Lantern Guest House

+ Fácil de encontrar y cerca de restaurantes/mar + Desayuno 15 minutos antes, según acuerdo - Al llegar, la puerta estaba cerrada, no había nadie allí, justo después de llamar por teléfono, alguien llegó desde afuera para dejarnos entrar - Impuestos por 2 noches el doble de lo estándar (50 centavos por persona y noche en toda Malta) - Bienvenida fría y desaparecieron nuevamente - Contacto solo por SMS/llamadas, lo que significa costos adicionales para los turistas cada vez - Reservamos una habitación con cama doble, pusieron dos camas individuales a unos 20 cm de otra "juntas" - Baño muy pequeño con una puerta semitransparente - Sin privacidad - Parecía que las paredes estaban fuera de cartón ya que escuchamos cada paso dentro y fuera del edificio como en nuestra propia habitación - Frío en la habitación - Desayuno bien, sin embargo, tuvimos mucho mejor durante nuestro viaje a Malta dentro del mismo rango de precios En general, no nos sentimos cómodos ni bienvenidos dentro de esa casa de huéspedes y no recomendaríamos alojarnos allí.

Goede service, fijne locatie en een lekker ontbijt.

I had booked a one-night stay for my daughter and her friends, and I was certain I had booked from Saturday, March 1st, to March 2nd. I sent the deposit via Revolut, and everything seemed fine up to that point. I made the booking over the phone, and to be fair, I never asked for a booking confirmation – that was my mistake. When Saturday arrived, they went to check in, only to be told that the booking was actually for the previous night. I called the owner, but he kept insisting that he had tried calling me and couldn’t reach me. However, when I asked him to show me the call log as proof, he refused. When I asked for the deposit back, he said he couldn’t refund it because it was our fault. He didn’t even have the decency to try and offer them an alternative solution. Unfortunately, they lost their entire night out since we couldn’t find another place for them to stay. It’s not about the €50 deposit, but about the way we were treated. Be careful, because they might do the same to you, especially during busy periods. It really felt like a scam.

A very nice, comfortable guesthouse a few minutes' walk from the sometimes wet and windy, picturesque seafront, the Lantern Guest House is pretty much one of the best places I have ever stayed! Joseph and the ladies who help him are very helpful, and are happy to give advice about the area. My room was at the front, third floor, via the lift, and the room was very comfortable with a small balcony and a lovely bed with soft pillows and bedding. Joseph's English breakfast was very good - I had to avoid the cake or I would've gone home the size of an elephant, but I walked away from breakfast feeling very full up, and coffee'd up! The bathroom was small but easy to use. There are some good supermarkets nearby, and transport around the island is nearby. Below the guest house is the Lantern restaurant - a very good menu for diners, I had lamb shanks, perfectly cooked, very enjoyable. The area has other great restaurants; the Smugglers Cave does great roast chicken, while the Hot Wok Chinese restaurant cooked me a fantastic chicken with green peppers in black bean sauce. Coffee shops - the small but hip Coffee Circus makes a good brew, and the Candy Cafe on the seafront makes pretty much the best Americano I've had in years (Saquella coffee rocks!) served very well by the polite young people working there!

We just got back from an amazing break spent at the Lantern. All family members are so friendly and nice, guesthouse is spotlessly clean and the room was beautiful. Thank you so much for making our second stay so relaxing and welcome. Be back soon🙂. Read less

Well done and a BIG thank you to Joseph and his family for making this a unforgettable short holiday. My wife and i have just spent the weekend at Lantern Guesthouse, Marsalforn were everything was excellent. Cleanliness all-around and great choice of English and continental breakfast prepared by Joseph’s mother and all the family. It was evident, that once you go to the Lantern, you keep on going there as Joseph and his family make you feel appreciated I recommend this guesthouse to all and surely it won’t be the last time that we go there again. Thank you all for your excellent service and hospitality. Joe and Josephine Cassar
