We loved everything about the Hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was brilliant, an amazing choice everyday. Room was comfortable and the room cleaners worked very hard for us. The pool area and access to the sea were beautiful. We requested use of an ironing board etc and extra pillows, all supplied with a smile. We were in Malta for a family event.

Fabulous location sea views. They run a mini bus up hill to the town great idea. Very friendly staff. Lovely swimming pool. Good breakfast Large rooms slightly dated but very clean. If your an older person I’d ask for a room with walk in shower as I found it hard to step into.

One week at Grand Hotel Excelsior was a very good experience. From front door and front desk experienced friendly and knowledgeable staff. Food was good whichever restaurant you visited within the hotel and again friendly and knowledgeable staff at all times. My room was clean and tidy and kept that way all week by the housekeeping team. Treated ourselves to a short and sweet spa experience which was well deserved and worth having. We went through a travel agent and found our bed and breakfast booking well worth the money. The hotel is situated only short distance from Balletta which we made full use of - with the hotel offering a car ride which would cut eliminate the steep staircase climb. All in all a very good experience would definitely make a return journey and booking.

Such fabulous staff who can’t do enough for you. They are so attentive. The hotel is in a perfect location. The standard of the dinners is excellent.

Lovely staff with fantastic choices for breakfast. The hotel is in a handy location but the 80 steps up to the main road could be difficult for some guests. There is a hotel shuttle which can take you up the hill to the centre of Valetta. The only thing I would say is that some of the furniture looks a little tired but surprisingly this adds to the old world charm. All in all we had a great stay
