"Stunning views of the Grand Harbour compensate for not-so-stunning rooms in this two-star hotel in a five-star location." Full review
"The hotel has its pros and cons – on the plus side it's affordable, welcoming and well located; it enjoys great views over the harbour and the Three Cities. " Full review

"The Phoenicia is the best of all the country’s five-star hotels if you are here to sightsee." Full review
"Malta’s first five-star hotel, this 1930s grande dame is still the home-from-home for British royals visiting the former colony"
"Just outside Valletta’s main gate, this 1940s old grande dame feels like the kind of place Miss Marple might stay if she were in town, with its potted palms and art deco piano bar." Full review
"It sits on seven acres of private gardens...the rooms are fairly minimal in decoration, the hotel interiors are magnificent, and the spa and indoor pool cap off the luxury amenities."
