3 Star Malta Holidays

Baubant kevin

old hotel, everything is broken or it doesn't work (oven, door, table, TV) the balcony doors that struggle to close. The cleaning lady who comes to wake you up every morning. No microwave in the kitchen. A sofa bed from the 50s. And on top of that they steal 800 euro bags. Hotel to avoid unless you have no money at all and you have no choice

I am horrified that I am expected to pay to stay in these conditions. The apartment is horrific. Leaking taps broken furniture and smashed lamp shades. The pool is so small that it hardly qualifies and is surrounded by teenagers smoking weed. The food is poor, to say the least. The most talented chef of the lot is the toaster.

I've been going to Malta every year for the last 12 years, 9 of them I have stayed here it's always clean and tidy the housekeeping staff come in every day make the bed, change the towels and clean the floor if needed. It's close to local shops, restaurants and the bus station, with a 10 minute walk (if you are able to) to the aquarium and the sea front

Let's go for a walk

The entrance was locked, and you have to go around to the Canifor hotel and wander through the whole place to get to your apartment, which was a minor nuisance. Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was frankly run-down, with the kitchen tap falling off, mirror in the bedroom hung crooked, a cupboard door falling off and a toilet seat that didn't fit properly etc etc. Bedding was mildly stained and not comfortable, and towels didn't smell particularly fresh. Location is OK, I had a lovely sea view, and a short walk to the coast. There is a loud Irish pub across the road with live music every night, which for some will be great but not so much for me. If you're looking at this place, it's because it's cheap, and that's its main attraction. I don't regret staying here: the location was OKfor me (I hired a car to explore the island, and traffic and parking was decent here), however if you're looking to spend some time in the hotel this isn't the nicest place to stay.

Very good value, excellent food for all diets, fussy kids accommodated when possible. All food packages are available. Friendly and helpful staff in all areas. Balconies, indoor and outdoor pools, roof terrace with jacuzzi, regular entertainment, play areas and quiet reading room with a small library. Very good disabled access, and lifts. Central location, seafront and shopping close by. Good bus service for the whole island, just down the street. Highly recommend!

Our room were modern and very nice - very large and nice bathroom. Cleaning every day if you want, fresh towels every day. Personal in the bar and reception was very kind and helpful. The location is perfect - close to the beach and many restaurants nearby. Rooftop pool with nice facilities. In general very happily surprised with our stay at Luna Hotel! Live music almost every evening.

Alexandra Gemmell

A great hotel in a fab location. Staff really nice and friendly. Rooftop pool was fabulous and plenty of sun loungers - note we were here in June. We didn’t eat at the hotel so cannot comment on the food. The room (standard double) was a really good size with a small kitchenette and the bathroom was fine - could do with a bit of an update but really good value for money. Room was clean and towels changed every two days. The room had both air-con and a fan which cooled the room down quickly. Beds were comfy enough - note that the double bed is two large singles pushed together. Location of the hotel was fab. Close to the beach where you can book boat trips and water activities. Bus stops couldn’t be much closer with frequent buses into Valletta and also to the port to get the ferry to Gozo. The main town of Mellieha is up a hill but is very walkable in the evenings when the temperature is cooler - or you can easily get a bus. There are plenty of restaurants by the beach and in the town to choose from. The hotel had live music in the evenings which was nice but very loud (but couldn’t hear from room).

Isadora Lee

Had an amazing stay for a wedding at Luna. We booked one of the superior rooms and it was large, spacious and modern. Only giving four stars as plug in bathroom was a little broken and balcony was not very private. The staff at Luna are honestly fantastic. They were so kind and helpful, putting up with a very noisy wedding party like champs. Would stay again, great value for money. Sky lounge is especially impressive and really nice place to chill out on a hot day. Close to the beach and a lot of really nice restaurants and cafes so couldn't ask for a better location! Having the mini mart underneath makes life so easy as well.

Paul Clubb

Stayed August for 10 days.. upgraded to executive studio. Stunning rooms , cleaned everyday, bed linen and towels changed everyday. This was our first time to Malta. 100% return to Luna complex, lovely staff, spotless clean. 10 days was not enough to explore all the island.

