Lady Todd

I had a very pleasant stay at Lady Todd and was very satisfied overall. The room was exceptionally clean, and the towels were changed and the room cleaned every day, which I did not expect. The staff were kind, helpful, and clearly made an effort to make guests feel welcome. The location is excellent for exploring Malta, only a few minutes from public transport and the ferry. Breakfast was good and sufficiently varied for the five days we stayed. The internet connection was also good. Overall, I was very happy with this accommodation and would gladly recommend it.

The only minor inconvenience was that the room did not have EU plug sockets or adapters available, so we had to buy an adapter ourselves. It would be useful if the hotel could provide them, perhaps for rent or against a deposit. Breakfast and the reception desk are located in another hotel about 50 metres away, but this was not a problem for us. The room also did not have a particular view, but that did not affect our stay. Finally, it seems that the location tag on Booking may be slightly inaccurate, as the hotel is actually closer to the sea. However, these were all very minor details and did not significantly affect our overall very positive impression

Nice, no-frills hotel with really spacious, very clean rooms, friendly staff and good location. But...

When we visit places, we like to actually see the local hustle and bustle, especially in places like Malta with the cute and colorful bay windows and lively streets. So we contacted the property two months in advance to ask if they had a room with street/city view available for the time of our visit. They almost instantly replied saying they took note of our request, but this was 'subject to availability at time of check-in'. Coming from the very people who are solely responsible for 'availability', this comes across as just a polite way of saying 'we don't care and will not bother'. So we decided to book our room via the Booking website, where Lady Todd had no less than three rooms specifically with 'city view' on offer. Imagine our dismay when on arrival we were given a room at the back of the building, overlooking empty courtyards and blind walls. The really friendly ladies at check-in were totally unaware of our request or what had been offered on the Booking website, so obviously no note was taken or care was given. They offered to switch rooms at a later time, but we don't like being shoved around like tetris blocks to conform to their 'availability', just so the hotel can say they complied. Just imagine ordering a chocolate cake well in advance and the baker replies 'we'll see what's available two months from now'. Next you end up with a carrot cake and a voucher for chocolate muffins the next day. So if you like a lottery and don't care what room you end up in, Lady Todd may be the place for you. If you want to actually get the room you booked, look elsewhere.

Room and bathroom was super nice. Super spacious. Very happy with everything and staff was very friendly.

Wifi in room wasn't strong enough to work, but probably not an issue for many people

The location is close to Valletta, which is convenient, but it's quite far from the ferry terminals if you're planning to visit the other islands. Our room was quiet at night, but during the day it was quite noisy, making it hard to relax either in the morning or during the day. The staff seemed friendly, but we often had to ask multiple times to get what we needed. As for the breakfast recommended by reception, it was disappointing — it tasted old and wasn’t as good as expected.
