Where do I start? An Indian boy who arrived in Malta with no expectations whatsoever, been blown away by how good the people I’ve met there. I became friends with everyone: be it the owner, the staff, the fellow travellers. One of them who I’ve become extremely close with “Yoran from the Netherlands, Rachael from South Africa, Claire the Australian, The Italian guy(forgot his name),Emily from the US, Pedro from Brazil to name a few and everyone who shared the place from the 19th to the 26th of July 23. Thank you for making my stay comfortable. Cheers x

Follow the Sun Boutique Hostel - Pool, Breakfast & Sea Views

Everything was perfect. The location was great as the bus stops were nearby (including the one of the last bus to the airport). The room and the hostel as a unit was very clean. Staff was kind and helpful. I loved the breakfast' s variety (served as a buffet from 7:30 am) and the nespresso machine which additionally provides hot chocolate and cocoa-milk during that time. In the kitchen you can find complimentary tea bags, coffee and other products important for cooking. The kitchen was well equiped and there were plenty tables for everyone. Essential to be mentioned is that they provide towels for free and that each bed has curtains permitting you to have some privacy. It also has its own plugs, small shelf and bed light lamp. I was also astonished to find 2 toilets, both equiped with showers in a 4-bed women room. It was a game changer, especially for ladies. We always had hot water and the staff always took the initiative to turn on our a/c in order to secure the good temperature of the room. To conclude, Inhawi Hostel is a great affordable place, ideal to make some new friends (they organize lots of activities e.x. yoga to help you meet people). I do propose it and I will definetely come back.

    Everything was clean, the room was pretty quiet, there are 3 toilets, one im the room, the other two in the common area, and two bathrooms. Kitchen and leisure rooms were quite nice and there were loads of dishes. Beach is nearby as well as the stores. And there is a very cheap bakery just above the hostel. Guests are really quiet. Use the jacuzzi, it is cool! The staff was really really nice and helpful! Would recommend!

    This is by far the best Hostel I've ever been to: pretty cheap, but excellent services. Nice, comfortable and clean rooms, an amzin living room and kitchen, forthcoming staff etc... I'm still a little incredulous because it exceeded my expectations that were shaped by other hostels that aren't as good as this
