Located on a narrow peninsula, little has changed since the Knights of St John built Valletta in the 16th century. It remains one of the world’s finest fortified cities and an architectural masterpiece, home to the majestic Grand Master’s Palace, a magnificent cathedral, national museums and various sites interpreting the city’s rich history. Don’t miss the panorama of Grand Harbour from the ramparts. Busy by day, Valletta is quiet by night.

"Big tourist hotel but wonderful location"
We warned the hotel of a very late arrival. There was no one at the door to help with our bags or to park the car. It took nearly 30 minutes to get our keys even though there was no one ahead of us in line. There was only one desk clerk who had to check us in and answer all the calls to the front desk. The next morning we discovered that there was no […] hot water in our bathroom sink, the cord to the lamp on the nightstand was frayed down to the wires and didn't work, the toilet didn't flush well, and the carpet was very stained. We moved to another room but the carpet in every room seems to be very dirty. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hotel Excelsior"
The internet did not work properly and was dificult to log on. Room service should be avoided due to very low quality of food. The rest of the hotel was great.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Decent hotel"
This was a nice hotel overall. It's really close to Valletta, less than a 10 minute walk gets you right in to the heart of the city. The one annoying problem we had was that we wanted to use the indoor jacuzzi but the water was cold. We told them about this multiple times but they never did anything about it. Other than that it was a pleasant stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Close to the old town of Valetta and to transport"
Stay was great, however the was no free internet even though there was a business centre. A five star hotel that does not give you free internet was poor because travelling through Europe and staying at 4 and 3 star hotels which provided free internet. Also there were also too many functions at the hotel and would have liked to stay out near the pool […] till much later than 7pm. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great swimmingpool with sea views"
We enjoyed our stay, don't normally stay in such big hotels as prefers smaller establishments. But we can not fault the service or the amenities. Great set up. Had a lovely Asian Buffet one evening in the restaurant. Food was out of this world: lovely prepared, well presented and staff very attentive. Breakfast buffet also incrediabl: very wide choice […] and all very fresh. Pool area beautiful with great views over Manuel Island. Pool bar and pool restaurant well run.

"Next to Old City... nice views"
Nice location in Valetta. 5 min walk to old Valetta centre/Bus station. Spa / Pools nice & convenient for family. Room is nice...a water/port view is good enough...no need to spend extra for a waterfront room. All views to the port.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Grand Hotel Excelsior - good central location"
We had a great time staying here - good quiet location and only a short walk from central Valleta. Staff were helpful & friendly. Apart from breakfast we only had a sandwich lunch on one day at the hotel so can't really comment on the food - but I did think it was a bit off that a 5* hotel should charge extra if you wanted a decent cup of coffee with […] breakfast. Apart from that I enjoyed my stay & certainly appreciated the indoor pool. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to Valletta but some downsides"
Just a few minutes walk from Valletta and ideal if you want to use buses to get round the island as the bus station is at the top of the hill but: - service a bit haphazard (but very friendly) - no service by the pool (ok -it is the off season) - on the side of a hill: difficult access if you cannot walk well - we did not think breakfast was worth the […] money (19 Euro each and they don't know how to make a croissant!)

"Not my idea of a five star hotel."
on the negative side of our stay at this hotel. We were given a room that was not suitable for 3people one of which was a 12yr old girl and she was given a camp bed to sleep on! When I went down to ask for another room I was told we shall change her bed and see what we can do. We shall be in contact with you very soon. The bed was changed for another […] style of camp bed and no one from the hotel contacted us about the change of our room. We stayed in this room for our weeks stay. On our 2nd last day I had to go down to reception at 8 15pm to enquire as to why it was that our room had not been cleaned at all that day despite the fact that I had left the PLEASE MAKE UP MY ROOM tag on the door, I waited as long as I could, but by this time we needed our room cleaned so we could use it! The cleaner came up and was trying to blame someone else for her mistake, I found the whole episode unprofessional and not the standards I would expect of a 5star hotel. On the positive side they left a complimentry bottle of wine that evening to say sorry! I found a lot of the waiting staff and bar staff untrained and unsure of themselves and their duties again not to the standards of a 5star hotel. The hotel itself was clean and plush, no expense was spared to decorate and it was Idealy situated for exploring the island. There were no activities for children or young teenagers so give this hotel a wide berth if you are on a family holiday. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Fantastisk ophold"
Fantastisk service, glad, venligt og hjælpsomt personale. god morgen buffet. Fantastisk udendørsområde. Gode værelse. Alt i alt en uforglemmelig oplevelse.