Valeria Rossel

- When we arrived the room was not ready, but we were allowed to leave our baggage in a room and have a drink. - Day after, when we wanted to cook breakfast, gas was empty! They "changed" it for a new empty gas! We tried to call the reception, but telephone wouldn't work! We had to go down and ask for a new full gas! - This same morning we realized that the water in the shower wouldn't drain. They "clean" it but after 2 days it was stuck again. - Cupboard in the kitchen was broken. We couldn't regulate the gas. - If you don't book direct with the hotel, housekeeping is just every two days. - We run out of soap and they wouldn't even refill it! - Staff not very friendly - Be aware that they can close the rooftop swimming pool and bar for private occasions (happened to us two times!) - Only good thing: Location. Close to the beach, restaurants and bus stops. - Bed very uncomfortable and pillows even worst! Bed sheets don't hold to the mattress.

I stayed here as part of a package with love holidays... No issues with the hotel at all. Reception staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. The room was clean, also the bathroom was clean. Housekeeping staff both in public areas, and on the 2 occasions I met room service maid were all polite and a credit to the business. As the hotel restaurant was closed the adjacent Molly Malone bar next door is where I had breakfast.. This is where the issues arose.. Two choices... Full English, or omelette... Day one full English.. deep fried everything.. Day 2 omelette.... Two egg omelette with ham and cheese, nicely presented folded in half then half again to look like a crepe!! Garnish was 1 Cos lettuce leaf with two slices of tomato.. Both breakfasts where priced at €7.50 Has a two egg omelette won't fill up a child I had the breakfast for the rest of the week. On last day, Sunday morning breakfast turned up as usual but the fried egg was extra well done, and the underside of egg tasty burnt.. ordinarily I would have ordered a new breakfast, but due to the chef turning up 15 minutes late (8-15) and an early transfer to airport I did not have time to reorder. I reported this to the reception staff.. Holiday was mid April..

We survived the night. Saddly we read the reviews AFTER we saw the cockroaches everywhere. Our room was full of insect. Thousands of ants and unidentifieable insects. Cockroaches everywhere. Old rooms , furniture that is falling apart, ugly garden that was propably cleaned last decade. After reading the reviews i think they have two standards. One nice rooms and second old ugly full of insects. Otherwise i don't know how they are getting 5 star reviews. Some positives: Reception looks almost luxury, very helpfull staff. Decent pool with sunbeds. 10minutes to beach But the ugly old rooms full of cockroaches and other insects make your stay miserable. Dirty street. Maybe they are trying but they desperately need investment. I mean insect traps are literally 0,10€ per piece. But seems like they don't care which is sad. Im giving 2 stars for the staff and the pool. and its very well a stretch. Iam glad we spent only one night becouse if we were to spend more i would just go somewhere else.

Andreea Diana

The location is decent! 5 mins walk from the bus stop at the main road. 10 mins away by walk to the beach side. I could store my luggage in a storage room before the check-in hour, which was nice! They have a nice pool which is, in my opinion, the strongest asset! They also have a restaurant and a bar, that it's not only for the hotel, where the prices were okay and the girls working at the bar were lovely! The room had a functioning air conditioning! Big plus for that! The reception was okay in terms of communication! They understood and accepted our request to do a late check-out. Now things that were not so okay.. Despite they offer an everyday room cleanliness, when they offer also clean towels and arrange also the bed sheets, I have to say that the whole place itself is quite dirty and dusty. Only the reception and the bar were looking okay, but once you were going inside of the private area of the hotel, it was getting bad. Dead cockroaches outside and inside of the building. The sunchairs were stained with a disinfectant solution, thing that they do daily but they don't clean the solution itself after, which makes the sunbeds look dirty. The room was for 3 people and it was lacking a trash bin, hanger for clothing, hangers in the wardrobe. There was also a hole in the balcony door, for air conditioning I suppose. The bathroom was looking super old, used and dirty. The shower head was stuck in its own place and couldn't be used properly. No window or ventilation inside of it, which makes the humidity and warmth of the showers staying there or, even worse, coming in the room. The door was always hard to open, needing to push it hard while unlocking it. Not all of the light bulbs were working.

