8.6/10 Excellent! (411 reviews)

The staff were friendly but not attentive they gave us a room that was already occupied then the first room was really unsuitable as it was dirty and smelly eventually the room we stayed in was much better but not amazing as it was right at the end of the longest corridor and where the store rooms were so we kept hearing very loud door slams throughout the early morning and during the night too. The breakfast was okay but very crowded we had to wait in a queue sometimes for over 20 minutes. Location was okay but not the best as the taxi’s sometimes got confused where to pick up or drop us. So we will be avoiding Intercontinental hotels in the future.

This was a wonderful place to stay in Valletta- beautifully designed throughout, everything was clean, comfortable quiet balcony room, every staff member we met was lovely we were looked after with warm hospitality, the location was brilliant just 2 mins walk from the buzzing “33 steps” with its great food, drinks and atmosphere and moments from the main landmarks, rooftop pool was… invigorating! The view from the Gomerino’s rooftop is like the jewel its crown!
