Top Fort St. Elmo Hotel Reviews

Grand Hotel Excelsior

10/10 Excellent

"The food offering was really tasty and good value."

Melior Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Well located in the heart of Valletta"

1926 Le Soleil Hotel & SPA

10/10 Excellent

"Location of hotel was excellent, 25 min taxi from the airport at a busy time of day. Sliema, across the bay from Valletta where the hotel is was well placed for catching the water taxi 3euro/ ferry across to Valletta. Although not on the sea front the hotel had an excellent pool, bar, lounges etc on the roof that gave a panoramic view of the sea and Valletta. The hotel also had its own beach club on the sea front a short walk away and a gym located across the road. Very up-to-date tech wise, the hotel had its own app which was used to book dinner, spa appointments, use of sun beds/ gazebos and had your access code for the room. We stayed in a superior room that had what you needed for a comfortable stay, and if you needed anything else, you were able to request it via the app. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Very good selection for breakfast and evening meal equally as good. Getting around from the hotel not a problem. We were only about 400m from the bay that had lovely restaurants and cheap transport across the bay. UBER taxi very fast and efficient. Took a trip to Gozo via the ferry that took just over 1 hr, worth doing. In sum, hotel was perfectly located for your holiday needs, could not fault it."

115 The Strand Hotel by NEU Collective

10/10 Excellent

"We were lucky enough to get a suite with a view of the harbor. The suite had a separate living room, so my sister and I each got our own space and separate air conditioning units. The suite was quite roomy with a lot of space. Hotel was fairly well located. We had an excellent view of Valletta and the entrance to the harbor. There were restaurants and shops close by and we were only a 10 min walk to the Ferry. This hotel was great and I would stay there again."

Palais Le Brun

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel just minutes from all the attractions and sites. Staff was accommodating with superb customer service and kindness. Rooms are very spacious and clean. The breakfast cannot be beat!!!"

Azur Hotel by ST Hotels

8/10 Good

"Super nice front-desk staff, this is very important as it is always the first impression you have of the hotel. Check-in and out was very easy and seamless. Not sure if the hotel is old or just not very well maintained, but my room smelled very strongly of a musty odor which did not air out or disappear over the course of my stay, and which actually permeated my clothes after only a three night stay and travelled with me for the remainder of my vacation that I concluded in Gozo. The hotel is by the waterfront and Malta is humid, but I'm sure this cannot be the reason, otherwise all hotels in the same area would have the same issue. That being said, the hotel does give you free access to an awesome beach club across the street, and for the price you pay in this area compared to the other hotels nearby, it is an obvious choice. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was fine."

San Karlu Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel in a very convenient location. The staff were very nice and helpful. Our room was spacious and nicely decorated, the bathroom was really lovely and good toiletries. The pool is small but very nice for cooling off. There is a small bar on the roof terrace and a happy hour every evening. Breakfast was brilliant, all in all a really nice hotel which I would go back to."

Barceló Fortina Malta

10/10 Excellent

"Great will book again next year"

Palazzo Rosaria Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was on the small side but very clean and had everything we needed. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was plentiful and very good. The location was excellent, right downtown Valletta. Will recommend this hotel."
