The Snop House

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. A perfect BB in the heart of the ancient city of Senglea, one of the three older parts of Valleta. Tasty locally sourced food for breakfast, attentive staff and spotless rooms. A great base for walking, dining, sightseeing and relaxing. Thank you and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend or return.

We have just spent a week at the Snop House and have nothing but praise for the accommodation and staff who made the stay a real pleasure. The owners of the House have clearly not stinted in the refurbishment they have made to the property which has transformed the interior of a traditional Maltese house into a luxurious place to stay without losing the original feel. A feature of the House is the extensive range of interesting paintings and sculptures. The absence of a television in the room was initially surprising but actually if anything it enhanced the holiday and meant instead unwinding with a book and a glass of wine on the rooftop terrace or taking advantage of the nearby bars and restaurants surrounding the harbour. Others have mentioned the ease of access to Valetta via the ferry, whilst the bus service on the island is cheap. It's worth flagging that the most direct route to the harbour and ferry is via a flight of 98 steps but if mobility is an issue then the bus stop is almost adjacent to Snop House. Shawn and Elia could not have been more welcoming and helpful. That sense of welcome was reflected in everyone we met from the island and - together with its fascinating history - made for a great holiday.
