The best 3-star hotel I have stayed at! Absolutely nothing to pick on. Great location, good standard of facilities, always clean and tidy. Very friendly and helpful staff. Special thanks to Niko who made us feel very welcome upon check-in - his service was exemplary.
Room was very clean, although we did not have a view from our room, though it did the job as it is in an ideal location just off the strand near hundreds of restaurants and the marina. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful, breakfast buffet was great. View from the rooftop pool area was amazing.
Lovely modern room and shower. Spotlessly clean and refreshed every morning. Spacious, fridge, safe, tea and coffee. Breakfast plentiful. Staff helpful and courteous.
Warning hotel has no bar but rows of bars and restaurants within walking/stumbling distance.
Our stay at Alavits was perfect. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly and always very pleasant to chat to each day.
Our room was absolutely perfect!
Great size and great amenities. Perfect for a family and lived the rooftop pool with a great view over Malta.
We were so happy during the entirety of our stay. 😊😊
The hotel was very clean and comfortable, the breakfast was very good. It was set back from the busy road which was good as no traffic noise could be heard at night. It was in a central location with plenty of eating places nearby and just a 10 minute walk to the ferry crossing for Valetta. I would definitely recommend staying here when visiting Malta.
The hotel has an excellent location, with stunning views from the room and the rooftop pool. The room’s interior was beautifully designed. Although the drainage in the bathroom and sink could be improved, it did not significantly affect our stay.
I would definitely choose to stay here again when visiting Malta.
Clean, modern hotel room. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet was bountiful with many gluten free options. Wish the room had an iron (I'm sure I could have called down for one), and that there was a fan in the bathroom to help control humidity (a losing battle in Malta, though).
Loved our room 1307 loads space, breakfast was just right.
Great location, near ferries, restaurants etc
Pool seemed a bit to chlorine and nice bar, when it was open
Nice staff all round, will be back but must have same room.
Hotel in a very convenient location for sightseeing and restaurants and bars but up a side street so a bit quieter from the main road. Clean and modern hotel, room very good. Breakfast very goid, lots of choice.
Hotel is a great location, and easy walking and ferry access to the sites.
Room was spacious and quiet and breakfast had a great selection.
Car park is at sister hotel in basement, and approx 5 min walk, and very safe to leave car.
Checking a bit slow, but other from that would stay here again.

On the 13th floor w spectacular view of the marina from a large patio. The room was very clean and bed quite comfortable. The pool and loungers on the 14th floor was beautiful with the kindest bartender and great view. Location is perfect for transit access- ferry, bus and Bolt (their Uber). The staff was so pleasant. Breakfast was good. Tip: the convenience store across the street with stock you up with anything you need. Get yourself bottled water as the hotel does not sell it aside from at the pool deck.
I really enjoyed my 5 night stay and would recommend it to anyone.
I enjoyed my stay staff where really nice and helpful. Breakfast was good.

The hotel is centrally located in relation to bus connections to the rest of the island and from our room for the 13th floor. Was a beautiful view over the bay.
The ventilation system in the bathroom and room needed to be cleaned, the room and bathroom had a bad smell.
The breakfast buffet had a great selection and it looked fresh if you ate kl. 7.30 but often when we came kl. 9.30 the food was bland, dried out and half cold.
When we arrived the toilet board was cracked, this was quickly changed.
The hotel is in an excellent location. Loads of bars, shops and restaurants nearby, beautiful harbour view from some rooms, and very close to many buses and ferries to Valletta.
The hotel is new, and has great amenities, particularly great shower and is very clean.
The best thing about the hotel though is the staff. I stayed nearly 2 weeks there and felt like some of them were old friends by the time i left. Particular mentions go to Naran who cleaned my room so well, to Niko on reception, always smiling and helpful, and Patricia the manager who not only sorted out a small problem with my initial room which was caused by a lack of clear description of the room by Expedia, but she also remembered it was my birthday mid stay, and even had a happy birthday balloon on my bed when i returned in the evening. Such a lovely touch.
Thanks to all there. Top marks to everyone.
Great location and staff. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was good value for money. Roof top was nice to soak in some sunshine even if the pool was still a tad too cold.
We nervously booked 11 nights based on reviews and we were not dissapointed. Great value for the money and the staff was just lovely. Thank you for a great stay.
