Hi there,
I'm looking to hear from anyone who has recently given birth at St James's Hospital.  What kind of care they received/their experience and costs if possible. 
Many thanks in advance :)

I give birth in the Sliema St James hospital in February 2012. The experience was excellent. Not a luxurious hospital but they have all you need for an uncomplicated birth. I had the best Midwife ever (Carmen) and it was my best delivery (it was my third kid). They try to do it as natural as you can but ready to provide extra help (c-section, epidural... ) if you need.
I had a natural birth and stay there 2 night. The cost was 1200 in total.
Hope this helps,
