Question 1

Where is the best place to stay in Malta?

Accepted Answer

Sliema and St. Julian's — perfect for couples and nightlife, close to restaurants, bars, and shops. Valletta — the historic centre, unique atmosphere, pricier. Mellieħa — quiet north, close to beaches (Golden Bay). Bugibba/Qawra — family resort, wide range of hotels at all price points. Birgu (Vittoriosa) — intimate, authentic, and cheaper than Valletta.

Question 2

How much does accommodation in Malta cost?

Accepted Answer

Hostel bed from €20–35/night, apartment from €50–90/night, 3-star hotel from €70–120/night, 4–5-star hotel from €130–300+/night. Sliema and St. Julian's are pricier than Bugibba or Mellieħa. Prices rise 30–60% in peak season (July–August). Polish travellers recommend self-catering apartments as the best value for money.

Question 3

Is it better to stay in Malta or Gozo?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your travel style. Malta — if you enjoy nightlife, historic sites, and a wider choice of restaurants. Gozo — if you're after peace, authenticity, and private farmhouses with pools. Ideal itinerary for 7 days: 2–3 nights in Gozo + the rest in Malta (or the other way round). The Gozo–Malta ferry runs around the clock, every 45 minutes.

Question 4

Can I get to Malta by ferry or plane?

Accepted Answer

Malta has an international airport (MIA) — direct flights from Poland (Warsaw, Kraków, Wrocław, Poznań, Katowice) with LOT, Ryanair, and Wizz Air. There are no direct ferries from Poland to Malta. From Malta to Gozo: Gozo Channel from Cirkewwa to Mġarr about every 45 minutes (€4.65 return for foot passengers), plus passenger fast ferries from Valletta and the new Sliema/Buġibba → Gozo route.

Question 5

How do I get around Malta without a car?

Accepted Answer

Buses (Malta Public Transport) cover most of the island — services run from Valletta to all major towns. Bolt/Uber available 24 hours — cheaper than taxis. For shorter distances: electric scooters (Bolt Scooters) in Sliema and Valletta. Car rental from €25/day — cost-effective for groups and trips to Gozo.
