8/10 Good
"The Verdi is an awesome hotel, the staff is helpful and accommodating. We had a clean room everyday, ate at most of the restaurants that were all excellent and the pool / beach area was enjoyable, clean and necessary for the heat. I will say the area that the hotel is in is very geared to party people and young adults. We did eat at some great restaurants a new kms away but if I go back to Malta I will most likely stay in a different area. I am also looking forward to when this hotel is free of the construction surrounding it, it makes for the streets to be extremely busy and blocked off. However I can’t stress enough how this is not the hotels fault and the hotel itself deserves 5 stars."

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed in the room 1801, it was brilliant being so high up, with the balcony, you have wonderful views 24/7, and away from the nightlife noise at the base of the hotel. We had upgraded before we came, and we also extended our stay so we had a late check out, so glad we did both! The staff were all super welcoming, kind and attentive, but also give you space to enjoy your time. We didnt have the breakfast as I wouldnt be able to eat my money's worth at 30 EUR per day. The spa was wonderful, quiet, perfect place to escape and chill. The housekeeping were amazing, coming back to a clean room twice a day was so special, couldnt have asked for better."

115 The Strand Hotel by NEU Collective

8/10 Good
"Great location and comfortable stay The location of 115 The Strand Hotel is fantastic, and the beds were really comfortable. The rooms were kept clean, which was a positive. However, we did have some issues with the air conditioning, including a leak, and there were signs of damp and mould, which was disappointing. If natural daylight is important to you, I’d recommend booking a balcony room which is lovely but we also had one of the standard rooms it had no natural light at all, just a concrete wall outside the window. Breakfast was good, with a nice selection of options. The front-of-house team were lovely and welcoming, although the restaurant staff weren’t particularly pleasant overall. Only two members of the restaurant team were genuinely engaging and friendly. Overall, the hotel has a fantastic location, comfortable beds and clean rooms, but the air-conditioning, damp/mould issues and lack of natural light in some standard rooms are worth considering when booking."

Ramla Bay Resort

10/10 Excellent
"One of the best resorts I’ve stayed in. It’s big and even though it’s busy it doesn’t feel crowded. The little beach is a massive plus as the island doesn’t have many. Food is excellent! Every day different dishes. Two restaurants to go to. 3 swimming pools and an inside one with cold unsalted water. Bus stop 5 min from hotel. Water activities jetty even less. Every room has a balcony. It’s worth paying extra for the sea view one as it’s beautiful overlooking the pools and the sea. We were given a half sea view initially but after talking to the staff they’ve kindly changed our room to the full sea view. My only gripe is no free water given with dinner. Water is a basic human necessity and should be provided for free at meal times. Loved the place and would happily come back."
