Big villa with a very nice private pool. The owner was very nice and had great communkcation. 10/10

The property is huge and has every comfort that you need!! Notwithstanding the size, it is really cleaned and well maintained. It has two kitchens with all the appliances, it has this amazing Swiss mind pool that was really curated. The rooms are nice and the beds and the sheets were clean. All the bathrooms (and there are fours) were deep cleaned and furnished with everything you need. They also have a gaming room with the football table game. AMAZING! The location is WOW, is right behind the newly built mercury tower where you can find a lot of shops, restaurants and bar. There is a supermarket nearby (really 1 minute walking) that is very big and has everything you need. There is a bus stop also in front of the supermarket and you can go whenever you want from there. I really recommend this property because either if you are a group of friend or a family this place is PERFECT for you. The zone in which the house is located is really quite and perfect for staying the day relaxing, however if you walk down the street there is “paceville” where there are a lot of pubs and bar.

We had an absolutely amazing stay in the fantastic villa.The villa is absolutely beautiful and we have never been to a more spotlessly clean place ,stunning, traditional yet newly upgraded with beautiful finishings. The kitchen fully equipped.The common area is so cozy ,the swimming pool was great,they have table games, playing cards and really anything you could need to have a relaxing evening or morning with your company!The location is great near to Mercury the newly opened mall,supermarkets & Paceville where you can find a lots of disco pubs to enjoy nightlife.The management was super friendly they made us feel welcomed and help us with everything .Loved staying here!!!

Brilliant villa, it was exactly what we were looking for. Everything was perfect! Clean, neat and a beautiful spacious villa. The place was exactly as advertised. The swimming pool is beautiful and there’s plenty of shade and sunny spots outside. The host was very responsive, they help us with everything. Check in and check out were very simple and seamless. The villa is nearby restaurants, markets and clubs, you will found here everything do you want. Would highly reccomend to groups or families. We would definetely return !

We had an excellent stay over New Year’s Eve, the hosts couldn’t have been more helpful. We were a group of 9, the Villa had lots of space and could easily sleep more people. The rooms are spacious, all have air conditioning and are modern. There are really good communal areas in the kitchen and in the basement where you can relax as a large family / group. The location is perfect, 2 minute walk to an amazing supermarket. Less than 5 minutes to a variety of bars and restaurants in St. Julian’s. Short 10 minute taxi to Valletta.

Joanne was a fabulous host. She checked in on us by text to make sure everything was ok and helped us by recommending trips out. The Farmhouse itself is absolutely beautiful, the attention to detail in the villa is amazing (boardgames in press for kids, every utensil in the kitchen you can think off, suncream, shampoos...the list goes on). Super clean, comfortable beds, the villa has everything and more. We were greeted by the most beautiful welcome pack, such a lovely touch. The beauty and amazing facilities of indoors spills outside also, the pool is clean, the sunloungers and surrounding areas are impeccable, there is a bathroom outside with towels, pool floats etc also. Hands down the BEST villa we have ever stayed in. Thank you Joanne 😊

This beautiful villa is simply amazing. My family and I stayed here for a few nights and we absolutely enjoyed every minute of it. The place is about 20 mins to Valleta so it might be worth renting a car to get around but you can also take a bus or Uber for a reasonable price. The airport is a stone throw away from the villa so it's about 8 min ride which was very close! There are excellent facilities like pool, washing machine, few bathrooms etc. The place is very spacious and the owner has gone above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Thank you so much Joanne! we hope to stay there again.

The house is great and the hosts did everything to make us feel welcome and at home. It has everything required for an extended stay with comfy beds and nice big yard. The location is quiet. It is easily accessible by car and just a few minutes drive from the airport.

Everything was amazing, the property is stunning and the hosts were so helpful. The owner even drove us into town himself on our first day. If you are looking to travel to Malta this is only place you should stay! We loved it!!!! The hosts are so wonderful and friendly too.

We had an amazing time at this beautiful farmhouse! Our hosts were exceptional, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay, thank you!

Great villa with all the facilities we could have wanted. Plenty of space both inside and by the pool and the villa is well equipped. A very welcome pay fridge stocked with drinks to save you running out is in the pool house and our host Mario was very helpful. He was in touch prior to our arrival to make sure everything was organised and very helpful during our stay- has loads of information about local sites and facilities. We can’t speak highly enough of him. The villa is located in a quite residential area but well served by taxis to take you anywhere on the island if you don’t have a car. A great place to stay – highly recommended.

The house was very comfortable and spacious, in a quiet area with easy parking on the street outside. There was effective air con in all reception rooms and bedrooms, essential in the July heat. The pool was a good size and well-maintained, with lots of other outdoor furniture to use and a BBQ. Naxxar was well-situated to get to other places of interest on Malta (and Bolt taxis came very quickly), and we found some interesting things to see very close to the house (Mosta church, Palazzo Parisio) as well as a very good restaurant (L'Orangerie). Our host was very welcoming and helpful, giving us lots of useful information at the start of our stay and also checking all was well with us during the week.

Our host Mario was very thorough, he sent us loads of great info in advance of our trip to help us get the most out of our holiday on Malta. When we arrived he told us about everything at the property and in the local area then offered to show us where the supermarkets and local sites of interest were which was very kind. We enjoyed our time as a family chilling by the pool and visiting the island.

The villa was well kept, with everything being clean and everything working as intended. We especially appreciated the ability to use the BBQ. The aircon was also very useful, with it being effective and available in each room. The pool was a major selling point for our group as well, and we really enjoyed getting to use it. The host was also very accommodating, and made our stay as move as possible. Thank you Mario for having us!

We had a fantastic time in Malta for holidays with a beautiful house with amazing facilities. The property is provided with AC everywhere, the kitchen is equiped perfectly and we had so much chill with the pool and the deckchairs. The location was also great, we had a music festival near and we could go easily to La Valetta. Finally the host was really responsive and the contact was always very smooth.

I loved the pool and roof top , The balcony so nice to have a drink in such peace , The apartment is very nicely done and fully equipped

The pool was amazing, great view and overall lovely facilities

The property was very spacious and reasonable for a holiday accommodation. The location although in a quite part of Malta was accessible and safe and we got about well with the public transport or taxi depending on what we fancied. The pool and surrounding area was well used by the kids and was popular for soaking up the sun.

The addition of the pool and associated facilities on the roof is a masterstroke. Made it easy to entertain the kids on days we were just chilling at the apartment.

The villa is on a super location only 10 to 15 minutes from the airport. Although Malta is highly populated, this villa is on a quiet place on the island with a wonderful view over the surroundings. The villa itself is very spacious and the garden with pool is amazing. I would everyone recommend this villa if you are staying in Malta.

Self-enclosed, private, lovely swimming pool, en-suites with each bedroom, lovely grounds.

The house was at a quiet neighbourhood granting full privacy. All the appliances worked very well. Nearby shops granted a comfortable supply of all sorts of food. Swimming pool was a great fun.

Lovely villa, would not hesitate to stay there again.

Beautiful villa. Fantastic location for exploring Malta. Close to the airport. Very clean. Good sized rooms. Excellent facilities.

The villa has a lot of space. A large group can stay. Theres a games room & kids play area. Outdoor and indoor pool as well as a jacuzzi. Terraces. Large tv. Kitchen equipped with everything like microwave, oven, hob and washing machine.

Size and space was lovely, facilties were great and clean. Pool was fantastic and all the rooms were very large and spacious. The host was always available to help with anything too.

We enjoyed a lot the villa. The play room with different games, a lot of rooms, swimming pool, terrace. Jane was amazing and attended all our needs. We would definitely repeat the experience if we go back to malta.

Had an awesome 5 night stay at this villa. Was here for a weekend trip with some of my friends as we got away from our study abroad location, Madrid. Location was walkable from the market and relatively close to many local spots. Host was incredibly helpful and responded incredibly quickly.

It was new, clean. I really like the location and the pool.

Large apartment, well equipped and a pool

The city center is close enough, but the apartment is quiet. We used buses and the bus connections of the city is perfect. Shared pool is also perfect. Rooms are huge, the hall is big enough for 4 person. there are two bathroom with showers for both rooms. Small shops, welbee, restaurant, pastizzeria are also close. Nightlife, lot of different restaurants is good for various nights. I recommending.

The property was nicely located and nice for a group of girls to enjoy a weekend away. We enjoyed the pool area and the facilities the property had. Thank you!

Location is nice, green and quiet, while next to the party dstrict and not far from bus stops. Аppartment is clean, new and spacious. All necessary household appliances are included in the apartment, if you can turn it on :) Since we lived on the 0 floor it was direct acces to the swimming pool with orange and lemon garden. Singing roosters in the morning and beautiful cats on the terrace as a nice bonus).

Stayed here for four nights on our mini honeymoon. The hotel benefits from a perfect location for exploring Valletta and the island. At the top of Republic Street and next to the bombed out Opera house it’s an easy place to find, and the bus station is only a 5 minute walk away. Set in a magnificent restored baroque building, public areas are finely decorated with many interesting artefacts and pictures (even the conference room!) They haven’t forgot about modern amenities though, the air con is a welcome chilled wall when you walk in from the heat of the Maltese summer. There’s a lift too, if you don’t want to use the well carpeted wide staircases. We had opted for a suite #23, and it didn’t disappoint. Set on 2 levels, a comfortable sitting room complete with vintage furniture and a full bathroom downstairs. Upstairs a large bedroom with a huge comfortable bed and another bigger full bathroom. Both bathrooms had rain style showers but no bath, premium toiletries, and the towels were big and very fluffy. There’s plenty of storage upstairs and down, and a tv in both rooms too.Two large carafes of mineral water were refilled daily, only thing missing was fresh milk in the fridge. Separate air con units upstairs and downstairs keep things cool. The roof top terrace is a fantastic place to watch the hustle and bustle of Republic Street down below. Breakfast was very good, decent range and well cooked. Service was impeccable and friendly. Highly recommended.

For our first wedding anniversary holiday to Malta we based ourselves at Domus Zamittello in Valletta, enticed by its central location and beautiful interior. The staff were all extremely helpful. During our stay it was the Maltese Victory Day bank holiday, and our hotelier told us the best places to go to watch the public celebrations, which was a welcome touch. During breakfast, the hotel manager, Moul, comes round to check everything is fine with your stay and learn a bit about you and what brings you to Valletta. After mentioning one morning that we'd come for our anniversary, we were pleasantly surprised later that afternoon to find that bottle of bubbles had been left in our room for us to enjoy, which we took up to the hotel terrace and sipped alone as we looked out over the square. They also booked restaurants for us over the phone (we'd tried to book via email in advance, but par for the course these days, you don't get any reply), which made our time in Valletta much smoother as we weren't striving to get into well known places such as Nenu's. Their own restaurant recommendations like The Old Bakery were also great. The hotel is situated just across the pedestrian bridge from the bus station, and since we were sightseeing every day it made going places easy. We had the perfect time at Domus Zamittello. I encourage anyone who wants to stay in Valletta to consider a room here.

First time in Malta, the staff made us feel right at home from the start. The hotel is elegant, beautifully decorated and palatial (used to be a palace, go figure). Can't say enough good things about Sandra who greeted us upon arrival and was a huge help throughout our 4-night stay, giving us good advice on sights to see and good restaurants in Valletta and ending our visit with making sure we got a taxi to the airport most efficiently. Moul, the hotel manager, also went out of his way to ensure we were well-informed about things to do and how to get to Mdina, Rabat and Gozo, even encouraging us to text him directly if we had any questions. All the staff we met were so nice and helpful, we could tell they were well-trained and seemed happy to be working there. Our room was lovely, the bathroom was great, had everything we needed. We were provided a complimentary bottle of wine upon arrival and a surprise complementary fruit plate in the middle of our stay. Chocolates were yummy with turn-down service each night, breakfast was included and very, very good. Great selections, fresh ingredients. The hotel's location is in the center of Valletta and very convenient to everything we wanted to do in this very walkable, beautiful, friendly and clean city. Excellent trip! Would not think of staying anywhere but Domus Zamittello on future trips to Malta.

I cannot say enough positive about Domus Zamitello Hotel. The historic hotel is located on Republic Street (aka the main drag), which gave us easy access to everything. Even though our windows overlooked the busy street, we never heard noise at night while trying to sleep. Our room was in the original palazzo but had been renovated to make it extremely comfortable. Air conditioning worked well, and our bed was very comfortable. We ate in the restaurant our first night since we arrived late and were met with great service and excellent food. The staff was the crowning glory of the hotel. Everyone was so helpful both before and during our stay. They helped us arrange tours, drivers, and dinners for our visit. In addition, one of the staff members went through the breakfast area daily asking everyone if they could be of service to suggest places to go or things to see. From the general manager, Moul Hajjar, to every staff member, especially Sandra and Maria, they were excited to share Malta and be of help to guests. (They even walked out of the hotel with us several times to make certain we knew which direction to go.) Housekeeping made certain our room was spotless, and the breakfast staff ensured that we had great meals and friendly service. If our travels find us back in Valletta, we would definitely choose to stay at the Domus Zamitello Hotel again.

From the moment we booked with Domus Zamitello they have not disappointed- regular contact and reminders via email about our upcoming visit. When we arrived we were met with a friendly and warm welcome, and then the lovely news that we had been upgraded to the best suite (The Zamitt Suite). The suite was beautiful and absolutely immaculate. We really couldn’t fault anything about our stay in this fabulous hotel. Each morning the hotel management made the time to speak to all the guests at breakfast (about their stay at the hotel so far, any plans for the day ahead, etc). All the staff were so friendly (hotel management, concierge, housekeeping and staff serving foods and drinks) and made the stay that much more special. There was a good selection of breakfast each morning that easily catered to everyone- and nothing seemed too much for the staff (all eager to be replenishing drinks) and in no rush to hurry guests along! The hotel is in the perfect location at the beginning of Republic Street and within walking distance of all the sites in Valletta. Despite the busy location the hotel was so peaceful and quiet inside. We even enjoyed a nice refreshing drink one afternoon on the rooftop terrace. I would heartily recommend Domus Zamitello and hope to return again myself in the near future. Thank you all for a fabulous first time visit to Malta!

Everything perfect! Nice views from the room and from the top level pool area. Very nice pools - both indoor and outdoor. Perfect breakfast - good selection and tasty

Staff were excellent, very helpfull, courteus, Food was excellent , facilities were excellent, pool area clean towels provided, bar and food service to pool was excellent

The location is ideal for travel in and ouf of Valletta, with the ferry terminal and bus stops with multiple bus routes into Valletta within a 10 minute walk. There are lots of bars, shops and food establishments along the promenade which we didnt make use of, but were reassured to know were an option if we desired. Reception staff were very friendly and had great information and tips about sights to see around Malta. Our room was very clean, comfortable and had lots of added amenities! The facilities were also great.. Made use of the gym, sauna and indoor pool during our stay, and all were very clean and relaxing. Breakfast could be busy around 9am, but the staff were very quick to turn over tables and do their best to accommodate everyone. The choice and quality of food was also excellent. I would definitely recommend staying at Verdi :)

- staff: very nice and friendly, well welcomed, tried to help in every situation - breakfast: standard european (sausages, bacon, bread, vegetables, eggs); some days they added traditional Maltese pastries. there is also fruit, cereals, coffee, tea, juices etc. - room: very cool spacious terrace in the Deluxe room (I was on the 10th floor), the room is clean and tidy. there is air conditioning that works both heating and cooling - location: very convenient, a couple of minutes from the bus stop, there are cafes and restaurants nearby - other facilities: there is also a swimming pool and a gym, but unfortunately I didn't have time to visit them. also i liked complementary bottles of water

Great location on the main promenade. 3 min walk to the bus stop and under 10min walk to the Valletta ferry. Hotel was well kept, the rooms were modern. Shower gel, moisturiser ect provided in room. Defo stretch to getting a sea view if you can, the views over the harbour are lovely. Breakfast was great, lots of choice and 1 day i had an early boat trip and they gave me a bag to go with fruit and pastries. Rooftop pool was lovely, small but didnt get too busy. Gym was well equipped

Great location in St Julian city center, close to all shops, bars, bus stops, rocky beaches etc and even in such location it is quiet at night. Black-out curtains help to sleep even better. Just in case you might have ear plugs to quarantee your good sleep, like I do. Kitchen had most of neccessary equipment. Lacked bigger cups but reception provided it (probably they are not very popular in Malta - receptionist gave us the only ones in hotel which she was using :)) Towels were changed everyday, showering liquids, toilet paper were refilled almost everyday. Small balcony for 2, where you can enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning. Big TV with Netflix, youtube, etc services. Good quality, big, comfortable bed. Bluetooth speaker in the bathroom was pretty cool feature too - just switch it on on the little control board outside bathroom. Huge THANK YOU to the girl receptionist (probably named Laura) for all the help and super exceptional service. She even helped a lot with non hotel related stuff like providing with local bus transportation apps for easy commute around Malta or checking if the travel agents in the city were not a scam. Thanks for all the great service again :) Some day when we return to Malta, we will definitely choose the same hotel and we recommend it to everyone going on vocation to Malta.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and I had a fantastic experience. The quality of services was excellent, and the owners were incredibly helpful and welcoming. They were always available to assist us at any hour, which made our stay even more comfortable and stress-free. As a lovely gesture, we were welcomed with wine on our first evening and even received some beer, which added a special touch to our stay. The building and the rooms had a modern, stylish design. The room was spotless, and the cleanliness was maintained throughout our visit. The cleaner came every day to check if we needed anything or if we wanted the room to be cleaned, ensuring that we had everything we needed. The room featured a fully equipped kitchen, which was a great convenience for preparing meals. Additionally, the hotel is located in a great area for young people, with plenty of nightlife options to explore, and very close to the bus station, which makes easily accessible and convenient for exploring the local attractions. It is also close to a few supermarkets/ grocery stores. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a pleasant and hospitable experience in a vibrant location. I will definitely be returning!

Our recent stay at The Balcony Hotel in Malta was nothing short of perfect. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the cleanliness and the modern facilities that the hotel offered. The room was a serene escape, especially considering we were in the heart of a lively party zone. It served as a quiet oasis, allowing us to relax after a day of exploring. Traveling with a small child, we appreciated the attention to detail. The owner, Luke, went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. He organized an incredible trip to Gozo and Comino, which was a highlight of our vacation. His hospitality truly made a difference. Every day, we returned to our apartment to find the kitchen impeccably cleaned, and even the dishes we might have overlooked were taken care of. The room and bathroom maintained their pristine condition throughout our stay, making us feel like we were in a brand-new space every time we returned. We had a wonderful time at The Balcony Hotel and will definitely be back. We wholeheartedly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and accommodating stay in Malta!

First of all, it was very clean, my girlfriend and I were very satisfied with how nice the maids were, we always washed our dishes before going out for a walk and one day we forgot and when we came back they were even washed. The towels and everything else we were asked every day if we wanted them to be replaced with new ones and it was always cleaned and everything was in place. About facilities, yes there's everything that is mentioned. It is a very safe place to stay regarding expensive jewelry, money, etc. I also want to thank you for the EARLY CHECK-IN, and for allowing us to leave our luggage after check-out so that we could walk around and enjoy our last moments in Malta. Also, thanks Luke for letting me surprise my girlfriend for her birthday. It was very good, it was very clean, the maids were very nice as well as the people at the reception. If you book this place, you won't regret it. Highly recommended. Thanks for everything again, see you next year, same room 701, please.

My first impression when we entered the room was how fresh and new everything was. I've been to countless apartment-hotels where the wear and tear is shown. Every single item in the kitchen felt brand new and clean, it had an oven, stove, kettle, toaster, anything you'd need, a great, full size fridge and freezer. Fantastic water pressure (that's not always a guarantee in Malta) and even Bluetooth speakers in the bathroom. The owner as well as well as the staff were very friendly, helpful and efficient. The location is fantastic. You have convenience stores, coffee places, a bus stop (where most buses stops) just a few steps from the door, and just a few minutes to the bay where you have all the restaurants, cafes and the gorgeous scenery. It is a very safe neighborhood as well. I will definitely book this again when we come back and have honestly already recommended it to a few friends that are regularly visiting Malta.

The best hotel we have stayed at in the Mediterranean. From the general manager Robyn, down to hotel services, hospitality, the restaurant staff, pool bar, spa and housekeeping staff, nothing was too much trouble. We went to Malta for our 31st wedding anniversary and picked the hotel purely on previous reviews. They didn't lie. The impression was of everyone at the hotel being committed to excellent customer service. Ideally located within 400 metres of the capital city Valetta, it is quiet with it's own pretty gardens and private pool. There is also an excellent spa and indoor pool. Luxuriously comfortable well appointed rooms (pay a little extra to get a room with a view over Valetta harbour) - they even top up your mini-bar for free each day. The hotel is also convenient for Valetta transport hub (explore Malta by bus - a single journey is 2 euro to anywhere on the island - it's great fun). We had a wonderful time and will definitely be going back.

The Phoenicia is exceptional. Ideally located right by the city gates into Valletta - easily walkable to local restaurants, bars, and cultural attractions - and 2 minutes walk from the main bus terminal, with routes across the island including to the airport, Mdina and other cities. Bright, comfortable room - cleaned twice a day - with all expected amenities and a small balcony with beautiful views overlooking the city and harbour. The hotel features two swimming pools including a stunning infinity pool overlooking the harbour and an indoor pool in the spa, which also holds saunas, a steam room, gym and massage facilities (access to everything is included, although you pay seperately for individual massage treatments). The outdoor pool also has its own restaurant attached which serves poolside food and drink all day. The hotel includes an excellent main restaurant, with top quality and varied breakfasts and evening meals. Multiple comfortable lounges and bars too. Staff were - without exception - polite, approachable and friendly, and met any request we had. In fact they often went out of their way to add unexpected personal touches for our stay, which was greatly appreciated. The concierge service was really helpful too, answering any questions and arranging a sailing trip for us as well. The hotel exceeded all our expectations, and we'd go back in a heartbeat!

100% would stay again! the location was the best as it's so close to central Valetta... The staff were so good, and matched the high quality perception of the hotel when you walk in. Room service staff were great too! Special shout out to Enya who walked us through wedding planning. the pool area is the man of the match! so chilled, clean and the views by the pool are exceptional. the pool staff are also great, they operate with a fine line between checking in too much and not enough so you are able to not be disturbed but t the same get a drink when needed.

Amazing outdoor pool next to the fortress wall of Valletta!! Indoor spa & pool! Didn’t discover these until after visiting all the sights but be sure to experience from day one. Service was impeccable. Prosecco breakfast, try the local specialities, carved ham, pickled eggs, herbs with cheese, dates, carob, capers... Turn down service, cold drinks in waiting after hot days in your mini bar. Luxurious toiletries, Aqua line. Nits: hubby complained about too many and too large pillows ;). Pool bar could use glasses vs plastic. Our shower leaked. Some of furnishings throughout the hotel needs updating, Eg wicker, carpets, and the like.

This was our second stay at The Phoenicia Hotel. As before, everything was perfect. From the ever friendly staff (breakfast, poolside bar, spa, domestic and turn-down team) to the comfort of the room and the view over the yacht harbour. The hotel provides a great breakfast in the restaurant that sets you up for the day and has good bar facilities in the evening. The hotel infinity pool / bar is set in it's own gardens and overlooks the harbour. We needed it as the temperature was 35 degrees. We also treated ourselves to a hotel spa massage and treatment which was great. The hotel is in an excellent location 300 metres outside Valetta city walls. Rather than use the hotel restaurant we chose to eat in the evening in the city (lots of restaurants - seafood / Italian etc). Whilst we were there, the city had a beer and music festival - very good entertainment. The hotel is also very near the transport hub and we took a hop-on / hop off bus tour of the south of the island - good value and a good way to see the essentials - as well as day trips to the resort of Sliema (shopping) and an escorted tour of the "3 cities" (the 3 strongholds that the Knights of The Order of St John built before Valetta) - again good value with a really lovely and informative guide. All in all The Phoenicia is exceptional and we hope to return very soon.

The property is lovely, it is a beautiful old building with high ceilings and lots of character. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There were two main areas that have impacted our rating of the hotel. The first is the arrangements for using the pool at the owners other venue, Xara Lodge. The pool is not always available as the venue is used for events such as weddings and therefore was closed on two full days and closed early on another two days during our stay and we also had to request to be driven to and from the pool which felt a bit uncomfortable. Therefore I would suggest this is not the hotel for you if you like to have access to a pool. We also found the breakfast arrangements chaotic and frustrating. There are the options of a continental breakfast or cooked breakfast, and all food has to be ordered through table service. We found staff often got our order wrong or that we had to be very specific about the exact items we wanted or we were served toast without butter etc and there were inconsistencies day to day in how things worked. Also the cooked breakfast menu charges per item but there were no prices for the drinks and this turned out to be very expensive for what we were served.

Excellent from start to finish - an amazing boutique hotel experience in a special place. We had room number 8 and it was fantastic with a small sitting room that had a view of the courtyard and great views off the side of the Medina. Staff were wonderful - attentive and caring without being overbearing. Breakfast was great on the alfresco area at the top of the building. The pool is located at the other property - staff will drive you there on request and pick you up when you’re ready to leave. The pool is a beautiful space with plenty of deck chairs, supplied pool towels and there is a bar for drinks.

I chose this hotel as I wanted to stay somewhere small and not in the large coastal resorts. This hotel couldn’t have been more perfect, such a beautiful hotel in a great location, easy to travel out to all the main Maltese attractions, but also in the heart of one of them in Mdina. The staff were all so helpful and friendly, the hotel owner also came and introduced himself and asked how we were enjoying our stay. The pool is not on site, but the hotel staff drop you off and pick you up anytime from the Xara Lodge pool which is only a 5min drive, and here you are greeted with fresh lemonade and food and bar are also available. The hotel is a real palace and we were treated like royalty! I would return to Malta, but only if I could stay here.

Had a brilliant poolside experience day at the Xara Lodge today. From the moment we arrived until we left the team were very attentive and friendly. A particular thank you must go to Noor, always smiling and always on hand to keep us supplied with food and drinks. The lunchtime meal was delicious, and the whole day was excellent value for money. Our only initial thought was that the fast club dance music played was inappropriate for the calm relaxed atmosphere we had come for. Noor soon fixed that too and the calm chilled Ibiza playlist selected was more in keeping. Thank you Noor and the team for making this a very special and memorable day for us!

We had a wonderful two night stay at the Xara Palace. We were offered an upgrade (paid for) the the Presidential Suite on arrival - it was 100% worth it. The space was fabulous, wonderful bathroom and lounge area. The hotel has a private, secluded feel. The pool (5mins drive) is extremely relaxing, wonderful service from Noor and Izor who drove us there each day. Would recommend a drink on the terrace if possible, the champagne trolley is fantastic. We ate in the Trattoria (definitely recommend) and explore local restaurants in Rabat too. Will definitely be back.

The hotel is well located, there’s a long promenade outside the door for those who want to stretch the legs. The view from the pool deck over the small bay with it’s boats and blue water is lovely. There are bus stops just outside the hotel. The staff are lovely, they do a great job and make it look easy! The buffet breakfast provided plenty of choice. Our room was very clean, shower great. The pool deck was a nice place to relax.

This was my third stay at Hotel Juliani and it was as great as before. There is a lovely vibe in this unique hotel and the staff is nice and super helpful. The location of the hotel is good and public transportation is easily accessible. The cafe and restaurant serve delicious food. My friend and I enjoyed the rooftop pool area. Later in the evening we listened to live music and had drinks there while admiring a beautiful view over the bay. We also visited the spa downstairs for a pedi and massage - just heaven! The room was lovely, quiet, clean with a wonderful view over the little harbour. I used the fitness room and there was everything I needed for my workout. We were again happy with our stay at Hotel Juliani and we will surely be back soon. 😃Anne H-K

It was our first stay at Hotel Juliani and certainly wont be the last! The location is perfect, you're right in the thick of it and within easy reach of lots of great restaurants, bars and more. The breakfast was very well catered for. The rooftop area with the pool, seating and bar was an extra bonus - especially with happy hour! The room was perfect, a lot larger than I was expecting. Very comfortable, clean, well equipped and our room had a lovely balcony with a sea view. The staff were very friendly and helpful, especially when it came to organising taxis for us. If you stay at the Hotel Juliani - make sure you visit Zest, the asian-fusion restaurant. It was one of the best meals we've ever had, amazing decor and attention to detail!

My friend and I really enjoyed our stay here the staff were so friendly and welcoming. This continued throughout our stay, they were eager to help with anything we needed. The hotel itself is in a great spot there were a few bus stops very close by less than 1 minute walk to get us around the island. There were also a number of restaurants nearby. The roof of the hotel with pool was lovely and I went up a few mornings to watch the sunrise which was great. I didn't try the restaurant, breakfast or room service at the hotel but what I saw in passing looked good. I would definitely recommend this hotel and Malta in fact I am considering going back after having such a positive trip.

