Pleasant little hotel

The Lemontree Relais is a pleasant little hotel. Its facilities are basic, although has a nice pool to sun yourself. I have no criticism of it, although it is a taxi ride away from anything you want to do.

I had a great time at Lemon Tree. The guest house is incredibly beautiful (the pictures are accurate!), the room facilities were slightly basic but all in good working order and everything was spotless and well maintained. But it's the hosting that is where it really comes into its own. Andreina and everyone who works here are the most welcoming of hosts, and the home-cooked breakfast every morning (with many traditional Maltese options) was the absolute highlight! I stated I am pescetarian and Andreina was extremely accomodating - adapting every recipe to my dietary requirements. Żabbar is a really nice place to stay - it's incredibly quiet, the locals are very friendly, and there's a really frequent 90/91 bus from Żabbar town centre to Valletta bus station - whence you can get a bus to anywhere else in Malta. (There are also buses 92/93/94 closer to Lemon Tree but they are less frequent than the 90/91.) I also walked to Birgu on my first day - distances in Malta are tiny enough that if the weather allows, it is possible to get around on foot. The only downside was the shower, which gets its water from a tank and so is quite inconsistent in both pressure and temperature. But this was a minor inconvenience when everything else was so great. I would definitely stay at Lemon Tree again! Thank you Andreina and everyone!

Lemon Tree is in a quiet part of Malta, which is just what we wanted, but it's easy to get to Three Cities and then the water taxi into Valetta. The staff were all very friendly, helpful, polite and full of local information. The pool is not big but a nice place to cool down and the area with the lemon trees in the garden is a perfect place to sit and relax. The room was big, very clean and full of character but with modern twists. Love the honesty jar idea when we used the mini bar. It was perfect for what we wanted on this holiday.

La atención personalizada me gustó mucho. Se siente uno como en la casa. La anfitriona Monica es muy amable y simpática. A pesar de que no hablamos inglés trató de ayudarnos, darse a comprender y lo más difícil que nos entendiera. El desayuno es muy bueno. Creo que vale el precio pagado. Se siente uno como en la casa pues es un hotel pequeño y acogedor.

Kleines, ruhiges Hotel inmitten des maltesischen Alltags. Sehr hilfsbereites und freundliches Personal, mit Tipps für Ausflüge oder gutes traditionelles Essen. Lemon Tree ist perfekt für all die, die keinen all-inclusive Massentourismus möchten.

Beautiful little guest house.

Fantastic little guest house with warm friendly and welcoming staff. We loved spending time to our room as it was so beautiful and quiet. Good breakfast, nice little pool area. It really was a lovely stay! P.s. Easy access to Valetta and souroundings.

Mixed experience in this nice b&b in Zabbar

The structure itself is very nice, located in the quieter town of zabbar, but still close to the three cities and Valetta. Unfortunately we were there during the winter, and the rooms were very humid and difficult to keep warm. This is a common issue with the maltese houses, but for a hospitality structure catering for northern europeans, we expected better facilities to keep the room warm/non humid. Furthermore the water of the shower appeared to last about 15 minutes before it was 'finished'. This meant it was not possible to take two warm showers one after the other without having to be quick. Our overal impression was that the b&b would work well in the warmer months, with its pool and open character, but at the moment is not a comfortable stay in the winter months.
