Friends were going anyway and have stayed here twice before. Honestly, not my normal choice of accommodation, HOWEVER, so pleased we did. Great location for Valletta, only 15-20 walk to most areas, yes a bit up hill but that’s only 5-10 mins. Service from the start perfect, greater with a refreshing drink. Found our fridge didn’t work, but soon as informed, new fridge sorted. Pool area managed well, staff around perfect, had dinner in tiki restaurant and swordfish was insane. Negatives.. fridge yes should have been checked, the rest was perfect and yes would actually stay again, … ooo food, amazing choice and quality on the breakfast. Right on sea front , good for a little snorkel , showers when get out… just all there

We had an amazing time at the Grand Excelsior Hotel. Initially, I was a little concerned that there wouldn’t be enough for the children, but I needn’t have worried. They all loved our time here. The location was ideal for us, and we walked into town most evenings. There are quite a lot of steps initially, but a shuttle bus is provided for those who need it. The pool was fantastic, and it was lovely to be able to swim. We were able to find sunbeds together every day, usually in the late morning. The sea was beautiful for snorkelling and was right next to the pool, making it easy to enjoy both. The rooms were very clean and a great size, and the air conditioning was wonderful. We all had a really good night’s sleep every night. Breakfast offered a lot of choice, and we all enjoyed it, including our fussy eaters and vegetarian. We are hoping to come back, as we didn’t manage to do everything we would have liked to, and we will definitely stay here again.

Really nice hotel, friendly and helpful staff. Good choice of food at breakfast and would recommend the inside restaurants - Spice Room & Admiral and outside - Tiki. Spacious pool, plenty of sun loungers and quiet at nightime so no issue regarding sleep. Would happily return again in the future! Thank you to all your great staff, especially Heathcliff on the front desk who helped me package up a gift I had to ship home.