EVA MARTIN

disgusting hotel. our room was infested with pests. there were bed bugs and hoards of ants, not to mention all the cockroaches around the pool area. A disgrace never come here ever unless you want your vacation ruined!! we had to relocate but even that was a disaster. disgusting, they should be ashamed of themselves

Naomi R

The pictures don’t look nothing like the hotel. It is riddled with cockroaches and ants and the building is in poor condition. The majority of the surrounding buildings have been closed down and area is quite deprived.

The Phillips Family

We had a last minute (literally) holiday and found this pretty cheap half board deal. We were very worried about the reviews and almost cancelled. This place is vast and we were pleasantly surprised with the service which was very good especially as a 3☆, the lakes are a magnet for mosquitoes but with sprays, air con on & doors closed, we hardly got bit. The main reason we came was for our 4 children 3, 12, 14 & 16 who all loved the pools, foam party and food. We booked the Mexican restaurant 2 nights and it was slightly different to the main restaurant. The beach was great and only a 10 minute walk. Sun & fun for 7 days. 45 min transfer on a public shuttle which was OK. Your holiday is what you make it and we enjoyed our stay. The staff have all been helpful and polite considering the amount of people here.

J Dempsey

I read some pretty negative reviews of this hotel after booking it so was a bit worried before getting there, but I can honestly say I couldn’t find fault with anything really. Our room was in Sirena II which was a modern building and it was really clean. Our room was cleaned 3 times in the week we stayed. The 3rd time we were left short towels and a quick trip to reception and it was instantly sorted. There was some noise some nights, but given the number of people staying there, it could have been worse. It seemed to be as people were passing our door, we couldn’t hear noise from other rooms. The staff at the reception were all extremely helpful anytime I approached them. I read some bad reviews about the food but to be fair, it was no different from any other hotel buffet I have had - large quantities of food being produced and kept warm for huge numbers of people. There was 3 restaurants on site in total and the Italian and Mexican were quite nice. The locations is ideal for going to the beach and there over 10 pools on site to chose from. Plenty snack bars also and at least 2 shops, plus mini golf, pool tables and more activities. We enjoyed our stay there and for a last minute booking, it was good value and we were pleased with what we got.

Paul Letham

I was very pleasantly surprised after doubting my my choice after looking at other reviews. Yes, it's basic and in need of a good spruce up. The location is perfect, and buses are cheap tap in tap out for journey. It's a big complex with lots going on at various locations. Many pools with bars. Slides are a bit dated . There is a Mexican and Italian restaurant which requires booking if all inclusive. No Frills excursions recommended for trips .

Emma Taylor

Food not great, we were only here for a week and the water as gone off twice already! About 4 of the pools were closed! I think I'd give this complex a 2* ....but mallorca itself is amazing would definitely come bk to the country, the beach and sea are the best I've seen the sea is so warm, visited old town a few time so beautiful round there, I just don't think the hotel is not up to scratch in my opinion so would go elsewhere next time.

I don’t prefer all inclusive in this hotel. Bed and breakfast is fine. If you think of having alcohol then bring your own. The drink here is not great. And food is the same throughout our stay. But the people giving the service I really have to admire. Nothing is difficult for them. They go the extra mile to make your stay comfortable.

Carmen Finn

Fantastic apartment with plenty of space. Lovely pool and place to relax, sadly a few too many children, would be best as an adult only as only one pool to share. Only problem is, it's in the middle of nowhere! A long walk to well stocked supermarket, a little pricey but the only option. No other bar or restaurant in walking distance so hiring a car here is essential to get around, although bus stop is close by and buses are regular. I would definitely stay here again, loved this place and Gozo itself ❤️

Paul Azzopardi

We popped over during the Yuletide period. We booked an apartment that had all the amenities close by. Functional kitchen and ver clean place. Had some trouble with the cable tv remote, but it was replaced in a jiffy. Pity we couldn't use the pool which was screaming at us to have a dip...but the weather was a bit chilly. Excellent place for a family to stay.

