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.

staff was super nice to me. when I asked something they quickly reacted. I think that hostel is pretty clean I noticed they cleaned rooms, boxes, kitchen etc.. often. Sauna was nice bonus. I was here at the end of march so it was great to warm myself in sauna few times. Not sure if all rooms have shower and bathroom in the room but we had and I think its for all rooms like that.

Very clean, I had a bedroom for my own with my bathroom. I paid 17€ and had a room alone; with a perfect breakfast and what to do my launch for mid journey . Toilets and shower are poor of lights but it’s ok for this price !

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Single female traveller: the location was safe, v central, quiet but v convenient for sightseeing and eating out. Also v convenient for the bus station and cheap local buses to all parts of the island. The outlook over the gardens was beautiful. The host was super helpful with suggestions for sightseeing and restaurants.

    The hostel has a great location, close to the main street and you can see the harbor from the bedroom window, the premises are spacious, clean and stylish. Lockers available, but you have to bring your own small padlock. And bring your own hairdryer with you if you will need such because it's not provided on spot.

    The location and the price are perfect to visit Malta's capital city on a low budget. The apartment where the rooms are is very nice and in an historical place. We were even very lucky to have a violoncello duo (guests of the hostel) playing a short concert in the living room on Sunday evening. Great idea! Thank you Marina!

    Clean, comfortable, quiet, well equipped, good air conditioning, and great location with an Arkadia supermarket nearby for supplies (e.g. toilet paper). Bus station not far away giving access to all the major visitor attractions. Host gave good advice on use of Bolt taxis which were fast and cheap. Host was flexible on arrival times when inbound flight was badly delayed.
