The Hilton in Malta provided our family (of 2 adults and a 1 year old) an excellent service, very friendly staff and a great variety of facilities. The daily breakfast is a treat (im actually not a breakfast-kinda-guy but i must say this was a great assortiment). The pools are great and well thought about as there are nice pools for children and parents but 'adults only' pools as well. The health club is fine, and the restaurants were very good as well. I'm definitely coming back here.

We booked this hotel after reading Tripadvisor recommendations and were certainly not disappointed. They have thought of absolutely everything for their guests. The service, standards and all staff were excellent. The breakfasts were a treat, the rooms were spacious, even the Deluxe rooms. We were travelling as a family of 4 and had 2 rooms with inter-connecting door which was just right for our one week stay. We called the hotel prior to our stay to book a car to pick us up at the airport (costs approx Euro 23). I would mention the handy supermarket (Arkadia) in the basement of the Portomaso small shopping centre next to the hotel. We ate dinner in the numerous restaurants around St Julians. Would recommend 'Terazza' overlooking Spinola Bay and 'The Avenue' a few streets back from the hotel, towards Paceville. The Eden cinema in Paceville was good, showing up to date films in English, although the Paceville area/St George's Bay is a bit down-market. We certainly hope to return to the Hilton, St Julians.

This was my second trip to Malta, and just happened to be my honeymoon! A very last minute trip indeed however...

My hubbie & I were in a bit of a pickle as to which hotel to stay in, me recommending some, him preferring the sound of others.

We opted for the Hilton as the reviews on here were so positive. However, it was definitely NOT 5 star. Perhaps 15 years ago, but alas not now! I think the hotels in Malta tend to be a little outdated generally and I've never understood for such a popular tourist destination, why. So though the Hilton may possibly be the best hotel on the island, compared internationally it has no chance.

The décor is like an old fashioned business hotel, though clean and practical. Not very inspiring or romantic; in fact I half expected my other half to whip out his Crackberry! The pools & outside area are in contrast, fabulous! When we first checked in, there were half finished drinks in our mini bar! When we notified the (very friendly) reception team, we were told someone would be around to check it. No one came... for the whole trip! The breakfast buffet is nice, with great choice. The Spa is super, with a great range of treatments. The concierge were very helpful and friendly, which seems to be a rarity nowadays!

Overall we enjoyed our stay but it was not a patch on true 5*'s.

After always dreaming about staying at the Hilton in Malta, we were quite dissapointed after arriving to check-in to find that our room was over-booked!! The problem was sorted out by us being transferred to another 5 star hotel for one night.Upon arrival back at the Hilton we found we had been up-graded to an executive suite for the rest of our stay.The rooms were absolutley fantastic,VERY modern and cool.The bathroom was huge,they even provide a plastic duck for the bath!!Housekeeping is impeccable.Restaurant's were very organised and the food out of this world.Pool areas were spotless and the staff very friendly,which goes for all the staff in the hotel,they make you feel very welcome and are obviously trained to a very high standard.The location of the hotel is ideal,central for buses or going for a stroll.Will definatley stay at this hotel again,its worth every penny!!
