Reviews for Grand Hotel Excelsior
Time for a refurb.
Hotel is in a tired state and is no more than a 4 star at best. The staff were excellent . The bathroom needed some attention to basic decore and the floor carpet to room needs to be replaced with tiles. The pool area is not too good as the tiles and walk areas are very dirty and the sunbeds are so uncomfortable and should be replaced. However the breakfast experience was excellent.

Fantastic stay for my honeymoon, good for family and couples, beautiful pool, quiet, clean rooms & common areas of hotel, friendly staff. Breakfast, lunch, dinner was tasty. Tiki bar food by the pool for lunch was delicious. Easy to walk to Valletta, I recommend staying here.

Overpriced for facilities provided.
Stayed for a week. Lovely location if your well able to climb up a very very steep hill which luckily we were! I can't believe this hotel has 5 stars. The price you pay is for 5 stars everything else gets a 3. Pool side is shockingly dirty. The same cigarette buts and used plasters around sunbeds all week. Outrageous price for basic food. We got the towels for poolside which are small and will cover the back of the sunbed but too small to cover base as well so I asked for a second towel and after getting it was told ' make good use of it your not getting any more' pool side tables covered in spilt icream and food never cleaned all week. Beach area is grit stone and sun loungers packed beside each other. Sunloungers terrible, broken ripped and uncomfortable. Chairs at breakfast so filthy they are sticky to touch. Can't believe this is 5 star. Our welcome on arrival was tepid at best. There was one girl on reception another evening who was very friendly and smile and said hello to us. (didn't get her name)