A stylish hotel full of hospitality – highly recommended! What I loved: ・Exceptionally hospitable and friendly staff ・A varied breakfast with fresh fruit, salmon, and more ・A bus stop right in front of the hotel, with easy access to Valletta and other areas ・Clean and comfortable rooms ・Rooftop pool and terrace with a stunning view of Spinola Bay When my airport bus was delayed, I rushed to the hotel in a panic and asked for help. Despite my anxiety, a staff member named Ojo responded quickly and appropriately, arranging a taxi for me and ensuring I made it to the airport on time. I highly recommend asking the hotel to arrange airport transfers, and for anyone visiting Malta, I strongly recommend staying at this hotel!

The swim up pool bar on the rooftop was a nice surprise. Had the best view. The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Great location to walk to many different things. So happy with our stay

Where to start. The reception staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. I arrived early and they arranged for my room to be cleaned sooner, even calling me when it was ready. The room was spacious, clean and the bed ever so comfortable. The bathroom was also big with a lovely shower. The balcony was a decent size, although I didn't spend much time on it as it overlooked a side road. The initial stock of the mini-fridge was included in the price, which was a welcomed surprise. The swimming pool area was amazing. I never had a problem getting a sun lounger, and although shade could be a premium, even then I was okay. It was usually busy but never felt crowded. The infinite pool was lovely and had a walk up bar. It is not deep (about 1.3m) nor is it not-heated, which was perfect for me but possibly not the best swimming pool for families with children. The food served at the pool side bar was decent and the area doubled up as a roof-top bar at night from 8pm with live music a few days a week. The inside bar had a pool table and table-football as well as number of TVs showing sport.

The entire hotel is very clean. The room we got was very comfortable and big - we didn't expect to be that big compared with other 4-star hotels where we previously had reservations. The indoor pool very clean, and water was unexpectedly warm. I felt so good and relaxed after spending about an hour in the pool. The outdoor pool is also very clean and bigger than the indoor one. Unfortunately, the weather was not warm enough to use the outdoor pool. The staff is friendly and polite, we even got a taxi reserved (not free) to arrive at the hotel from the airport; this way we were helped to avoid any stress in finding/booking a cab on our own. The breakfast was very diverse, a lot of food, fruits, deserts, different types of juice, and ...COFFEE 😁 ! We checked in quite late because of the delayed flight, but it was no issue with that. Thanks to their 24-hour reception services, you can check in at any time.

I had a really nice and big room with a Shower accessible for wheelchairs, which was amazing as I am a really big guy and need a lot of space. This shower amd bathroom was amazing. The Room was soo big I had 2 balconies and a double bed. They also offer you one time the drinks in the fridge. And you have nice choices from red wine to beer and soft drinks. Also very close to the elevator amd so I could go easily to reception or swimming pool. The swimming pool with the bar on the rooftop is amazing. Also the bar has Poolbillard amd Babyfoot. Prices are ok.

The hotel was lovely, anything you asked about was done really quickly, ie change of pillows, requesting an iron and ironing board, breakfast was really good Depak was particularly good, the only fault with the hotel was the indoor pool, it was a spa pool lovely and warm, but there was no support rail, I'm unsteady on my feet, so I couldn't use the pool, unless one of my family were with me

I had a truly wonderful experience at Hyatt. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful – they went above and beyond to assist me with all my requests, always with a smile. Their hospitality made me feel truly welcome. The breakfast was absolutely fantastic – I found everything I could possibly want. At the bar, they even made me an iced coffee just the way I like it, which was a lovely personal touch. The pools were clean and well-maintained. I do wish the rooftop pool stayed open 24/7, but thankfully, there was always the alternative of the lower pool, which was also great. Everything was just perfect – from the service to the amenities. The location is also ideal for young couples – there are plenty of restaurants, entertainment options, and clubs nearby. However, if you prefer something quieter, I would recommend taking a short 7-minute bus ride to Sliema or Valletta. Overall, a fantastic stay. I would definitely come back!

Our staying was great from start to finish. We spent 5 days at the hotel and we were delighted with all amenities. The modern room, relaxing indoor pool and jacuzzi (open 24 hours), the chill outdoor pool and the lovely restaurant made our staying even more enjoyable. Great food and drinks offer at the hotel! All staff were incredibly helpfull delivering a high standard and professionalism. The team at the reception was welcoming and always ready to answer any questions and give reccomendations. The team at the restaurant did an amazing job from the early morning until late night always with a smile and easy to chat. Same goes to the reamaining staff that made sure the place was kept spotless. The hotel is 25 minutes from the airport with easy access to nearby cities such as Valetta and Sliema (both 10 minutes away by taxi). It is definitely worth it stayin at the modern Hyatt Centric Malta and jump on the taxi for a day walk around the near towns. Absolutely brilliant! We are definitely coming back in the future.

Schöne Unterkunft mit stilvoller Einrichtung und 5-Sterne Comfort. Wir reisten mit 2 Kindern und buchten eine Suite- empfehlenswert! Das Frühstück war außergewöhnlich gut, jedoch bei Schlechtwetter innen unzureichend Sitzplätze zur Verfügung stehen und man mit einer Wartezeit von etwa 10 Minuten warten muss. Das Personal ist aber äußerst kompetent und freundlich! Das Gym war mit modernen Geräten ausgestattet und der Indoor- wie der Outdoor Pool geheizt. Es steht eine Sauna bereit, die jedoch nicht meinen Ansprüchen entspricht. Leider saugt sich das Holz mit Poolwasser voll. Uns hat es insgesamt sehr gut gefallen und wir würden wieder kommen. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis hat gestimmt.

Exceptional and luxurious hotel situated in the heart of the picturesque St Julian’s. This hotel has the wow factor: rooftop pool with stunning views, bottom floor indoor pool with spa and gym, breakfast restaurant with excellent variety of dishes and fresh produce, and a chic hotel lobby where you are guaranteed a friendly welcome by the amazing front desk team. Special thanks to John Saldanha, Assistant Front Office Manager,and Thea for making our visit so memorable; you are not only excellent ambassadors for the hotel, you are truly beautiful human beings! I will be back!

Wonderful room, super comfy bed, all the mod cons and facilities you could wish for (big rainfall shower, coffee machine, mini fridge, iron and ironing board, hairdryer) - we loved our stay. The rooftop pool was gorgeous and bonus that the hotel has an indoor pool and spa/gym facilities. Everything was super clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful, bringing extra water and coffee when we asked. Location was excellent too, right near a couple of supermarkets and lots of bars and restaurants.

Everything was fab.we meet a wonderful lady at reception called Elizabeth she was wonderful and helped us with all our queries including setting us up with the BOLT taxi service app. This hotel is right beside the bus station and if you need gluten free and vegan your also in luck Cafe around the corner Room was lovely ,clean,and tidy and housekeeper great too.Not forgetting the beautiful roof top pool with lift all the way up to pool so get there it's just out of this world Cecilia from Wexford Ireland.

Superb breakfasts, ones of the best I ever had. Super nice and friendly staff. Location is perfect, you can get everywhere - bus station is like 50 meters away. A lot of supermarkets, restaurants nearby, even 24/7. In November pool on the roof was still in use because of hot weather, nice view from there, and it was quite clean for an outside pool. Comfy big bed and pillows, a lot of lights, TV with installed Netflix/Amazon where you just have to enter your account or just watch usual TV programs. Nice balcony with table and chairs. Kitchenware was more than enough to cook and eat, everything you need is there. Coffee machine, teapot, fridge, stove, plates, pots - well, everything. Spacious bathroom with shower with good waterflow (I know it can be a problem in Malta, but here it was really good), a lot of towels provided including beach towel. In corridors a lot of bookshelves where you can take a book in almost every language and read something on the beach during your stay.

A lovely clean apartment, central to local bars & restaurant and the rocky beach. Pool area nice but too quiet for us, no music so would suit guests who prefer quieter atmosphere. No pool bar which we personally missed though they were setting up the “honesty bar” for summer season. Offer was made to bring us drinks from reception. Owner (Elizabeth) was very helpful & friendly.

Location was great, right next to bus station and short walk to the sea. Seaview also from my room and rooftop pool area. Pool area was comfy. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Waste sorting bins in kitchen.

We chose it because it was an apartment hotel - it was very well kitted out. The bedroom and bathroom were a great size and to have a second space sitting room kitchen diner was perfect. It was our first time in Malta the hotel was extremely close to the bus station so getting around was a doddle. We could see the sea from our room and the view from the roof top pool was wonderful. The sound insulation was excellent Malta is a busy place and we weren’t disturbed. There is a good breakfast menu available. The staff were extremely helpful There was extensive lounge type seating if you wanted it. We liked the decor

>> Location – A great compromise between being close to Valletta and the airport, the lively atmosphere of St. Julian’s, and trips to the northern part of the island. If you’re relying on public transport, you won’t have trouble getting on buses here (unlike towns north of St. Julian’s, where this can be an issue). At the same time, this is a quieter street, but within a 5-minute walk you’re right in the center of the action. >> Rooftop pool – A very well-designed terrace with a nice view. Definitely worth using the pool and sunbeds. >> Amenities – A Nespresso machine with capsules (you can get more at reception), bathrobes, and slippers. Pool towels are available both on the rooftop and in the basement area. >> Helpful reception – We needed to change rooms, but the staff handled it without any problems – more info below. >> Breakfast – Some might say the selection was small, but I’d describe it as well thought-out. Even during a longer stay, you can have something different every day. So, definitely a plus.

Excellent breakfast, vast array of food, my only gripe was there was no avocado! A small thing but it does make a difference. Great location, near to buses, supermarkets, a walk to a small beach, and the busy and vibrant St Julians, but still quiet in terms of where we were. The complementary drinks and snacks were a fabulous touch, but please could you make it clear they are complementary, we didn't realise so we didn't touch them! Service was impeccable from all staff members from breakfast to reception. Pools were a good temperature, and the rooftop pool had the most stunning views and was never busy. We were also upgraded on arrival which just made our holiday even better.

A LOTS OF CHARMING IN THIS HOTEL Ac Hotel St. Julians - Island of Malta -Spacious and Incredible .gorgeous and attractive place plenty of sun deck umbrelka. Beautiful pool. Outdoor. Indoor pool.. with a beautiful spot bay around at Island of Malta..according the rooms large pretty clean and well design comportable to stay. Very relaxing to skeep at one night ..and well kept it..foods super descent a lot of quality of dish.. AC Hotel St. Julians is a super nice Property . Luxurious and excellent welcoming hotel. Hospitalty .peaceful calming beautful surroundings I love the place..great place. Great service. Great staff is very helpful.. Cleanliness / 5 Location / 5 Service / 5 Value / 5 Sleep / 5 Rooms / 5

This has a lot for a 4-star hotel. It is located in Paceville, the entertainment centre of Malta, but also a 5 minute cab away from the centre of St Julians. The room is large and well equipped with a large bed and coffee machine. Shower small but ok. The hotel has an external warmed pool and an indoor pool too. Free inside parking. Restaurant and breakfast are excellent. But most important are the well trained staff who help in every way and are very welcoming.

Very new, modern, clean hotel with very friendly personal, very good breakfast and dinner, fantastic panoramic view in restaurant with big therace. The best thing during winter- indoor pool!!! Pool on the roof very nice, but more linked to weather conditions. Lovely to have coffe, tee, water in the room and ice machine in coridor. Always nice to come back!

We had a lovely stay at this hotel. Its location is fantastic for exploring Valletta. The rooftop pool (which we found of a sufficient size for a good swim up/down) and restaurant are both lovely, with the most amazing views. The room was very comfortable. We were located on the 6th floor (room with balcony/lovely views). We totally accept any noise from bars nearby due to this hotel's location. However, around 3.00 am every morning we were roused from our sleep from the noise of furniture being moved around, floor scrubbers, vacuum cleaners etc etc - I am guessing from the cleaners on the 7th floor (pool/restaurant area) re-arranging the furniture/cleaning for the breakfast setting in the morning. Just one of the downsides from purchasing an expensive room on the 6th!

The rooms were spacious, the beds were comfortable, and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing despite being in the middle of a busy city. The rooftop was a highlight for us. In Valletta in can be hard to find hotels with a pool, so having the space to relax and cool down was perfect. While the subbed area by the pool was slightly limited, there’s also a roof deck with extra loungers and comfy sofas. It was much quieter up there and had a nice breeze, though to access the pool you have to walk through the restaurant. The location was ideal- right in the centre of Valletta, surrounded by lovely restaurants and close to buses and taxis to explore the island more. The hotel is located on a lively party street with music, which can be noisy outside, but you’d never know from the rooms. The staff were brilliant throughout our stay- everyone from reception to rooftop to housekeeping was friendly and helpful. The rooftop pool closes at 7pm, but they offer a midnight swim between 12-1am. We absolutely loved swimming at night and even saw fireworks from the pool, which was really special. Breakfast wasn’t included in our stay, but we did receive a complimentary breakfast one morning. The selection wasn’t huge, but had everything you’d typically want for breakfast.

This Hotel is perfectly located for bars and restaurants off of Republic Street. The breakfast is good, I can’t say about lunch or dinner as we ate out every day. The bedrooms are clean and have everything you need, but the lighting is very poor and makes the room dark. The only issue we had was the noise in the evening as many bars have live music every night, if you like an early night forget it, also the mornings are noisy as deliveries are being made. Also the pool and pool area is not big enough to cater for everyone to sunbathe and you also have to walk through the dining area to get to the pool. Saying all that we loved staying here, the staff are lovely and very helpful.

Why is the pool so cold. Don’t advertise you have a pool if you’re not prepared to properly heat it. Most hotels care about their guests and heat the pool to an acceptable temperature. At this time of year that would be at least 90. Staff just claim to have no control on heater.

Just back from a really nice long bank holiday stay at the Embassy Valletta. Some prior reviews are a bit critical of the staff but that wasn't our experience at all: nothing but a warm welcome and nice service throughout. Aleksander at the front desk was especially great: we arrived super early and he sent us straight to the pool with complimentary cocktails and came up personally to give us our room key when ready, rather than us just having to check back in as is typically the case. He also gave some great dinner recommendations. The hotel is basically the highest point in Valletta, so if you like a view (and we do), it's a great option as it's 360 degrees on the top sundeck. Our room had basically the view in the picture, which was perfect. The hotel location was very easy walking distance for us to get to scuba diving on Sliema, historical walking tour from the city gates, fast boat to Gozo. On balance: location is great, views wonderful, staff really nice, rooftop area lovely (recommend the very top, above the pool level), and local bars/restaurants good. The breakfast buffet is just 'ok'. We had great dinners at Harbour Club, Porticello, and Aki. The little gin & pintxos (Basque tapas) bar just down the alley to the left upon existing is very good.

We liked everything about our stay in this hotel- straight from the entrance in the lobby we felt warmly welcomed and well-serviced instantly. We celebrated our anniversary as well as obe of our birthdays during our stay and were surprised with acts of kindness and appreciation (room upgrade, swan towels on bed, champagne and cake upon arrival). The rooms are comfortable, spacious and very clean. The views are stunning and area around the hotel is very vivid with plenty of restaurants and shops. We would love to highlight the extraordinary service engagement and professionslism of the staff, especially from Franklin, Laxmi, Rajed (?, hotel bar) and the concierge. Also, what was extraordinary from our point of view is the 24/7 pool access, which no other hotel ever offered so far. All in all, we can only recommend this hotel by our hearts!

Staff at the Hyatt Regency are welcoming and attentive in every aspect. Nothing was too much trouble. They never failed to make us smile whether that was when sharing a lift ride, delivering room service or making cocktails around the pool. Perfect spa break. The spa treatment experience is exceptional. We booked several times on our visit. The staff are excellent and Claudia made us feel relaxed and revitalised. The rooftop pool and bar has a happy hour and very good value cocktails, DJ's and live music and when there were functions on the roof in the evening, the courtyard downstairs provided the perfect space to relax. The Seed restaurant Breakfast was delicious. Snacks at the Pool Bar hit the spot. All food was fresh and beautifully presented. Our room was clean and we were surprised with a huge TV. There was a problem with the shower leaking into the bathroom, but that was rectified the same day. Location is next to shopping centre, short walk to some restaurants etc.

We had a fantastic stay at Hyatt Regency Malta. The hotel itself is lovely, with a great location close to everything. Our room was very clean and comfortable, and we really enjoyed the nice view. The service throughout the hotel was excellent, and the facilities were top-notch. The pool area was a highlight for us — the rooftop pool was clean and had a great atmosphere. The pool staff were extremely nice and helpful, which made the experience even better. The food in the café was also very good, and we were pleased with the quality and variety. A very special thank you to Zainul Aabedeen, the night manager, who provided outstanding service. He was amazing — always so helpful, friendly, and always smiling. His warm and welcoming attitude truly made our stay memorable. We can’t recommend this hotel enough and already want to go back!

Overall I was extremely pleased with my stay at The Hyatt Regency Malta which I visited on my own for 6 nights following a recent bereavement. The public areas, bars, restaurants and rooftop pool are all very stylish and beautiful. My room was spacious and beautifully equipped, quiet and very comfortable. The bathroom (large shower no bath) was well equipped. I spent most of my day at the rooftop pool. It was busy but there was always sun beds and towels available. Service at the adjoining GIN-gets bar was excellent and the 2 for 1 cocktails from 5.00pm were really good. The breakfast buffet was adequate but not as good as other hotels I have visited. For example the fresh fruit offering was limited (no berries which I would expect in June) and the hot items from the menu (Eggs Benedict, eggs royale, omelette or egg white omelette) were not that nice, I had the Eggs Benedictine morning and the portion was small, the bacon poor quality and the sauce pretty ordinary. When I had the omelette it was dry and over-cooked. The staff were all fantastic. Nothing too much trouble and very friendly. The surrounding area of St George’s Bay is very busy with shopping centres, large bars, fast food takeaways, restaurants and a busy little beach. I wouldn’t go back to this area as it is too busy and quite dirty, but I was very glad I chose The Hyatt Regency as it was a real oasis amongst such a busy, noisy area.

Review for Hyatt Regency Malta + Halal food (if applicable to you) Hotel Hyatt - fantastic hotel, location and the amazing staff, especially the front house reception team. If you are considering a holiday, i would highly recommend Hyatt Regency Malta. If you are a frequent traveller, I'm sure you know the Hyatt brand offer luxury high end 5 star hotels and this is one of them. Location Opposite the bay street shopping centre! We didn't go for the bars or night life ilbut if you are into drinking, this is also a great location for you. The location was perfect for us as it had plenty of food options. Halal KFC, halal kebab factory, Halal burgers at Hugo burgers and pizza hut. When you are travelling with children, unfortunately you need a bit of western food to keep them happy. Parking a hired vehicle Free parking in the bay street car park! This was perfect for us as we hired a car from Eurocars. I went prepared with a dash cam and downloaded the malta maps on my tomtom device Key points from me 24hr indoor pool 24hr gym 9 till 9 steam room and ice room Roof top pool and bar Hotel room Luxury, comfortable beds and a spotless bathroom with a rain shower Breakfast- outstanding and a wide variety so you will not be disappointed. They also have halal sausages and halal turkey ham Mouthwatering omelets and poached eggs Once again, the hotel made our holiday enjoyable. I will 100% return here again for my future travels.

staff are really friendly , Nithain Anthony was our regular room cleaner , he always left the room looking neat and tidy and the beds were immaculately made. Staff in general including nithain were always eager to help and do what they could to make your stay comfortable. Beds were comfortable The hotel itself was nice 11th floor was lovely but when your with family and friends it’s not some where u can really stay. It also started to get very busy towards the end of our stay. Constructive feedback Air con not great turned off if the patio door was open slightly however thankfully our room stayed relatively cool. Salt water pool was not ideal for our friends little children and my children were often at the pool above so our family and friends were rarely together. There should be a snack bar available for all inclusive guests all day by the pools for chips and hot dogs etc More entertainment for evenings, perhaps pool tables , live music

Stylish hotel, which was perfect for some winter sun during half term. Water slides were still open at the end of October / first weekend of November which was a huge benefit and greatly enjoyed. Abdul by the pool was wonderful and so welcoming, and great at keeping all the kids safe. The hotel is spotlessly clean throughout, and the room was very well appointed. The staff were all really helpful. We also used the kids club once which had a packed schedule of Halloween themed events. We enjoyed all the different bars, cafes and restaurants onsite. We were on Bed and Breakfast but paid for the buffet a few times which worked out well and includes wine; it’s probably better value to book half board in advance. Breakfast a bit repetitive but overall good. St Paul’s is well located for exploring other areas of the island - Ghjan Tuffieha beach was lovely, with lunch at the Singita and only 10 Eur in a Bolt. A few small things would make a difference - the kids club isn’t well signposted and it wasn’t obvious you had to book activities. The table tennis would be better if the rackets were kept by the pool rather than having to fetch from the kids club (and do let your staff know, as one pool towel guy didn’t even know there was a table, let alone how to get rackets!). But small details in what was overall a really wonderful stay at a hotel I’d thoroughly recommend.

We thought this was a good quality hotel with staff that were very keen to make sure we were happy. Had a deluxe partial sea view room on 7th floor. Lovely view, great bathroom and beds were comfortable. Housekeeping kept our room spotlessly clean and made sure we had everything we needed - special thanks to Nithan Antony and team for looking after us. He kept our towels, teas and coffees topped up everyday. Plus some lovely towel art! We were on all inclusive option. The buffet food was very good. This also included two a la carte restaurant meals, worth a visit. Both pools are very busy but we always found a space at the main pool - the beds at the adults pool were reserved from early in the morning for the day…. Buses run all round the island from just outside the hotel. All staff were super friendly and helpful and we would love to come here again.

I really enjoyed staying here with my family. The room was amazing with a wonderful sea view. We did bed and breakfast (which, to be honest, is not that bad), but at least we get to dine at different places. The Medusa Bar was okay, and the top-floor (adults only) pool was excellent. The hot tub was better on the top floor than the one in the indoor pool. The only small thing I would like the hotel to improve is the activities it offers. I was so excited for the line dancing on Wednesday, 29th October 2025, but I went to the main pool and only saw people swimming. Could you please share an updated activities timetable at the hotel? The food was good for breakfast, and there were plenty of restaurants to choose from. I would recommend visiting during half term for 4 days. Would love to go back.

It was a pleasant and wonderful experience. We had really warm welcome from Filsa and Shahid (front desk) when we arrived. They looked after us, our luggage and our room. The room was clean ,comfortable and refreshed every day. Amazing view from our balcony.Comfy bed, lovely shower.The Air conditioner was great even at night when we had to close the balcony door.(Some people cannot behave and control themselves even the middle of the night they were really noisy and kept shouting on the street.) Loved the food in Deck&Keel for breakfast. Lots of choice. Heated indoor pool and lovely outdoor pool with water slides. Pool towels are available for free. Perfect location ,the bus stop outside in front of the Hotel. Just few more words about excellent experience of support we had about bed and airport transfer request. quick response, and everything was on time. Thank You!

I stayed here a week and it was perfect choice. Got the bus pass and traveled all over the Island easily. The TD 13 bus is your friend, so learn it well. Very new, very clean, very well designed, has a wow cool factor and I'm an engineer and not impressed much, very high tech room, everything including electric curtains controlled by a central control. Big room for Europe, great bathroom. Helpful staff. The restaurant is run by Fabio and his wife, who are wonderful. Had my best meal of a one month trip in Europe including two Michelin star restaurants. A fantastic mixture of fish, shellfish, olives in a perfect sauce. Wow. If you ask kindly, he might make it for you too. :-). Not sure it was on menu. The best restaurants are run by real people that understand good food and enjoy sharing it with others. Fabio does.

Everything was good with this property. This is a relatively new property. Beside all the amneties being as expected, the interaction with the stuff was great. First, even if not requested, they upgraded us for free to a 3 bed room as we had or kid with us. Also, they were super flexible and well equiped (electronic keys) for a very late checkin and super early checkout. The locations is like 1 km from Paceville & Saint Julians. At least for us this neighborhood was perfect as it's less busy, pretty authentic (small pastizzeria and a few cafes nearby) and, at least around the new year period it was free and easy parking everyday. The place is ideal if you have a car, not sure about other use cases. Thanks to the hosts for a good stay and will be back!

The hotel is brand new, and the room is designed in a very modern style, featuring the latest technology. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom was simply stunning, with white marble and a large window that filled the space with natural light.☀️ The terrace was equally impressive, boasting a jacuzzi that we enjoyed every single day while taking in the breathtaking sunsets. 🌇 The cleaning service was exceptional. We were never disturbed or even saw the housekeeping staff during our stay, yet every time we returned to our room, it was spotless. The staff went above and beyond to meet all our requests, for which we are truly grateful.🙏🏻 It's rare to find such friendly and accommodating service these days. 🔝HIGHLY RECOMMENDED🔝👌

I felt welcome and home, that made all the difference to me during my stay in Malta for business. Modern, new, clean place to stay in walking distance to St. Julian's, but well outside the hassle of Paceville. Café/Restaurant next door, mini markets close-by. I enjoyed chatting with the owners and staff in the mornings. Breakfast was great with many healthy options (fresh fruit, nuts, avocado, eggs, Greek joghurt etc.). Room was spacious. TV has Netflix and other apps. Plugs are universal, i.e. no adapter was needed. Self-check-in at night was efficient. Windows are soundproof to keep road noise out. Grazzi ħafna!

Excellent location, short stroll to the end of the road for the bus stop. Excellent, spotless clean room, bonus was the hot tub on the balcony and view afar. All the staff we encountered were excellent and friendly. Added bonus was the bar/restaurant downstairs which catered really delicious food. The staff were super friendly and nothing was too much trouble. After reception hours we had a minor problem with the lights in our room and the guy from room service was happy to fix it when he arrived with our pizza, which was delicious! Would definitely recommend this hotel and will return in the future.

From the minute we stepped foot into Corinthia Palace the experience was excellent. Greeted by Ramesh who was so welcoming and took our bags from us and also was so helpful when we were leaving, such a friendly face. The staff by the pool were so quick to help, service was fast and was such a lovely bunch of people. The staff at the Villa Corinthia restaurant were so accommodating, quick service and went that extra way to make our experience amazing. Every staff member at the hotel gave excellent customer service. The food, cocktails, staff, things the hotel offered was all excellent. A beautiful hotel, with so much to offer. Delicious food in the restaurants, great cocktails, big pool, hairdressers, tennis court, spa with a private pool area you can book which is so beautiful and relaxing. The hotel offers so much and the level of service is amazing in every part of the hotel. We really loved this hotel and want to come back! Thank you so much to all the team, every individual was amazing!

Corinthia was simply spectacular. When you search for the few 5 star hotels on the island, yes there are options that are close/in the historic center or by the sea but we stopped by those hotels later on for drinks and food and they are nowhere close to Corinthia when it comes to charm and the pool area all by itself is a reason to stay here. The building is a marvelous old palace and every detail is aesthetically thought. The fruit options could have had more variety but that is all I can really think of. The dinner experience at Bahia was interesting, perhaps would have preferred to be served the silverware instead of grabbing them myself every time from the secret drawer under the table. Try the fabulous cocktail they have with the local prickly pear liquor. It was our favorite. The floral arrangements all around the hotel are a huge success. Also the coffee machine should be provided in each room without having to ask for it. Overall fantastic stay though. The other 5 star hotels can be never but their outdoor pools are much smaller and the charisma of Corinthia wins over with fabulous gardens, pool etc. Highly recommended.

Elegant hotel with excellent staff. Fab pool area, with poolside service and a very good restaurant. Excellent spa with indoor pool. A choice of several restaurants which were all very good. And an amazing breakfast which was served in the most grand setting. Location is a 10/15 min. cab ride from all the major sites. Would definitely recommend.

This is a beautiful hotel and the staff were all lovely. The welcome drink on arrival was much appreciated. The location is in a quiet but nice town, Attard, conveniently located for visiting Mdina and the rest of the island as well as the Valletta area as it is in the middle of Malta. Rooms were a good size with nice balconies and extremely comfortable and large beds. Beware of rooms on the ground floor as our adult children were given a twin room there but it had a very musty smell. But they were happy to move them to a different room when we asked. Bathrooms had a rather 1980s feel but were well maintained but not super modern. The pool area is not as large as we thought from the photos and was fairly crowded with loungers quite close together. But it’s a lovely pool and very well maintained and with comfortable loungers and good drinks service by the pool. Breakfast buffet is good, and served in the beautiful grand dining room. Rather understaffed we felt as we waited a long time for tea and coffee and any ordered items to be served. Dinner at the secret garden restaurant was lovely and dinner at the Bahia restaurant was Amazing! We had 2 courses each and a dessert to share from the a la carte menu as we didn’t feel like the full tasting menu and it was amazing, with several amuse bouche offered between courses as well. No need to order dessert as they bring lovely petites fours!

