Holiday Inn Express Malta by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, great breakfast."

115 The Strand Hotel by NEU Collective

10/10 Excellent

"Superlatives! It's the tiny block tucked in between hotels. Budget friendly and centralized. Boundary of Sliema/Gzira. Great view of Valletta Cityline. Staff are friendly, great breakfast to start your day, swift response to fix issues in the room. Very reliable hotel. Clean and organized. Wish there are more hooks on the walls to put or hang our things. If you don't have a balcony in your room, you can go to Level 9 to capture the waterfront view. Access to Aqua Luna is a plus! Make sure to allot time for swimming and enjoy the poolside with fantastic waterfront view. They are only open from 10am to 6pm. Great for long term stay - we stayed from Oct31-Nov6 (7days/6nights). We will definitely return and recommend 115 Strand Hotel! Thank you!"

Ramla Bay Resort

10/10 Excellent

"A great hotel away from the bustle of other areas but great for ferry travel and boat trips, including some of the best spots for snorkelling. The food was good, staff were very helpful with everything we asked. The hotel has a number of bars you can flick through with the various happy hours which is great. The private beach and snorkelling/swimming area is great!"

Azur Hotel by ST Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and comfortable and was serviced every day. The staff were courteous and friendly and helpful in all enquiries, resolving all issues to satisfaction. Breakfast was varied and very good though it is quite busy. The balcony was very welcome as it was still very warm in October. All is all, a very pleasant stay and will probably return again as teh amenities around the hotel are excellent"

The St George Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"We stayed in October as a family of 2 adults and 1 one year old. We knew the hotel was right in the centre of a buzzing nightlife area and expected some noise, but we couldn't hear anything from outside the hotel! Up until about midnight, the sound of people returning from nights out was loud inside the hotel as the hallways are tile and not carpeted - again we expected this, and can't be helped with the hotels location - but do consider if you have kids. The room was spacious with a double bed and 2 singles. We needed a cot which arrived within 15 minutes of asking reception. The bathroom was functional but had a couple of small maintenance issues. The balcony was huge and had two sunbeds. Reception staff were pleasant and efficient. Pool area was clean and had plenty of space. Located right on top of ample bars, cafes and souvenir shops. Bus stops for main attractions and direct buses to airport only a few minutes walk too. 10 minutes walk to St George's bay, if that. No frills stay, which we expected but we paid very little so would stay again if we needed somewhere cheap, clean and well connected! Excellent if you want lots of food/drink options around you."
