The Snop House

We spent 5 lovely days at the Snop House in April. We met the owners, have a warmly welcome and passionate sharings. Shawn and Aalaya welcome us with kindness and efficiency. The rooms and the hotel are very clean. It was perfect. We strongly recommend the rooftop with the splendid view on the 3 cities. Thanks a lot for every things Frederick

My stay at The Snop House has been fantastic: beautiful bright room with modern bath room, very comfortable bed, delicious breakfast, quiet atmosphere, numerous works of art in the building and overwhelming view from the roof top. But the best was the excellent support by Shawn and the staff. Many thanks!

We spent a delightful six nights at the Shop House. The hotel was perfect, close to local restaurants and the ferry to Valetta. Mr and Mrs Snop were lovely, very helpful and welcoming. Sean was lovely, helpful and they were all a font of knowledge about Malta. I would thoroughly recommend staying there!!

The hotel was perfect close to restaurants, the ferry to Valetta and bus routes. Mr and Mrs Snop were lovely and welcoming, and Sean was a font of knowledge about Malta. The rooms were immaculate and comfortable, and the breakfast set us up for the day. Thoroughly recommend staying there if you can.

A lovely hotel in a great location for exploring Valetta and the 3 cities on foot. It was easy to park the hire car in the square and use as a base to explore the wider Island. The hotel has lovely rooms, a wonderful roof terrace for a drink before dinner and lots of nice restaurants within walking distance. Lots of choice for breakfast and fantastic personal service. Highly recommended.

Fantastic small hotel in a great location to be able to explore Valetta and the Three Cities. Lovely bedrooms, amazing service and sumptuous breakfasts. Easy access to lots of great restaurants and bar on the coastline.

A wonderful stay of a few nights in Senglea at The Snop House. We arrived quite early in the day i.e. well ahead of the allowed check in - but this seemed no issue at all (in fact it was noted on our welcome documents so the team were prepared). Actually nothing seemed a problem all the time we were there and everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful. Our room was fantastic and remained cool despite the hot weather outside. There was very little need of the aircon (only used this for a little blast to cool me down when coming in from town). Nice and spacious, big comfortable bed - and wonderfully soft pillows! (A very good sign). There was chilled water in the mini-fridge (this is topped up every morning - or can help ourselves from the dispenser in the kitchen). The room was tastefully done out and everything about the place was very ‘boutique’. Lots of little touches just to make it that little bit special. Really friendly team and owners. Lovely breakfast. Home made yoghurts. Fresh fruit. One morning we even got home made savoury pastries that were stunning. The location is great. Senglea seems to be a place of ‘locals' and free of the tourist ‘masses’. Only a 10 minute walk down to the ferry which whisked us across to Valletta (a good tip is that the ferry ticket allows you free use of the Barrakka lift in Valletta which is an amazing way to save the legs as it takes you to the top of town. Quite impressive - and much needed). Loved the honesty bar upstairs and the roof terrace. Lovely views - and really relaxing. Enjoyed some good Maltese Chardonnay - and much cheaper than in a bar! In fact, we were the only ones using the roof terrace in the late evening. So relaxing. Returning from the ferry we learned that it was better to take the steps a little further along the marina - as considerably less challenging on tired legs. To be honest, The Snop House is a wonderful - and friendly - retreat from the hustle and bustle of Malta. We loved it.

If I could, I would give this place a rating of 11! Where to start..... excellent location in Senglea on a quiet street with groceries and pharmacies close by. Walking distance to the water front where you will find excellent restaurants with a beautiful view. The ferry to Valleta is also a 15 mins walk from the hotel. We had a larger room facing the street with an excellent bed and large bathroom. The whole building is adorned with pieces of art personally selected by the owners. Breakfast is served downstairs and comprises of fresh bread and baked items, yogurt, jams (you must try the prickly pear jam), hard boiled eggs, cheese and cold cuts, and of course any type of coffee you desire. But what makes the place so inviting are both Shawn and Matthew at the reception, as well as the housekeeping staff, who go the extra step to make you feel right at home. Sublime!

Excellent hosts: friendly, professional, helpful, very quick to fix any issues with the room. Great sized room, with impressive decor and furnishings. Fantastic continental breakfasts (no cooked food apart from boiled eggs), freshly prepared to order. Plenty of good quayside restaurants available, a few minutes' walk down the hill (there are lots of steps, but these can be avoided if you take a longer route down). The ferry to Valletta is approx 10 minutes' walk away, with departures roughly every half hour. There is lots of street parking available, free of charge. We couldn't fault this hotel, and would highly recommend.