We had a really lovely 4 night stay at Corinthia Palace. The room was really clean & was nice & spacious. We had dinner in Bahia which was a really great experience and got breakfast, brunch and a late lunch in Josephine’s. It was a great location as really close to Rabat/Mdina and a good base in central Malta for getting around the island. We had hired a car and it was really easy to park here. The staff were all lovely & so helpful. A special mention to Marie Louise on reception who checked us in and out. She was really friendly and gave us lots of recommendations. The indoor swimming pool was a good size and not too busy. It would be nice to use the outdoor pool in Summer. We booked the vitality suite but could only get in here one evening and the slot was 45 mins. We stayed at a hotel in Valetta that cost twice the price for one night and I actually preferred the Corinthia & thought it was better value. Would not hesitate to recommend and would love to come back.

A well appointed hotel, terrific rooftop plunge pool with a great view, just minutes from all the sites and restaurants, yet very quiet. All the staff were friendly and helpful. We will be back.

Amazing hotel in a fantastic location and lovely friendly staff . Room was lovely , pool was great and definitely more than a plunge pool mentioned in other reviews .lovely views over Valletta harbour . Breakfast was great with a selection of items on the a la carts menu and a continental buffet . Rooms are air conditioned . Valletta is lovely to stay in and this hotel is amazing . I would definitely come back

The Gomerino hotel is in a great spot within Valletta, and has great facilities. The staff are friendly and we enjoyed making use of the rooftop pool, loungers and bar. We spa-area was also nice, but we were expecting the “plunge pool” to be cold (it was warm) and the sauna is only available by appointment only. The masseuse was unavailable for most of our stay, but the reception desk did recommend another spa on the street. The breakfast was quite nice, but the a la carte options including in the stay weren’t amazing (like the French toast - very dry). Some more cereal and whole-fruit options on the buffet would have been good! Our room itself was fine, although the air con was very noisy overnight and we didn’t find the pillows comfortable at all. There was no full-length hanging space for dresses, and also no iron to get the creases out. Our room turndown service sometimes felt incomplete, with towels getting taken away to be washed but not replaced - meaning we had to go find different towels from the spa area. Overall, the hotel facilities and staff were excellent but the room itself lacked some comfortable features and it wasn’t the best hotel experience as a result of that

Classic style Maltese building, boutique hotel, ideally situated for visiting and exploring Valletta, Malta. Situated on a street with vehicular access, and at the top of the hill, it means you can easily get a taxi and can walk out of your hotel and into old town’s pedestrian zone, without having to immediately climb up a steep hill. The roof top has a plunge pool and bar with spectacular views of the harbour and Fort St Angelo. The room we had was beautiful, with comfortable bed and walk in shower. The only window, looked into an internal, open (5 levels up) to the sky above, courtyard. This made it very quiet ( with exception to when fireworks were going off near by, which the Maltese excel at. The lobby, which was appropriately small for the size of the hotel, was adorned with classical sculptures and art. Ellen at the front desk could not have been more helpful, and always greeted us cheerfully. The breakfast area was always well stocked and the food great. The staff, especially Pratima, Eliza and Magdalene, were great at serving us, yet not making us feel hurried. This all helped to make a wonderful time in Malta.

Gomerino Hotel is a hidden gem in Valletta and is in a perfect location for walking to many notable sights. The room offers temperature control for cooler sleeping, marble floors with rugs at your bedside, and heavy drapes that block out light. Our room felt smallish but we had everything we needed - even a magnifying mirror with light for grooming. We loved the rooftop pool and bar. If you want to use the pool ( it’s small, for cooling off - only 1 meter deep), get there early if you need a chair or lounge chair. We enjoyed the night time the best because the view is just incredible. And during festival season, fireworks shows are frequent, as each little town has its own celebration for its patron Saint. Breakfast is included and very tasty with choices for Maltese dishes as well as common favorites such as eggs Benedict (cooked perfectly) and English Breakfast. There are also additional items for purchase if you don’t like the included offerings. There’s also a buffet with delicious fruit (the most flavorful I’ve ever had at an hotel) and fresh squeezed orange juice. I was thrilled to be able to have oatmilk as a non-dairy option and the yogurt and dried fruit options looked good and seemed popular with other guests around us. And finally, if you don’t want to venture far for food, there is an amazing food court with a well-stocked grocery in the basement right across the street.

It’s central in St Paul’s Bay and only about 10 - 15 mins walk to Cafe Del Mar as were we’re staying as a group for a music festival. The hotel is clean and the roof top pool was nice with an infinity pool and good bar food and a nice little bar up there. Weather was so windy when we arrived so we didn’t use the pool as it was too cold. We didn’t get a chance to eat in the South Asian restaurant but there is a Wagamama also attached to the hotel which we used. The breakfast buffet had a large selection and was good. I didn’t get a chance to use the spa or indoor pool. Overall a good hotel to stay in with good facilities.

Everything about this hotel exceeded our expectations! From the moment we arrived to the time we left the staff were helpful, polite and made our stay perfect. We were given a free upgrade on arrival and a complimentary bottle of sparkling wine was in our room when we arrived. The hotel is modern and stylish and very clean. Also had an indoor pool next to the gym which I used early morning. There was also mobile phone charging points in the room and UK plug sockets. We especially liked the rooftop bar and pool. They had happy hour cocktails one hour from 7-8pm every day which we loved. Food was amazing and lots of variety. Rooms were cleaned daily and fresh towels provided. We also had housekeeping come round on an evening to ask if we had everything we needed and offered more if we had run out. Fresh water supplied also daily. There was free parking so if you want to hire a car then this is perfect and it is a great base for seeing the other islands as the ferry port is very close by. Would recommend.

We had an incredible stay at the Seaview Hotel in St. Paul’s Bay. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The sea views are absolutely breathtaking, and the infinity pool overlooking the bay is something special – the perfect spot to relax and soak in the scenery. The pool area is beautiful and well-maintained, and we really enjoyed spending our days there. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The lunch options were lovely, and the Friday BBQ night was a real highlight – amazing value, delicious all-you-can-eat food, free-flowing wine, and great entertainment. A brilliant evening all around. Our room was spotless, with great air con, a fan, coffee machine, comfy beds, and a spacious bathroom with a powerful shower – everything you could want for a relaxing stay. This hotel ticked every box and then some. We’ll absolutely be back, and we’ll be recommending it to everyone we know. Top class experience in an unbeatable location.

What a beautiful hotel, it's everything we wanted it to be. The staff are exceptionally friendly and welcoming all going above and beyond to interact with us regularly during our stay. Breakfast is fantastic. Lovely selection of food, all regularly replenished with juices and tea and coffee readily available. The roof top pool is lovely. Spacious and clean with stunning views. Loved the indoor spa area, nice warm pool, great showers, sauna and steam room. Rooms are large, we had a side sea view, but in reality it was much more than a side view! Id love to come back to one of the front facing rooms one day! Bed was super comfy. Lots of storage space, mini fridge, safe, tea and coffee facilities etc. bathroom was spacious. We stayed for a week for our honeymoon and loved every minute of it. Thanks for the card, wine and cake that was so graciously left in our room on our arrival!

The property was in a great location and the staff & facilities were great. Bonus was that it had an undercover car park which is extremely helpful as finding a car park in Malta can be challenging at times. Great buffet breakfast also with beautiful sea views. Beautiful infinity pool overlooking the sea and an indoor pool.

My first impression .. I was very impressed! The staff were very friendly and so welcoming. The Mercure was very clean and cool (the temperature outside was very hot)!! The security man welcomed us first and shook mine and my partners hand. He introduced himself Bhim Raj Ghale and was so welcoming. He would talk to us every evening and was helpful advising how to get around and nice places to go. Check in was very quick and straightforward and the receptionist was very informative too regarding any questions we had or trips we could book if we wanted to. The property was so convenient and near everything we could possibly want. Our room was very clean, spacious and the bed was really comfortable. Shower was great too. Absolutely everything was amazing! The roof top pool was lovely and relaxing and the food was always freshly cooked and very tasty!! Alison was also very helpful and went the extra mile for us on our last day sorting out our taxi to the airport… Thank you Alison!

My stay at the Mercure Hotel St. Julian’s was simply spectacular. From the very first moment, the staff welcomed me with a warm smile and impeccable professionalism. The attention to detail was evident in every corner of the hotel: modern, spotless, and extremely comfortable rooms, with an impressive view of the city and the sea. The location is perfect—right in the vibrant heart of St. Julian’s, just steps away from restaurants, shops, and the beautiful Maltese coastline, yet quiet enough to enjoy a restful night’s sleep. Breakfast was another highlight: varied, delicious, and made with fresh ingredients every day. The rooftop pool is pure luxury. Relaxing there at sunset, with panoramic views, is a priceless experience. Plus, the gym and common areas are always spotless. I highly recommend Mercure St. Julian’s to anyone looking for quality, comfort, and a experience in Malta. I’ll definitely be back!

When we arrived at the hotel, the lobby was full of guests, but that didn't stop the friendly reception staff from spotting us and immediately welcoming us. Lobby and corridors smell very nice. Our room, like the entire hotel, was sparkling clean. In general, all the staff at the hotel were very friendly, each of them would stop to ask us if everything was ok and if we needed anything. We had dinner on the roof of the hotel by the pool, with a breathtaking view. The pistachio pizza was delicious, I recommend everyone to try it. Thank you, Mercure team, we look forward to seeing you again

Pleasant rooms, friendly staff, excellent breakfast. The rooftop pool is not very large, but it is well arranged, with plenty of sunbeds and benches. The view is wonderful both during the day and in the evening. The hotel is in a great location, two blocks from the bus stop and various shops. It is about 300 meters from the party district, which is very lively at night and it is great place to walk around in the evening. Regardless, the hotel and rooms are quiet, perfect for relaxation.

This is my second time in the hotel, and even though my trips are short i fell in love with this place. Everything is over the top, the pool bar, the breakfast, the cleaning but especially the staff makes the whole difference. They are kind and always available for any doubts or even just a quick chat, I love the fact that is so easy to comunicate woth them and that they took so much care about my requests. Definelty recommended!!!!!

I had a great 5-night stay at the Antoniel Suites in November. The hotel itself is modern, well-maintained, and has a nice design and good furniture. With only four rooms per floor, it feels cozy and private. My room, 904 on the 9th floor, had a lovely big balcony with a table, 2 chairs and a nice city view. The warm, sunny weather (around 20–22 degrees) made it comfortable to stay in the room without needing air conditioning. The housekeeping was impeccable, with daily cleaning and fresh towels. The room was cosy, and the comfortable mattress and pillows, along with good soundproofing, made for restful nights. While the central location occasionally meant some outside noise when the window or balcony door were open, the room was perfectly quiet once they were closed. It was good to have an electric kettle, cups, glasses, plates, cutlery, a small refrigerator, a safe and a hair dryer in the room. On request, I was also provided with an ironing board, iron, and adapter to use during my stay. There were also several USB outputs over each night table making the charging of devices easy. The staff were polite, helpful, and kind. I was contacted beforehand for my flight details and the late check-in arrangements. Special thanks to Julie for her exceptional hospitality! Though the hotel doesn’t serve breakfast, this wasn’t an issue for me as I’m not an early riser and there was a great choice of cafes, pastry kiosks, grocery stores and supermarkets close to the hotel.

This was amazing! Together with a collague when we were booking a trip to Malta & St Julian's we had no idea where we will end up. First things first, everything was so clean in the room! The bed, the shower, toilet, AC - perfect 10! Only issue was maybe a bit worn out chair...but to be honest that is the last thing you need to be 10/10. Second, they are really quick! The check-in is at 15:00, however, we got our room already att 11:30 which was a blessing. And last but not least, the reception staff. Maria, Omar and Annamaria you are absolutley amazing! The amount of friendliness, willingness to help, advise and everything really made our stay amazing! When you book a hotel with 3* you don't expect such service, but these people really put effort into what they do and it doesn't matter if it is 11am or 3am in the night, they are always willing to help. Overall, the cleaniness of the room & whole hotel, the kindness of the staff really made our 1week stay in St Julian's 10x better. Oh and you don't have to worry about the noise from Paceville or other rooms, you don't hear anything + the receptionists make sure that noone is too loud so we can rest. Thank you Antoniel Suites, we might see you again some time ❤️

I had a very pleasant stay at Antoniel Suites in St. Julians, Malta. The accommodation was great, and the check-in process was seamless. The staff was friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. The room was clean and well-maintained, with all the necessary amenities to make the stay comfortable. One of the best parts was the location — it was conveniently close to 24/7 supermarkets and public transportation, making it easy to get around. The room itself was very comfy, and the atmosphere of the entire property felt relaxed and welcoming. For the price, I think Antoniel Suites offers great value, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a convenient and pleasant stay in St. Julians.

No breakfast included with this room, but some biscuits and free coffee and free water were available. There is a kitchen facility available, if one wants to use it. Very kind person named Fabio worked when I arrived and did everything to make my stay pleasant. I arrived quite early, and they enabled early check in. Fabio's advices were very good and friendly and useful. Fabio deserves 5+! The room was on the 6th floor, nice, good bed, nice choice of pillows. The view was to the next building and the roofs, and that's on of the few minuses, but unimportant for me.. The building is located nicely.

We stayed for 5 nights at the beginning of Oct. Our room was on the 10th floor, with a side view, overlooking the pool of the building next door. Very comfortable chairs on the balcony, wish I had some for my own garden! The bed was comfy and there's a fab shower. We found the reception staff to be friendly and helpful - and we really appreciated the anniversary bottle of wine and card, thank you. The hotel is in a great location for dinner options, all the boat trips (including boat to Valletta), and local buses. We used this as our base from which to explore Valletta, Mdina, Rabat, Marsaxlokk, St Julian via local buses (€2.50 per journey, any distance). Also took the bus to the Gozo ferry port in the North. The pool is great, with stunning views. They did run out of pool towels a lot though! We really enjoyed a swim after a hot day sightseeing (temp was around 26 -28 degrees in Oct). We only had breakfast on one of the mornings - everything was delicious with a great choice.

Beautiful, clean hotel. Great location to restaurants, 3 minute walk to the Valetta Ferry. The front desk staff greeted us with warm smiles and words, making us feel right at home. There's 2 elevators and rarely waited long for one. The rooms are well appointed, modern amenities and the chilled water was a nice touch. Bathrooms have nice linens, soaps and hair products. Loved the smell. One complaint, the hot water went quickly when showering, but good pressure and relaxing. The pool, spa have a harbor view from the 11th floor. Nice big pool towels. Overall, great location, staff and hotel. It will be our go to hotel in Malta. Fabulous experience.

Room was very spacious. Staff were friendly. Shame pool is indoors, but there is a pool outside that has connections with the hotel. Room service and the food from restaurant was great! Lovely friendly service from breakfast staff.

The most impressive at the Land's End Boutique Hotel is the incredible views on the Bażilika Santwarju tal-Madonna tal-Karmnu, Valletta, Manoel Island and Sliema shoreline. The reception staff during our stay was exceptional. They make you feel at home and are helpful with any reasonable request that they can resolve within their own expertise. I have rarely seen such dedicated staff. The room was clean and the toiletries were of excellent quality. The rooms were cleaned daily and were very clean. The living room which is available to guests free of charge is another optional service. During the opening hours of the lounge, there are always snacks and drinks available for guests to enjoy. The in-house swimming pool on the eleventh floor invites you to relax and swim and like all other areas, it is very clean. Although the hotel is located on a very busy corner of Sliema, our room was quite quiet and was equipped with almost everything a traveler could wish for, hairdryer, ironing board and iron, and a very good fridge. There are plenty of power sockets and there are even USB ports by the beds for charging your cell phone or tablet.

Land’s End was a great find. There were friendly staff on arrival and we had a spacious room with a magnificent view of the capital Valletta. The only downside was the noisy road below but that’s to be expected when you stay on a popular strip of the island - the balcony door was pretty soundproof so had no trouble sleeping. The beds were made every day and room was very clean. We made use of the pool facilities, and the hotel restaurant ‘Hammett’s Monastik’ served some of the best food and drink I’ve ever experienced! The restaurant uses 99% local produce and has a seasonal menu - we enjoyed it so much we didn’t venture out to other restaurants because the quality was of such a high standard and the staff were delightful. I believe the hotel is also introducing a bakery in the not too distant future. Overall the hotel experience was excellent, and location wise perfectly situated close to the ferry terminal for trips to Valletta and further afar.

Beautifully decorated rooms with great air-conditioning! service exceptional! Staff super friendly! Location brilliant! lovely little private pool too.

This hotel is in a wonderful perfect location in Valletta right next to the Grandmaster Palace and very close to the St. John's Co-Cathederal and many other sites, including the harbor ferries to 3 cities and Sliema. The hotel is a sister property to the Rosselli which is where the breakfast, pool and other restaurants happen. I would definitely recommend this hotel for not just its location but the wonderful service and amenities it offers. Staying away from the city and coming in daily or taking a car / ferry service is just worth it in my opinion.

The staff were exceptional, always courteous, helpful, and friendly. The facilities were excellent, with a comfortable air-conditioned room and access to a rooftop pool. Also it has a fantastic location in the heart of Valletta.

This is a great little boutique hotel that is run by Hotel Rosselli a few doors down, and allows use of their rooftop bar and pool. The Hotel has an amazing central location on Merchant St and is next to number of bars and restaurants which makes for a bustling atmosphere. Our room was stylish and huge, with a very comfortable super king bed. Breakfast was excellent - fresh fruit, yoghurt, pastries and eggs cooked any way you want - all served in their lovely outdoor dining area.

I recently stayed at the AX Saint John Hotel in Valletta, and it exceeded all my expectations. This beautifully modern hotel is not only well-built but also superbly insulated, ensuring a quiet and peaceful stay. The staff were incredible, offering exceptional friendliness and service. On my birthday, they surprised me with a lovely letter and a bottle of prosecco, making my stay even more special. The bathroom was immaculate, well-lit, and regularly serviced, adding to the comfort of my stay. The hotel's unique hydration stations – available in the room, just outside, and at the entrance – were a fantastic touch, ensuring I stayed refreshed throughout my visit. The continental breakfast was delicious and super filling, providing a great start to my day. One of the highlights was the detailed map and thorough explanation of places to visit in Valletta and across Malta provided by the staff. Their local insights were invaluable and truly enhanced my trip. In summary, the AX Saint John Hotel is a perfect blend of modern luxury and impeccable service. Whether you are visiting for a special occasion or just need a relaxing getaway, this hotel delivers on all fronts. I highly recommend it and would definitely stay here again. 10/10.

Breakfast was great, you can order coffee from the bar which is great. Plunge pool was good for cooling down. Staff was nice and friendly and the location is great

Spotlessly clean, close to restaurants, excellent breakfast, nice and helpful staff, the plunge pool

Very modern and stylish hotel with the most helpful and welcoming staff. Central location and we made good use of the gym and plunge pool. Breakfast was reasonable.

The staff were hospitable and and displayed great customer service skills. The breakfast was plentiful and had good variety.The hotel decor was modern with a twist of cultural mix in places. The only downside is the pool which was created from a previous underground well which is circular more like a plunge pool rather than a swimming pool.

We were celebrating my fiancé's 30th birthday, and the staff kindly upgraded our room. The room was large, had an indoor balcony, and on his actual birthday, they gifted us a free drink at a sister hotel. The staff are beyond friendly and polite, and the rooms are cleaned daily. The plunge pool is a lovely way to recharge after a long day. It is quite deep, which I didn't realise! The location is also perfect, so close to the buzz of the city, yet it's not noisy at all! Plus, the breakfast is absolutely delicious!

What a lovely hotel! It felt very modern, very clean and there was easy access to the town and waterfront of Malta. We found it easy to book excursions from the area as the hotel is located in such a convenient spot. It is attached to a luxury hotel next door which is more expensive, however you still get to utilise all of the same facilities as the hotels are attached. Unable to comment on the restaurants as we did not use them, only utilised the breakfast each morning - breakfast was good, a decent amount of range and good quality, hot food. Good service and all of the staff were very friendly. The room appeared small in the pictures however appeared much more spacious when we were there. We also utilised the balcony which was lovely in the evenings. The only flaw I would say is that the pool was freezing cold - however, what do you expect going in October! This did not let us down, we enjoyed the cold pool for short periods. I bet it it a lovely relaxing spot during warmer seasons. Poolside bar was lovely and staff were friendly. Overall we had a lovely time at the Victoria and we will definitely be returning

I cannot fault this hotel, wonderful from start to finish, we came on half board, the breakfast has everything you could want and The tabloid restaurant has plenty on offer from the buffet! The staff are very friendly and go above and beyond, we had an unfortunate encounter with one staff member but it was quickly cleared up and handled very professionally, the cleaning staff are super fast and take care of the room, I don’t know who the cleaner was doing our room 320 but he/ she is amazing! So nice to come back to a made bed, mopped floors and our stuff neatly folded, thank you! Malta itself is beautiful if not a little too hot for me, pools are lovely and the adults only downstairs is great, super quiet and away from the crowding upstairs, one unfortunate feature would be that The Victoria shares the pool with the sister hotel The Palace and I feel the pool is too small for this however this is only a tiny issue and doesn’t take away from the Ax Victoria at all, everything is clean and tidy and staff are superb, thank you so much xxx

Beyond delighted with this location. We will be back. Reception staff so helpful they make sure your stay is great. We get to our room and it’s so lovely and super clean. Son also has an adjoining room that really works for us. It’s so hot we are delighted air conditioning working. We try the indoor pool and love it. Nice for sunloungers inside alongside pool area and fresh towel top up. The rooftop swimming pool and sunloungers are great with towels provided. Also tables and chairs on rooftop. We choose to have drink at rooftop bar which is amazing in an evening. They provide a lovely pizza for supper and lovely cold drinks. It’s a beautiful place to cool down after a hot day the views are outstanding of Malta. We watched some lovely food given to guests. We went half board at The Tabloid and that food was superb. The morning buffet breakfast in Victoria had a choice for everyone. Son needed an iron for his shirt reception staff promptly arranged this. When we next come back we are bringing the rest of my family.

Visit 64 was for 10 nights and Visit 65 was for 17 nights in July. Everything was as good as ever, breakfast is taken in The Copperfield restaurant and is a varied menu of both hot and cold items from cereals, meats, salads, freshly cooked omelettes and much more. Dinner as mentioned in earlier reviews is taken next door in the attached 5* AX The Palace Hotel. There are swimming pools on the 8th & 9th floors which are used by guests from both AX The Victoria and AX The Palace and the 8th floor pool is an adults only pool, during our recent visit we saw and spoke to guests that we’ve seen on previous stays so they are also regular visitors also. Finally the other thing that makes our visits are the hotel staff, they are so friendly from the reception staff, chambermaids, restaurant staff, maintenance staff and management. Looking forward to Visit 66, 15 weeks yesterday on 5th November.

Rooms were spacious, lovely sea view and decent sized bathroom. The Hotel was 5-10mins away from the shops (Zara especially) with the boat docks and restaurants in the same area. Loved the rooftop pool, we didn't realize there were 2 which was a nice surprise when we arrived. There's 1 main infinity pool and a smaller/quieter one on the below level. The rooftop bar was lovely too, you had 2 bar options to choose from, the staff were great! There's a huge spa with a sauna and pool (We didn't use this but would have if the weather wasn't great)

Value for money the Ibis is in a great location to explore the island. The rooms are small and lacking in draws or hanging facilities, unless staying 1-2 nights. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast is a tad hit and miss due to when it’s refreshed but there’s always good cold options. Love the roof top pool and the fact that you can sunbath and use the bar facilities. It’s not expensive to use the transport system and we experienced Valetta and Gozo, we also used Bolt and Uber to get around, which was normally good value. The hotel was close to some good restaurants and bars and I would totally recommend this hotel. If i return, I would probably stay in Gozo, as i loved the chilled out vibe and having limited traffic, as Malta is too busy with traffic and building work going on. The island has changed a lot since the 80s but still offers good value for money in St Paul’s bay, with competitive prices. We had some lovely meals out, which were good value and the local wine is definitely worth a shout. If you are looking for a central hotel to discover the island, not far from the airport, with a pool, this could be a very good choice and offers value for money with fab amenities.

It’s really clean hotel with nice pool and pool bar. Customer service was great, we especially liked Mitar and Sladja since they were friendly and communicative.

The location and rooftop pool were great, pool bar guy David very friendly as were the day and night receptionists, always helpful and smiling. The Seaview was beautiful from our room, great to wake up to.

Excellent hotel from start to finish. All staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcomed. Overall, the staff in this hotel are the best we have experienced from all our travels. The room/ bathroom was very modern, which was to our style. We had a Juliet balcony, which was adequate for us as we are mostly out of the hotel. The huge bed was a delight. A great choice of food at breakfast, which was cooked well, even crispy bacon. Aircon in the room works perfectly and is extremely quiet. We used the pool area on a few occasions and enjoyed the experience. We always got sunbeds. Drinks and food were reasonably priced, too. Yes, there is work being carried out around the area and almost everywhere in Malta, but please don't mark the hotel down for this as its not their fault. We did research before we booked, and nothing was unexpected. We booked trips and used the buses to get around. If you want a hotel to travel around, this hotel is a very good base. Bars and restaurants are nearby.

This was a really good choice for our family stay in August. Rooms were nice and cleaned each day. Staff friendly. A good breakfast in the morning with lots of choice on offer. The rooftop pool, although not huge, was a really nice place to spend some time and watch the sunset. The rooftop bar is also nice. The location is great, right in the heart of St Pauls Bay and a 2 min walk to bars, restaurants, shops and the waterfront with bus stops taking you to and from Valletta just yards away. The only down side of this hotel is the lack of parking so you have to rely on on-street parking which can take a while to find. We always found somewhere close by but it was a pain driving around searching for a space. That said, i would definately choose this hotel again and have no complaints about the hotel itself but my advice is, if you choose this hotel and you have a hire car, practice your parallel parking!! Enjoy your stay, we did.

10/10 experience - we would definitely come again! Insanely friendly staff (especially the lady at the reception!) who would do anything to make our hotel stay special. Upon arrival we got a free upgrade to a suite with a jacuzzi (and a voucher for 2 glasses of prosecco) which was a lovely touch seeing as it was my birthday! The location is unmatched, super central, and the breakfast was big enough - there's a small buffet with pastries / fruit and then you can order a hot meal too to the table. Breakfast area is very small so make sure you either get there early or just before close. We sadly weren't able to use the rooftop pool because it's not heated but they have a sister hotel with a heated rooftop pool as well as an indoor pool - not sure if we could have used that one instead?

Great little hotel! Even though check in wasn’t till 2pm we were able to check in at 11am as our room was available. Room was very spacious, very clean and the air con excellent. Valletta was very warm (weekend in August). We used the rooftop pool, which was nice, however not until the last day did we find out there is a sister hotel, Gomerino, where the pool is much better and excellent views of the three cities. Breakfast was good, lovely to see some Maltese dishes to sample! Our flight home was late at night, the hotel itself doesn’t have a shower to use after going out for the day/ in the pool but as stated above you can use the sister hotel which does have a shower and changing facilities. It’s about a 5/10 min walk. Overall a lovely hotel.

What a hotel. Location great for bars and restaurants. Loved the Discount store across the road a must visit. Room was amazing lovely bath. The bed was so comfy and massive. Loved it!!! The balcony was fab watching people go by. Breakfast delicious plenty of options everything kept full and spotless. What a great place Loved every minute. Can't wait to visit again. The only down side was the bar never opened not an option of a drink to take to the pool. Had to buy from shop to take to pool. Would have loved a cocktail. The pool was freezing too. But very relaxing. Overall a fab hotel. Thank you 😊

Beautiful Hotel. all amenities were catered for. This hotel holds a special place with us, as it used to be my Great Grandmothers home many many years ago. We decided to stay here after a brief visit in 2024. The hotel is made up of 39 rooms from rooms to suites. We stayed in room 13, very clean very well attended to by the staff. Arrival was incredibly easy the room was clean and beautifully present. A mix of modern and various antiquities. The hotel offers only bed and breakfast which was fresh every morning, with a selection of fresh cooked options. Again nothing to much. As for evening meals there is an over abundance of restaurants just minutes from where the hotel is situated in Republic Street and Merchant Street. Roof top pool, sunbeds always available and the views while whiling away hours in the pool were fantastic. The staff were phenomenal, everyone so courteous and welcoming. One person we'd like to single out was Ana May, Ana was lovely, an absolute professional a total credit to this hotel and her profession. Always smiling we will miss her. In summary a wonderful stay, Granny would of been pleased! we can't wait to visit again very soon. Thank you.

As many say before, great hotel, location and friendly staff. The pool is small but sufficient for a dip to cool down after a day of exploring. Only 5-10 min to the centre . Breakfast buffet is small but sufficient and you can order from an a’la carte menu as well. Rooms are great. We had one with a whirlpool which was lovley in the evening. It’s quiet as well as it’s a bit further from the centre which was ideal for our family but close enough to walk to all the main areas . Definitely recommend this hotel. The only thing I would say is that I think the filter on the pool could be better . Quiet a few hairs were spotted during our splash.

