Lock in a great price for Grand Hotel Excelsior – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

A beautiful hotel with a great view. The pool area, lobby bar and rooms are really nice. A short walk into Valletta. I wish I could have stayed longer. Hopefully next time.

Jan, Finland

The location is perfect (walking distance from the center, but not noisy at all), the staff is very friendly and respectful, good spa, reliable services.

Nov2018, France

The hotel was located perfectly. The staff was very friendly.

Thomas, Germany

Great location next to the Valetta main gate, with easy access to public transportation and taxis. Spacious room with pool and partial sea view, and furnished balcony. Friendly staff, ready to assist in meeting guest needs, advising upon various landmarks to visit. Big and diverse breakfast blending local, regional and international taste. Live music at Harbour Bar was very entertaining and relaxing, with an interesting selection of teas. Variety of traditional cuisine (Indian, Asian, Maltese) available as buffet dinner was interesting. TIKI Village a pleasant surprise with good bites and choice of drinks. Airport transfer prompt, smooth and polite.

Gabriel, Romania

The surprise of the gifts upon entry to the room , since it was the anniversary of my parents

Stephanie, Malta

The staff were brilliant - nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was really good, although on some occasions we had it on the 5th floor which was much more relaxed than the 4th. The hotel is located close to Valletta - an easy walk even when the temperature was in excess of 30deg. We had the opportunity to see Valletta in the evenings when it is truly spectacular. We would recommend the Grand Excelsior to anyone.

Dave, United Kingdom

The location was great (despite the steep hike from the hotel entrance to the gates of Valletta) and the facilities such as the pool, private beach area and bars/restaurants were attractive and spacious enough to be easily able to cope with the guests.

Peter, United Kingdom

Great breakfast buffet. Excellent location right outside the walls of Valletta with very easy access. Great pool and small sandy beach area with access to the water. Family room was very large consisting of two separate sleeping rooms, two bathrooms and large dressing area.

Geert, United States of America

Big room good for 3 people. Nice swimming/spa area. Walking distance from Valetta and central busstation.

Jeremy, Netherlands

Great breakfast buffet! Nice BBQ buffet. Helpful concierge.

“The staff were brilliant - nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was really good, although on some occasions we had it on the 5th floor which was much more relaxed than the 4th. The hotel is located close to Valletta - an easy walk even when the temperature was in excess of 30deg. We had the opportunity to see Valletta in the evenings when it is truly spectacular. We would recommend the Grand Excelsior to anyone.”

Dave

“The location was great (despite the steep hike from the hotel entrance to the gates of Valletta) and the facilities such as the pool, private beach area and bars/restaurants were attractive and spacious enough to be easily able to cope with the guests.”

Peter

“Great breakfast buffet. Excellent location right outside the walls of Valletta with very easy access. Great pool and small sandy beach area with access to the water. Family room was very large consisting of two separate sleeping rooms, two bathrooms and large dressing area.”

The two elevators were crowded in the morning. I like to use the stairs which were hard to find.
A beautiful hotel with a great view. The pool area, lobby bar and rooms are really nice. A short walk into Valletta. I wish I could have stayed longer. Hopefully next time.

I was given a twin bedroom despite wanting a king double. The bedroom was very tired looking and had no view at all. I had stopped here earlier in the year and had a decent room with a good view, which is why I rebooked. The hotel was fairly empty and so there should have been availability.
A good location

Breakfast was disorganised, good food but long wait for eggs,omelette, tea was cold and waitress argued that it wasn’t, slow clearing tables.
Location and ambiance : room very comfortable and spotless, pool areas very good and staff welcoming, airport transfer excellent

The breakfast was average. The sheets, pillows and towels were dirty. I ordered to change some. I think that hotel administration should make more attention on cleanliness. Because it’s most important thing in hotel.
Very good location, very very friendly staff, very good SPA, special thanks to Therapist Diana:)

Hotel is very tired and needs a face lift. External decoration is poor, internally it’s clean but very tired. The gym equipment is old and some machines are rusty. The indoor pool is large but looks old.
Beds were great, location excellent
