The Place to Stay in Malta
I could write many words to describe our experience and the service we got. All of them would come short. If you are planning in enjoying a relaxing and pleasant holiday in Malta, this is definitely the place to stay. Plenty of pools, restaurants, amenities and most of all a super friendly and helpful staff. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms are very nice. 5 star experience.

Excellent hotel in a good position
Excellent hotel. Staff on reception were very welcoming, and despite arriving over 2 hours earlier than room ready checkin, our room was available. Breakfast is perfect and a huge choice, including sparkling wine, English style bacon and sausage. Egg station does omelettes, fried eggs and poached eggs. We were in a deluxe plus room on the 6th floor. Very comfortable, excellent air con and spacious with a super king size bed. It was comfortable but only 2 small pillows each weren't enough - we had to ask for more. One tip - don't have a pool view room if you go to bed before midnight. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights there are weddings, functions and parties directly under the pool view rooms. The band is VERY loud even with the patio door shut and the TV on. Talking about the TV, there's a good enough choice of English programmes and there was also a DVD player. We sunbathed each day around the pool furthest from the hotel - the Merkanti Beach Club. It was right on the sea edge so caught the breeze which was very much needed as the temperatures were between 34C and 37C each day. It didn't fill up until after 11am which is great considering we were there in mid July. You could always get sunbeds. A major downside to the hotel is the price of drinks and wifi. A bottle of water at the pool is €4.10 and alcohol prices throughout the hotel are eye popping. We like Hilton hotels but do find it annoying that they charge exhorbitant prices for wifi. We didn't bother as some people told us that the signal is very hit and miss and one man did request a refund. The majority of the local cafes, bars and restaurants have free wifi so we always used that (the Crows Nest pub is very fast and the booze is cheap!). St Julians is a nice place with plenty of restaurants. The ones at the marina and harbour are a little more expensive but both are lovely places to eat. Our favourite restaurant was Sardinella - excellent food, cheap prices and 25% discount if you go in before 7.30pm. All in all an excellent holiday in a top class hotel.

In Hotel
Get the open top Malta Sightseeing bus which stops outside the hotel in the morning. €15 means you can hop on and hop off all day. We got off at Valletta, walked about for a bit and then picked the bus up again at the harbour. We got off again at the Craft Village and a town called Mosta, then continued the north route around the island. You're give earphones so you can listen to commentary on where you are. A nice day out catching a lovely breeze on the top of the bus!

A wonderful holiday
This is a splendid hotel, I strongly recommend. My wife and I had a great holiday. The room was amazing, with a view out over the swinmming pools and beyond to the Med. Staff were very friendly and service excellent. Breakfast lavish. Plenty of room by the pools despite the hotel being full. Only minor criticisms would be that - and this is through no fault of the hotel - there is a towel arms race, meaning to secure your ideal lounger spot you have to mark your territory with towels in the morning. This used to be regarded as a largely German trait, it seems to have gone global. Pity, but after some internal debate, I decided I had to follow suit. Drinks prices are pretty punchy, but then it's a Hilton in an idyllic setting, if you want cheaper food and drink there are plenty of very nice bars and restaurants nearby. We will return as soon as finances and our growing family allow.

Awesome
Our trip to Malta was way to brief and our stay at the hotel was a delight. Our room was spacious and the view was marvelous. Thw hotel is beautifully appointed and the staff friendly and accomodating. The location was good and within walking distance of shopping and restaurants. All in all a "wow" experience for us...we'll definitely plan a return visit!

The concierge at the hotel were really helpful and we booked lots of tours through them. A stress free way to see the islands.

Not Applicable
Some restaurants don't open until 7pm so booking a table before 8pm can be quiet. The Maltese seem to eat out later with people still arriving to eat at 9 and 10pm.

Sophisticated Malta.
An excellent base to explore the island, from a beautiful location. A good variety of restaurants nearby. Service, rooms and breakfast exceptional, and the air conditioning a welcome relief from the blistering heat.An adult only pool is available. Staff very helpful. Can't wait to go back!

Dank Hilton werden aus guten einfach super Ferien
Zu den grossen Pluspunkten des Hilton zählen ganz klar das überaus freundliche und hilfsbereite Personal, die grossen und sauberen Hotelzimmer sowie die zentrale Lage: Rezeption, Concierge, Service und auch das Putzpersonal waren sehr zuvorkommend und wir haben uns im Hilton willkommen gefühlt. Der Concierge hat einem einfach jeden Wunsch von den Lippen abgelesen. Wir haben ein "Twin Hilton deluxe plus" Zimmer mit Meerblick und Balkon gebucht. Das grosse, helle Zimmer wurde immer gründlich geputzt und war gut ausgestattet (Minibar, Safe, TV, Bügelbrett etc.) - besonders gefallen hat uns das schöne Badezimmer und der Balkon. Den gebuchten Meerblick haben wir bekommen, aber leider waren wir ganz am Rande des Hilton. So kam es, dass unser Zimmer nicht weit über einem öffentlichen Parkplatz war und man besonders in der Nacht oft Motorengeräusche und Gelächter von "Nachtschwärmern" mitbekommen hat. Für uns war die Lage auch ideal. Das Hilton ist in etwa 20 Minuten vom Flughafen aus realtiv kostengünstig mit einem Taxi zu erreichen. Zu der direkten Lage am Meer kommt die Nähe zum Zentrum. Nach einigen Gehminuten waren wir von vielen schönen Restaurants und Shops umgeben und auch das maltesische Nachtleben mit seinen ganzen Bars, Discos und Casinos war nur einen Katzensprung vom Hotel entfernt. Positiv überrascht waren wir auch vom sehr reichhaltigen Frühstücksbuffet. Von normalem Brot über Cornflakes, Kuchen und maltesischen Spezialitäten bis hin zu selbstgemachten Crêpes und vielem mehr ist wirklich für jeden etwas dabei. Alles in allem hat uns das Hilton sehr zugesagt und wir freuen uns schon auf den nächsten Aufenthalt!

Sightseeing tip:
In Hotel
Im Hilton steht einem eine grosse Auswahl an verschiedenen Möglichkeiten zu Verfügung, um seinen Ferien den Feinschliff zu geben. Die vom Hotel angebotenen Massagen (nicht im Hotelpreis inbegriffen) sind wirklich sehr zu empfehlen - eine Reservation sollte frühzeitig in Angriff genommen werden. Der Fitnessraum ist gut ausgestattet, die Geräte dürften aber wieder Mal gewartet werden. Der Tenniscourt (Hartplatz) ist ebenfalls ein guter Zeitvertreib, aber auch hier sollte frühzeitig gebucht werden, damit man nicht zur wärmsten Zeit unter der Mittagssonne spielen muss. Die meiste Zeit haben wir jedoch an der gigantichen und sehr schönen Poolanlage verbracht - meistens im Merkanti Beach Club. Die Preise sind dort im Vergleich zu anderen Bars in Malta für Getränke leider relativ hoch.