Amazing staff and service KM

The welcoming was nice, swift and we were offered a refreshing welcome drink, on Christmas Eve we got a beautiful surprise we found cookies in our room. Before we leave we got popcorn in our room with a thank you for staying. We left very early in the morning and they prepared a very nice take away breakfast, pastries were warm. The daily breakfast was very good and has a variety. They made special egg when I asked. The room had an esspresso machine and they put coffee capsules everyday. Very near to the sea sidewalk, the area is lively and but not noisy. the room is conferrable, we did not have the spa card but the Gym and pool we available for us, the Gym is small but the equipments are new, the pool is also small by our two sons enjoyed their time so much in the pool. the staff a so friendly.

The HOLM hotel was fantastic! Great location in St Julian's, just up the hill from all the action. Quiet, except for the two roosters, but that added charm. Got an upgraded room on the 4th floor. Spacious, great shower, nice to have a kitchenette and fridge for the delicious food we picked up. Patio with a covered bed lounger was great - sunbathed and napped on it. The hot tub was amazing! Very clean and awesome to use while enjoying the music from the hotel's pool terrace. The hotel pool was refreshing with a cute patio. Breakfast was also very good - all the right things and local pastries - the pastizzio of different fillings - was great. Highly recommend. Service was friendly and accessible.

A warm welcome upon check-in where I was greeted by my name and a lovely chat. The room was clean, spacious and modern. Temperature easy to set based on personal preferences. Perfect location if you have to visit several places around Sliema, Gzira, Msida and Valletta. All easy to reach with Bolt within 10-15mins and several busses are available next to the hotel as well. The university campus is close by (5-10 min walk) with a proper sized Welbee's to do groceries in case you prefer to cook. Kitchenette with all basic supplies. Gym and rooftop terrace with a pool. The staff from the bar/restaurant one floor below was also very friendly and brought my order up to the pool terrace instead of making me wait. Will definitely return next time I visit Malta.

Cozy rooms, they have everything you need. The kitchen has dishes. High-quality cleaning, nice staff. The rooftop pool has a perfect view. Well equipped gym. The bus stop is right under the hotel. The reception desk gives out towels for the pool, although each employee tells different information about them. (Someone told us that we need to return them as soon as we stop using them, and someone else said that one is given for all days. One said that you can take them to the beach, another that you can't.)

Newly build modern hotel in a good location (close to Valetta and Sliema, with bus stops next to hotel), friendly staff, very clean and comfortable. The hotel has a rooftop where breakfast is served and you can swim in the pool. The pool is quite small but the view is great and you can see Valetta and the sea while swimming. The room has been quite big with modern interior and included a kitchen. Overall we have been very happy with our stay.

The room was spacious, with a well furnished kitchen (fridge, cooker, oven, coffee machine, etc) a big, modern bathroom and a balcony with a view to surrounding area (it was nice to see the sunrise from the room). The whole hotel was very clean, with the staff tidying up our room daily and adding some bottles of water. The staff at reception were kind and helpful. There was a bar at the top floor, where we had a simple bit well prepared choice of continental or european breakfast, and it was a fantastic spot to have a drink while watching the sunset. There is a pool as well, with a panoramic view of the island. One important detail is that the hotel is near a busy roundabout. Whereas it is centrally located to reach anywhere in Malta by bus and taxi, and the room has a decent amount of sound insulation, it may be a bit bustling with activity for some - we found it a nice way to feel the pulse of the life in Malta, and it blends well with the character of the island. The hotel definitely offers good amenities to relax and enjoy, and it made a great visit to this charming country even better.

Absolutely fantastic hotel. Probably the nicest stay we've ever had. Friendly and helpful reception staff, extremely thorough cleaning staff (who clean throughout the day). The facilities are exceptional, with a pool, terrace and gym on the upper floors. We wished that the terrace area was open post 10pm as we would have definitely used it later than this, but this is the only small criticism we can think of. We checked in and out both late and extremely early outside of reception hours but it was clearly discussed with us how we could get around this and all instructions given were clear and precise. The 24hr reception facility on WhatsApp is superb and the room we stayed in represents fantastic value for money, with a large bed, modern kitchen and bathroom, two televisions, office desk space and small kitchen table plus a balcony. This enabled us to prepare our own food during the stay which was a real plus. All in all a fantastic experience which I'm sure we will repeat in the future. A big thank you to all the staff at Park Heights and for helping to make our stay in Malta really special (such a beautiful country).

The hotel is beautiful, we had a penthouse room with a hot tub, very welcome after spending a day walking around Mdina. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The view from the pool area is lovely, and the plunge pool is refreshing. Breakfasts were varied and very good.

Amazing modern hotel with friendly and kind staff, USB-A and USB-C chargers, spacious and quiet rooms with good noise cancelation (which is important if you are staying in the St. Julian's) and air conditioner. The hotel has a laundry room for use near the reception and a pool on the top floor. There is a luggage room where you can place your luggage before check in and/or after check out, and a restroom on the reception floor. Breakfast is mostly same everyday and pretty basic, which is okay for such hotels with this much stars, but still worthy purchasing rooms with it being included. The background music is worth mentioning, as it was very pleasant with latest pop hits being played in the breakfast area, and reception area had lounge music of popular song's covers.

We really recommend you to stay here. The facilities are various , so was the breakfast. The hotel is placed in the center of the city St Julian with many stores, restaurants and clubs near. The personnel were very kind and we got an upgraded room with a big balcony and a beautiful view. The rooftop pool is open every day. We had acces to the luggage room when we arrived and also when we left. The room service did their job well and cleaned the rooms everytime we need it.

Really central hotel. Sleek, modern and clean. Wonderful shower pressure. The rooftop pool is lovely. Too cold for my toddler but I found it refreshing. Slept great, yeah there is street noise but no more than any other busy city with a decent nightlife. Aircon works great and the staff were all absolutely lovely.

Staff at the reception desk always made me feel welcome. Lovely people. Cleaners were fantastic!! My room was upgraded, a very nice gesture and I'm so grateful. Location of the hotel was perfect, everything within walking distance. Rooftop pool area was tidy and peaceful. My experience here was faultless. Thank you.

Our room had a view of the inner courtyard with the pool which was lovely and quiet, I really appreciated it. (The pool was a bit cold though (in november) I guess it's not heated.) The room had a spacious bathroom with a huge walk-in shower which we liked a lot. The hotel was beautifully decorated, especially the hall/breakfast room/pool bar area. We didn't book the room with breakfast, but ended up having it at the hotel a few times, it was convenient that they started the breakfast service at 7 am, as our daily programs often started quite early. The breakfast was buffet style, with continental and English breakfast selection. The pool bar had a happy hour promotion and they had a few types of unique cocktails (on top of the standard selection), very good ones. The indoor pool was warm. The pool towel service was convenient (you could return it any time and ask for a fresh one, not having to dry it in your room).

Lovely hotel, clean spacious room. Breakfast was nice with lots of options to choose from. The restaurant and bar had nice decor and food was good and reasonably priced. Nice balcony and good air conditioning in the room. The hotel had a lovely indoor pool. There was also a nice outdoor pool but it was a bit cold for us in April so we didn't try it but the pool deck was spacious and the pool was cleaned every morning.

I stayed at Pebbles for 4 nights in late December between Christmas and New Years and loved every second of it. The room was spacious and very clean, the bed was super comfortable. I had a lovely poolside balcony, too, which was nice since I am a smoker. The bathroom was also spotless clean and the water pressure was very good - which is one of the small things that make a difference sometimes - so that was much appreciated. I also used the nice indoor pool and jacuzzi. At times it was quite busy but other times I had it almost to myself. I didn't not use the gym so can't comment on it, I also didn't use the outdoor pool, because it would have been too cold for me, but I saw other people get in so it could have been used. I didn't not include breakfast in my initial booking but had breakfast twice during my stay, which I paid for seperately. There were plenty of both Continental and British options to choose from at the buffet. I deserves extra mention that all of the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful and did everything to make my stay in the Buggiba area memorable. Thank you once again.

Immacutely clean hotel in walking distance to local bars, restaurants and coast. The girls in reception were so nice and accommodating, the bar and restaurant staff were always there for your food and drink needs in botel hotel bar and adjoining sports bar. Food was beautiful. Room was cleaned every day. Sunsoaked balcony overlooking pool most of the day was surprising as sun didn't shine down on pool as its low this time of year. Indoor heated pool was a bonus when coming back from day time excursions or walks around St Paul's Bay and was open until 10pm. Great value for money all round.

I liked the buffet breakfast which was various for everyone needs. The room was cosy and modern which had a comfortable bed too. The indoor pool is good sized and had a jacuzzi too. The indoor pool was open till 10pm which is nice if you want to relax there late. It had a balcony with a table and chairs so you can relax a bit with the view of the outdoor pool.

Amazing hotel, we were really looked after by staff who were always attentive. Breakfast options were plenty and really pleasant to have breakfast in the main restaurant, Room was clean, spacious and comfortable and cleaned daily, water was topped up and the welcome gifts were an added touch. Fridge was available so we could put bottled water in to keep cool for when we went to the gym. Pool was very big, quieter in the mornings and if you want a bed by the pool you need to go down before 10.30 otherwise there are plenty of beds further away. Ample gym equipment to use for guests and an indoor pool which seemed to be really popular. Also had an amazing treatment at the hotel spa. Absolutely no complaints and can’t wait to stay again.

We loved our stay here the staff in opal lounge (arjanve, mary and sopo) were amazing. They suggested places to visit with kids and could not do enough for us. Rakesh in the restaurant downstairs was great he washed out babys bottle and filled it with milk, as did the ladies here. We travelled with two small kids (2y and 4y). Pros: Pool was perfect for kids Staff were always happy to help The rooms were nice and clean Very close to restaurants walking distance Little bit of shopping bits around too Not too far to other locations such as mdina and valletta Breakfast was amazing even for me whos a vegetarian and a bit of a foodie Cons The area is a place for more of nightlife but we had no issues as usually our kids are in bed by 8pm One evening the hotel water stopped (I assume this is one off) "Private beach" is not really beachy its more of a bay with some loungers. Although this didnt bother us as the pool was much better for us.

Great location with plenty of activities within walking distance. Bus stop 5 mins away. The concierge was very helpful suggesting suitable areas of interest for a family and adequate transportation. The hotel has a lot to offer for families (pools, areas for kids to play video games, pool, etc...) Room and beds were very comfortable and big enough for our family of 5. A special mention: the excellent service provided by the Opal Lounge team and the quality and variety of the breakfast at the Opal Lounge.

I cannot fault the staff who were absolutely fabulous, there are a few tiny things, but the overall experience is absolutely amazing. The main pool is great with plenty of staff serving pool snacks. Upgrade to include the Opal Lounge, makes the experience so positive, breakfast every morning and then afternoon tea is worthwhile. The resort is great with plenty of food options, especially for a family, well for what we wanted.

Lovely hotel, staff, buffet breakfast and room all very nice. Both roof top pools are stunning. Travelled solo, it was nice to be able to chill by a pool at the hotel.

The location is great with lots of cafes, restaurants and bars nearby. A nice beach club 5 minutes from the hotel. The hotel had a parking which was really helpful. The breakfast was nice. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The pool was tiny but I didn't go to Malta to use the hotel pool.

We had a lovely stay at this hotel. It’s in a great location, the staff were very friendly, and it was the perfect hotel for the price. The wide range of options at breakfast and access to the pool, where pool towels were provided...

Location. Good size room, clean & functional. Nice side-sea view. Pool area on the roof is lovely (although the pool is very small).

Great stay, exceeded our expectations. Conveniently located 50m from Gzira promenade and a bus station for a bus from the airport (TD3 bus from the airport terminal). The staff was polite and helpful (especially Ivan and Nikola). Reception desk works 24 hours and you can check-in late, we checked in after midnight without a problem. The room was spacious and clean, bathroom was big, and it provided all necessities such as kettle, safe deposit box, cable TV, streaming services. Beds were comfy with extra pillows. Breakfast was diverse and tasty. There's a swimming pool on the rooftop with amazing panorama view to Valleta, Gzira and Sliema. They even let us store our luggage because we had a late flight. All in all exceptional experience, would visit again.

Location was perfect, just a few steps from main promenade, but noticeably quieter. There are parking spots available on the street (white lines) so when returning at early hours it should be doable to find a spot. Breakfast was standard, diverse. Dining room have many tables you can sit at. There is a rooftop swimming pool, deck chairs, bar. The view is great, a light breeze gives relief on hot days. Room was clean, with a quite big bathroom. Balcony that two person can easily sit and have some rest. Bed was comfortable, room had all equipment we needed.

This was by far one of the best hotels I've stayed in so far, and I travel a lot. The staff was very friendly and helpful, everyone from cleaners through waiters and to receptionists, especially receptionist Jelena who helped us with every single question or demand we’ve had. The hotel is exceptionally clean. The room was quite spacious and the hotel is located perfectly, close to restaurants, beach and Paceviles nightlife. Breakfast could be a little bit more diverse and It would be better if the pool on the last floor was heated, but since we were there in the summer the water temperature in the pool was acceptable though.

Bed is compy , room is big , bathroom is great. Pool on the roof iz amazing. Staff of reception and pool is really kind. Location is right in centre of night lift ( 1 minute walk). Bus station is 2 minutes by walk. Hotel is new and modern . All best .

Beautiful pool. Excellent efficient and friendly staff. Ease of check in and out. Ordered food and cocktails from pool bar- very good.Exceptionally clean. Good location- near centre but off a quiet street-no noise.

nice pool area with great pool bar and drinks, spacious rooms and good air con.

It was actually really nice, clean, the staff is professional and it’s a younger team. The rooms look amazing, we were really happy with our stay and experience. Although it was sometimes a bit loud due to the location cause it’s located near the center of the Party area, it is a great location because you can reach everything with bus, there is a bus station near the hotel and it’s perfect for going out for a night because it only takes you about 5min to walk to your hotel since it’s in the party area. So ear plugs will solve the problem entirely. The pool at the top is very comfortable and a good place to cool down and you even have a nice view onto the city. There are enough sun chairs, of course it’s busier at midday but still there is plenty of space for everybody.

We had a Superior Room which was spacious, comfortable and well equipped. Lovely selection of items at breakfast and super quality. Staff really friendly and although they couldn't possibly know names as a smaller hotel would, we were recognised over the stay and they still made the effort to visit the table at breakfast most days and check how your stay was going. Service all very prompt. Location is fabulous - directly on Balluta Bay and just seconds from bus stops, restaurants, cafes, an excellent dive centre, small beach, bank and pharmacies and is easy to get everywhere you might want to go. It's nicely busy in the evening but certainly not clubby or noisy for those that need to know! The rooftop pool is pretty small and was busy with children so we sometimes used the peaceful indoor pool, which in the afternoons is adults-only with sauna/steam room etc. We didn't realise until later that they have a much larger outside pool just across the street (signs are by the check-in/Concierge desk) but I think this is new. All in all a really excellent stay - I wouldn't normally stay in a large hotel but we would stay here again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Great stay at the Marriott. Hotel was bright, clean and rooms were huge. Staff was very helpful. The cleaning of the rooms was 5*. Spa was excellent. Loved the head massage, pedicure and body scrub. The indoor pool is very zen and a chilled atmosphere. Two outdoor pools. Enough sun loungers for everyone. Good food by the pool. Cocktails a bit sweet. Only 10 min in a taxi from Valletta. Uber was there within 1 min every time we ordered a taxi. Beach is just outside the hotel. Several restaurants on the doorstep.

The Marriott didn’t disappoint. Professional from start to finish. Welcoming, organized and clean. The spa is spectacular and the massage for sure one of the better one I had. Also manicure and pedicure are professionally executed. Pool is big enough to spend part of the day and it incl. a pool bar serving a good selection on pool food. Super friendly staff.

I could not fault this hotel on one thing. From the moment we checked in with John on reception, we were greeted with lemon scented face towels to freshen up after our flight. Then we were shown to our room which was incredibly spacious, luxury pillows and duvets which allowed us to have the best nights sleep. The breakfasts each morning were exceptional with so much to choose from. The staff at breakfast were so friendly and welcoming especially Sandju Their new pool opened in Aug, a week before we arrived so there was no shortage of sunbeds which was great. Ruwan tended to our needs at the pool every day and he made some of the nicest cocktails I have ever drank!! Not forgetting Mario on Concierge, who made sure we ate at the best restaurants in Malta. Thank you to all of the team at the Marriott hotel Malta for making it such a memorable holiday, we will definitely be back

The facilities were excellent and every member of staff we encountered couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful. My kids love the three pools (the poolside bar was great and service was excellent so we enjoyed ourselves too). The breakfasts were great with plenty of options and the members club at the top of the hotel provided greats drinks and canapés in the late afternoon. I really can’t overstate how professional and friendly every member of staff we met was, I work in the hotel industry and have travelled all over the world and I can’t remember ever being so impressed by so many people in one hotel.

Very nice and helpful staff. The rooms are spacious and modern! There is a kitchen in the apartment with all the necessary tools! Just amazing! An avenue of restaurants and bars can be reached in Pestute. It is convenient to travel by public transport. Also a very large selection of Bolt and Uber at a reasonable price. Rooftop terrace pool with stunning views of Valletta. Just appreciate that the hotel is close to the night life, it's a diverse crowd by the pool who likes to spend time loudly with personal music speakers! We traveled a lot during the day, so we didn't spend much time at the pool.

The hotel was luxurious and the staff were very welcoming. The spa was very peaceful and I had an amazing massage from Nicole. We ate in the new restaurant Eleven Eleven, and the food was absolutely amazing. There are plenty of bus connections to go to Valletta and other towns nearby as well as the Ferry. The hotel is situated in Gzira on the edge of Sliema which means it was easy to walk to the restaurants and shops in Sliema and when we got back to the hotel, there was no noise as it was far enough away to not be able to hear it. The pool area is lovely and the pool temperature was perfect for the balmy weather we encountered. The views from the pool, our room and the restaurant were spectacular and every night we could see the fireworks either from the harbour side or in our room. All in all, I would highly recommend Grands Suites to anyone considering a holiday in Malta.

So happy we upgraded our room to a harbor view. Both day and night views were amazing. We heard the canons and the puffs of smoke at 12 PM from Valletta and fireworks most nights. We also got robes for the pool and slippers with the upgrade, in addition to pool towels. Staff everywhere were always friendly and helped me whenever I asked for anything. Loved having the beautiful pool upstairs with amazing views day and night and music.. So convenient when we were too tired to go out or wanted to stay at the hotel after sunset. We highly recommend this Grands Suites that was recently built in a modern style in 2022.

Wir hatten ein sehr schönes Zimmer und das Hotel ist wirklich schön und recht edel eingerichtet. Das Frühstück hat uns leider überhaupt nicht zugesagt. Insbesondere der Kaffee muss verbessert werden. Der Poolbereich ist leider etwas klein und bietet nicht genug Platz für die Hotelgäste. Es gibt am Pool Daybeds, die jedoch für Extrakosten gemietet werden müssen. Da der Platz insgesamt begrenzt ist und nicht sehr viel Schatten vorhanden ist, ist das nicht verständlich. Insgesamt sind wir mit unserem Aufenthalt durchaus zufrieden. Zur Gesamt-Erholung fehlte es uns jedoch an einem guten Frühstück und einer schöneren Poollandschaft.

The hotel… very calm atmosphere, staff lovely and professional.thanks George. Rooms .. bed large and comfy , equipment adequate. Very clean. Laundry room foc, charge great addition. go pal very efficient in clean in the room. Location… great for bus and ferry services. 30 mins walk to Valletta, 20 mid walk to St Julian’s and Sliema Pools.. rooftop lovely views and very clean. Spa and pool amazing. Restaurants… 11 11 on the rooftop breakfast is lovely and dinner was also lovely. Fer blanc on the ground floor had great food.open 7am to 10.30pm. The Avocado toast was so delicious… portions huge. Roof top bar is lovely with amazing views over Valletta and happy hour cocktails. Not great but acceptable Location… great for exploring. Ferry, bus or walking to all the major sites. Building work.. there is major construction next door that starts at 7 am. It isn’t that bad and not the hotels fault. In fact my partner took photos every day if the building work and crane… must be a blue thing. Loved it so much co,img back next April…

From the time we arrived until the time we left it has been amazing. The room, the roof top pool, the indoor pool and gym. Staff are so friendly and they are all about your experience which I think k is great as im all about customer service. The room was decorated with balloons and rose petals for my daughters birthday which was the best surprise ever. Definitely would recommend this hotel

Excellent hotel . Lovely touch with heart balloons for our anniversary on the bed. Fabulous pool with comfy sun beds and shade canopy . Bell by sun bed and waiter brought drinks or food to your bed . Spotless. Excellent staff - waiters , fresh towels provided each day for pool. Cleaners excellent . Room cleaned daily and fresh towels provided . breakfast every morning

Absolutely fab! Perfect location. Loads of restaurants, pubs, shopping mall around. St George’s bay is just 2 mins walk. The roof top pool really good. Indoor pool is small but well heated. Beds comfortable including the sofa bed. Good AC. Daily cleaning of room. Kitchenette well equipped & some drinks & cookies were left for us in the room. Loads of storage space, iron table, iron box, hair dryer, toiletries. Small balcony. Overall very good

The hotel is centrally located near clubs and the beach, and the room was clean and well maintained. However, accessing the breakfast area and pools requires walking through a mall, which is inconvenient, and the rooftop pool was too cold to enjoy. Breakfast had a good variety, and overall, the stay was enjoyable.

It was near shops and restaurants. Tour buses came through regularly so it was well situated. We loved the roof top pool and bar. The indoor pool was great as it was quiet and good if you needed a rest from the sun.

The hotel room was beautiful! Had everything we needed! Beds were really comfy. The rooftop area was lovely! Nice small plunge pool which lovely views over Sliema. Great to have access to Aqualuna pool, and to the other hotels! We can’t remember his name but the male receptionist that checked us in was so lovely, made our stay perfect- so thank you!

Great size room with balcony, good location & nice and clean. Great location about a 7 minute walk to the ferry to Valletta, with lots of restaurants and bars near by. The amenities were very good, especially enjoyed the pool access across the road. Great to have use of wellness area and rooftop pool also.

Lovely staff that went the extra mile and even decorated the room for a birthday celebration. The beds were comfortable and rooms were perfect. The pool was just across road and was a lovely pool. Would 100% recommend

Location was on a quiet side street that was very close to the main strip in Silema. We liked that it was a quiet room. The real benefit was access to the beach club across the street, and access to the rooftop pool at the sister-hotel around the corner. This location has a small rooftop pool too, but it's more the size of an unheated hottub - I'm sure it gets very warm in the summer but as were were there in Autumn it was chilly too get in. It has a great view though! We liked that the receptionist helped us store our luggage - it was a very common request amongst guests. We loved having access to everything there, near to Valetta, great restaurants all around, decent pubs and a few michelin star places about. The hotel itself was comfortable and good value.

Room was good, just as shown in the pictures, staff was very friendly, cleaning service did a great job. Location was great for my needs (depends what you are looking for, of course) - it had bus stop just next to it, so reaching Valetta centre or other parts in the island was easy, area full of caffes and shops, etc. A small and very basic pool available on the rooftop, but there is also a possibility to go to a big fantastic beach club/pool on the other side of the street, which was great. I was also given a room on one of the top floors and really appreciated the view :)

The location of the hotel is excellent, tucked away in a quiet area just a few steps away from the bustling, lively streets which ensured a peaceful nights sleep. We booked a deluxe room which was nicely furnished and included a Maltese balcony; air conditioning ensured the perfect temperature, bedding and towels were good quality and the bed was extremely comfortable. Our room was cleaned daily to a high standard and included a bottle fresh drinking water. All the staff were extremely competent and accommodating, offering advice and shortcuts to getting places to improve our stay; nothing was too much trouble and we were always warmly greeted. The roof terrace is fabulous and we managed to spend a few hours each day soaking up the sun and atmosphere while enjoying the outstanding views. It was great having the outside space to relax, plan our days and enjoy a glass of wine. Valletta is beautiful and we would not hesitate to recommend this lovely hotel for it’s location, wonderful team of staff and great views from the terrace, everything was spot on and we were made to feel very welcome

The staff made my stay outstanding. Archie and Gita went out of their way to make my stay something that I will cherish. They could not have been more welcoming, attentive, and accomodating. Thank you so much for allowing me to check in early. It meant a lot to be able to have more time in the Penthouse suite my first afternoon in Valletta to soak up the view of the Grand Harbour. What a view from the terrace. It was outstanding and exactly how I wanted my first time in Malta to start. The hotel facilities were fantastic. Breakfast was excellent and I am so pleased that I was able to have it brought to my room. The rooftop terrace was glorious with an incredible view of Valletta and the Grand Harbour. The staff made certain that the absence of the rooftop bar was a non issue providing an excellent drink service when I needed it. Thank you so much. I could not speak more highly of Palazzo Ignazio and would have stayed longer if there was a vacancy. Believe me. I tried.

We was given a very warm welcome as soon as we arrived. The luggage was taken to our room while we enjoyed a drink on the rooftop terrace while we took a moment to ourselves to relax and enjoy the views after our travels...We was impressed straight away walking into our room. Spotlessly clean had everything in it that you needed. We upgraded and had a room with a hot tub which was just perfect in the evenings. The room was daily serviced. There was a great selection and plenty of it at breakfast which was being continually topped up. We looked forward to our breakfasts each morning. The staff was well turned out very polite and friendly and nothing wasn't too much trouble for them. The hotel itself was well maintained and kept clean. In a very good location too. Will definitely be recommending and we have already said we will be going back. We just loved it

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The room was cozy and beautifully designed, making it very comfortable. Even though I arrived earlier than the usual check-in time, the staff accommodated me quickly and efficiently, so I didn’t have to wait long. One thing I especially appreciated was the availability of a coffee machine and a selection of teas, as a tea lover, this was very important to me. They also left welcome chocolates, which was a very thoughtful touch. Breakfast was decent (I have seen larger breakfast spreads in other countries) but here you can still find everything you need. The hotel’s location is excellent, just 2–3 minutes from the main street and the city’s key attractions. It’s a bit farther from the beach, but that depends on what type of accommodation you’re looking for. Overall, I had a very pleasant stay and would highly recommend this hotel.

We had a wonderful 3 night stay, hotel was perfect. Room was great. Clean and bright, bed very comfortable ,we even had a small balcony. We had breakfast on the roof top terrace, no extra charge. The continental breakfast was great with a good selection. Good location with easy walk to main centre but was also quiet at night. We will definitely be returning hopefully next year. One small issue was with the internal shower glass door which didn’t have any type of knob or handle on the inside. So my friend who is about 5 foot couldn’t reach the top of the door, so was stuck there until I opened it for her. Other than that a perfect stay all round

Superb location, walking distance from literally everything. Big room, exceptionally clean, large and very comfortable bed. Our room was overlooking to some inner courtyard so it was very quite during the night - we slept with terrace door open. Yes, the door lock does not open from first swipe every time, but it is just a matter of swiping your card few more times. It is a boutique hotel so you do not have reception staff present 24/7 but that was not an issue for us we felt very safe and staff is very helpful for everything you need. Note: breakfast is "order" type so if you are on time limit in the morning count in proper time for breakfast, it is not some long waiting time but takes longer than buffet (also is delicious 🙂).

The hosts were exceptional hospitable. Thay have even called us, to check when are we arriving, since we were a bit late from declared time to arrival. They were friendly and willing to help us to get around the best activities during the Christmas markets in Valletta. They also gave us complementary wine into our room, which was great! The rooms were big, with beautiful balcony overlooking the main street. Of course it was a bit noisy, but it is expected, since you are overlooking the gorgeous and lively main street in Valletta! The breakfast was super rich! A la carte, with very tasty selections, but practically was all you can eat, since they served us as much food and beverages as we wanted!

Really huge room we had! Were surprised to get two bottles of vine included and coffee in a room. Great shampoo/conditioner/soap. Comfy bed with high quality white bedclothes. Location in heart of Valletta. Friendly helpful staff. Special thanks to the administrator Angelika! She managed to check us in much earlier than was written. Gave advices where to go in Malta. Many thanks to a guy in kitchen. On first day we were allowed to get included in price breakfast, even though we came a bit later than 10:00, when breakfast is finished. Tasty coffee, enough variety of breakfast options.

We loved the hotel, it was on one of the main pedestrianised streets in central Valletta, it was in a great location as was close to everything. Loads of shops, bars and restaurants close by. The room itself was lovely, clean and modern. The bathroom was lovely too with shampoo/conditioner shower gel and body lotion, all vegan. There was complimentary water and wine to drink and a nespresso coffee machine. Netflix is also available, you just need your own log in details. The breakfast was really nice. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We would 100% book again.

