Top Is-Swatar Hotel Reviews

115 The Strand Hotel by NEU Collective

8/10 Good

"Great location and good standard. Breakfast very busy but overall a good stay"

The St George Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff were very helpful. It was also very useful to have the balcony. However, the bathroom and toilet amenities can be improved since they seem to be quite old."

Hyatt Regency Malta

10/10 Excellent

"."

Malta Marriott Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"We stayed for 4 nights and upgraded to a club king room with sea view which was very nice snd worth it. The property is very well maintained and the staff is super friendly and helpful. The room itself was beautiful. I would only say that the bed is more on the firm side and given our personal preference is a bit softer this would be the only negative. Also if you are a very light sleeper, note you can sometimes hear motorcycles from the main street below even from the 11th floor which the hotel cannot control however the overall comfort and sea view compensated for this. Buffet breakfast was delicious and access to the club suite was convenient since you can grab coffee, refreshments and snacks 24 hours, plus appetizers and alcoholic beverages from 5-7pm. I would definitely stay here again."

Corinthia Palace Malta

8/10 Good

"This hotel is in the middle of a largely residential area but the rest of the island is easily accessible via Uber/Bolt taxis at very reasonable prices. We only had breakfast at the hotel which was very good with a full choice available. It is worthwhile walking around the districts adjoining the property where there are several villages wth small bars and restaurants . We found the local people to be very friendly. Many of the buildings are very historic and beautiful."

Ramla Bay Resort

10/10 Excellent

"After spending a few days in busy, crowded Valletta, Ramla Bay Resort was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the ocean and island views. Nice room with a big balcony, great restaurants, and a friendly staff. There are multiple swimming pools and a beach area - all with plenty of lounge chairs and umbrellas."

Hilton Malta

10/10 Excellent

"like, staff , clean room, good breakfast."

Radisson Blu Resort, Malta St. Julian's

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay ! Would recommend and will be coming back"

Radisson Blu Resort & Spa, Malta Golden Sands

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in a penthouse for 5 days with our teenage daughter. Lots of room for all of us and fabulous facilities. We loved the hot tub on the huge balcony. The resort is in the perfect location overlooking its beautiful beach. The staff were fabulous - nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend."
