Top Fort St. Elmo Hotel Reviews

Grand Hotel Excelsior

8/10 Good

"The staff at the Concierge desk was great but that's where it ended. Check in room almost an hour. A cruise ship we came in on all departed at the same time and the most of the passengers all succeed at the and Unfortunately there is a lot wrong with this property. The rooms"

Barceló Fortina Malta

8/10 Good

"Reception staff were very friendly and helpful. Very disappointed in the one bottle of water a day only, so sad when other hotels give unlimited water."

Corinthia St George's Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel ideally located a few minutes walk from the main area of St Julian’s and Paceville Gets very busy at night with loads of bars, Disco and nightlife Good food choices with Henry Beam and Hard Rock Cafe Excellent clean room with excellent staff and service and nice pools as well as the facility to swim in the sea Rush hour in the evening can be expensive with bolt taxi Blue lagoon is a must"

1926 Le Soleil Hotel & SPA

8/10 Good

"It is a solid 4* hotel. The only issue is with the room. The curtains make it impossible to sleep in. Too much light coming in. In the peak summer months this is a problem as the sun is up at 6am. Also the air conditioning shuts down when you leave the room so the room gets warm during the day if you leave to wander around town. The hallways on the 11th are also not air conditioned (our room was on the 11th floor). Their sister property (Le Bains) is where the hotel pool is at. Great little poo. The property is a true one stop shop. Great concept. They have their own beach club (La Plage), beach restaurant (La Vie), hotel restaurant le GV (Michelin guide 2026). I highly recommend booking le GV for brunch. The food was a real treat. The service impeccable. Overall a definite great choice. Location was amazing."
