DoubleTree by Hilton Malta

Had a lovely holiday here with my son and my Dad Friendly reception staff. Great room on top floor with tasteful decor with good views and terrace (I booked a 2 room, room option). The outdoor swimming pool was busy but a bit cool for me in May, but the indoor pool was really warm and not busy. On half board, great selection of foods most days (I'm Veggie, so more limited, but still good). Staff very accommodating to me asking for plain pasta for my son instead of kids options. Only thing i would say, is there is an Adults only area, which isnt that clear and one of the staff very grumpily moved us out of it even though we had sat there a couple of times previously, saying there is a sign, but its facing the food, not the entrance so not obvious at all. There is a kids club open for AM and PM session which I didn't work out until towards end of holiday, it is mentioned, but not well advertised, but my 6 years old son had a lovely time with the staff there when he tried it and kept wanting to go back in our last 3 days which he's often reluctant to do in other places. Had 2 small issues which were promptly resolved, 1st, my son managing to lock the safe, security came within couple of minutes of call, then 1 evening, power in room stopped working, again, someone turned up to fix it quickly. All in all, recommended as long as your happy by a beach that's for most part rock rather than sand (small sand beach attached to hotel I think but I didn't go to that bit). Also, bus station is more or less behind back corner of hotel and Google maps great for telling you which bus to get on for days out.

Service was Great. Facilities were Good, the Gymnasium was disappointing. Food was very good

IT is allways wonderfull to come in These Hotel. The Personal is perfekt ans the Holliday is OK.Thank Youtube.

Excellent hotel with really nice personal! Special thanks to Viktoria Zammit (Guest Relations Manager) who was extremely helpful with our needs. Also, cocktail bartender Milan is good professional! 👏🏼👍

Great size room! Good bathroom supplies.Tea/coffee facilities,fridge in room and iron which was a bonus. My room view was of a construction crane in this occasion sea view not worth it. Good location, plenty shops/restaurants around. First night was horrible, people drunk banging on doors running up and down corridors, Xmas events were happening in the hotel. I thought St Paul’s bay would be quieter than St Julian’s, I was wrong. It is December I guess. Walls and ceilings thin, could hear everyone! I Didn’t get to use the pool, was filled with small kids each time I went. Spa was expensive compared to other hotels, I used a different hotel at half the price for more treatments instead. At breakfast tables were sectioned off by the windows with sea view and breakfast manager said it was for lunch “because lunch guests complained”. Doing this from 9.30am made no sense and was inconsiderate to breakfast guests. Breakfast was excellent. Good selection and tasty. Reception staff friendly. Pretty Xmas displays throughout hotel. Would I stay again, no.

Some false information when I asked the reception.
