“Perfect location, kind and very responsive host, a cozy rental with lots of restaurants and good views nearby. Ideal loc”
Birgu could easily be one of the best locations to stay in. This rental is in a very cozy area of it and has great spots which overlook the city very close to it. Also restaurants are very near. The apartment itself is very clean and has everything you need. Never encountered hosts that are this quick to respond. All our messages were replied to in about a minute. Very friendly and understandable communication.

“Probably our favourite place to stay in Malta.”
The location is perfect, minutes walk from the main square and waterside restaurants yet quiet and peaceful at night.

“Stylish and historic”
It's a beautifully and stylish renovated apartment in an old historic building. We loved the interior and the location, it's like living in an open air museum as the whole area of Vittoriosa consists of old buildings and streets, just beautiful. The location was actually my favorite part of the holiday, I thought it was more beautiful than Mdina. Communication with the host company was great, they always answered very quick to any question we had. Bed was comfortable and I loved the little walk in dressing room. Only problem was to find a parking spot but on the second day we finally found a good place. Overall highly recommended.

“Nine nights in historic Birgu”
Fantastic location in a beautiful quiet old city , few tourists and not much through traffic . Superb comms via WhatsApp. Spotlessly clean , reliable WiFi , comfy bed , excellent shower , enough crockery and cooking utensils . Very recently refurbished to a good standard in an old building . Washing machine with tumble drier . A lovely touch was a complimentary bottle of red wine. It's 10 minutes walk to the Three Cities ferry for Valletta (which takes just 10 minutes) and just beyond there to the local shop. From the apartment it's 5 minutes walk to "Fortini"bus stop routes 3 and 4 to Valletta in 25 minutes. Eateries on the main square in Birgu; also go over the bridge after the ferry terminal to Senglea for waterfront dining looking across to Birgu . Download Ecabs or Bolt app : taxi from airport to apartment about 9 euros .

“A great choice for the old city.”
Though it has a small footprint it is a very comfortable apartment, we liked the history of the building and the surrounding area. The apartment had everything we needed for a good stay.

“Great stay in the heart of Birgu, old city of Malta!”
Fantastic location in the heart of the city! It’s just steps away from great restaurants and shops. We rented a car and were pleased to find convenient parking available. The space itself is cozy, with a comfortable bed, and there’s a charming bird shop nearby, so you wake up to the pleasant sound of birds singing in the morning.

“Excellent!”
It was an excellent stay. The apartment is beautifully decorated, the bed is comfortable, and it is equipped with all necessary appliances. It is situated in an amazing location, in the authentic part of the city, which is simply lovely. The small town where the apartment is located is considered one of the must-visit spots in Malta, offering stunning seaside promenades, historic walls, and charming restaurants. Breakfast spots are just a few minutes away. The bus stop to Valletta is very close and well-connected. A taxi to Valletta is also reasonably priced, and you can alternatively reach it by boat.
