What our students said about St. Julians

Rating: 2/5

The city is very pleasant, it has everything to make life easier, however, the use of the chip for the cell phone was very problematic. The school provided us with one and when I installed it, I went to the store, paid 20 euros, but it didn't work, after a week I went back to complain and nobody managed to make the chip work and I almost lost my money. The services are bad in terms of kindliness and customer service, they really don't seem to want us there. One day, a bus driver almost threw me off the bus because I didn't have any change, he was rude and yelled at me. My friend could have paid to me, but he didn't even let me talk to her.

It's a place for party people. Too much for me. But great for making new friends. Cleanliness in Malta is a problem, although they clean some streets daily tourists throw cigarette butts everywhere and also other rubbish. The system of rubbish in plastic bags all over the streets is a stupid idea. Cats tear the bags, cockroaches crawl into them and the wind blows the rubbish around...

I had already been to St.Julians six years ago with my oldest son and had really enjoyed Portomaso and the area around Spinola Bay. I knew about the nightlife and on purpose, having come this time with the whole family, I booked the hotel close to the school but a bit outside the nightlife. Since we had lessons between 11:45 a.m. and 3 p.m. I didn't have a chance to get around much

St. Julians has a great nightlife for people of all ages, but also offers various activities during the day. The beaches are very small and not very clean, but perfect for a quick dip. I definitely recommend visiting other cities in Malta, such as Valletta or Gozo Island, as they are quite different from St. Julians.

Plenty of places with good food, great seafood. Mini sandy beach - super place to catch your breath. Towards Sliema- super promenade for joggers and walkers. A town with a lot of nightlife, many big hotels - if you are looking for peace and quiet, better go elsewhere. A great place for a party weekend.

Great city for study and entertainment! a lot of things for every taste. I felt very safe. Very friendly people - both locals and tourists and students. A little expensive in terms of prices when compared with Russia, but compared to the rest of Europe - more or less affordable.

Recreational Paceville can be quite tiring in the long run. St.Julian is more of a destination when it comes to school, but more interesting places are outside , even on the line of Spinola Bay and Valleta :)

I didn't like St. Julian. It is a loud, dirty, crowded city. In retrospect, I think I should have gone to Gozo. I wonder if I could have found out about "me fitting into the city" before ...

Public transport is a disaster. You can wait for ages for the bus to come. It spoiled our holiday since we are an older couple and were unable to climb and descend from hills on foot.

What school directors said about St. Julians

Mark Holland

In Malta, English is an official language. It is a fun and safe destination, a member of the EU (smallest!), has 164 years a British colony and is great value for money. A wonderful location to learn English under the sun!

Mark HollandDirector of Maltalingua School of English, lives in St. Julians since 2012
Keith Zammit

"Saint Julian's is a popular vacation spot on the coast of Malta. The small town successfully blends its fishing village charm with its tourist center. Latin architecture, such as Spinola Palace, built in 1688, and the Old Parish Church are popular historical sites. Divers will enjoy exploring shipwrecks via the Divewise Center. The renovated Paceville district, a former military haunt in the 1930s, is now the hub of Saint Julian's nightlife with an array of restaurants, bars, and clubs. It’s known for beaches like Balluta Bay, a rocky stretch with a promenade and restaurants. Bars and nightclubs line the streets of Paceville, an area south of St. George’s Bay Beach. Spinola Bay has traditional fishing boats, plus Spinola Palace, a baroque mansion with a carved clock centrepiece on its facade. "

Keith ZammitDirector of ACE English Malta, lives in St. Julians since 2012
Karl Sammut

Vibrant, lively, safe and secure, elegant, where most hotels are located, nightlife area with lots of restaurants and cafes. Very metropolitan.

Information about St. Julians

Why St. Julians? The small fishing village of St. Julians has grown into a popular resort with some of the best hotels, restaurants and cafes catering both for Maltese people and tourists. During the day, there are popular rocky beaches ad a small sandy beach offering clear blue water. During the evening, this is Malta's most popular nightlife area with over 400 entertainment outlets, a cinema and bowling complex and more.
What we like about St. Julians

There is never a dull moment in St Julian's and you can be sure of finding something to do during your free time. It is often described as the entertainment capital of Malta with pumping nightclubs and a large selection of casinos. There is a stunning promenade around the water's edge, stretching from one end to the other. Perfect for a nice relaxing stroll after a day of studying English. Situated midway down the island of Malta, St. Julian's is a great base to explore the island. There are excellent transport connections to nearby cities and to those further afield. Learn more about the culture at one of the many festivals and outside events held by the locals to celebrate this fantastic island. Why not join them and enjoy a dose of island life!

What we dislike about St. Julians

This tourist hub is generally towards the higher end of people’s budgets. This is especially true during the high season. Accommodation options can get snapped up quickly so it is wise to plan ahead for a good deal. There is one beach which can get very busy during the summer months. Do not fear, you can use public transport and reach the best beaches on the island, Mellieha or Golden Bay, in around 45 minutes.
