What guests think

Talbot & Bons Bed & Breakfast is a charming, stone-built B&B within a 10-15 minute walk of Malta's airport, praised for friendly, responsive staff, smooth self check-in, characterful rooms, a pleasant courtyard pool, and a satisfying continental breakfast.

A number of rooms are reached via steep, winding stairs and there is no elevator, while reception operates limited hours. Nearby dining is sparse, and a handful of guests noted code or instruction hiccups, minor maintenance or pump noise, and occasional cleanliness lapses. Overall, expect a convenient, characterful stopover close to the airport.

hotel was located in the middle of nowhere. it was deceptive to advertise that it was within a short walking distance from/to the airport. one would have to across very busy wide roads with suitcases. no elevator. we had two large suitcases as we were going on a cruise. we struggled to get to our room. breakfast - flies buzzing over a pathetic spread.

Un super B&B proche de l’aéroport, très pratique. Le personnel est très gentil, les chambres sont bien, le petit déjeuner dans le patio est très agréable. La piscine est petite mais parfaite pour se rafraîchir. Notre vol était en fin d’après midi et nous avons pu rester profiter de la piscine toute après midi

Our recent stay at Talbot and Bons was amazing. The rooms were spacious, modern, and lovely, and the property was beautiful. The only thing I wish I had understood was that we might have to carry heavy luggage up several staircases. If you have any mobility challenges or expect heavy luggage, I would recommend requesting accessibility.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay we should have been more than one night! Very thoughtful design the little breakfast room is adorable. It needs to be on a magazine… Love the pool area. The only thing my husband and I were undecided about was the wine room because they only are a B&B and no one was there or available for their beautiful wine room. Keep up the good work and thank you for your thoughtfulness

Fatal. Mi mujer incluso queria que nos fueramos a otro sitio. Lo unico que salva el desastre, es que la habitacion es grande, que tenian varios adaptadores de corriente UK y la decoracion. Pero ahi queda todo. Los estandares de limpieza, en general en Malta, estan muy por debajo de lo que yo considero una habitacion limpia. Cuando llegamos la puerta y la ventana de la habitacion estaban abiertas de par en par y la habitacion llena de moscas. A simple vista es muy coqueta la habitacion, pero a poco que te fijes, empiezas a ver telarañas, migas en los sillones, marcas de oxido en el suelo, polvo en la Tv y en cualquier superficie oscura, etc. La puerta de entrada es como una puerta de paso de una vivienda, con cristal al igual que la ventana del baño, donde han colocado un vinilo traslucido pero que no llega a cubrir el cristal por competo. Si vas a ducharte y hay alguien enfrente, tiene espectaculo asegurado. La recepcion solo esta abierta en un horario limitado, de hecho yo llegue sobre las 15:00 y ahi no habia nadie. No vi a nadie hasta el dia siguiente que ya nos ibamos. Es una lastima, porque el lugar tiene su encanto, y esforzandose bastante mas en la limpieza y el adecentamiento de la habitacion en general, ganaria muchos enteros.

Great for if you need to be close to the airport. Easy 15 minutes walk. We used as we had a flight in the morning. Good instructions for entry as we arrived later on in the evening. Room was okay. Can tell the owners have taken care with the design but was not quite to our tastes. Lighting was too dim for our liking. Sure others will love it. Bedside table tops had a bit of dust so cleaniness could be improved. Bed was comfy though. Bathroom was spacious but shower pressure was a bit low and hot water ran out towards the end of the second person's shower. Great to have coffee and tea provided in the room with a specific coffee machine. Milk was also provided but was actually stored in the fridge with all the minibar drinks which you pay for so initially didn't look in there! Breakfast was ok. You could juice your own orange juice which was the highlight for us. Some cold meats, breads. Problem for us was that the outside eating area was exposed to the sun and so was uncomfortable with the bright light and heat. The sun umbrellas were not set up for use. Also, it was unfortunate that due to the season, a few insects were flying around. Guess that it's the price of being outside. Area around the B&B was quiet but the planes could be heard from the airport in the morning.

Beautiful large room with quirky features. Nice lounge area beside a small pool. Convenient location to the airport. Unfortunately there is no option to book without breakfast which isnt ideal for early flights. The host did make up a take away breakfast of juice and meat sandwiched between dry bread. Not great and kids refused to eat it. Also noise from the room above, which sounded like a washing machine on spin, kept us awake most of the night

The Room was clean and a good size. My son loved the little pool. There was a nice area outside the room where we could sit and relax. Location is excellent for the airport and the staff were very nice and very helpful. The beds were not very comfortable, especially the pull out sofa bed my son was in. The air con leaked, the bedside table was either broken or poorly designed as it kept toppling over and there was a huge crack I’m the painting on the wall by my sons bed which is dangerous. It was ok for one night but I wouldn’t have liked to stay longer.

There was an issue with the PIN code but a quick phone call and it was sorted. Room was lovely but up some curved staircases - my fault for not checking. Breakfast was lovely and I cannot fault the service.

När jag bokade hotellet stod det att jag skulle få instruktioner kring incheckningen inom 24 timmar från tiden man skulle bo där. Jag fick inget sådant mejl och blev mycket osäker på om jag skulle komma in överhuvudtaget då Receptionen inte är öppen på kvällen. När vi väl kom dit fick man ringa på en klocka för att bli insläppt vilket gick bra, men det var väldigt mycket oro i onödan hela dagen på grund av osäkerheten kring incheckningen. Bra att det skrivs ut i så fall. Nu står det ju fel då det inte går ut något mejl innan alls. Vi bad om frukostpåse då flyget gick innan frukosttiden men fick ingen. Hotellet är mycket fint! Otroligt mysigt med liten pool på innergården. Kan varmt rekommendera stället och det är endast 10 minuters promenad till flygplatsen.

Although the owner did us a great favor by giving us a wakeup call, we could not enter the hotel with the given code. We were lucky to have been followed shortly after being denied access by another couple who was staying there and opened the door for us. We were disappointed in not getting the balcony we requested with our room. However, the room was spacious and comfortable.

A lovely room with a well cared for environment, in a pleasant town a short walk from the airport - would highly recommend.
