At follow the Sun boutique hostel - formerly inhawi hostel - it’s not just about where you sleep—it’s about where you hang out, make connections, and create memories. Chill by our pool with killer views down to the sea, kick back in our cozy lounge perfect for taking some time out after a long day of adventures, or join in one of our bar or social nights. Come join us, and soak up the good times in the heart of Malta. Calling the beautiful seaside town of St. Julian’s our home, we’re all about good vibes, new friends, and unforgettable memories. Staying with us puts you right in the middle of the action. Whether you’re here to chill and catch the sunsets on Malta’s gorgeous beaches or hit the nightlife , we are the perfect spot to experience it all. Beaches like Balluta Bay and St. George’s Bay are just a quick walk away. Plus, it’s just over the hill to the epic party scene in Paceville, and only 10 minutes from Sliema to grab a bite to eat. Everything location, friendly staff, breakfast. Though I stayed there for 2 days but those 2 days were so good. I will definitely recommend this hostel to the other solo travellers.

Conveniently located in the centre of Sliema and 200 metres from the ferry harbour, Two Pillows Boutique Hostel is less than a 10-minute walk from Sliema's Tower Road beach. All its rooms offer free Wi-Fi. It's been more than 10 years since I started coming to this hostel, and honestly, it is still one of the best I know in all of Europe. I mean, it is clean, very clean, spacious, comfortable, and very well located. In many hostels, the rooms stink, but that is not the case here, and on top of that, the beds are very comfortable!

At the hostel, all rooms come with a wardrobe. Rooms are complete with a private bathroom, while some units at Walters Guest House also provide guests with a balcony. I arrived in the morning....Mark was very happy and welcoming to show me around. Walters was very clean, comfortable, and a brilliant location. Mark was super helpful with everything, such as telling me all that I needed inside and around the surrounding area. Ie where to eat, where buy essentials etc... I also loved the roof garden to chill in the evenings. I would definitely return and recommend this place to my friends and family.