The hotel is in a wonderful place in the city, as it's located in the main street and near the city entry. The hotel itself is not very large, it has 3 floors and only a handful rooms per floor, as you'd expect in a boutique hotel. The staff is all very nice and they have sent me a whatsapp before arrival asking for our arrival time to be looking out for our arrival, as the reception is on the first floor. The room was beautiful and big, with a big bathroom as well and amenities.

Location for all restaurants etc in Valletta. Very nice staff. Plunge pool.

Described as a budget hotel, the Osborne Hotel is very comfortable and the breakfast excellent. We had a standard room that was fine, my sister had a sea view room that was lovely with a good view of the harbour and the cruise liners coming in and out, worth the extra money. There is a terrace with a very small "plunge pool" rather than swimming pool and a gym in the basement. There is also a comfortable Bar area. All we could want with friendly and helpful staff.

Cannot recommend The Osborne Hotel more highly. It is ideally situated in the centre of Valetta but not noisy and easily walkable to restaurants, museums, the main shops, the bus station and the ferries. The staff, especially Michael on the front desk, are all very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast is exceptional with an extensive choice of hot and cold continental food and drinks. Our room was a very good size and with an equally good size and well appointed bathroom. The room was nicely decorated and air conditioned and the bed was a good size and very comfortable. In addition there is a sun terrace on the roof with a small plunge pool which is ideal for relaxing after a long day walking around Valetta. And all this was good value for money.

We arrived very late after a delay on our flight and even though it was 1am, we were greeted with the warmest welcome by Michael, who ensured we had drinks and snacks and recommended we visit the rooftop terrace which was open despite the time. The room was comfortable and perfect for a quick one night stay. The pool is compact but a perfect temperature and very relaxing. Breakfast was better than expected for the price and included prosecco! In the morning we were checked out by Dennis who was very funny and also friendly.

Everything was perfect for our stay. From check-in to breakfast to housekeeping, the staff were friendly and efficient. The spaciousness of our room, the amenities, and the good beds were very welcome. The buffet breakfast was vast, delicious, and unexpected. The rooftop pool was chilly, but it was delightful to sit in the sun up there. A small, but well-appointed gym was useful. Great location with many dining and shopping options nearby. If we return to Malta, this hotel will be our first choice, as it's an incredible value for money.

Excellent location, near water / shopping mall / pubs / restaurants, comfortable room and bathroom, indoor pool access, helpful staff.

Staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was great and the croissants were delicious, I had one every day. The pool at intercontinental which is shared was lovely, as was the indoor pool and you can use both til 11pm. The main downside was it is loud outside as the street has club music playing every night. However I knew this from reading reviews and brought earplugs. It didn't disturb my sleep much but one of our party found it hard to sleep at first. But if someone was looking to stay out late or be close to bars it would suit. They do have the radio on by the outdoor pool which is a bit annoying if it's not to your taste or are wanting to be very relaxed, but if you sit away from the speakers it's better. Our room didn't have a fridge which was fine but if we had stayed in summer when it's hotter I would've missed it more- we booked a fairly basic room so maybe the fancier rooms have fridges. Overall I enjoyed our stay and would recommend it for a reasonably priced holiday in a convenient location.

This is one of the best 3 star hotels I've stayed in, it feels more like a 4 star in terms of the facilities and amenities that are available, the extremely welcoming staff, the cleanliness and space of the rooms and the area in which it is located. Holiday Inn Express is a part of the IHG Group, and connected to this hotel is the 5 star IHG InterContinental which is accessible via the first floor, and for a small fee, you can access their facilities which includes an indoor pool, spa and wellness centre, as well as an outdoor sky pool and bar. The area around the hotel, although quite noisy at night known as Paceville, has a wide variety of clubs, bars and pubs with a great deal of dining options, whilst the street on which the hotel is situated also houses one of the island's only cinemas as well as one of the best shopping complexes, making it extremely ideal for anyone that doesn't want to venture very far. The room itself was well-kitted out, and the TV (although without smart functionality) had a wide variety of European TV channels. The breakfast included at the hotel was also lovely and featured an outdoor seated terrace, while the food provided was quite nice. Overall, if you're looking for an affordable, yet cozy hotel in a great location and some great amenities, I would highly recommend this place.

The hotel is located in the most beautiful area of Malta. Has everything you need for a pleasant stay. Fitness room, sauna, indoor pool and outdoor pool are available. Two shopping centers are nearby as well as many bars and restaurants. It is very pleasant and everything is within walking distance. The bus stops (St.Julian and Ross) are only 5 minutes away and are usually not very busy (February 2024). The staff is always friendly and accommodating. The older gentleman (Savior) is always in a good mood and ready for a short conversation. He asks if everything is okay and if we need anything. My warmest recommendation for this hotel will definitely come back.

What a fabulous hotel. Great rooms, very clean, fantastic, helpful and friendly staff. Considering it's location it was very quiet (we were on the 7th floor). Breakfast was excellent and the bar and restaurant had a lovely roof terrace which were a pleasure to frequent. We paid to go next door and use the pool at the Inter-Continental, well worth the money, lovely area, great sun and bali beds and excellent poolside service and cocktails.

We recently stayed at the Ivy Hotel in St. Julian’s, Malta, and our experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality, and every detail of our stay exceeded expectations. The location is perfect—situated in the heart of St. Julian’s, it’s close to everything we needed, from restaurants and bars to scenic coastal walks. Despite being in such a lively area, the hotel offers a quiet, peaceful environment, allowing us to fully relax. Our room was modern with balcony view, spotlessly clean, and well-appointed, offering all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was cozy, too! The breakfast was included in our stay and it was varied and delicious, offering a wide selection of fresh fruits, pastries, and local delicacies, alongside hot options like eggs and bacon. Whether we wanted a hearty meal or something lighter, there was always plenty to choose from, and the quality of the food was excellent. The staff at Ivy Hotel were incredibly attentive and friendly throughout our stay. They were always available to assist with any queries or requests, making us feel truly valued as guests. In summary, our week at Ivy Hotel was fantastic—comfortable, well-located, and with outstanding service. We highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting St. Julian’s, whether for leisure or business.

The Ivy is a delightful escape from this popular Malta tourist area's congestion, noise, and dirt. A block off the main drag, it is peaceful, welcoming, modern, well-maintained, and clean when you step inside. The staff is friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable, nicely decorated, and equipped with everything you needed for a lovely stay. The shower had plenty of water pressure and endless hot water. There were many large absorbent bath and hand towels (but no washcloths - common in Malta). The bed linens were very nice. I wish there had been more pillows, but those provided were comfy. The mattress was firm for my taste and could have used a pillow topper. There was a private balcony with an uninspiring city view. I was disappointed to see an ashtray and smell cigarette smoke from previous guests. The breakfast was excellent, with hot and cold choices. The breakfast room is quiet and comfy and kept tidy by an attendant. If you plan to be in St Julian, Ivy is the place to stay. This small hotel is an escape from the madding crowd on the streets. Also, your budget will thank you; Ivy is a great value. I highly recommend this property.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a hotel in St. Julien and was thoroughly impressed with the overall experience. The room provided a comfortable and cozy atmosphere, making it easy to unwind after a day of exploring the city. One of the highlights of my stay was the impeccable daily housekeeping service. The room was consistently cleaned with attention to detail, ensuring a fresh and welcoming environment every time I returned. The hotel's strategic location near bus stations proved to be incredibly convenient for exploring the city and its surrounding areas. Additionally, there were plenty of dining options in the vicinity, offering a variety of culinary choices to suit different tastes. The proximity to supermarkets was also a great convenience for stocking up on essentials. What truly set this hotel apart, however, was the outstanding value it offered. Despite the high level of comfort and amenities, the pricing was remarkably reasonable, making it a budget-friendly choice without compromising on quality. In conclusion, my stay in St. Julien was made memorable by this hotel's comfort, cleanliness, convenient location, and exceptional value for money. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a pleasant and affordable accommodation option in the area.

We arrived to the hotel early in the morning just to drop our luggages but much to our surprise, the hotel let us check-in to one of the booked rooms, that was more than appreciated :) Perfect staff! Hotel is brand new, the rooms are spacious, comfortable, clean, well-equipped. There is a kettle to make tea&coffee. Excellent breakfast, wide range of foods, good coffee + the lady working at the breakfast room is very kind and helpful. Good location, bus stop are very close (Ross station at the corner, San Giljan a few minutes walk) so it's convenient to catch buses to everywhere, incl. airport. We really enjoyed our stay, we would book the same hotel again!

This is one of the best hotels I've visited. Every request was met with so much helpfulness. The staff is extremly kind and helpful. Room was very clean. We planned to check in before midnight, but our flight got delayed and our question as to if we can check in after midnight was responded in minutes that the reception is open 24 hours. They were extremly eager to please when I changed the meathod od payment. We didn't have a charger adapter so a lady from the kitchen kindly lended us hers. she also helped us find an electronics store where we could buy an adapter.

The hotel is brand new and only partially open. The staff are excellent and can't do enough for you. There is currently a small outside pool on the 8th floor but the real gem (which you can hardly find a picture of on the website) is the cave pool 3 levels below the street in the hotel spa, which is much bigger than you would expect. Lots of hotels have nice little spas but this is huge and the pool is in a limestone cave and about 20m long of which 15m is swimmable. Functioning jets and fountains too. Really special if you can find a time to be there alone. Wonderful and unique as far as I know in Malta.

We absolutely love everything about us stay at the hotel. It is no doubt the best hotel we have ever stayed in. There are so many things to love about it, but I’ll include a few highlights! To start with, the hotel is really new and it is beautiful. The room and facilities are new, clean and instagram worthy. We love the outdoor pools, indoor pool, sauna and steam room! There is plenty of room for everyone to enjoy and never feel crowded. We were upgraded to a really nice and big room, with balcony and sea view. Along with the upgrade, we also got some perks, including complimentary tickets for our family of 4 to visit the museum of illusion, free soft drink from the mini bar during our stay, cocktail experience at the amazing rooftop bar etc. I was at the hotel a week before my birthday and they couldn’t be more lovely! We came back to our hotel room one evening to find Prosecco, cakes and treats for an early celebration of my birthday! They even provided a soft drink and fruit skewers for my children! All free!! The other thing I absolutely love about the hotel is their service. The cleaning team will clean the room while we are out sightseeing making sure we come back to a clean and tidy room. And when we head out for dinner, they come in again and replenished bottled water by the bedside tables. Thank you so much to the team at ME Malta for the amazing experience. We would love to come back again!

ME Malta by Meliá did an excellent job reflecting the fluid, modern style of Mercury Towers, one of the final projects personally approved by Zaha Hadid. The pastel colors, perfectly combined with carefully selected furniture, evoke a sense of serenity and gentle warmth. The personalized welcome details from the hotel staff set the tone for an unforgettable experience, which continued throughout the stay with complimentary Nespresso coffee capsules, glass-bottled water, and chocolate cubes. The garment steamer, hair dryer and hair iron are new and work very well. Despite being used by guests, they are spotlessly clean and I hope it stays that way :) The cleanliness of this hotel is exceptional across all facilities, which is one of my top priorities when choosing accommodations. The spa center, featuring a cave-like indoor pool, is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. The outdoor pool decks overlooking the sea are also stunning, although it can be quite windy at times. The room was spacious, with a large balcony furnished with clean, new pieces and offering a lovely view. All staff members were very attentive and polite, especially AURA Manager Paula Sardon, who was genuinely interested in hearing my feedback to help elevate the experience for future guests. I look forward to coming again and staying at other hotels in the ME by Meliá chain in the future.

ME Malta is truly something special! From the moment I arrived, the receptionists and staff made me feel like royalty! so warm, so professional, and always a step ahead in ensuring my comfort. The breathtaking views from the hotel are unmatched, and the entire experience feels like a 5-star retreat in the sky. The pools? Absolutely mesmerizing. The outdoor swimming areas are stunning, but the indoor pool—wow! It has such a dreamy, intimate vibe, full of character, making it one of the most unique spots I've ever experienced. I was so overwhelmed by how incredible my stay was that I almost extended it for a few extra nights. ME Malta has completely changed how I see travelling. It’s not just a hotel—it’s an experience, a feeling, a memory that stays with you. The definition of luxury. ME has my heart! ❤️

Excellent rooms, friendly staff, very generous and delicious breakfast, with pancakes and omelets prepared to your liking by the chef working at the breakfast table. The indoor and rooftop pools and the gym are shared with AX Victoria, as the two buildings are connected. Both swimming pools are great, there is a superb bar next to the rooftop pool, and there is also a sauna next to the indoor pool. The area is very nice, just a few minutes' walk from the waterfront. Bus stops and numerous small and large shops, including some that are open 24 hours a day, are also just a few minutes away.

Fantastic hotel, in a quiet area of Sliema yet only a couple of minutes walk to the seafront, harbour and main area of Sliema. Our room was clean and comfortable with a partial seaview and a balcony. The infinity pool area located on the 9th floor was a great place to relax, the views looked out to sea, across to St Julians and beyond and in the other direction Valetta which looked beautiful especially at night. There was a great pool bar up there too serving food and drink all day - Happy Hour between 3pm and 5pm served cocktails 2 for 12 Euros. Breakfast buffet to start the day was so good with plenty of choice for everyone, there's no reason to leave hungry. We ate in three of the onsite restaurants, the food and service was great in all of them, especially in Temptasian on the 9th floor (best to make a reservation) the food here was amazing. There is a tour desk in the main lobby, thanks to Sandra for sorting our excursions. On a last note one of the best thing about this hotel is the staff, from the Management and down, the customer service was second to none. Too many to name but thanks to Dominica, Kristjan and Chang at the pool bar and Puja and Julia at the Temptasian restaurant. We would like to say thanks to you all for such a wonderful stay and we look forward to coming back.

We stayed at AX The Palace with our 6-month old baby for a week and we had the loveliest time. The hotel is located centrally in Sliema, 5 minutes walk to the sea front, including the Valetta Ferry, tour boats and bus stops. The hotel was exceptionally clean and well-looked after. Staff are incredibly friendly - every single staff member we met went out of their way to help us, but a special mention goes to Sailendra & Leonie at breakfast and Dominika upstairs at the pool bar - you really made our holiday, thank you! Breakfast was fantastic - options for everybody, fresh and tasty, and coffee was good too. All of the facilities were excellent and well-maintained. The pools are all great, we only used the rooftop pool, which is fabulous on a hot day. The view of Valetta from the roof is fantastic too. Guests were all respectful, with well-behaved children. I can’t recommend this hotel enough. I would book again in a heartbeat.

My husband and I stayed here for 1 week as we wanted to visit somewhere in Malta that had good access to all the major towns and historical sites. From check in to check out, the hotel did not disappoint. We had one small issue with workmen in our room that was quickly resolved in a timely and professional manner. The staff are exceptional - the names I got were Vijay and Ranjan but also several during breakfast who I did not get! Breakfast was fantastic - so much choice and never struggled for a seat. The hotel itself is a perfect 5 star city hotel. The rooms are beautiful, massive beds, power shower and bath separate for us, great WiFi and a lovely veranda. It was very quiet and fab for a great night's sleep. It is close to all attractions, particularly the ferry and boat trips. We used both taxis to get further out and walked everywhere else that we could. Malta itself is very hilly so please consider this when booking. The pool area does get very crowded in the afternoon and again the scene of people reserving sunbeds at 6am, however we knew this is a city hotel and not resort style so used the pool early when we wanted too. All in all we had a fantastic stay, exactly what we needed and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

We stayed here at the beginning of September for 10 days, booked via EasyJet. Sometimes the actual holiday experience fails to match that described online, but not on this occasion. This is a beautiful hotel, with extremely welcoming and helpful staff where nothing was too much trouble. I'm fairly confident that we were upgraded in terms of our room, and although we had a limited sea view, the room was spacious and perfect for our needs. The breakfast offering was vast (cooked and continental) and the food served in the TemptAsian restaurant was superb. There are outdoor and indoor pools with plenty of seating, with food served in the evening by the outdoor pool on the roof terrace. Sliema may not offer much to the adventurous tourist, but it's a short hop to Valletta and there are excellent bus and ferry options nearby. I would strongly recommend a stay at AX The Palace Malta. P.S. Our flight back to the UK was delayed by 24 hours, but the hotel welcomed us back and allowed us to use their facilities (including showers) which we really appreciated. Special thanks here goes to Jawad Zafar on Night Reception.

A really amazing time with great weather! Have no real complaints although the products in the bathroom were slightly inconsistent as to which you received each day. The food options which I had were all fantastic and Chorton really helped to make these such a success! Our time by the pool was superb with my only issue being the depth of the main pool being quite shallow, however the other pools are all significantly deeper so no real issue there! A big well done to Paul for his management of the pool team and pool area! Some of the special touches like the daily watermelon, pineapple and melon slices aswell as the daily shot really helped the experience as did the frozen towel although this was only on day one! Of particular note for me was the nightly live music from the Bridge, my personal favourite was Owyliee and the band for the afrobeat style music on Sundays! This was particularly good and I enjoyed them and their music greatly!

5 star hospitality, large rooms, many restaurants in the hotel with various food. The food is not the best quality but still good. Many pools, there is the main pool with a kids pool and also “the edge” with another 3 pools and restaurant, which is located 50 meters away.

Great pools and food options, excellent location. Some minor quibble with the other pool/restaurant being booked out by another party but nothing crazy. The internal pool was great and the included breakfast was decent. Would definitely stay again.

Spent a week here in July 2024. The hotel is a short walk into the town which was very busy with youngsters. We ordered Bolt taxis and went further afield. The hotel is nice enough - not sure it is 5 star. The pool areas get quite busy. The pools away from the main hotel area are sea water. The sun beds at the main pool are dark and get very hot in the sun.

We loved our large room with a great view to the sunset. Breakfast was rich, with good coffee (however, with one coffee machine only for a such big hotel). Good location, walking distance till the center. Central pool is nice, side pool is with sea water. Unlimited quantity of pool towels you may use is great. The staff is excellent, very helpful.

Nice hotel in the centre of St Julian’s, room are clean and tidy and the reception area where breakfast is served was good and a good choice of hot or continental breakfast. The reception staff were very welcoming and friendly. The pool is actually in on the 8th Floor of a business complex located about 50 yards from the hotel. It’s a lovely pool with ample sun loungers although the pool itself is quite small. It is heated and was never cold during our visit. Note that no food or drink are allowed to be taken to the pool, only what you buy at the e bar can be consumed on site. Drinks were a little more expensive than the surrounding bars but not ridiculously so. About €7 for a beer. Walking from the hotel to the pool does mean walking past a construction site and it can be a little noisy from about 7am but it didn’t really bother me. There are a lot of tower cranes and several large construction sites in St Julian’s and Sliema so if this puts you off, maybe better to select another resort. There is a very large construction site in St George’s bay opposite the Corinthian hotel where we were due to spend our last 2 nights in Malta, but we cancelled and selected the Hyatt Regency instead which doesn’t have the surrounding construction and is a brand new very modern hotel.

Even though the breakfast selection was the same every day, you had some choices. You don't leave the table hungry. The location is great, close to bus lines, shopping areas, various ethnic restaurants. There are also two grocery stores on the street. The pool is on the terrace of the building next to the hotel. The pool is like a beach club, they serve food and drinks - great cocktails. Basic sun loungers (+towels) are free - soft sun loungers by the pool are for an additional fee of €10 The hotel staff is friendly and helpful.

Nice staff. Very noisy in neighbouring rooms, but staff was responsive. I had to call the front desk 3 times about the noise coming from the room next to mine. Noise from street because it is central to party area. Inconvenient that the pool is not actually in the same building as the hotel, it is about 2 min down the street. Nice pool but very loud music all day so not very relaxing. It’s definitely a party vibe. I wish I knew that the pool wasn’t attached to hotel but this wasn’t clear during booking.

The Londoner surpassed all my expectations - it was outstanding. Staff are so welcoming and kind, genuinely friendly and helpful, the room was much bigger than expected, spotlessly clean and the bed and pillows were so comfy. Plenty wardrobe space, fridge and kettle, hairdryer, all that I thought was missing was an iron but that was brought up upon request which was perfect. There's no pool on-site but we had access to a rooftop pool 1 minute away, with a bar serving food...usually expensive (€25 per sunbed) but free for guests, and it was fabulous! The location is excellent, it is a busy street with one-way traffic and narrow footpaths but lots of shops, cafes, restaurants and bars around, we were glad to have stayed there so we had the nightlife of St. Julians within 1 minute walking distance (no noise heard within the hotel though), and the beach, harbour and quieter areas 5 to 10 mins walk away. Buses to Valetta etc were less than 5 mins walk away. Overall the hotel is about 10 mins from Valetta and 20 mins from St. Paul's Bay, but we were more than happy to stay in St. Julians. Already planning to go back to stay in the Londoner next year!

Ok let’s start with the pros.. this is a great location. It is close to some great shopping and has a little grocery store right beside it. The pool is fantastic and the restaurants close by are very walkable. If you are looking for some upbeat bars or partying you have come to the right place and it is just far enough that the noise was bearable (for us anyways). Directly across from the building is an amazing cocktail bar/ speakeasy which I highly recommend as well. Breakfast at the hotel was included and they had quite the spread. Check in was seamless and we even added a night to our stay and they let us keep the same room. Cons (nothing crazy)- the pool is in another building steps away from the Londoner. Little bit inconvenient BUT not that bad at all -the noise might be an issue for some people but it really was bearable for us All in all this is a great spot and location

Arrived late evening on 28th August 25 with my wife. Quick and informative check-in. This hotel has many different restaurants to suit different tastes. And at good prices. Spent most evenings at the Broadside terrace restaurant just having drinks, chilled atmosphere and the staff are great and make you feel special and great service. There were no towel wars at the pool could always find lounges by the pools any time od the day of the 3 outdoor pools they have also you get free pool towels. Never had a bad experience at the hotel. The saff make you feel special and the rooms were cleaned every day. Rooms were spacious and clean? Other reviews say the rooms are outdated but I found our room decent. Me and the wife are definitely coming back next year as we couldn't fault the experience we had. Beek up the good work guys.

Kiran from the pool. Very tidy near the pool and the food was excellent and a very good service and cleaning top and service is good we enjoy full I suggest to everyone to enjoy the pool in this summer kiran you provide everything thanks a lot proud to you share our words thanks see you again in summer very good

We enjoyed a week at Corinthia Malta in St. Julian’s. I have previously been pleased with Corinthia’s other locations in Europe. The staff is outstanding, and the service on site is equally commendable. We tried all the restaurants and cafés, and they maintain a good standard. However, the rooms (we stayed on the 3rd floor) and the surrounding area are starting to show signs of needing maintenance. I would appreciate more attention from the hotel regarding the enforcement of its policies. For instance, there should be no children allowed in the adult pool, and those who purchase day passes to the designated pool area should not occupy space meant for hotel guests. Day visitors can clearly be identified by their wristbands. Another improvement suggestion is to enforce a no-smoking policy by the pools and on the terrace during breakfast. There are far too many smokers who do not consider the comfort of other guests. As a guest at a five-star hotel, I feel that these aspects are necessary for my expectations to be fully met.

3 different pools to choose from. We loved the adults only pool - very quiet and peaceful. Good poolside bar for lunch as well.

A beautiful, imposing hotel overlooking St George’s Bay. We stayed as a couple for 5 nights in October. A grand entrance, seamless check in and a sizeable room with a super kingsize with a balcony overlooking the pools and sea. We were worrried from previous reviews regarding the hotel being dated and the construction work surrounding us. Neither of these were a problem. The hotel was built in 1968 and I’m sure some of the fixtures and fittings were original, but everything was clean, functional and sufficient- more marble and brass rather than glass and chrome but it was ok if a little worn when you looked very close. The building work is behind the hotel so unless you booked a room on that side you won’t be bothered by anything. All foundation work is done and the main structures are built and just filling in now. It’s a Hard Rock property which looks pretty impressive, time will tell. The breakfast was perfect, something to please everyone including a glass of Prosecco should you wish. Eating outside was a treat and the service staff were super attentive and nothing was too much trouble. There were 5 restaurants onsite or nearby fish, steak, Italian, Maltese, and the pool bar. We tried three and all had excellent food and service at a reasonable price for what was on offer. Everything was close by with Silema and Valetta both an €8-10 Uber away. We liked it, would recommend and maybe even return.

Really great choice for breakfast, lovely pool area with comfy sun loungers with towels provided and umbrellas. The pool is smaller than it looks in the photos but a lovely refreshing temperature so is welcome respite from the searing heat in August. We found it very relaxing to spend a day chilling by the pool. Diego was very helpful and we could leave our bags while our room was getting ready. It was useful to be able to order drinks and food while by the pool. The shower in our room was also amazing with plenty of hot water for all four of us! Not far from the sea, shops and restaurants.

Amazing hotel set in an old Maltese Town House, beautiful inside. With spacious room for families, well laid out, two bathrooms, a small living room to relax in. We were really close to the pool and the pool although on the smaller side was perfect for the kids to have a swim in, poolside was clean and tidy everyday, towels laid out and ready on the sun loungers. The rooms were so quiet at night, such a peaceful hotel. Location wise near the bus stops and a ten minute walk into Silema. The staff were so friendly, helpful, would definitely come back here.

Beautiful hotel, the room was even better than the pictures. The pool area is private and secluded, a nice place to relax at the end of the day sightseeing and a perfect spot to enjoy breakfast. Our room had a kitchenette with everything we needed to make a lunch or drinks with a little table and chairs. The kids loved the homemade smoothies and mint lemonade at the poolside. Location is great too, walking distance to cafes and restaurants/town. The staff are very friendly and helped us make bookings.

The hotel Is lovely, it's a historical building in the centre of Sliema, yet in a quiet area, very close to bus stops to go to Valletta and other main attractions. We got a free upgrade with a two floors room, AC on both floors, private balcony with view on the pool. Staff is extremely kind. Breakfast is not huge but It offers both sweet and salty options. It Is possibile to stay by the pool on the last day after having checked out.

Perfect location and easy walking distance to restaurants etc. The bed was so so comfortable and the room very spacious. They provided plenty of towels by the pool. Jurgen who was working nights while we were there was amazing and so helpful, nothing was any trouble for him. The pool/restaurant staff were also great and very attentive. I would highly recommend this hotel.

The staff were very kind and caring. Especially Matthew who went above and beyond for my partner's birthday. He made a special effort to ensure she enjoyed her stay wishing her happy birthday when we arrived, decorating the room and leaving a surprise for her! He made us so welcome and looked after us throughout our stay. We cannot thank him enough! The hotel is spotlessly clean. The two outdoor pools were perfect to cool off and enjoy the sun all day. With the bistro and bar just beside the pool with lovely food,drink and smoothies! The spa is so calming and the perfect place to relax! The room was luxurious and comfortable with lovely balcony overlooking the pool. The tennis courts are brilliant and we had a lot of fun playing together and just a small walk to the pool to cool off! The location is excellent. Close to Valletta and 15mins to the airport! It was an excellent base to explore Malta! The perfect place to relax, enjoy the sun and spend quality time together. This is our favourite stay in Malta! We both really loved our time at Urban Valley Resort and Spa and will definitely be back!!

A little out of the way so bare this in mind (only 5 mins from main town, 15 min walk so we didn'tmind at all). They do put on a free shuttle bus to Valetta and public buses are often and cheap so very easy to get out and about places. A lovely calm hotel with super friendly, polite and accommodating staff. The staff couldn't do enough for us. I have food allergies and this was well catered for, the staff couldn't do enough to help and the chefs often made me fresh food just for me! All staff in all departments were extremely helpful, polite and friendly. Nothing was ever a bother. Outdoor pools open and plenty areas to relax in the sun. Tennis courts if you like that and archery. Lovely indoor Spa with amazing sauna. We wished this had been open later in the evening as closed at 7pm and would have loved an adults only session from about 7-9/10pm. We were out sightseeing most of the day then back for dinner so by that time Spa was closed. Both breakfast and dinner had plenty of good choices and changed daily so lots of tasty variations. Rooms were a great size, bathroom had wonderful walk in shower and shower wash provided. Extremely clean rooms and these were serviced daily and clean towels given. I would request a pool view as other rooms just had a view of a street. Our balcony looked over to pool area and was beautiful. Lovely wee bar to have drinks. Areas in and around hotel very clean. Definitely recommend. No faults! Down to the outstanding staff working here 👌

Lovely quiet hotel set out the way. Hotel was lovely and staff are very friendly and accommodating! We got a free upgrade to a suite which was a nice surprise! Rooms are very spacious and have a safe in them. There’s 2 outside pools and an indoor pool, a tennis court you can full access to, alongside archery and a bit of a ‘farm’ with chickens, rabbits and a donkey on site! You have full access to the spa (expect the treatments) which is fab if it’s a bit miserable outside as you can have use of the indoor pool. Breakfast has a different ‘theme’ every day. But is mainly the same, cereal, fried eggs, bacon, sausages, boiled eggs, pastries etc. they have a happy hour for cocktails which is 241 and the drinks are quite reasonably priced there. You can get food delivered quite easily via ‘wolf’ & ‘bolt’ to the hotel. There’s a nature reserve about a 2/3 minute walk up the road with some friendly stray cats around 🐱😍 You can also walk THROUGH the car park at the back (passed the conference centre) to get to the main road quicker, rather than walking straight up from the hotel(our maps kept trying to take us the long way round). Bolt is the main taxi service they use in Malta, easy to use and it takes roughly 20-30 minutes to get anywhere and costs between €5-€15.

