts says it all. I made some really great connections in this space and will always come back to Hostel On if I’m ever in Sliema again (fingers crossed that I will be!!) xox

Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    It‘s a very nice place to stay, the staff is very friendly and helpful. I got many great recommendations what to see in Malta as well, which was awesome :) The location in Sliema is great, a nice and safe area from where you can also reach all other enjoyable areas in Malta well. It‘s a very clean hostel. Also, I liked the pretty tiles on the floor in my room :)