Kirsten Agius

Upkeep and cleanliness is very good. Pool is large and very clean too. So fresh here that we only use ceiling fans to cool down, even though air-conditioning is available. Anywhere else would be boiling hot and need an a/c 24/7. Wifi access is great!

Sue

Fantastic place to take children for a break.. beautiful and clean with outdoor showers by a lovely pool with children's area. There are plenty of sunbeds for everyone.

Mar Ellul

Place is quiet, take some €1 & €2 coins for the ac and washing machine. There are parking spaces also under the building. A supermarket is in the vicinity but prices are much more than the local ones. Take some pegs to hang your pool towels.

Monique Mizzi

We went a day by the pool, we enjoyed it, the pools are nice and clean . For the cheap price you pay its good even the food , basic but good and staff served us with a smile. The place is quite old and needs renovation but its good to have places like this as not everyone want to pay high prices. It is very well located for young people with low budget who want to be near discos , restaurants and walking distance fun. Thanks for a good Sunday :) 🧡

Joel Umana

You get what you get. For the price of it, it's good. The front desk staff are very welcoming and provide you with ample information. The rooms are decent, along with the beds and pillows. Didn't have trouble sleeping even though we're right next to a very busy street. The breakfast was also decent. The eggs weren't too good, but the rest of the food was ok. There's not too much to pick from. Now, the bathroom was the worst part, horrible smell, cockroaches in the tub, dirty floor, and slimy walls. The smell of the bathroom was enough to make you wanna leave. But besides that, it's was ok. The best part, by far, is the pool area. Makes you think if you're actually in the same hotel.

Zachary Guy

Not too impressed, the air con was not working and was replaced with a dodgy humidifier, that you had to empty with a bucket (not provided) every 3-4 hours. The bathroom was not ideal, constantly reeked of dirty water and the toilet didn’t even flush. I would not recommend staying here unless you’re looking for cheap accomodation to go clubbing as it is right next to the clubbing district.

Tylah Morgan

The main aircon doesn’t work in the room so we had a portable air conditioner/ humidifier which I saw in a few other rooms as well when walking past open doors. This barely worked and had to be constantly emptied every few hours and there was no bucket provided to do this, so we had to use our rubbish bin. The rooms was always boiling hot, the bathroom smells, and the toilet usually wouldn’t flush. The room and the bathroom was very out dated. It wasn’t a particularly comfortable stay for us. I wouldn’t recommend staying here unless you’re looking to really cheap out and stay right in the Paceville near the clubs and bars.

Byron Jellick

If rackin lines and bangin 9’s on the lads trip is what you’re after then this hotel is fantastic as it’s situated right in the club district and has that authentic run down chlamydia ridden party hotel feel, BUT if you want a good nights sleep I’d avoid it. Our aircon didn’t work and the bathroom reeked of sewage water the whole stay

Dimitra Lemonidou

It's a nice hotel, but not the cleanest. It's not dirty, but it could be cleaner. The staff was helpful and polite, but no one could compete with the receptionist working after 5 p.m. (27-31 January, light brownish hair). She was so helpful, polite and always had a smile on her face! If you you don't mind staying in a mediocre hotel, i would definitely recommend it!

Kaloyan Kosev (superKalo)

The personal on the reception was always nice and helpful. The food was great! However, the rooms were kind of low-cost, a bit dirty and not very nice in general. The maids were amazingly tactless and noisy. Air-condition was barely heating (in December). You have 2 options - on and off. We kept it on for the whole day and the room was still cold. Noise levels were quite high during the day, the rooms had not very good sound isolation. If you want to catch a quick nap at noon - it's impossible.

Andrew Watson

Great location, just a few minutes walk from the bars, restaurants, shops and seafront and bus station, the island bus service is second to none. Nice big two bedroom apartment, quiet, hot shower, everything we needed and the staff provided anything else we asked for, all the staff were friendly and helpful, we were self catering so I can't comment on meal options. Two pools, one heated indoor. Pool bar open during the day and main bar open til late. Around 12 channels on the television and 8 or 9 were English. Nice budget hotel, not alot of fancy thrills but great value for money.

