Reviews of Casa Lapira

Great location.

The property was clean and in a really central spot. Paul the owner was really lovely and welcoming and we really enjoyed our stay.

One thing that could have been improved would be replenishing the kitchen bits, such as sugar sachets and more tea choices but this is very minor and didn’t impact our stay.

Top location for exploring Valletta and the island. Easy access and check in. Nice views.

Extremely hot. Aircon was working but not cooling well the room, resulting in a hot cool room situation. It would also stop working after a few hours being on which means you d wake up at night with 29 degrees to turn it on again. Location is very central, which comes also at a cost of noise as the alley downstairs is very busy with restaurants and bars and people until very late at night. Insulation is very poor.

Great location for sightseeing. Good shower very powerful. Clean room host and daughter were lovely.

The cooker did not work, the host did not respond in time to my message so I had to throw out my food I was planning on cooking. No natural light in the room, very dark and dreary, brought the mode of the trip down. Air conditioning needs to be updated it is very old and not powerful turns off on its own all of the time.

Great location for the city center and boat and charming house

A bit noisy in the morning in the hall (staff cleaning) and at night (from outside, restaurant). Windows do not isolate from the noise

The location could not be better. There are a lot of restaurants nearby, and you can reach everywhere in Valletta on foot.

Great location and spacious clean room.

The ac was turning off after some time. We had to turn it on again every 3 hours or so. The response could have been more prompt.

Fabulous stay, it was a real find, right in the hub but far enough away to be quiet. Great position, everything within walking distance and we even found a swimming platform nearby. Pauli was a great host, highly recommend for a few days in Valetta and try the family restaurant just round the corner, Michelin recommended and the best food we eat while in Malta.

Never did get me head round the TV controls……not an issue for us, but Room 6 is on the top floor so a few sets of stairs but wherever you go in Valletta there are steps, it’s part of the charm.

Great location, spacious room with many amenities.

The host should be more considerate of guests' preferences. He insisted that we book a taxi from the airport to Casa Lapira, even though I had informed him that we were offered free transport by booking.com. He also suggested we check in before 1:00 PM, despite the booking page clearly stating that check-in is available from 1:00 PM to 12:00 AM. As a result, we had to adjust our plans to accommodate his proposed time. The bathroom was clean overall, but there were visible signs of mold in the shower, a rusty pipe under the sink, and some humidity damage. These areas need a more thorough cleaning. For a price of €122 per night, I expected higher room standards.

Beautiful terrace and balcony. Room was excellent, great kitchen facilities, it was enjoyable to just be in the room. Location is wonderful. Owner was lovely and very accommodating. Couldn't reccomend more.

Well situated. Not fancy but nice.

Fantastic location and very helpful host . Very clean and comfortable rooms

All was Good

The property was excellent - great location, very comfortable/spotlessly clean and the owner Paul was super helpful and responsive.

I liked everything. I suppose there are bars and restaurants nearby so there is a little noise but that’s partly what make it a great location and it didn’t disturb me as they quietened down after 11pm. It’s a nice area.

Excellent place to stay in Valletta, comfortable bed, lovely and clean with views of the harbour. Close to great restaurants including Lapira the family run restaurant, we ate there 2 nights the food is amazing and staff very friendly. Paul the owner was very friendly and helpful. We were close to the wharf to catch a fast ferry to Gozo and a traditional boat over the harbour. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to traveling back to Malta.

Leaving

very clean, the staff is very friendly, very safe

Paul was very supportive, he helped us with an early acommodation and also the last day we were able to leave our luggage in the property, because of a late flight. The villa is very authentic, we like very much the balcony.

As we have many devices like phones, watches, tablets, etc. we needed more electrical outlets to plug all of them, but this was not a big issue

The host, mr. Paul Lapira, is an excellent person. Because of some shooting of Netflix series we had to change our room during our stay. Paul gave us a better room and allowed us to stay one night more for free, that solved our issue of having to spend part of the last day/night outside, given the early morning flight. He is very kind and accomodating, the room is very comfortable, large, clean and right in the center of Valletta. Lapira is the undisputed number 1 in Malta!

Would have appreciated the shower gel instead of hand soap in the shower, but this is negligible compared to the overall stay.

Great location. The interior is nothing special, but it has everything you need. I recommend booking their taxi service, it’s reasonably priced, the driver is friendly, and it takes you directly to the door