The hotel has nice rooms, a lovely pool, and a relaxed, modern feel. Some areas could be improved, but overall it’s very comfortable for a one-week stay. Most of the staff were friendly, helpful, and pleasant, and breakfast was a highlight with freshly made omelettes and chicken/turkey sausages – a real plus for non-pork eaters. The spa offers treatments at an additional cost, and anything you need is just a quick call away. The pool bar is convenient for drinks, snacks, and food, with a great 2-for-1 cocktail happy hour. The pool area is clean and chilled, with the added bonus of table service to your sunbed. The location is also handy – just 5–6 minutes by taxi to St. Julian’s and surrounding areas. A special thanks to Abi, Obi, Rupesh, Luciano, Samuel, Anthi, Luca, and Matthew for their warm hospitality throughout my stay. I’ll definitely be returning and recommending this hotel to others.

Great hotel, well located (15-20 minutes taxi ride from the airport, 3 bus stops nearby with several lines), professional and considerate staff, plenty of amenities (2 swimming pools, one spa, archery range, massages, etc.). The hotel proposes a shuttle service for free which can drop you out pick you up in Valetta, Sielma and a third place whose name I don't remember. The food served in the "Bistro" restaurant near the pool was delicious. The one served in the main restaurant was good. Spacious room with everything you need (clean sheets, air conditioning, kitchen, comfortable bed, bathroom with tub, TV, plenty of plugs for your devices). We had two problems when we moved in : the flush button for the toilets and the clothesline were slightly dislodged. We signaled it to the reception and, within hours, everything was repaired (Thanks Martina for your prompt reaction). We particularly appreciated the contract with the staff by the "Bistro". The only negative experience we had concerns the spa: the hammam was out of order the whole week we spent there, the sauna took ages to warm up and the jacuzzi could use a little bit more powerful jets. Nevertheless, we still enjoyed the facilities and had a great time.

Private pool with fantastic view and balcony! It’s a paradise!

We had a wonderful stay at Salini Hotel! Everything was very good — the hotel was clean, and the staff were all extremely nice and friendly, even with our two little kids, which made us feel very welcome. Our room was fantastic — we had a private pool, which really made our stay extra special and enjoyable. Highly recommend for a relaxing and family-friendly getaway. We’d love to come back!

The hotel is situated in a calm and serene environment, plenty of parking around for those travelling by car. Inside the hotel is always clean and smells amazing. Our room was situated at the 6th floor Superior Double with Garden View, and although at first I wished for a Pool View, I was not disappointed, since our room was super quiet where it was. Towels for pools are provided from reception, spa and pool decks. Food- we paid for bed & breakfast and the vast selection of food did not disappoint. You will find: cereals, yogurts, fruit, cold cuts, salads, bread, pastries, english breakfast, waffles, cakes and pancakes. Our favourites were the pancakes and pastries. Cocktails at the pools are strong and delicious. For dinner we ate at Vechia Napoli, staff were friendly, food arrived quickly and was amazing. We also got a discount on the bill for being hotel guests. The lady at the spa was really sweet and offered to show us around just in case we wanted to visit the day after. But we never did, since we visited in summer and wanted to enjoy the outdoor pools more. The infinity pool is nice, plenty of shade and deckchairs for everyone. This area is more for families with kids foreign students so when it got busy we moved to the adults only pool on the opposite side of the hotel which is a really great option for anyone who wants to just sit, relax or read by the pool in peace and quiet. No complaints about the hotel. Will definitely visit again

The hotel was very modern and clean. Quiet hotel and location. We had an issue with the room we was given wasn’t what we booked but once we raised this we was moved within 24 hours with no issues at all Rooms was spacious, had comfy beds, shower pressure was great and robes given Breakfast was nice with lots of selection of foods, some comments about breakfast being hit and miss however we had no problems, good drink ranges too and cold juices. 3 restaurants, we ate at the napoli Italian a lot and was delicious with the friendliest of staff Pool was lovely, didnt stay in the infinity one as too many kids but there is an adult pool which was always quiet and always had sun beds no problems with this, bar at the pool too Staff was very friendly and helpful, again some comments about them being rude but we had no problems and they always was welcoming We didn’t use it but the hotel has a shuttle bus to go to buggiba and st Julians, bus stop opposite the hotel which goes to a lot of places, recommend downloading the talinja app Hotel had a spa and indoor pool, looked lovely but we didnt use this

Delightful! After reading some reviews we didn't know what to expect, but I can certainly say we had no issues with the resort. Very clean comfortable rooms and common areas, Great choice for dining and drinking. The resort has two pools which were clean and tidy. We enjoyed the "Lagoon Pool" more as the bar was open and it was generally a quieter, more relaxed vibe. The bar tenders made some absolute smashing cocktails, really delicious stuff. The Spa is well worth a look too, we had the couples massage early doors and felt so relaxed for the remainder of our stay, the girls really know their stuff. The gift shop stocks everything you need including snacks, drinks, sun creams and all the cosmetics / toiletries should you need them. The lovely lady in the shop was always happy and smiling. As were majority of the staff at the resort. The only downsides to the area was the landfill nearby, but to be honest, it really wasnt that bad, they're capping it with soil so I am guessing the smell wont be an issue at all soon. We only got the odd smell on occasion and didn't detract from our stay. There is a fair bit of traffic noise but due to the infrastructure in Malta I don't think its a local issue, having said that our ocean view room was very soundproof so had no issues with the noise. The beds were huge and very comfortable, air conditioning worked well and had all the amenities we needed in the room. We will definitely recommend and will be returning 100%

If you want to be treated like royalty – this hotel is for you. Very good communication before our arrival, and upon entering we were immediately welcomed with a drink. Quick check-in, fantastic view of the bay from the 7th floor. It was our anniversary and the room was beautifully decorated in a romantic way. Every staff member we interacted with was smiling and helpful – Marika at the reception, Jecko from maintenance, the gentleman from the wellness area who also performed massages (highly recommended, super relaxing), and the breakfast staff who were attentive and caring. The hotel has an indoor pool and a gym, and as guests we could also use the outdoor pool. The hotel also takes great care of guests’ hydration – there is a carafe in the room and water dispensers throughout the hotel, where you can easily refill your bottles. The breakfasts were fantastic – there’s a coffee machine as well as a barista who can prepare drinks upon request. There’s also a machine for freshly squeezed orange juice and great selection of food (also vegan and gluten free options). The location is great too – close to many restaurants and the ferry to Valletta. If we ever come back to Malta, we’ll 100% stay at this hotel again.

We had a great experience staying at this hotel. It has very nice central location next to the sea view and promenade. Shopping malls are about 750m away. about 500-600m is a ferry terminal, from where you can go easily to Valetta (2 eu-one way), only 5 min by ferry Reception gave us a very nice room with execellent view. and we have got welcome prosecco during check in. In the room was a very big bed and good pillows and soft big blanket. Free bottle of water, bathrobes, slippers, shampoo, gel, hair conditionair, soap. Room is quite big. Inside swimming pool works until 21.00, in mornings usually no people at all Outside swimming pool is open untill 18.00 and tickets you can get from Reception. Brekfast is good: eggs, breads, pastry, fruits, vegies, coffee machine and you can ask to make fresh coffee too, fresh orange juice, and machine which makes fresh small pancakes. Housekeeping service is every day, which is nice. Free wifi AC could be regulated and made room warmer. Stuff is friendly and very nice, especially reception and restaurant. thank you.

Hotel in a very good location. Close to all major activities. The views of Valletta are simply stunning. We had a room with a side view and it was very well equiped. Coffee, tea, sweets were added daily. The beds were comfortable. Breakfast is very varied and tasty. Spa 10th floor was very warm. The pool was small but not crowded. The hotel also cooperates with the Aqualuna complex across the street. Hotel guests can use the heated swimming pool and sunbeds with umbrellas free of charge. You just need to pick up the coupon at the reception. Thr staff were very polite and helpfull.

Location was great - right on the marina, 2 min walk to the ferry which goes over to Valletta. Loads nearby - restaurants, bars, shops right outside the door. The lido was across the road, pool was heated. Indoor pool was lovely too! The staff were great, very helpful and accommodating, breakfast was lovely too. Good social scene in the hotel bar even in December. Rooms were nice, we had a great view of the marina, comfy beds, everything in there you would need including ironing board, hairdryer etc. Would definitely recommend!

Great hotel, friendly and welcoming staff. Room was a family room, spacious and clean with plenty of lovely touches. Breakfast was tasty with lots of choices, we used the indoor pool once kids enjoyed it apart from another guest telling them to shut up whilst they were in the pool (they were not shouting or splashing but laughing and enjoying themselves ) I did have a few words to say back but it put my youngest granddaughter off going again. I would definitely recommend and would consider staying again.

Reception were lovely given we checked in at 2am, was the perfect welcome. Our room overlooked the restaurants and sea, would definitely request this room again. There is access to the sea for swims and so many activity via the hotel. It was lit up at night which was nice to look out on at night. I don’t know why people are saying construction was loud, noisy or should’ve been told ahead of time, even when they were working on hotels over the road, out by the pool you couldn’t hear them. They didn’t work late or early. So much choice at breakfast can’t go wrong! Perfectly located for quiet day and fun night. Easy to get to St Julian’s and Valletta. Room was super spacious and comfy bed. Pool area with bar was a relaxing space!

Great location away from the main strip and clubbing of St Julian’s. The facilities were great as you were able to use the pools and spa of the sister hotels. You can also jump in the sea straight from the sunbeds of the hotel, which was a lovely bonus as the sea was actually warmer than the pools! Breakfast was buffet style with great options and a nice view over the bay. There’s plenty of restaurants within the hotel complex which made it easy if you’d been out for the day. They felt like they were independent restaurants rather than the kind of restaurants you’d get in an all inclusive.

Great views of St George's Bay ! staff were very friendly and helpful , Hotel and rooms where clean . Good choice of food for breakfast ! Good choice of pool areas when using Sister hotel Corinthias facilities ! ( Adults only pool ) Good choice of restaurants on site ! Within easy walking distance to many other restaurants etc ! Bus stop right outside the door for local buses and sightseeing open top buses !! Overall we really enjoyed our stay !!

Breakfasts, pools, sea. Good location near the sea. Deep swimming pools. Reasonable price.

Clean, room a good size and a choice of pools. Corintha hotel pool for hotel guests only so was quiet. Verdi hotel was a local lido so busier. We had a lovely holiday here and my gripe below is beyond the hotels control but notice would be helpful. Restaurants on site are superb.

The hotel was very clean, exceptionally friendly & helpful staff. Pool area Beautiful with a wonderful view over Malta. Facilities at the hotel very good, Pool bar serving very tasty food from the restaurant. We were not being collected untill 18.00 on our last day, the hotel stored our bags & we stayed by the pool we were offered the use of the showers in the GYM & fresh towels.

We enjoyed our stay here, it had everything we needed for a self catering holiday. Its a short distance from the airport and easy to find. Well connected for buses which ran regularly. We hired a car, parking all over malta is a nightmare but especially around this hotel, it was near a school and the university so we never attempted parking near the accommodation as there was never a space free. We found space approximately a 10 min walk away which suited us. The hotel was fairly quiet, we were on the 10th floor and our only complaint about our whole time there was being woken up daily by people above in the pool area, presumably workers setting up for the day. They made lots of noise, moving things around on the concrete floor which created sound right through into the bedroom we were in below. It wasn't a pleasant way to be woken up each morning. We used the gym which was clean, well equipped, the rooftop pool was also a nice addition but we never used it. The room was clean when we arrived and there's signs everywhere saying rooms are only cleaned after 8 days which we didn’t mind, they provide clean towels on request. The room was cleaned, and fresh bedding provided on day 8 but we left the next morning. We felt this was a little pointless for the housekeeping team having to do it all over again less than 24 hours later. Overall we would stay here again, preferably on a lower floor but it was centrally located and provided a good base to explore Malta.

The hotel is close to the centre. It has a pool at the 11th floor. There was a holiday and I watched fireworks from there. The staff helped us a lot. We could store our baggage. The room was nice, clean and has a cooling system. I had a beautiful sight from the terrace and you can see a sports pool and a skate park too!

We stayed here for 9 nights, room was great and aircon was really good in the room. Staff were friendly. Location is fine but got to be prepared to use either public transport or taxis, wasn’t an issue for us but know it could be for some. Pool area gets very busy very quickly as it’s a small area, pool itself is nice though

Very environmentaly conscious. Clean very friendly hard working staff. The building is very basic. The roof top pool is nice. Small but nice. The area beside the pool is over stocked with tables and chairs, which wasnt an issue during my visit but in high season it would be over crowded.

The hotel in general was very clean and staff were all friendly and helpful, really good WiFi. Room: We paid extra for a Superior Room on a High Floor- we didn’t have much of a view other than the hotel next door to us and the balcony was very small with space for a 2 chairs and table and room to turn around on. The room was clean and comfy beds with lots of storage! Only negative is that due to the walk in shower, even with a bath mat the bathroom floor would get soaked because the bath mat absorbed nothing and got saturated. Breakfast: Nice breakfast room, with a choice of hot and cold breakfast items. We did notice a lot of flies in there which were all over the food- hard to control but worth noting as I’ve never seen this in any hotel I have stayed in before. Location: A 2 minute walk to the main bus terminal with buses going all over the island. 5 minute walk to the sea front and bars and restaurants. 15/20 minute walk to the jetty/ marina where boat trips go from. Pool: Lovely pool area, the pool bar member of staff was a stand out so so friendly and funny! Drinks reasonably priced. Nice view of the sea and sun set, but if you swim up to the edge of the pool it’s mainly just building work you can see. We never had an issue getting a sun bed. Overall a nice stay and we would stay here again!

Nice hotel, really clean, great housekeeping too, nice rooms, Great location many bars and restaurants nearby. Nice stroll to the beach and bus station also. Great selection at breakfast, tables kept tidy throughout Although there was a day that the milk for the cereal was rancid and they just said its because its long life milk 🙄. Nice bar although over priced compared to rest of the resort. Pool area, nice pool but not big enough for swimming due to business of how many people were using it, have my suspicions that non residential guests were using it too, if you weren’t there early you’d be struggling for a sun bed. The music by the pool is a pain, was basically what the pool bar staff wanted to play, didn’t take into consideration of its guests and there was some really random noise selection of music played in what should be a relaxing area, so guests get disturbed from snoozing by pool because of it. Better off without it and just let people listen to their own on their headphones etc.

Room was clean, modern, smart and photo was taken and sent to friends. Aircon adjustable for flow in room but centrally controlled for temperature which works well; a new modern efficient system. Pool and pool bar is everything you need for a good chill and age groups were across the board. No complaints. Breakfast was very good and covered all needs for most nationalities. Reception, bars and staff were top class. Hotel located in ideal position for short walk to bars, restaurants and bus station if you want to travel cheap. I would definitely return to this hotel as it was everything you need to relax. Modern, clean, good service, rooms serviced daily, good breakfast, food from the pool bar is everything you need. Bottle of wine in an ice bucket by the pool is 15€!! Probably the best thing is that everyone was professional and relaxed.

We stayed last week in this beautiful hotel and we were not disappointed. We were greeted with a very warm welcome (soon realised this was the way from Maltese people in general) our room was excellent, beautiful and clean and very spacious. We were bed and breakfast, breakfast was amazing, so much choice on offer, something for everyone, the dining area was spacious and also offered outdoor seating. All staff were super friendly and always on hand to help. We had a beautiful infinity pool overlooking St Paul’s bay which was stunning to look at whilst you relaxed by the pool. Pool snacks and drinks on offer were great value too and delicious. We found it a great base from which to explore the beautiful island of Malta, the bus station was literally a 5 minute walk and buses were very easy to use, we bought a Tallinja card. This hotel is an absolute must if you’re looking for a little more laid back from staying in some of the busier parts of Malta. It has everything you need and more. We would definitely return.

Beautiful hotel newly refurbished rooms are lovely the air con is amazing , free safe to use. We had a sea view lovely in the evening. We liked the sun not beating in on us , we stayed at the front room. Kept room cool. Bathroom fantastic walk in shower not annoying bath to step into . Staff were very helpful , we had a lovely cleaning lady she really made our room so nice . Only breakfast served here but that is what we wanted so many local restaurants around and a beautiful one just across from hotel. The infinity pool is amazing view unreal limited sunbeds but people do come and go all day , towels are not allowed to be left on beds . Hotel likes everyone to get a chance . Pool bar and hot food . I Will be back .

Une belle semaine pour découvrir Malte et ses iles ( Gozo et Comino). Notre appartement à été confortable, spacieux et pratique. Il est équipé de tout ce dont on a besoin pour cuisiner, réchauffer ou s'installer comme chez soi. Le personnel de l'hôtel est très respectueux, très aidant et a l'écoute de ses clients, on a passé une très belle semaine avec notre bébé de 11 mois et l'equipe à aménager dans la chambre un lit pour notre enfant. La proximité de la mer, des bateaux pour visiter les autres îles et des lieux de restauration on été un plus pour nous. La propriété des lieux est tout a fait correcte et la literie est confortable. Mon conjoint et moi recommandons cette établissement pour votre sejour sur Malte, d'une part par sa proximité de tout ( transport, mer, restaurant, lieu touristique, superette...) mais aussi et surtout pour l'accueil chaleureuse de cette famille qui ont fait de cet endroit un fabuleux lieu de repos et de commodités pour les personnes qui sont de passage. Merci encore a toute l'équipe du For Rest Aparthotel de nous avoir aussi bien accueilli.

Wonderful Stay at For Rest Aparthotel – Highly Recommended! We had an amazing time at the For Rest Aparthotel in St. Paul’s Bay! A special thanks goes to Alexej – he is incredibly kind, friendly, and always goes the extra mile to make sure guests feel comfortable and welcome. For our 3rd wedding anniversary, we even received a complimentary room upgrade – such a lovely surprise! Our room was very clean and well-maintained, and special requests were always taken into account. From our balcony, we had a fantastic view – even of the sea! The hotel’s location is excellent: very central, yet peaceful, and a perfect base for exploring Malta. We also booked a boat trip directly through the hotel, and Alexej took care of everything for us – it was all very easy and well-organized. All in all, it was a wonderful stay with great service, a warm atmosphere, and a clean, comfortable room. We would absolutely recommend For Rest Aparthotel and would love to come back again!

From the very first moment we arrived at the location, the host was extremely friendly and welcoming with us. We were presented with a lot of options regarding the activities we would be able to do in Malta. The host calmly pointed out on a map every attraction that is worth visiting, presented the option of booking cruises to Gozo and Comino straight from the reception. Every single time we needed something, the staff was there for us. We highly recommend this place for whoever is going to visit Malta.

Great and spacious apartment. I stayed in an apartment with 2 beds and a sofa which is very spacious and has everything you need, beds comfy, lots of bedding/pillow options. Very clean and tidy. Late check in to collect keys was very simple through a key locker, and morning check in was quick and easy. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and responsive on booking.com messages. And they provide a lot of details on travel activities and restaurants etc.

The room was very clean and with all the amenities needed. The breakfast was very good, especially on the second morning because I went earlier, so there was more variety. The owner was present in different departments and always had a smile on his face and was ready to greet the guests. Vino, was helpful and very friendly and Ana from reception is a must in the team, what a lovely receptionist, always ready to help. From the breakfast I have to mention Thomas and the sweet Sushmita. After checking out the room, I left my bag, and Ana also let me keep my things in the freezer. The only things that can be improved, is making sure that the right information is passed, because when I checked in, I was informed by the reception manager that they would pre-authorize 100€ in case of room damaging. That is totally fine, but I told her that I would need the docket from the machine on check out, with the pre aut reversed and she said that it's not possible and that the money would be in my account in 1 day, even though I told her that I have a debit card so that is not possible. Later I was informed by other receptionist that the pre auth can take until 21 days to be released in the card... Thank you for everything guys, keep up with the good work!

I've stayed there for 9 days. Location is perfect in the centre of all the action, although all St'Julian is one big construction site so it is noisy during the day, and it's also a party site so it's noisy during the night, but I had earplugs for sleeping so I could sleep with open windows, so I've easily eliminated that problem. On the other hand, the room was unexpectedly big and the bed was so comfortable that I would gladly take it home. Breakfast was splendid! Staff is excellent! Warm reccomendations for this place.

I liked how friendly the staff were especially the staff from Spain. She even talked to me in Spanish and I felt very comfortable and welcomed in the hotel. Breakfast was really good, even the small amount of offer made it feel like a lot. (Cute and simple but very good). The location is in the middle of St. Julian's party location. Even though I didn't go there for partying it was very nice to be around this area.

A cute boutique hotel with the absolute most incredible staff. We met about 8 staff members and they were all phenomenal. Kind, helpful, proficient. Breakfast was included and was wonderful every single morning of our 7 day stay. Shower was hot and has modern fixtures. Love the balconies. The area is walkable with a lot of dining options, shops and entertainment. Would definitely stay here again.

Very pleasant stay! The breakfast was excellent – in addition to the usual selection, they prepared eggs in different styles upon request, and fresh coffee or tea was always available. The rooms were extremely clean. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and always willing to assist. The location is perfect – right in the heart of Paceville and very close to the bus stop.

Absolutley loved this hotel. Very clean and all the staff were very friendly. Room was gorgeous, spotless and had a well stocked mini bar, bathrobes and slippers. We had a room with a jacuzzi tub which worked perfectly and overlooked a bay view. The sister hotel was also amazing, and we tried a few Hugo restaurants which were also 10/10, especially the pan Asian one! Area is VERY busy, and is quite loud at night but our room had good soundproofing on the windows which kept most of the night out. Hotel is a few minutes from the beach, bars, restaurants and shops. Only downfall was the infinity pool wasn't in use, so you had to you the sister hotels. We tried every day but couldn't get a sunbed or comfy seat at the other pool. Overall I would recommend and would likely stay again if I return. Perfect location!

The entire hotel was a piece of art! The decoration was exceptional! Our room was very big and perfectly clean and the mattress was very comfortable! The location was more than convenient! All bars, restaurants, pubs, cafes, sightseeing bus stations, etc. were within walking distance (literally 1 min). The breakfast was great with a big variety and the infinity pool was absolutely magical with the view of the bay. Last but not least! All the people working at the hotel and the pool were more than polite and helpful! Thank you for all, we will definitely visit you again!

Before I get into the issues with the hotel it is easily a luxurious hotel with the design, our hot tub in our room was unreal, not the greatest view due to a skyline of cranes but that isn’t the hotels fault. Unlimited access to infinity pool and spa if needed, bed and breakfast is a must as the food is superb. Highly recommend the Luxury Suite with Hot Tub However… The main CONCERNS: • We was blissfully unaware upon arrival we would be charged a €250 deposit? • Our room fridge was fully occupied by a bunch of items we would have to pay for, so couldn’t use it for our own waters and drinks. • They tend to clean the rooms late, we was out all day and arrived back around 5pm and they had only just started cleaning. • The pool doesn’t close until 7pm, although they were in a rush trying to force us to sit on the sofas near the bar in my swimming gear at 5:30! • Spa receptionist was very rude and arrogant, sat on her phone and didn’t even attempt to help us when I asked after waiting for a few minutes for her to come off her mobile. • the FINAL most important part. If you are older (we are both 22 me and my girlfriend) then you will want a quieter hotel as you will not sleep in Hugo Boutique. Other reviews are not wrong, it is the loudest place on the block. Parties every night to 4am at every proximity of the hotel below the rooms.

Elegant room, very bougie,modern and clean, smelled good, aesthetics were so nice, rooftop swimming pool and sunbathing area with a beautiful view was so nice in the mornings for sunbathing, the staff are so friendly and very helpful, I can’t give them enough credit especially this young man and lady I didn’t get the names of, I think they were italian, I wish I did get their names as I would give them a huge shoutout for making our stay exceptional as their customer service was immaculate

Great hotel with beautiful room and bathroom, great pool at H hotel rooftop...with a bar with tricky prices...pay attention, the price on the bill is always different than the pricelist...they had thruble with me in that part,), 50m south away nice bar 40plus, on the other side noisy clubs...till 4 in the morning....location for night lovers

Really enjoyed our stay at the Grand Harbour Hotel. The location couldn't have been better for sightseeing. The staff were all friendly and helpful with any queries. The room was a bit dated but clean and comfortable and our side view over the harbour was lovely. The church bells were not a problem to us and only heard them when the door was open. The bed and pillows were comfy. The room had a safe and a coffee/tea making facilities. The shower had plenty of hot water. The air con was good and quiet. The hotel had a lift too. Enjoyed some time on the roof terrace watching the boats come and go with a sneaky glass of wine in the sunshine. The breakfast was good with plenty of variety - hot and cold. The pastries were delicious. Would definitely stay here again if in Valletta

The stay at the hotel was priceless, and whoever booked a sea-view room and rated it lower than 10, should have an eye check-up! The room was super clean and bright, with a coffee and tea setup. There was one European outlet/Europlug/ so we didn’t have to buy an adapter. I was a bit concerned about a spring mattress bed, but it was comfortable. All employees were super helpful and friendly and booked us a taxi to the airport and organized breakfast bags as we had to check out at 3am. Breakfast at the hotel was tasty and espresso on the machine served with breakfast was great. The hotel is located in a great area within a couple of minutes of walk to the most important sights in Valletta. It has a unique old-fashioned style and it is so lovely.

We had a top floor room and the view of the harbour and the city beyond was amazing. The room was spacious and although the decor was rather old fashioned, it was comfortable. Lighting in the room and bathroom was very good. There was a rooftop terrace from which we were able to get a grandstand view of the main fireworks show- probably the best viewpoint in the city! The hotel was within easy walking distance of the old city centre and plenty of restaurants. We took a fast ferry to Gozo one day and the terminal is a short walk down from the hotel and visible from our room. Breakfast was buffet based with a good choice of hot and cold food- very tasty. The granola was excellent as were the sausages and bacon.

Loved this privately-run hotel. It's a great price for Valletta, especially since breakfast is included. Unfortunately I didn't manage to get a harbour view room, so had windows but no view. I was on the 6th floor, just a few steps from the lovely rooftop terrace which overlooks the Three Cities. You'll get fit here - there are quite a lot of steps up to the main drag of Valletta. Take the ferry to Birgu for a wander around and to see Fort St Angelo. Upon return to Valletta, you can take the Barrakka Lift - it's only a euro each way if buying a ticket, but is included at no extra cost in the ferry ticket.

The hotel is an older hotel but has been updated and is very clean with lovely friendly staff, the breakfast is good ,,we had a harbour view room and we were pleased with the view. the location is good as long as you are able for lots of steps to the centre. steps down through the victoria gate bring you down to the sea level and bus stops are nearby to bring you up to the centre and thus avoid the climb up the steps to the .centre. we bought the explorer bus pass that allows you unlimited travel for seven days, you can use it on the ferry to sliema and on the bus if you visit gozo.

Really nice location if you want to be in the middle of all the entertainment options around the hotel or near the language school ESE. Grocery stores are open 24/7, nice restaurants, pubs, ice cream corners (e.g. RIVA RENO offers outstanding delicious ice cream!!!), and bus-stops are within walking distance. Extreme friendly and helpful staff at the reception. Large room, large balcony, large bathroom and a nice pool and pool area on the top floor. Good breakfast including some fresh fruit. We've come here for several times and we always enjoy our stay here a lot.

