4.0 out of 5 stars decent
I spent eight months in Malta, and ended up using this book in tandem with the Rough Guide version. Like all guide books, neither is 100% accurate, and that's life. Rough Guide is better for history, culture, art, etc. There will be much more info on any given sight there, but Lonely Planet has the practicalities a little more fleshed out. And as usual, the maps are...

3.0 out of 5 stars Solid but not outstanding
After looking over 5 or 6 Malta books, the two I took with me and used the most were the Rough Guide and the AAA Spiral Guide. This book by Lonely Planet is fine and thorough but comes in second to the other two. However, this book does have the most complete list of feast days (60 or more a year in Malata?).

4.0 out of 5 stars Lonely Planet Malta Review, September 16, 2001

This review is from: Lonely Planet Malta (Lonely Planet Travel Guides) (Paperback)
This is an excellent book...however there are a few places he missed. The pub in Mellieha that has FANtastic ribs and steak,
and the excellent French restaurant in Marsaskala. (The waiter here knows so much about the fresh fish you'd swear he'd caught them himself!)

If you're a scuba diver, Dive Med in Marsaskala gave us the BEST service!
