Party central hotel. Ideal for same-sex groups not couples or families.
Pool hectic every single day with large, same-sex groups who camp out from 11am until sundown so incredibly hard to get a sun lounger - even harder to get and keep some in the shade. Many camp out in the pool itself which also makes it hard to enjoy the pool as it is small.
There is bar service up next to the pool which is a plus but the food menu is limited and pretty sub-par in quality.
Location is up a hill and very close to loud bars and clubs. Often hear people in the early hours walking past. Hotel is not 4* in my opinion. Very basic room but it is cleaned well and regularly.
Expensive for what you get. Would suggest to same-sex party groups only. Not worth it if you aren't on their sort of similar schedule as they just take over.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel despite it being located in a busy and noisy area. We were greeted by a member of staff named "Stephania" (I apologise if I am not recalling her name correctly, as I am writing this review more than a week later). She was exceptionally welcoming, demonstrating great professionalism and courtesy. After a long day of travelling, she immediately put us at ease and provided helpful advice and directions to interesting places to visit in Valletta. The rest of the staff were also very polite. Our room had a great view to the bay. Was quiet and clean. Breakfast was Ok. The pool area has an amazing view. Only down side was we found large black hairs on two of the bathroom towels which was definitely not great as my partner is blonde. Nevertheless we would return to this hotel again.

Amazing experience at Mercure St. Julian’s Malta. The staff were incredibly kind and even upgraded our room, which was a lovely surprise.
Special shoutout to Erik at reception super kind and extremely helpful, giving us great tips about everything to see and do in the area.
Great location, beautiful rooftop pool, and excellent breakfast. Would absolutely stay here again!

The hotel is conveniently located in the center of St. Julian, next to the bus station, a wide choice of restaurants and shops. It offers private parking space and a roof-top swimming pool with a lovely view. Our family suite, which was clean and well equipped. The breakfast buffet offered a wide choice, including some local options. We appreciated the friendly and efficient service of the entire team! Highly recommended for both business and vacations in Malta!

I stayed two nights at Mercure St. Julian’s Malta and it was great experience. The location is very safe and quiet, though St. Julian’s felt the most modernized city in Malta.
The room was very clean and spacious enough for solo travelers, along with variety of amenities. It even included a capsule coffee machine for free. The view from the balcony was nice.
I’m impressed by their buffet breakfast as well. Typical hotel breakfast in this price zone only includes two or three hot foods, but here there were like eight to ten. Also enough variety of veggies, breads, desserts and drinks.
The only concern during the stay was that the water pressure of shower was a little bit weak, though I experience this in almost every hotels so not quite a problem.
I’d recommend this hotel if you’re looking for somewhere with high standards. Considering the service, the price is appropriate.
