Reviews for Grand Hotel Excelsior
Valetta Experience
Excellent service from staff. Central location for sight seeing.

Poor service.
Yesterday we went a day by the pool,the food was great but the service was below zero,they forgot about us.Thanks so much but you will never see us again!

Totally run down
Very disappointing. Run down, old musty. Crowds of cheap clientele all over. Service attentive. Avoid concierge at all costs unless you want to pay one-third more. Don't go there unless your objective is cheap breakfast and sun surrounded by.... I won't say,otherwise they will censor it.

Best location in Valletta
Best hotel location in Valletta , if you want to be able to walk to the centre of Valletta AND have access to swim in the sea directly from your hotel , I believe this is the only hotel for you. A classic traditional 5* hotel , old fashioned opulence , helpful staff , grand reception , free shuttle bus to the ‘top of the hill’ although this is only a 5 minute walk for the mobile anyway and a lovely pool with a stunning view of the water Rooms large comfy but dated , the usual dark wood and orange tiles but good air con and we had a balcony overlooking the pool so all good It is due to be closed and refurbished this year I believe so book now for great VFM as sure it will be more expensive when reopened

Nice hotel, great location.
Very nice hotel but decor is a bit tired in places. Pool steps were slippy and there was no lifeguard on duty. Staff were very friendly and attended to our faulty safe within minutes. View was amazing from our room and location close to city centre but also on the harbour front. We had a late flight but were unable to keep the room which was disappointing, even though we were happy to pay.
