“ Hair body and hair all over the bathtub and shower

Unfortunately, I booked this hotel to spend a pleasant time as a birthday surprise for my boyfriend. However, upon entering the bathroom in our room, I immediately found hair all over the floor of the shower and bathtub.
This means that where it should have been cleaned properly, it was not.
I was disappointed, because a hotel of this size should at least offer a clean environment to its guests.
The breakfast was nothing special and lacked a variety of options.
The bed is not as soft as I imagined.
When we were inside the room, the cleaner simply came in without knocking on the door to make sure there was no one there, or at least asking if they could open it or if we needed anything. She just opened it.
Because of these details, unfortunately my experience was not pleasant and I do not recommend this hotel, as I have stayed in others in Malta, smaller but complete in every way.
Positive point. The suite was upgraded free of charge for my boyfriend's birthday and when we arrived, there was a small cake as a gift.
That was very nice.

Very good hotel in fantastic location and great facilities. The staff is great and one must note the great Daniel Bugno who single handed in making us stay 7 nights instead of 2 nights. Also Sabrina who looked after us. Silvia and her Executive Lounge team are fantastic and the Lounge was a big hit with the guests. We will return.

It was a weekend for my birthday. They had planned everything, champagne glasses on arrival, personalised cakes directly served in our room.
An incredible breakfast buffet. Everything was perfect.

We decided to celebrate my birthday by staying a couple of nights at the Hilton as our original travel plans were thwarted, so we turned our vacation into a staycation after we were given a fantastic rate from 26-28 December. It was our first stay in a hotel during these times and we were very happy with what we found. The front office team were outstanding, and explained everything to us in a very detailed check-in. Very different to a usual check-in, as they asked us to book breakfast with them, and use of the indoor pool, explaining the reasoning behind it, explaining why the indoor pool has 1 hour time slots etc. It was very refreshing to see a hotel quite busy, but we felt completely at ease.

We stayed 2 weeks: partly vacation (Xmas and NYE), and remote work.
The sea view is amazing especially in the morning (cf picture from our room), the fitness center is well equipped including group classes, the WiFi is fast and convenient for visio calls. Other than the facilities are quite standard for this type of resort.
What we will truly remember is how the staff went above and beyond to make us happy and adapt to covid restrictions, to end of year festivities and affluence.
Jonh, Sylvia, Maxime, Nazareno, Giuliano were especially outstanding in their attention to detail and proactive sense of service. Thank you 😊
