I stayed four nights in this hotel. Very spacious rooms with a balcony that looks to the Mediterranean and the swimming pools. Very friendly staff who are willing to help.A superb food, whether it is breakfast, lunch or dinner. I stayed in many Hilton hotels and have Hilton Honors account, but by far this is the best.

I???ve stayed in hotels worldwide and have to say that Hilton Malta hotel was extremely unhygienic and unkept, mouldy bathrooms, hair on the shower walls, torn carpets, wallpaper coming off the walls...
No complimentary shavers or tooth brushes as you would expect in 5star hotel.
???Sea view room??? turned into building and old air conditioner view room however we have booked Executive Marina view room with lounge access.
No service at the executive lounge at all, experience above average.
Cats around the pool and dinning area. Long wait for service and staff quite abrupt. Extremely long wait for a service around the pool, food served without cutleries or napkins. The chef making the eggs in the dining room was excellent though I rate this Hilton as a maximum 3 star at best, extremely disappointing given this meant to be our babymoon holiday...while we had to curry our own bags as no help offered from the staff.
If you use to 5 star experience probably best to avoid this hotel.

One of the few hotels in the world that do not offer any advantage to HiltonH Gold Members. Just nothing.
Interesting: right after check in you get a SMS ???Welcome, are you happy with your room? Anne???.
We answered making some comments about deviations from the booking. But no reply came, it is a computer generated message that nobody reads.
Only next day another SMS from ???Anne???: How is your stay, rate us from 1 - 10???. Hopefully the computer took note of my answer.
Besides this the hotel is good but overpriced.

“ Wow! Absolutely incredible

Superb hotel - probably the best Hilton we have stayed in anywhere
Lovely rooms, brand new, great view of the marina and kept spotlessly clean by an extremely polite member of the cleaning team...

There are a number of bars in the hotel, all with a slightly different ambience, and all good. The breakfast was excellent, as were the bar snacks
The hotel feels like a resort with a number of pools and a plentiful supply of sun beds. They also have an association with a watersports company at their landing stage, so you can hire a jet ski or get a water taxi right the way into Valletta.
The hotel is in a great area, with loads of bars and nightlife nearby, however the hotel complex itself is really quiet.
Excellent and helpful concierge team, and we used local taxis from the tank outside to get around which we found really reasonable .
Highly recommended.