Carys Hooper

Myself and my partner arrived at this hotel as our first holiday alone. We arrived to great customer service. As soon as we arrived to our room there was a smell off grease and other stuff coming from the kitchen (3 floors down). We went and complained politely and they didn’t like that at all, they had become very rude towards us. The gave us 2 keys to two different rooms to go and view and see which one we preferred. We went to the 1st room and it was a very unpleasant smell, the second room was still bad but we had no other option. We stayed in that room for 1 night and the next day, my partner got in the shower and the ceiling had fallen down on him into the bath. Just to mention, the bathrooms have black patches everywhere in all 4 rooms we had been in, I used some soap and water to see if it would go away and it did (clearly they don’t wash the floors), in that room we had stayed in had leaks coming from the light bulb which could quite easily electrocute either one of us. So we got told to move rooms as soon as possible. We are currently in our 4th room within just over 48 hours and there is no AC, Chairs have marks all over them, loads of marks on the floor in the hallways of the room. I opened the balcony doors and the handle fell off so it’s not even safe in here. Would definitely not recommend this accommodation to anyone.

Diane Askew

Dirty rooms no choice for food only one side of hot plates used. Desert was ice cream only. Lifts horrible our balcony looked out on main road traffic was terrible. Just as well because balcony was tiny. Don't go is the best advise I can give. Hotel needs closing and revamped or just closing. Bar area dark and dirty . We stayed 2 weeks before first lockdown . Glad we were only there for 4 nights.

Sue Marwood

Not as bad as some of the reviews, I read, our room, overlooking the pool was lovely, brand new mattresses and pillows. Bathroom was very clean, hairdryer didn't work. Towels and bedding changed every couple of days, which I'm sure is enough! Food not brilliant but found some thing to eat each day. Lunch was better than dinner. Staff very nice, so no complaints really, get what you pay for!

Bill Preece

Although several people appear to have complained about the food etc, my wife and I have just had a pleasant weeks stay here. It's a bit dated and basic but the staff were lovely and worked hard. Nothing appeared to be too much for them. The area lacks a bit and is a bit grubby but this is more down to tourists just throwing litter on the floor. I've stayed in better definately but I've also stayed in a lot worse. Credit to the staff. My only issue I had was with noisy groups of youths screaming and shouting late at night as I am a light sleeper but this isn't the fault of the hotel staff.

Zalán Meggyesi

Let's get the good things out of the way first. The rooms are spacious and clean, there's a big wall screen, and balconies overlooking the pool area. Staff is friendly, and the breakfast menu, while a bit plain, nutritious and filling. Now, on to the bad things. The hotel advertises itself as "Parking available" - no hotel should do that if said parking is municipal parking with the guests in direct competition with locals for the available spots! Expect to spend 5-10 minutes hunting for a spot, and the walking to the hotel. The rooms have no potable water - how is this acceptable in the developed world?! You are expected to spend in their lobby vending machines or buy water from local stores if you want to quench your thirst. Overall, the hotel is acceptable, but the arguably false advertising of parking and the lack of potable water in the rooms is just plain infuriating.

Hannah Chappell

As soon as we arrived we went to the room and the room was clean however we had booked a double bed yet we was met with twin beds. Got told by a receptionist they don’t have enough double beds. The food was absolutely disgusting and made me rather ill. We had to eat out pretty much for the last 4/5 breakfasts and night because we simply couldn’t stomach the food. We paid all inclusive as well and drinks stopped at 11 being served and no spirits during lunch and dinner! Just seems like one big rip off spent pretty much most of our day out of the hotel as much as we could. Our tv didn’t work, our light didn’t work. No use telling reception as they weren’t bothered. I think the stay would’ve been a lot better had the food have been better and the drink times, make them 24/7??? We could only get one drink at a time at the bar, we was all inclusive so why not! The hotel overall is a 1 star for me.

gazza

Not a bad hotel food not bad either just needs a bit more variety. Chef needs teaching in the art of cooking chips 🙄 ,only met 2 staff members who,s polite,bar man with beard and andrea in dining area. Cleaners need s kick up the backside as there very lazy as the Jacuzzi not always cleaned and towels not always changed but overall not bad. Would come again.
