The rooftop pool was great to cool off on hot days. The suite was clean and comfortable for family of 3. The staff was very helpful and onsite during the week/day. Available via phone on weekends. The location was great, close to many bus routes and very walkable.

Stayed at the Grand Habour view Sky suite for 3 nights. WiFi was not working on day 1, one of the bedside lamps was not working. AC could not be adjusted (only on/off). Like the space and the view, and the staff was very friendly and did their best to help, but the maintenance should be done much better.

8/10 Very good! (395 reviews)
The hotel is a few streets back from the main Qawra tourist areas. The Reception area was quite dark. On approaching the hotel there's no signage to indicate where the reception desk is (on you left behind you as you walk in) I mentioned it being dark and they put a few lights on but it was still gloomy. The hotel needs modernising. It doesn't look like much has changed since it was built The room was clean the bed comfortable. There wasn't any bottled water in the room, most 4 star hotels in Malta give you a free bottle of still water. The supplied toiletries on the room were a decent quality. The toilet was so close to the wall, bigger people need to sit to the side. There were 2 unidentified red stains on the bed. Didn't look like blood. Despite our room being close to the lifts we didn't hear noise. maybe a little bit from the street outside. The indoor and outdoor pools looked ok if a little bit small. Breakfast was a bit hit and miss. Coffee and Scrambled eggs were great, but everything else was bad. I'd suggest going room only and going out for breakfast. There is a lack of signage. no sign pointing to reception, the indoor pool, the bar or the dining area. £85 for 1 night in late September 2026 isn't too bad for a 4 star hotel in Malta. I don't think you'd be disappointed, but there are better places to stay