Absolutely loved my stay at this property! the hotel was nice and modern, the room was clean and very spacious with the most comfy bed I’ve slept on ! all the staff were so amazing and accommodating truly went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and convenient. loved the rooftop pool and bar area, had amazing views and must I say the cocktails were my fav !!! the hotel is close to the night life but not enough to catch the noise ! local buses were nearby and plenty of nice restaurants! try visit the “avenue” which is a beautiful restaurant a 3-5 minute walk from the hotel with amazing food and atmosphere! Will deffo stay again

Very central. Super clean. Breakfast was really good, amazing. The staff is very friendly. A nice rooftop pool. Didn't get the chance to try the cocktails but for sure to come back.

modern decor, everything you could possibly need including aircon and a pool really good value for money and in the perfect location

Looking at reviews , I was wondering if I’d made a mistake, as mentions of no towels or not replaced daily would have been a big no for me ! however happy to say we had a lovely time, for a 3 star hotel it surpassed my expectations (been in many hotels and normally only go for 4 star plus ) . Lovely room , modern and I liked the urban roof style . Bathroom was lovely one of the best eco flush toilets I’ve ever had (wish my new one at home was as good ) and the waterfall shower was lovely and powerful. Great location , yes it’s up a side street but not as bad as I was expecting having read the reviews. Guessing most room views won’t be amazing , but you are not paying the cost of an amazing view . Short stroll to the ferry port and regular ferry’s to Valletta and short uber rides to other areas so ideally situated. Breakfast covered most items and changed slightly each day , at about 7.40 each morning there’s was plenty of tables and food was replenished as needed . Check-in was I think 2pm which is generally standard and having arrived early the wait was the only negative for us , however of course happens in all hotels . Not really being pool people we didn’t use the pool but it was just a short stroll across the road . In all we had a great time and would certainly return ! (Hopefully get a room in the same area as this time ) looking at next December . Thanks st azur !

Great hotel set about 50 meters up a side street from the main road. The Breakfast served 7 - 10 am is verry good with a wide choice to choose from e.g full English,continental, cerials, fruit ect. All the staff in the hotel were fantastic and couldn't do enough for you . The hotel doesn't have its own pool but you have free access to the lido pool a short 2 to 3 minute walk where you can lay on sun beds swim and get great food and drinks . We will definitely be stopping at the Azur hotel again in hopefully not the too distant future.

Good location, standard breakfast, the pool was very good! The pool is not in the building, but it is around the corner - big enough, comfortable, with beautiful view - my daughter was happy about it :) 20 min by foot to the sea swimming area, a lot of tasty food all around. This is the place where plenty of boats start their trips. Hotel offers free luggage storage, thank you very much for this!

The hotel is on a little side-street, just off the main road going along the front at Gzira, near Sliema. Lots of restaurants nearby. Walking distance to Sliema fast ferry to Valetta. Nice buffet breakfast included. The hotel provided free tickets to the pool complex Aqualuna, about 2 minutes away. Lots of loungers and umbrellas, nice pool and waiter-service.

Hotel was ok…. Bedroom was very nice and spacious. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was huge too. Overall, a comfortable stay. However, breakfast room very small and tight. Too many tables and chairs crammed into a small room. Very busy most mornings. Pool was across the road for which you had to book and get a wristband for. Nice pool though.

We stayed 6 nights in August in Standard Room of The Londoner Hotel Sliema. It was high summer season 36+ C. outside. The air-condition worked very well although the balcony sliding door of our room had a problem with its automatic shutted-down when the door wasn't closed at the right angle but hotel receptions always reacted fast. There were hot water kettle, coffee & tea in the room which was nice. The room had enough space, balcony over looking neighbor building. Breakfast buffet had everything for everyone. It served in the restaurant next to the hotel entrance (same name of the hotel). The hotel itself had no swimming pool but free entrance ticket for Med Asia Playa pools (about 15 minutes walk or 5 minutes with a bus from hotel) helped cool the heat down. It was nice pool next to the beach.

Really liked the room was clean and staff are lovely. Only two things that were slightly disappointing was the breakfast but I think that’s because I was expecting a proper breakfast not a continental. Also when I was booking this trip I clicked pool as an option and this hotel come up only to find out when I arrived there was no pool.

Lovely quiet stay here. Hotel is adults only and I think this is basically for safety as my room was on the 13th floor and had a balcony. Hotel didn't have a massive reception with loads of noise etc and I couldn't hear anything from the bars downstairs but I did have the city view room. What I liked was there was only 4 rooms per floor so you don't have the constant noise of doors shutting and people going up and down corridors. My room was modern with a massive bed and lovely modern clean bathroom with a great shower. This hotel is ideal if you are planning to be out and about all day as there is no pool. My only regret is I didn't get a harbour view room as the harbour is stunning and if you can grab one then the view would be amazing. Breakfast in the attached bar was a buffet style and a decent enough choice. All the staff I encountered where very friendly and polite. Location of hotel is ideal only being a 5 minute walk from the ferry port that takes you to Valletta. I would probably stay here again if offered the choice.

I moved here after staying at another hotel that I wasn’t impressed with. Immediately I was made to feel welcome. I could check in early. Room is large with a big terrace. Unfortunately starting at a wall/someone’s apartment. Breakfast is ok. Served at the pub next door. Pool you have to go to a beach club at the Sliema promenade about 10/15 minute walk. Ferry few mins away. Surrounded by shops and restaurants. It is noisy, so if you’re after quiet, stay on the promenade side.

Located in what others on the island refer to as the posh area. They mean that because of the very high cost of properties and it is an up and coming area with a new designer shopping centre. It’s in a continuous strip of bars and restaurants all pretty standard but either side within minutes are very good places to eat offering a variety The road outside is fairly busy but in your room you don’t really hear it. Fantastic views of the bay if you have a front facing room. The boats/ferry to Valletta are within minutes walk. Our junior suite had a large bed, bigger than a super king and very comfortable Everything else you would need. The bathroom was great, nice shower the only negative part being there was nowhere to put your wash bag/toiletries other than on the edge of the basin, no hooks on the door or anywhere to put your clothes other than the floor. So we had to put a bedside table and stool in there to use so hopefully the hotel picks this comment up. Breakfast is taken next door and was better than expected certainly not just continental with the addition of cooked if you want it and very friendly/helpful staff to prepare something to your needs. So overall I would recommend a stay here, better than its 3 star rating on Expedia. The site also shows the junior suite image as having a double aspect window whereas ours just had a single patio door out to a balcony. The view was great so we were happy. Reception staff very friendly and helpful and went out their way.

We were originally booked into 115 The Strand, but were offered a free upgrade to the new Regional Hotel, and it was absolutely worth it! A brand new hotel with beautiful rooms! It was super clean, and the staff could not do enough to help across both hotels! They were very accomodating and helpful. You have free access to the pool, Aqualuna, which is about a 10-minute walk from the Regional. It is a nice pool, but it does get very busy. The a la carte breakfast was exceptional, and the location of the hotel means there are plenty of options for meals in the evenings! It is also easy to get around the island from where the hotel is situated. There is a small shop directly next door to the hotel, which is handy. We were a family of 10, over 4 rooms, and we can not thank everyone at the Regional and 115 The Strand for everything they did during our stay!

Perfect location. Easy to reach Valetta, sea side, bars and oth. Main bonus is free entrance to pool/ bar Aqua Luna. You can spend half day on the beach and half day near the pool.

1. A delicious breakfast with a stunning view: The breakfast was delicious, with a variety of breads, vegetables, scrambled eggs, yogurt, and more. However, I personally didn't like the taste of the Nescafe coffee machine. 2. There was a water purifier in the hallway on each floor, which was convenient. 3. There was a safe for security. 4. The complimentary Aqualuna swimming pool tickets offered to hotel guests were a great bonus. 5. There is an induction stove in the room, so simple cooking is possible.

The hotel clean, easily accessible. The staff were friendly and helpful, despite arriving early I was able to leave my luggage until check in time. There was an onsite restaurant and access to a pool area directly opposite the main hotel. Breakfast was good quality and lots of choice with fantastic views overlooking the harbour area. My room was decorated with balloons and artistically folded towels and confetti sprinkled as it was my birthday on the day I checked in which was a lovely touch.

This hotel is lovely. It's clean and the staff are all amazing. Breakfast was good, with a range of continental and cooked breakfast. The pool facilities are across the road in which you are issued with a ticket for. Happy hour was also great from 7-9 half price cocktails, on the beautiful roof top bar with spectacular views across the bay

We are on a girly trip, arrived late night, and the reception staff could not be any more accomodating, Tessa the most lovely receptionist checked us in, explained everything, gave us all the tourist info we needed, the hotel is on a busy road but once you close the doors you can’t hear any noise. Breakfast has multiple options and Mabel made sure to explain all the food options, all staff friendly, there’s a well equipped gym, roof top pool with bar, indoor pool with hot tub, sauna and steam room, although on this visit sauna and steam room are out of order. All shops are within walking distance, lovely sea views from the room, beds are super comfy, if you have any issues or need any additional things they will supply it. We would definetly stay here again! 🙂

Moved here after a poor experience at another hotel. The whole hotel is as in its name truly "Golden" with fabulously comfortable views and fantastic staff. All the staff encountered stopped to speak and all had a genuine smile. Breakfast is a 6 star experience with faulous selection of hot and cold food with an omelette fried egg station, special comments must be made to Natalia and also another Maltese lady who greeted you in the breakfast room, they really are a wonderfull addition to your staff and were so very very helpfull and really made the moment go from good to fantastic. Having been visiting Malta for over 50 years now The Vivaldi Golden Tulip is in my certain top hotels that I will return to again and again. You turned what began as a disastrous holiday into a fabulous one. Well done to all of the team there. Also the roof top pool really is an oasis of calm and tranquility where it is great just to sit and relax.

I recently stayed at the Vivaldi Hotel in Malta and had an exceptional experience. I would gladly give it 5 stars! The rooms were spacious, clean, and offered beautiful views. The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. The location is perfect, just a short walk from restaurants, shops, and the beach. I also loved the rooftop pool and the relaxing spa facilities. Breakfast was delicious with a wide variety of options. Everything exceeded my expectations, and I genuinely enjoyed every aspect of my visit. I highly recommend Vivaldi Hotel for a perfect Malta getaway!

This is a lovely hotel. It is near the loud bit of St Julians but you can't hear anything. The hotel is really clean, great pool, friendly staff, a really comfy bed, good air con and really great for the money. The only disappointing thing is we only had a tiny balcony you couldn't go out on and our view wasn't good and also I saw balconies you could sit out on but none of them had any tables and chairs. I would definitely stay here again.

The location of the hotel is awesome to nearby party areas as well as bars and the beach. It features cheap underground parking for 3€ once. The staff is very friendly and breakfast offers a wide variety. Also, the internal pool is great for rainy days, since it's deep and perfect for swimming. The room itself is great. My view wasn't good but that's caused by my rating and internal view. In sum a great hotel it

Very good breakfast. Our room had a very nice view of the pool and the sea behind it. Nice indoor pool accessible by children, and a smaller pool with jacuzzi is available for adults only upon booking.

We stayed in a family room with nice sea view from the balcony. We were happy with size of room and view. the room was spacious, clean and well preserved. Hotel seems to be renovated recently. Hotel has 2 outdoor pool and indoor one. During middle April, some times, it was difficult to use outdoor pools. The towels were provided in organize manner at any time. The staff in both reception and resturant were polite, freindly, helpfull and well-trained. With half-board option, we enjoyed both breakfast and dinner including wide variety of options. Hotel organized differenct activies for children everyday.

All staff are very approachable and friendly, customer oriented and ready to solve issues instantly. The hotel is all modern looking and recently renovated to natural astetichs. Opposite of the sea with wonderful views. Got a large indoor pool for families and a separate adults only pool which was fantastic. The beds are large and comfy and the room was very good sized

Great hotel in an excellent location near the beach and town centre but far enough away to be quiet. Wonderful customer service, hotel was clean and modern. Rooms had all the amenities you needed, great pool areas especially the indoor pool.

Excellent friendly staff, very attentive and use of the facilities even if you check out of the room and need something to do before you go to the airport. (including pool towels and use of indoor pool shower and changing rooms.)

The hotel staff were so friendly and helpful. The location was great..close to all the restaurants and buses to Valetta. Across from the water and had a private pool and beach area on the water. Would definately stay again.

After reading the reviews of this hotel, I was quite sceptical as to what to expect. However, I was pleasantly surprised. Before arriving I phoned the hotel to request a room away from the noise of the ongoing building. They facilitated me. We had a room with a balcony facing the sea. To be fair, there are building works being carried out everywhere in Malta so no matter where you stay, there would be construction noise. It did not interfere with our sleeping though. Breakfast was good. There was a huge selection from cereal, to continental to full English. As with any food though, if you eat the same for too long, you will get bored. The majority of the staff in the hotel were excellent. The hotel pool is across the road beside the sea. It was nice. The staff around the pool were extremely helpful. We didn’t have too many days where it was very crowded and difficult to get a sunbed. The staff at the bar/restaurant beside the pool were so slow with the exception of two of them. However I’m saying that, they were all very friendly. The rooms in the hotel were lovely and clean. All in all, we did have a lovely time and we are planning on visiting again next year.

We loved the hotel room and the staff all round were excellent. We loved the food and its plentiful choices. Only issue we found in room 2113 was the lack of wardrobe space for hanging dresses. This was immediately addressed by the staff with a portable rail which was very satisfactory for us. Biggest disappointment was the lack of poolside cover in the extreme heat. The hotel has been and still is being expanded hence the poolside needs extending in line with development. Building work at the side of the hotel never disturbed us at all. Overall a very enjoyable stay and we intend to return in the autumn.

Staff were amazing, couldn’t do more to help, lovely saltwater pool which is across the road from the hotel, does get busy though so be quick to get a space, also had access to the sea via steps from the edge of the rocks, the spa was absolutely lovely! A must if your staying! Saunas steam room and a lovely indoor pool! Would defo stay again with no hesitation :)

I had a very pleasent stay this time no construction noises at all it was nice and quiet … room where nice … the cleaning staff where kind and very friendly … amazing views on the ocean … only the aircondition was bit to weak … and the shower situation not realy work out for tall people … The poolbar is ok … drinks sometimes a bit weak (maybe of the guests that have all inclusive) … the Poolstaff seams a little bit unsecure , i remember a lot of people having problems with snacks or drinks. The plastic glasses dont work for me when it came to cocktails ,vine or some other drinks in a certain price range. in my opinion the early closing time from the rooftop bar is sad and a missing highlight for your clients … because this stunning view is outstanding and the cocktails where amazing! … in normal ways i take cocktails after my dinnertime 22:00/22:30 and last order was 23:00 or 23:15 ! and u have to hurry up because u must leave before midnight. When i stay in the exelsior hotel the bar stay open all night long.

The hotel was very comfortable with an excellent breakfast. The staff were very friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. The rooms were comfortable with lots of space and the amenities were superior to most hotels we stayed in. The area around the hotel didn't really suit us but if you are young and love to party this is the area for you. The restaurants nearby were great and there was plenty to do with a good beach just down the street. Public transport was nearby and taxis were very easy to find. Overall, a great hotel to stay in. Very quiet inside and lots of space.

Très beau séjour , 4 nuit au district hôtel , le personnel est très accueillant et serviable. Parle anglais et italien mais une personne de l’hôtel parle français . Les chambres sont très belle lit très confortable . Malte est une très belle îles j’ai adorée . L’île de cominos et fantastique eau turquoise plage magnifique le ferry est vraiment pas chère 13€ sur place franchement à refaire dès que je retourne à malte. La vallette est a visite aussi ainsi que la co cathédral qui est juste splendide je recommande. Je recommande un restaurent italien il propose des glaces est café fantastique « « cioccolat italiani »

It was a wonderful hotel at the centre of St. Juliens. You have within a walking distance bus stops, restaurants, cinema, beach, all different shops. It was really clean and your room is cleaned daily. And to be completely honest I haven't met friendlier staff! They were always welcoming and helpful. If you had any questions they were always ready to answer. The bar at the lobby is amazing along with the breakfast that has loads of variety! 11/10 I highly reccomend this hotel! Definitely would be coming back.

Highly recommend this hotel! Its super clean and staff are very accomodating and friendly. Rooms are modern and well ventilated with AC. And breakfast has many options from both hot and cold options. Location is perfect only 2 mins walk to the beach and 1 min walk to the local shopping centre (bay street) and loads of restaurants on offer. Also with Covid the hotel have taken every precaution to keep the hotel clean and safe for all guests. I cant thank the team enough for making my stay amazing.

This is an outstanding hotel, and perfectly situated in Valetta! We were met with welcome drinks, by very friendly and helpful staff, and a complimentary bottle of wine arrived shortly after we arrived in our room. From the doormen, to front of house, restaurant staff, bar staff and pool attendants, nothing was too much trouble. Very comfy beds and super air conditioning made for a good nights sleep every night, even though it was consistently very hot outside. Plenty of choice at breakfast, something for everyone and everything fresh and delicious. The egg station was a big draw! The pool is lovely, with two nearby poolside bars and - even better - a roped off sea bathing area, which was wonderful. Overall, Grand Hotel Excelsior exudes class and hospitality from a bygone era. A big hotel with a big welcome waiting.

Seaview room enormous and superb. The private beach tremendous Excellent large pool and beautiful surroundings. The pool bars and outside dinning were visually pleasing although, sadly , we didnt get chance to experience them until the last day of our stay 6th June, as they only opened that day. Friendly ,polite professional staff everywhere,desk,concierge,porters food hall and seating team ,literally every single staff including the lovely room cleaners,poolside team,all were politely greeting you and wishing you a great day and nothing was too much trouble. Very very attentive Great choice of food offered. Fantastic panoramic views. It was Grand for sure

Luxurious hotel, large rooms, helpful staff, housekeeping twice a day if you need it, tea and coffee making facilities and fridge in each room. Massive pool and sea swim terrace. Pool towels provided. Good selection of bar snacks, beers, wines. Proper poolside restaurant with sea views too. Breakfast excellent with wide selection. Mini bus to Triton Fountain/city gate drop off regularly.

This is one of the most historical hotels in Malta, with a perfect location, just at 5 minutes of the City Gate of Valletta and the Triton Fountain. Since the hotel is located in a lower position towards the City Gate, you need to climb some stairs, but the hotel also provides a regular shuttle at each 20 minutes. Almost all guests are adults, and there are really few kids at the hotel, which is perfect to ensure a quiet and relaxing environment in the social areas ans the pools. The breakfast has good quality, specially the live cooking station where the cook is superb. Hotel decor is beautiful. Personal is incredibly friendly and polite. They make a serious effort to accommodate all resasonable requests. The hotel has 2 superb pools (exterior and interior), both with large dimensions, and has also a small private beach (really small and rocky, but with a very nice view). Most guests prefer the pools, since they are much more spacious.

Wonderful setting. Lovely pools and beach. Staff very friendly. Plenty of shaded area. Great food round pool and poolside bars - all a good price for where we were. Shuttle into main town.

We stayed here for 8 nights and had a fanatic time in Malta and enjoyed being taken care of by every member of staff. The hotel has a rooftop bar and pool, along with a larger outdoor bar and pool across the road from the main hotel entrance, which can be accessed via an underground tunnel. We spent part of most days by the Cala pool and enjoyed great service from Ruwan and his colleagues. There’s an indoor pool in the Spa, but we never used it, preferring to be out enjoying the sunshine. We enjoyed cocktails in the Atrio Bar, with the Tower smoked old fashioned being a highlight. We ate in the a-la-cart restaurant serval times, and there are still items on the menu we’d love to try. The portion sizes were a little on the large size for us, but all tasted amazing. Ashok was always attentive and took great care of us on each and every visit. Breakfast in The Marketplace offered a very large variety of options to suit all. The chef at the egg station was a cheery welcome each morning, preparing eggs any way you like and typically cooking several different dishes at the same time. We’d like to thank the whole team at the Malta Marriott for making our list to Malta relaxing and special. Thank You!

Stayed in the hotel for a week and generally loved it. Beautiful hotel, rooms recently renovated to a very high standard, fancy rooftop pool with bar (second larger ourdoor pool not open in off season), fancy indoor pool and spa, staff could not do enough for you, would defo go back. Couple of VERY small knitpicky things could really elevate the hotel if addressed: breakfast selection was very big, but for me the quality of what I would eat for breakfast wasn't great and despite the mammoth choice I didn't really want anything on offer. When returning I would probably book room only and head out to one of the many cafes and bakeries for a pastry. Drink wise at the pool bar soft drinks were not kept refrigerated, so you get a warm drink with rapidly melting ice that was soon flat. The bathrooms had a seperate huge corner bath and shower, however the shower was quite small, think banging your elbows against the wall while washing your hair. Also there was a huge rainfall shower head centred in the shower ceiling, but as the shower was so small you couldn't step out from under it to wash yourself. My preference would have been for a larger shower and smaller bath, as I think most people would. The rooms have new large smart tvs, but only bbc news in English, and the Marriott streaming process doesn't work. You can however log into netflix on the tv. Finally the hotel is very well located right on the bay at St Julian's, but the road outside is extremely busy and noisy.

Very impressed overall although the first impressions of the 'pool view' room not so good. The pool is across the street and some distance from the hotel. I asked to move to a sea view room but they were fully booked (despite the hotel seeming to be deserted). The food offer was more limited than I'd expect too, and the two in hotel dining experiences we did have weren't great. Basically room service menu at the bar where the chicken in the chicken caesar salad didn't arrive but the server said 'well you've ordered quite a lot, surely that'll be fine' whilst also being almost the most expensive meal we had all week. The second experience at The Villa was very poor. Almost empty yet waiting 15 minutes at the bar for any service, then being shown to our table and ordering drinks and then waiting 45 minutes for a repeat visit from a server to order a meal (in my case a steak which was pretty awful). Luckily, the attentiveness of the staff almost making up for there poor experiences with the pool staff doing a great job, although closing the rooftop bar when the pool is packed at 5pm sharp didn't make any sense at all. Overall, very good experience marred by a couple of silly policy issues and food wise I'd recommend eating out.

Another fantastic stay. Reception were friendly as always and sorted a room change request for me promptly and with minimum fuss. Housekeeping were fantastic as always and do a great job and always with a smile and a greeting as you pass. I used both the pool areas and found each great in different ways. The adult pool is definitely more relaxing and Cala Lido is more buzzy (and yes louder but kids will be kids!). I found the staff here fantastic overall - a special shout out to Daniel who looked after me most days and was fantastic and helped sort out a few minor issues with billing efficiently. The only thing I did find a bit odd is that on 1 day I was approached by another member of staff who asked if it was my kids that were running and jumping in the pool as it wasn't allowed. I said no and they didn't ask anyone else in the area or ask or the kids to stop - it did make me feel a little uncomfortable that I was the only one spoken to about it. All in all though the Cala Lido is a fantastic spot to spend the day and the food and drinks are fantastic and good value for a 5 star hotel. Finally, a massive thank you to Alex the GM who goes out of his way to make guests feel welcome and valued - from a return welcome note and gift in rooms, to his daily walkabouts the hotel checking in on guests. It's really noticeable and very much appreciated.

I stayed at this hotel with my family for 10 nights in August. We had two rooms on the eleventh floor overlooking Balluta Bay, and the view was amazing. I would particularly recommend room 1035 which had a larger balcony with two sun loungers as well as the usual table and two chairs. The hotel is spotlessly clean and the room service is the best I have ever experienced. The staff really are exceptional and work very hard to make sure guests have a great time. We loved talking to Sanju at breakfast who was so helpful and interesting and the man who made the delicious omlettes was also a big hit with my family! Any small issues are quickly resolved (my husband didn't like the way they made his porridge and they sorted it out immediately). The managers go out of their way to meet guests and are very visible - a sign of a well run hotel. My teenagers enjoyed the Lido pool and I loved the Spa Pool. The roof top swimming pool was nice but not that big, and of course, being August, was very hot! Would definitely recommend and hope to return one day.

I enjoyed my stay here for the most part. The room was spacious, modern and clean. However the balcony was directly facing student accomodation and offices meaning going out on it was constantly overlooked. Being put on the 2nd floor too meant that the busy cafe across the street would also have full view to the balcony or the room if the curtains were open. Some frosting/ coverage on lower balconies would definitely help and be an improvement. Unfortunately I did not read the small print on the hotel page when booking as I had clicked the option for a hotel with outdoor pool, saw the lovely looking outdoor pool and area (as the first picture advertising the hotel) and when I got there, it was closed the entire time. I ordered room service one night, my order was slightly wrong (asking for a cheese burger but no cheese was on the burger), that was fine yet the food was brought up with no cutlery or condiments. When I had finished I had put the plate outside the room and selected the light on the door for attention yet I saw the same tray (with food remnants) in the fire escape corridor (as it is quicker than waiting for the lifts) a day later. The gym has the essentials for wanting to not only do cardio but to weight train too which is great. The problem with the area is that there is no free water available whatsoever in that area which, given the heat of the room and proximity to the indoor pool, is dangerous.

Location was great-near the bus station that drives you to the airport and to other places, the beach, the most known party street but we didn't hear anything in the room.. The room was spacious, bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was big.. The only thing that we missed was balcony but that was our fault (when we booked the room we didn't choose the one with balcony).. But you have air-conditioner so in the room temperature was fine. Breakfast was also great, a lot of things to choose (eggs in different ways, bacon, buns, sandwiches, cerelas, yogurt, fruit, croasans, muffins, donuts, coffee, tea, juices, detox shoot, etc.). The pool was clean, everyday someone came to clean it, you also have umbrelas and sunbeds. Check in was from 3pm and check out until 11am. We came early (around 9am) and left late (around 8pm) but they alowed us to leave the luggage and use the pool-that was very nice of them.

Its excellent new hotel, with good facilities. Perfect breakfast. Nice swiming pool with city view. Sauna with big pool are excellent if you want relax after busy day in city. Bartender who do very tasty cocktails. Restaurant will sort you good tasty meal! Perfect place to stay, very close to sea side and night life.

I stayed in Malta fir a holiday for the first time. Did not know it was the night ckub district however, once I was at your hotel everything was great. Donna at the Spa made my va atoon. I got the massage package and she is just a wonderful person and very talented. I spent many hours at the indoor pool and Sauna and Steam room. So relaxing. The coffee shop downstairs also has a nice menu loved the Truffle Ravioli. My room was beautiful and the hotel is just over a year old. Staff were all friendly and kind. I found a travel agent around the corner and booked all my tours through her. The pick up point is only a five minute walk from the hotel. I had the best 10 days in Malta I will definitely be back. Thankyou.

Amazing hotel ! Nothing to say, everything was perfect! The room was very spacious with all provided and perfectly clean. The Spa and the rooftop pool who offered a beautiful view are a must. The breakfast is full, you can find everything that you want. The Staff is so helpful, whatever you ask they will find a solution. They are always smiling and lovely. We will recommend this hotel 100%

The pool on the rooftop was a wonderful place to relax and soak up the sun. Although the bar was not open we could use the pool and it was wonderful. The reception staff helped perfectly with our room requests and everything was spotlessly clean. The staff without exception were all polite and friendly, whether it was reception, waiters or cleaners everyone was exceptional. The breakfast was freshly cooked and superb, a wonderful selection of anything you might like and again, hygiene was spot on. Our room was comfortable and we slept well. The shower was powerful and hot. We would not hesitate to stay again, we had a much needed rest, thoroughly enjoyed, thank you for your hospitality.

We have been staying here once or twice a year for around 7 years now as we have friends living nearby.. The Hotel is family run and nothing is too much trouble. It is very clean and the rooms are spacious and fairly modern. Although this hotel is only rated as a 3* do not be put off. It is well worth it. From May to October there is a roof top bar serving food and drink and the open air swimming pool is already open.Marsasakala is a lovely harbour bay with plenty of bars and restaurants and it is easily accessible to get to the other parts of the island as there is a local bus service that takes you into the heart of Valletta where you can pick up another bus to wherever you want to go. There is also a small beach nearby which serves food and drink all day. If you want something away from the major tourist resorts then this is your place.

The very friendly and helpful management and staff, always ready to assist. Up-to-date facilities in the room - nicely furnished, comfortable bed, very clean and well serviced room and 24 hour reception service and bar. Excellent selection of food and hot and cold drinks for breakfast. Excellent facilities on the rooftop level including a swimming pool, sun deck, a very well stocked bar and a very good and reasonably priced restaurant with very efficient level of service. The hotel is also located in a very quiet area with only a few meters to a bus stop and a very good bus service. In our opinion the Cerviola is a 3 star hotel that punches well above its weight.

Really cool rooftop bar and pool.. perfect place to relax for our first few nights in Malta. Decent breakfast too 👌

Staff very friendly and welcoming and the hotel clean and comfortable. Pool on the roof an added bonus.

Firstly, location. Valletta is the perfect place to stay in Malta, and this hotel is in the heart of it. Very close to lots of shops, restaurants, bars and cultural sites. Plus there are many very good transport links within a 5 minute walk - lots of buses plus the ferry. Secondly, the hotel and its staff were super helpful and accommodating in every way. They let us check in early, use the hotel amenities after we checked out, gave us local recommendations etc. they were also all super kind and welcoming, and always happy to help! Finally, the hotel itself. Beautiful, clean, elegant. Lovely big, clean rooms equipped with molton brown toiletries, towels, bath robes, sewing kit, a safe, complementary daily bottled water and more. High ceilings, good lighting and very effective air conditioning. I would recommend getting a room with city or sea view, definitely worth the slight extra cost. The pool is just what you need after a long day exploring Malta, and the pool area was always quiet with the option to order poolside drinks anytime. If you are looking for a place to stay in Malta, I couldn’t recommend this place more.

