Aikaterini, Germany

Enjoyed a two night stay, on our way to Sicily. Very clean. Excellent staff. Hope to return.

Irene, Ireland

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.

It took me a while to get waiter's attention to get coffee, even there was no crowd and they were not particularly busy. It was only after a colleague of mine called, that they responded, which seemed a bit gender biased :)
The room offers all the comforts a business traveler needs. Service is efficient and facilities nice. the choice of food for breakfast was very good.

“A decent hotel in a good position for Valletta,”

Having to sign so may times for charges, upgrade to Executive card charge for 2 days Euro120, Room charge Euro320, card charge again......sign, Food deposit Euro100 card charge sign again, sign for room key, sign for room registration, how many signatures do you want ? Then to be told if you don't return the key card Euro5.00 will be charged. Don't forget, now I have to check and make sure deposit charges etc. are refunded which takes up to 14 days ! Who has time or inclination to remember to do this ?
When factoring in the FREE parking, value for money is good as it could cost up to Euro25 or more to park overnight, The reception staff are friendly but they need a little more personality and don't forget to smile.

“Overall enjoyed our 4 night stay in January”

Went to restaurant one evening and had the buffet.It was dire apart from the puddings which were to die for the starter and main course were about motorway standard To use the indoor pool which was large and although shallow you could swim in you had to go down in your bathrobe since you were not allowed to use the changing rooms [for spa members only]Also meant could not use sauna or steamroom
We booked a harbour view room which was fantastic.Lovely view of harbour very large balcony and good sized bedroom and bathroom Staff very attentive and helpful Nice indoor pool

- Would need some renovation, especially in bathroom/toilet.
+ Great location - just 5 walking minutes away from Valletta. Sea view!! + Friendly and ready to help staff. + "Old style luxury" - hotel feels a bit like Titanic or Orient Express.

“New Years Eve week away”

We were given a ‘superior’ room which had a terrible outlook - basically a great expanse of tarpaulinned roof and nothing else from a prison like window with bars on it. I did asked to be moved and was showed two other rooms which we gratefully accepted. It might be worhtwhile additionally,advising guests of the incline out of the hotel up to the main area, not good for mature guests on foot. The Spa area I thought was less than inviting. The jacuzzi was cold and barely anyone stayed it in for more than a minute. lighting was really dull in the swimming area.
Great staff, very accommodating. a comfortable Hotel and warm, given the unexpected cold spell. Enjoyed the gentle entertainment in the lounge in the evenings. Nice big open spaces.

“Disappointed , will not stay again. Much better hotels with better rooms to stay in Malta.”

Bathrooms aresmelly and outdated, rough bedsheets , had asked for the two beds to be converted in to a double when booking the room, checked in at 2 am , beds were still not done, house keeping came at 3 am to push them together, was travelling with kids and they slept with a dent in the beds even the next day.okd furniture in rooms, carpets look worndown. Asked for a checkout at 12:30 instead of 12, was told only 10 minutes extra will be given. I enquired if there were other occupants coming for the room, was told no but only 10 minutes extra will be given. Not worth the price at this level of service
Location is good

No problems but for a poor TV sound and not so good picture quality
Immacutely kept rooms to make one feel special. View from the room was great. Rooms were quiet and private. Location of hotel within close proximity to all major tourist spots. Staff were very good.

“The vacation was nice, hotel was not the best part of it.”
- • Leisure trip

The amenities are very 80s - scratched old furniture, old carpeting, bathroom so so. Personnel- it is a big hotel run very tightly, the main concern seems to be following the miriad of rules, not customer satisfaction. We did not feel welcome, but rather a subject to the administrative rules (among others a sizable guarantee charged upfront). Not a pleasant experience.
Very well located in relationship to Valetta. Big spacious lobby. Decent food in the restaurant. Great view from the bar.
