Hotel Fortina

Mostly I liked the location of the hotel, situated near the dead end of the street. As a result there was very little night traffic and chance to get a proper sleep at night.

Double bed in the room were two beds moved together. Those who know can imagine what it means, some discomfort may happen.

Superb position and facilities together with value for money. I fully recommend this hotel.

The reception area was fairly basic for the quality of this Hotel.

The hotel does not offer 4 stars services and the people at the at the reception are the most unhelpfull you can think of: they wanted us to double pay 1 room, because they did not find their copy of our deposit (Please note that we were a party of 12, and 5 rooms were already totally paid) ; they did not know , or did not want to tell us, where one of the most important squares of Valletta was (we were looking for a restaurant (Malata) - that we can reccomend - and breakfast had a very limited choice. Meant for English people only. No cakes, crossants and not even with warm milk! Rooms are modern with basic comfort - no thrills. Bathrooms are clean but need to be renovated.

Nice hotel in a great location. Incredible view across harbour to Valetta. Close to shopping and rather quiet nightlife. About 3 km from the busier St Julians with it's bar and club scene. Buffet breakfast was great. Most guests were elderly.

Reception staff looked like they wished they were elsewhere. Toilet in room wouldn't flush properly. My room was next to lift so woken early by people talking outside but not major problem. No maps of area. No info about local bars and restaurants.

Nice location, good transport connections and hotel services...

I made reservation for the see view, but in the end I was looking the city roofs. That was something that disappointed me a lot. The price was the same. There is no enough places for parking. You must have some hotel tickets not to pay parking in front of the hotel.

Location was just perfect, close to the ferry to valletta, close to shopping district in sliema

Room was very small (114), bed mattress was in very bad condition, noisy in the mornings when all guest pass it on the way to the lifts (small and slow), housekeeping likes to 'move' things and put them where she wants them to be, breakfast every day same choice, spa next door is very expensive we pay less in our back home in wimbledon, london

The variety of food options

Lack of washing dispensers in ensuite, had to ask three times for a cot

Front of the 4star hotel has view of Valletta fortifications, good evening promenade along harbour coast, 4 pools and the restaurants are shared with 5star resort&spa hotel. Rooms are spacious, buffet breakfast has variety and good food. 5 minute walk to buses for other towns, harbour cruises and some shopping.

Seaview could be harbour view (highly preferable) or from the back of hotel, a strip of sea at the horizon above newly built or being built buildings and view is through half a dozen construction cranes. There was a waterleak in the hall of our floor near light fixtures, we were told they had somebody fixing it. We worried about eletrical problems all night and woke up to drenched floor carpets, walls and cielings. In the morning water was still dripping from cieling. Happy to check out. Light fixture fell from the cieling near elevator missing me by one step forward. Furniture in one room was old (from the 80s) and mattresses was springy and squeeky, toilet seat yellow with age. Minimal TV stations.

the upgraded room was spacious and a brilliant view over the garden, the salt water swimming pool aided the lesser swimmer

slow lifts, food and drinks expensive

Hotel Fortina is selling a product thay don´t have. We booked a room there because we checked the web, and there we found pictures of beutiful new and clean rooms. When we arrived there, we faced the truth: a dirty, old, small, and smelly room.

Great view over the harbour and La Valetta. Quiet location and kind staff

Elevators doesn't work properly we had to use the staff elevator once and again. Furnishement and facilities are a bit out of date.

the place, near to Valetta (10 min bus or ferry) and the view form the room.The hotel also has two nice swimming pools and a nice garden.The staff was very polite and helpful

The furniture and decoration of the standard rooms is oldish, the bathroom is tiny and the ceiling (in the bathroom) had some strange spots (probably humidity).The superior rooms looked nicer, bigger and their furniture and decoration was nicer but these rooms are more expensive.

Wonderful view over creek and Valletta