It was a lovely hotel. The pool area was good with pool towels. A welcome drink is a nice touch as well as recommendations for restaurants.

My stay in 66 St Pauls was brilliant. I have never been to Malta before, so when a business meeting in Malta happened, I took the opportunity to stay another 4 days there. It is always difficult finding a hotel in a place that you have never been to; where do you go? what sort of hotel? will the area be good? will there be local restaurants around? will the staff be friendly and knowledgeable? will the place be clean? After careful consideration, I chose 66 St Pauls and was not disappointed. The hotel is on an typical Valetta street, long, straight, with tall buildings. A small entrance opens up into a grand atrium. Stone walls, marble floors. Immediately greeted by friendly staff, offered (gratis) coffee, and a general chat. Shown to my room, air conditioning and other controls demonstrated. The room was spacious, well decorated, clean. Large clean bathroom with high volume shower, always important. My room had no views, which didn't matter to me. There are amazing views over the grand harbour from the small pool area at the top of the hotel. Breakfast is the only meal the hotel provides, a wonderful continental style breakfast (including cold meats and fish), always beautifully laid out every morning. The hotel is 200 yards from the main street of Valetta (but you don't hear a sound from the street). There are dozens of good restaurants in the immediate area. And lots of Valetta and Malta to explore. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay here, and will stay again next year

Overall, a lovely stay in this small boutique hotel in Valletta. Service was friendly and attentive throughout and the location was great for access to all the sights and restaurants. The breakfast was excellent with a good range of food for a continental buffet. The owner has overseen a fantastic job in creating a beautiful hotel from the remains of an old palazzo. A few minor items of feedback to improve the customer experience: - the water in our shower did not drain quickly enough and could flood an area of the bathroom floor - the sun beds and umbrellas on the pool deck need replacing as two of the umbrellas (of 3) were broken and there were issues with some of the beds. That said, we had a lovely experience overall and would recommend

This is the best hotel I have stayed in for a long time - beautiful inside and stunning views. amazing staff, delicious breakfast and nothing was too much trouble. Edwin even paid for my taxi from his personal wallet as I didn't have any cash on me. that is service. we will 100% be back to this hotel. the roof top pool is just stunning and the location is absolutely perfect and the hustle and bustle of the city at night time is just superb.

Feared the worst reading some of the other reviews but we loved this hotel and will definitely be back. We had a fab Marina View Room on the 6th floor. Well appointed and equipped with a brilliant view. Lovely friendly engaged staff. Any minor issues we had were addressed quickly. Kelsey on Reception was a star! Lovely breakfast with a choice for everyone. No issues getting pool beds. Towels provided free. Great value in the Spa. Full-body Swedish Massage for 50 mins @€45. Lovely terrace bar overlooking the Marina great for teatimers at sunset. Poolside bar has a 2 for 1 cocktail hour from 3-4pm and service to your pool bed. Indoor pool. Outdoor pools. And best of all, safe direct steps into the Mediterranean Sea at the poolside. Ate a couple of lunches and a dinner during the week in the hotel and they were delicious and good value but there are lots of lovely restaurant offerings within walking distance so move around. Location of the hotel is the best in St Julians. Close enough to the action and far enough from the real noise. Used the hotel shop but local mini mart is better value and there is an in-house ATM available in the hotel. Lifts were being upgraded and a tiny bit slow but no real issue. Some areas of hotel are a bit tired and dated but it is spotlessly clean and all round it ticked all our boxes for a return trip. Well done to all the staff top, back and front of house!

Excellent selection at breakfast, friendly staff and very clean. Happy hour in the hotel bar from 6-8pm was great and prices were reasonable outside of happy hour. The pool was a little chilly in November but still open and it was nice to sit around, the indoor pool was warmer and has big windows onto outdoor pool area and views over the harbour. The sea is accessible via some steps at the poolside, though a little slippery. Location is good, St Julian’s has more than plenty restaurants and bars and is buzzing with people. There is a good atmosphere nearby, the hotel is just a few minutes walk from the hubbub so feels a little quieter

Location of the hotel is great, especially with the pool and private entrance to the sea where you have view onto beautiful bay. Walking distance to the restaurants in a bay or even to Paceville road... Breakfast in this hotel is one of best we tried. Rooms are spacious, with climate control, balcony, big beds. Or room was looking to back side of hotel, but you still have amazing see view, so you don't need to push for sea/pool view rooms. Pool bar and prices are ok, there is small store in the lobby which is convenient.

We had a lovely week in this hotel whilst visiting our son in Malta. First the grumbles: service at lunch in the pool bar was hit and miss as was the food. The air conditioning in the room was virtually non existent. We asked several times for a softer mattress for our grandaughter but gave up after the fourth request even though we saw mattresses being taken and removed frequently from other rooms. The good bits was the perfect location, fabulous pool and ease of access into the sea. The rooms were perfectly clean and the bedding and towels were lovely and soft. Our rooms were very quiet except for the occasional noisy guests. The breakfast and breakfast staff are amazing even though it was very busy. We stayed in the Radisson St Julian’s for two weeks in June and although we loved it there we will hopefully return to the Cavalieri due to the good points above,

The hotel is very beautiful. The view was fantastic, directly to the sea. The personal was excelent. The pool was clean every time, the hot one and also the outside pool. The food was very good, they partially changed it every day. ALso the cleaning personal was every day on point.

Nice staff at the front desk to start . Very helpful in all dealings with them from lost towels of balcony to see shoes left at poolside. Towels for pool provided, too. Breakfast has plenty of choice. Hotel situated central between St Julian and Salima . Hotel is clean , pool on roof top with sun beds

Absolutely loved location, right on the promenade, shops, restaurants, bars and stunning view on doorstep. Beds very comfortable, family room spacious and spotless. Toiletries all available. Rooftop pool excellent, plenty of loungers on different levels (shaded and unshaded areas). All staff, from reception, breakfast area and cleaning staff were polite, attentive and helpful. Poolside bar staff also very polite, friendly and helpful. Courtesy room and luggage hold on last day (toiletries and towels available also) is free bonus. Value for money for B&B (varied choices of breakfast) at his 4* hotel. Public transport frequent, affordable and regular. 15-20 mins taxi from airport. Will definitely be back.

A great experience. Well appointed, clean room. One large bed and one single. Very friendly, helpful staff. Great location and stunning views from the pool area. Balcony too small to sit on, but not a problem for us. Good breakfast. Reasonable prices at cafe and pool bar

We had a lovely stay in Diplomat hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful especially Adarsh we had a lovely room on 7th floor with fabulous views. Bed was very comfortable. . We enjoyed the breakfasts and the pool area was lovely. Jerry at the pool bar was very friendly The hotel is in a great location, near to port and restaurants but not too noisy. We were happy we chose this hotel.

As far as location goes it couldn't be much better. Facing the beach, close to a bus stop, not in an overly busy part of town, but also by no means far from action. Checkout at 11:00 allows for early morning beach or pool visit. The rooftop pool was not big, but relatively deep and pleasantly devoid of other guests.

The location of the hotel was perfect, I’d recommend the hotel for the location alone! The pool area was also great and the pool bar cocktails delicious and very reasonably priced for a rooftop poolbar!

Clean, friendly staff, and an excellent location – everything is close to the hotel, whether you want the beach or the bus station (Ross station is nearby, which is one of the better-known and busier stations). In the evening, when you get from the hotel to Ross station, you can choose your vibe: if you want music, clubs, and nightlife, go left; if you prefer a peaceful walk by the sea, small restaurants, and a calm atmosphere, go right. I found that really interesting because there's something for everyone, yet the hotel is still tucked away from the crowds so you can enjoy your peace and quiet. The staff accommodated us by changing our room due to loud construction noise from a nearby hotel being built. We were given a room with a beautiful sea view, overlooking the pool, on the 8th floor – the view was like a postcard. We're very thankful to the staff for that. Breakfast was nice; you could order eggs in any style, pancakes, waffles, etc. – something for everyone. Clean towels for the pool were also available at the reception.

Friendly staff at breakfast and reception. The hotel was in a great location. A quieter spot in St Julians, but still close to the centre of town for the buzzing nightlife. The beds were comfortable and the room was nicely decorated. The bathroom was spacious in the deluxe room and clean and fresh clean towels were provided whenever there was room service which was nice. Breakfast had a lot of variety and was delicious. The poolside bar had lots of choice and service was friendly and also sold some good snacks, ice cream and was inexpensive. The pool was nice and clean. Other reviews mentioned beach towels cost money to rent, but I think this has been changed as beach towels were provided at reception at no additional cost. Air conditioning worked well.

It's a great option for active travellers would like to get both leisure and activities experience: two new blocks of the same hotel (both are with roof pools, both are modern and Quadro is the very new at all), nice breakfast included, perfect location in St Julian (3 min to the bus station, walking distance to the bay and night life with bars/clubs/casinos), good wi-fi connection.

Great value for money Tasty and rich breakfast Nice rooftop pool Cleanliness (room, bathroom, towels...)

The staff was super nice, they let us use the rooftop pool before our check in time so we wouldnt have to kill the time elsewhere until 3pm On our check out day, we also had 3 extra hours until we had to go back to the airport and we could Still use the rooftop pool - very customer friendly attitude !

Ray greated us very friendly and we were able to check in early Room was clean and bed and pillows verh comfy, Bathroom area in bedrokm but plenty of room Shower hot ivwasnt jern on the rainfall shower head but that is personal choice Breakfast ok but limited Grace off reception was very friendly and helpful Rooftop pool small about 2mx4m With 6 sunbed but sun doesn't really get to that area of roof. Great location easy walkable to lisds of bars and restaurant. A little noisy at the weekend but didnt disturb sleep. It did have a balcony but very small

New and nice hotel for young people, modern design, in the center of St Julian, close to clubs, pubs, lots of restaurants, and max 10 mins from the nearby beach. Nice pool on the rooftop, good breakfast. We had a nice view from the balcony. Service and staff (all of them really) are wonderful, very kind and helpful, helped us with a lot of things. I totally recommend the property.

This is really a 5 Star hotel The rooms are fantasic- brand new Excellent and comfortable beds Showers are decent with hot water It is 5 minute walk to restaurants, bars and beach area.. The pool is small but good for a small hotel There was no noise- I was on 5th floor and slept like a baby I booked one night and stayed longer as it was so nice

Perfect position very easy to reach from the airport, lovely friendly staff. Air conditioning was really good and the rooms and surrounding areas were spotlessly clean. Rooftop pool smaller than I expected but still managed to appreciate it early in the morning when there were not many people around. The free breakfast was a bonus would definitely return

The room was huge (4 of us in Presedential Suit), the roof top pool was never busy, the view from the pool and our bedroom of the harbour was fantastic. The location just being a ferry ride to Valletta but away from crowds with great bars and restaurants on the doorstep made our trip.

Magnificent Hotel For us locals to stay and experience this magnificent and historical place is something special...the building is impressive...the facilities ..the staff..the suites are exceptional...pool area and the wonderful views of the neighbouring vittoriosa and cospicua with the grand harbour are unbelievable...night or daytime...you can feel the rich history around you. Such a peaceful place. Breakfast is scrumptious, a feast of flavours..I truly recommend this hotel..can't wait to go back again..

We had a harbor view room, which was a fantastic split level size and extremely comfortable, with great views of the harbour. The rooftop pool also had great views. Staff were attentive and friendly and the breakfasts had lots of choice. A bonus was the water taxi to Valletta was a few minutes from the from of the hotel on the harbour.

This stunning historic hotel is located close to numerous very good restaurants and in easy walking distance to the ferry to Valetta. Breakfast was very tasty each morning and varied. Staff in the hotel were very helpful and friendly. The swimming pool was never crowded and had the most wonderful views over the harbour. Would definitely visit again in the future.

Fantastic location, small but lovely pool. Great breakfasts, especially the shakshuka. All of the staff are lovely; a special shout out to Valentina who was exceptionally helpful during our stay.

Really lovely hotel, communal areas were always very clean and smelled lovely, I have split my review into sections Check in - Very easy and quick and all reception staff were very helpful and polite Rooms - Good size rooms which were very clean and good size bathroom, the only downside of the whole stay were the beds, very hard mattress and the pillows were awful, like cotton wool balls in a bag! I did eventually ask for a softer pillow and was very quickly provided with a memory foam pillow which was fantastic! make sure you ask for one as they are not standard Breakfast - was superb, really good choice and always enough room to find a seat, wide selection of fresh and cooked food and was all very tasty Bar - One thing that maybe could be improved is the size of the bar and a couple more bar staff, go busier later in the week and they did struggle to cope with the numbers Pool - we only used the outdoor pool which is amazing on the roof with fantastic views, although the pool itself was the coldest pool I have ever been in, in my life! there is a small bar also which was very good, lovely food and quick service Indoor Pool - looked great but we never used it All in all a great hotel and would recommend, special shout out to David who I think must have lived on site, there it the morning doing breakfast, they at the pool bar in the afternoon and then again in the evening!!! don't think this man ever sleeps!!

We had 2 rooms in this hotel; a standard room and a Seaview room, both on 4th floor. The view of the sea from the balcony was great. The air con was particularly good and the shower was powerful after a day in the sea. The rooftop bar and pool were stunning. The pool bar menu was very good value and tasty. The hotel is very modern, stylish and spotless with lovely flooring and pool surrounds. The indoor pool was beautiful and a perfect place to escape the heat of the day. What makes this hotel special, is the staff. Every single staff member engaged with us and seemed to be genuinely interested and checking that we were having a good experience. In particular, Ningma and Thomas were incredibly attentive and Olga on reception was always very helpful. The range at breakfast was great; it was always plentiful and varied. The only negative for us was poor coffee and juices/water at breakfast. The coffee machines did not make great coffee and the juice dispenser didn’t match the quality of the rest of the breakfast provision. Nevertheless, we’ve stayed at several other hotels in Bugibba and Seaview hotel is by far the best we’ve been to and would thoroughly recommend.

Stayed at the hotel for 17 nights. Stayed bed and breakfast. Breakfast very nice. Plenty to choose from. I stuck to the full English. Always fresh. Only used the 10th floor pool and -2 indoor pool facilities. 10 th floor infinity pool very nice. Only grumble was that the same tunes played on a loop everyday. After 17 days I knew every song before it came on. Needs sorting. Great views over the bay. At times the pool did get over busy. The -2 area was always quiet. This included the wellbeing area. There was steam/sauna rooms. Showers that sprayed everywhere. Very refreshing. Staff are first class. Very polite and attentive. Rooms cleaned daily. Once thing you need to remember you will spend a lot of time waiting for, and in the lifts. Hotel location is fantastic. Turn left out of the hotel you have plenty of bars. The only drawback is the redevelopment of Bugibba square. All fenced off. All in all I had a very relaxing holiday. Would deffo recommend the hotel.

Amazing! We loved our stay here - beautifully placed right near the sea and Beach with ample shops and restaurants nearby. The local bus service was also good and cheap at €2.50 one way. The hotel infinity pool with great views was very special. The pool area itself could do with being bigger as it was very busy in August but we went later in the day around 4pm and it was fine. The pool towels are off good quality. The hotel staff went above and beyond to make our stay very comfortable, housekeeping and particularly Bikham really made coming back to the room a real pleasure as everything was always spotlessly clean. We also enjoyed the complementary wine, fruit and pastries left on various days. The pool bar and restaurant in the evening offered well cooked food which was tasty and reasonably priced. The two restaurants next door - Wagamama and Chatterbox offered a nice change from chips with everything in other local restaurants. Highly recommended!

The great things. An amazing room for our special holiday with lovely gifts for us more than once(cake, wine,fruit) amazing pool and views. Great breakfast, special mention to Emilia who was so lovely to see every morning. Lovely staff. Spotless. Everything wonderful until check out. We had a late pick up at 6.45pm , checkout 11am so obviously we asked if there was somewhere to shower change etc after being by the pool all day. First lady said you can shower on roof open shower. Then spoke to a young man who said oh no there's a shower and changing room near the basement pool and appologised. So that was OK, so we thought. We had to get someone to let us go up to pool as we no longer had a pass which was a pain. So we then went to shower and change before leaving. To find no private shower no changing room . I had to shower in bikini and my hubby had to stand by in shower area so nobody came round while i was getting changed. So we then had soaking wet swim wear to take home. We honestly felt like they didn't care after you check out. It was a bad end to an other wise great holiday. Never stayed anywhere else that didn't have facilities for leaving guests.

Absolutely everything is amazing. The staff each and everyone are polite, friendly and exceptionally helpful. The rooms are stunning, much better than the websites can show. The rooftop pool is outstanding, with shade and towels provided, along with a pool service for drinks and snacks. A more varied menu could be offered for pool side is the only thing i feel could be improved slightly.

Staff without exception were delightful and very helpful. Room was spacious and clean. Bed linen disappointing- polyester/cotton and frankly has seen better days- not however as bad as the towels and robes. They were greying , thin and rough and robes were torn in places. Brought to attention of front desk but replaced with equally old ones. Not anywhere near 5star. Rooms overlooking harbour are quite noisy from early morning and in the evenings even with windows shut. Breakfast in hotel was nice but very expensive- although one could eat a lot if one was up to it as the price was the same. Dinner in Little Bastion was pretty disappointing. Cold bendy old chips ( sent back) and pretty flavourless fish with uncertain sauces. And quite expensive tho service was good. Pool area very nice and pool menu tasty. We enjoyed our stay and the hotel’s situation away from central Valletta , but there is room for improvement in one or two areas.

Big rooms with a comfortable bed, shower room was nicely finished. The hotel had a pool on the roof terrace with great views overlooking the harbour. Restaurant food was very good. Things to improve - the suite we stayed in was damp, it had a dehumidifier in it which needed emptying regulary. The pool was dirty with debris at the bottom and floating.

What a fabulous hotel!! Our harbour view room (108) was incredible, so spacious, beautiful views, clean, comfortable with everything we could possibly need! Complimentary bottled water throughout our stay. The rooftop pool was so lovely with breathtaking views overlooking the three cities inc Valletta! The staff were all friendly and looked after us so well, we were made to feel so welcome from the moment we checked in, until we left. We enjoyed drinks in the bar on a couple of evenings, and Mark, well what can I say... he was a joy and such a credit to the hotel. He was so friendly, always smiling, and recommended some lovely cocktails for the children. We were so sad to leave. I would highly recommend to anyone going to Malta. After touring the whole three islands, it was definitely the highlight of our whole holiday, the surroundings were lovely to walk around. Beautiful restaurants nearby, plus water taxis to take you into the amazing city of Valletta!!! What a lovely experience that was. 10/10

Spent my 40th birthday here with husband and 6 month old baby - beautiful property, the room was perhaps a little damp smelling initially with all the exposed stonework but they brought a dehumidifier into the room straight away to help and it was sorted. The staff were so so friendly, could.not have been more helpful with the baby and were so kind and attentive and made us feel so welcome. The rooftop pool is pretty chilly but that didn’t matter - think of it as ultimate refreshment in the warm weather! Breakfast was delicious and not at all restricted - order whatever you like, good portions and fabulous fresh Orange juice. Area is lovey to walk around at night by the harbour - great restaurants, easy quick ferry ride over to Valletta. Everything about this hotel was perfect and I would recommend it to anyone. Friendly Maltese hospitality at its finest - in a beautifully restored historical building - you are in for a real treat!

Breakast was plentiful and replenished regularly...View exceptional. Room was cleaned daily....Towels changed daily.. No request was too much trouble. Wonderful pleasant and friendly staff...No moody or grumpy staff during my 4 day stay. Hotel very c!ose to bus station and port.

Breakfast was ample and on the 5th floor, probably one of the highest points in Valletta. Staff were very knowledgeable about the area and helpful. The location can't be beat..a short walk to the bus terminal and to the gardens. For fun, we took a horse and buggy ride around the perimeter of Valletta from the square where the hotel is located

The hotel is a gem in the old city, very close to most of the attractions or to the connections for the rest. The building’s age and setup takes you back in history, it’s charming and comfortable. The top-floor breakfast with this view was the perfect finish. Would definitely love to stay in this hotel again.

The location was perfect, the breakfast was diverse and on top of that the view from the terrace of the restaurant was astonishing. Also all the staff were very polite, friendly and helpful. I would totally recommend this hotel also because it is very close to the bus terminus which makes it convenient to further exploring of the country.

I liked the location but above all I liked the staff for their courtesy & willingness to assist us with our inquiries. The staff Marc & the older gentleman were by far the best! The older gentleman in the reception had a very good sense of humour!!! I definitely would like to stay again in Hotel Castille next time!!!

The staff went above and beyond every time we spoke with someone. The team at the front desk were kind and welcoming upon arrival. We had an issue with our room (nobody’s fault these things happen) and within the hour we had been moved and everything was perfect again. I have the manager to thank for this. Special thanks to Martin who we will never ever forget. It was a privilege to meet him every morning at breakfast. He is such a great character and we are so grateful to have met someone so good at their job and cheerful on our travels. He is a ray of sunshine. Other than this, the rooms were very clean and well maintained by housekeeping each day. The location was fantastic. Food was also great at breakfast, I cannot understand any negative reviews about breakfast as there was such good option. By partner is a coeliac and they catered for him every day.

We had a fantastic week's stay in a comfortable room. The room was cleaned on request very reliably. Breakfasts were varied, even delicious cakes were every day. The hotel staff were polite and helpful, excellent organization with picking up and leaving keys outside reception hours. Warmest greetings to the gentleman who greeted us every day for a tasty breakfast. Excellent location of the hotel, you can get everywhere by bus. Thank you for your work, we will recommend this hotel to friends. Best regards. Teresa & Roman

It is an incredible place with amazing breakfast. The rooms are spacious and nicely furnished, offering a perfect blend of comfort and style. The staff is exceptionally friendly and always willing to help, making the stay even more enjoyable. The hotel is also ideally located, close to many attractions and restaurants, making it easy to explore the area. I will surely be there again, as it's not just a stay but an unforgettable experience.

The location is great, there is a lot of store nearby. You can go to the hotel by bus, easy to find. The staff is really nice. The breakfast was good, on our last morning we got a breakfast package as it was too early, so it is really thoughtfull from the Hotel. The room was big enough and liked the view to the street.

-our room was big enough -the hotel is situated in the central area of St. Julian -friendly staff -the bus stop is just outside the hotel -you can have your breakfast between 7 and 10 -if you will miss your breakfast they will give you something to take away -the staff was not upset that we arrived late and left early

JL Hotel is in an excellent position in St. Julian's. It is a few steps away from all the night activities, Mercury tower, shopping, necessities, bus stops and even a rocky beach. I love how it offers peace in such a busy place. Once you get there, you will understand. Continental breakfast is aprpeciated, consistent and staff are pretty nice. The pool is cute, good for an early swim and sun bathing or even at sunset time. Just be ready to carry your luggage on a few flight of stairs to get on the reception. I love that they offer you support and help your requests. Would recommend! :)

The hotel, the stuff, breakfast and all experience in general was very pleasant. It close to everything, takes not more than 30 min to go over the whole island. Very nice and helpful stuff, rooms are clean, bar downstairs and beautiful view from the last floor where we enjoy our breakfast and pool. Very nice breakfast, also vegan options provided. Very nice experience, for sure will come back if will visit Malta again.

Cleanliness, location, amenities kit, good selection of breakfast (included in the price), friendly staff, nice rooftop terrace with a restaurant area. There is also a small pool, but we did not use it.

Nice and modern hotel at a great location. Amazing rooftop restaurant and pool with a view on the Mediterranean sea. Kind recommendation for upcoming guests.

Its well placed and was pretty much easy to get around from. Clubs/Bars just up the hill with more dotted around. Plenty of dining options around St Julian too, all easy enough to walk to. The room was excellent, spacious and came with a balcony. This was extremely useful come the evening when wanting to relax. The bed was firm, but not overly which for me was perfect as it was. Only down side I could find was the in-room hairdryer was basicslly ineffective - Made noises and smelt of burning when used but no actually abilty to use (only found out at 1am when no one was around shortly before i was leaving for a early flight). The air con seemed locked at 22 degrees also, no idea how to change it. Other than those, the stay was enjoyable, comfortable and definitely will consider staying again

Dear Shoreline Team, We wanted to extend our heartfelt thanks for the truly wonderful stay we had at your hotel. Everything — from the ambiance to the attention to detail — exceeded our expectations. A very special thank you to Goran and Anna, who went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. Their warmth, professionalism, and exceptional service truly stood out and made us feel at home. It was a pleasure to be your guest, and we are already looking forward to returning in the future. With gratitude and warm regards,

The hotel was located in the heart of St Julian party area, of course from time to time we could hear some party noise but it was bearable, we stayed there for 4 nights. The staff was super friendly, breakfast had nice variety of meals, our room had balcony with sea view and beds were comfortable. There was also a housekeeping service provided on a daily basis. Perfect price, too. Highly recommended.

Shoreline Hotel was excellent. The staff couldn’t have been nice, when I discovered that they weren’t running any AC in the winter season, the front desk clerk still brought me a huge fan. A lot of restaurants and beach shops line the street, and is a wonderful laundromat just 150’ from the hotel’s front door.

Great hotel , cool area and close to the centre. I really enjoyed my stay . The room was clean and fresh. I can recommend this hotel to everyone who is looking for accommodation in the city . Also I would like to mention the friendly and helpful staff . Especially big thanks to Anna ( manager) and Goran ( receptionist) .

The location is simply phenomenal, the pool is lovely and the staff were so sweet and kind. This is my second time staying at this hotel and I loved it all over again! The room was quiet and spacious, breakfast was tasty and great that there are so many cafes nearby also. The view from the pool is so gorgeous over St. Paul's bay, and it's easy to get to Gozo from the hotel (as well as everywhere else!)

Perfect location with best view I saw in Malta over the pool and harbour to St Paul's islands and the sea, close to bus and boat trips. Very nice and comfortable pool area. Nice food.

Room had a large balcony with a lovely view and sun loungers were a great unexpected addition. Nice pool, never had trouble getting a sunlounger. Had an issue with our room which was rectified quickly by maintenance. Lido was also a great addition right on the door step.

View was amazing! Location was perfect, Hotel was a 10/10 in all ways including the staff. Room was clean and Pool was beautiful, walking distance to a town square and little streets to wander around. Felt completely safe as well, traveling 2 females!

I chose the hotel just because I wanted to see the old capital of Malta on the occasion of my one-night business trip to the island. Both the capital city of Valletta and the airport can be reached from there in less than 30 mins by taxi, or more or less one hour (Valletta in 45 mins) by frequent and cheap public transport. The Quaint hotel is situated on a pedestrian street in the heart of the otherwise quiet village of Rabat, only a few hundred meters from Mdina's main gate. Not only the location, but the hotel itself was more than satisfying: spacious, nice modern design room, very clean and indeed looking new, a copious English breakfast (plus a continental one, if you wish) served in the restaurant next door, free wifi... The reception operates from 8am to 2pm, but it creates no problem at all, as you can open the main door using a code, and 24/7 phone assistance is also available. All in all, a great place to stay while visiting one of Malta's top must-sees.

Adelphi was an amazing experience from the 1st minute we stepped in till the last one until we left. The staff was welcoming and very helpful in any way. Room exceeded my expectations. superbly clean room all over and comfortable bed. Location of hotel is in a very quite street and although the hotel provided the facility of restaurant for everyone, we weren't disturbed by any noise. Every morning we were welcomed for breakfast with a selection of cold cuts and cereals and more, to top that one could choose a breakfast from their menu, this contributed to the fact that breakfast was cooked and done at that moment providing the freshness one could wish for. Over all i can rate Adelphi Boutique hotel one of the most pleasurable places i ever stayed.

The breakfast was amazing ! We could choose in the menu and the dishes were prepared to order, and there were tasty pastries we could choose. There's a rocking chair in the room, which I really enjoyed. The room was clean and the bed was good. The check and check out was really easy. In the evening there's a bit of noise because there's a restaurant downstair the hotel. And in the morning if you are a nature person, you can hear the brids' singing to your ears, which could be a bother for people with a light sleep. Overall, it was a really nice stay in this familial boutique hotel !

Outstanding little boutique hotel right in heart of Rabat. Seems to be fairly newly opened so hopefully they will Keep It well Maintained and price it fairly! We loved it and will use this place every time we Come back! Food was nice in restaurant, 2 min walk to mdina, safe and secure.. Friendly staff and Couldn't ask for any more! My wife is maltese so we visit family alot from Ireland and struggle to find a good value places but this was outstanding! Really nice decor, close to rabat/mdina with buses to Valetta etc if u want... Excellent!

The room was lovely and really enormous, with a large double bed and a big area behind it with a sofa plus a quite substantial balcony. It also had a huge bath with shower. The location is quiet in a pedestrian zone, there is also a restaurant in the same building (altho I didn't use it). Altho it is quite difficult to find as Google maps doesn't take you to the right place (as usual), I phoned the hotel and somebody immediately came out to me where I had parked the car and guided me to the hotel.
