Top Grotto of the Madonna Hotel Reviews

Solana Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Stayed half board, food very good at breakfast and dinner with lots of choices. Room was good, location was good. Personally I prefer a pool I can swim in rather than little plunge pools, but overall a good stay"

Hotel VIU57

10/10 Excellent

"As usual, the staff are excellent, from the reception to the restaurant they are friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and warm and kept clean with great views out over the bay. Breakfast is good and adequate, you can help yourself to as much as you want. We always stay at viu-57 when we visit Melieha and this time we were fortunate with lovely weather. We fully recommend this hotel."

Maritim Antonine Hotel & Spa Malta

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely modern hotel in the centre of Mellieha, close to restaurants and bus routes. Our room, although wholly internal with no windows to the outside world (but one with a balcony overlooking the central atrium), was a comfortable side without being actually large. The huge Super-king bed was extremely comfortable, as were the pillows, of which there were two each. The light switches in the room took a bit of figuring out given that most switches seemed to do more than just switch on/off a particular light! The shower room was clean and well appointed, just a little tight between the toilet and the sink. A very minor thing. There are three pools, two outside (well, the ground floor outside pool actually consists of three pools) and one inside. The ground floor outdoor pool is in a pretty garden in a sheltered position. The rooftop pool offers stunning views across Mellieha and also has the benefit of a poolside bar and restaurant. Breakfast was at the better end of typical hotel breakfasts with ample choice and the food in the hotel's attached Al Ponte Restaurant & Pizzeria was very good. Helpful staff everywhere. We would definitely stay here again if visiting the area."

Ramla Bay Resort

10/10 Excellent

"A great hotel away from the bustle of other areas but great for ferry travel and boat trips, including some of the best spots for snorkelling. The food was good, staff were very helpful with everything we asked. The hotel has a number of bars you can flick through with the various happy hours which is great. The private beach and snorkelling/swimming area is great!"

Dream Vacation with Private Pool BBQ and breathtaking sunrise and sunset views

8/10 Good

"Lovely, stylish apartment. Large supermarket next door (Welbee's). Can recommend Maypole, on the next corner, for fresh bread and amazing cakes! The small pool was a bit too cold for us in October. The apartment occupies a corner site overlooking "highway" 1 which is the main road from the ferry terminal at Cirkewwa to the south, so some traffic noise audible in the master bedroom. The second bedroom is at the back so no issue. When we booked, the photos showed soft seating on the balcony, Unfortunately this is currently unavailable."

Riviera Spa Resort – Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was everything you could wish for. From the check in with Eunice whose customer service throughout the stay was exceptional, the amazing breakfast, cleanliness of the room, pool area etc… Beautiful restaurants on site and the boat trips right on your doorstep it was a perfect stay and we will definitely be coming back"