"Semesterlyx för barnfamiljen"
Spatiösa utrymmen och barnen älskade poolerna, både inomhus och utomhus. Fantastisk frukost men se upp med dyra extra kostnader som lätt kan smyga in utan att de tydligt informerar. Ett litet minus också för den minst sagt trafikfarliga gatan upp mot stadens centrum.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Super belligenhed med 5 velfortjente stjerner."
Hotellet ligger supergodt og meget tæt på Valletta. Dejligt poolområde både ude og inde. Vi var der 4 dage i efterårsferien og vejret var genialt. Vi var glade for at vi valgte at bo i Valletta frem for noget andet sted.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Perfekt beliggenhet"
Beliggenheten er perfekt, det tar bare få min å gå til gamlebyen eller hoved bussholdeplassen. Bassengområdet er veldig fint og man kan bade i sjøen ved siden av bassenget hvor man også får utdelt badehåndklær. Stort treningsrom og Spa avd. Husk at de fryser 50 euro per dag på kortet ditt. Skal det "pirkes" på noe så må det være at vegg til vegg teppet […] på rommet var veldig flekkete og ikke rent, noe som man så på leggene til vår krabbende ettåring og at vi ikke synes maten på uteserveringen ved bassenget tilsvarte 5 stjerner.... Hotellet kan anbefales og solen med sine 30 grader i oktober var som ønsket...... Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Et fantastisk sted"
Vi hadde et fint opphold på hotellet. Vi fikk vann, kunne lage te/kaffe på rommet, og alle fikk små søte sjokolader ved senga etter rengjøring på kvelden. Det at vi ikke trengte å ta med håndklær var veldig bra. Her hadde de alt du trengte. Jeg satt pris på bassengområdet, der jeg kunne trene så mye jeg ville. Morgenbuffeten var nydelig. Kokken laget […] det du ville ha av omelett og pannekaker, og det var ingen andre ting du manglet heller. Kort vei til by og bussområdet var helt topp. Du reiser for litt over 20 kr. med buss et helt døgn hvis du vil. Greit og rimelig. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Hotel Excelsior à La Valette"
L'hotel est très bien situé, près du centre de la Valette et de la gare routière, base de départ idéale pour les visites de l'île. Les prix pratiqués pour le week-end de Noel, tant pour les chambres (de grand confort avec petit déjeuner copieux) que pour le repas du réveillon (buffet excellent) étaient raisonnables. Bref, que des bons souvenirs...Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Super Lage zu Valetta"
WIr waren über die Feiertage in Malta. Vom Hotel ist man zu Fuss in wenigen MInuten in der Stadt. Leider war der Indoor Pool etwas sehr kalt, sodass wir ihn nicht mehr benutzten. Wäre gut zur Überbrückung des teilweise schlechten Wetters gewesen. Ansonsten waren wir sehr zufrieden.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Un hôtel bien placé à l'entrée de La Valette avec un parking gratuit et surveillé. Une piscine et un accès à la mer pour nager à sa convenance. Un petit déjeuner inclus dans la prestation de très bonne qualité. Une chambre double avec vue sur mer très sympa (Demander la chambre 620 si vous êtes 4, les deux pièces sont bien distinctes ! avec douche ET […] baignoire) Bref, si je retourne à Malte, j'y retournerai sans hésiter.

"Hotel Grand Excelsior - La Vallette - Malte"
Hotel : service impeccable, parfait, quelle que soit l'heure et quelle que soit la nature de la demande. Etat et entretien : parfait, entretien et nettoyage quasi permanent par les équipes de l'hotel. Propreté chambre : rien à redire. Service quotidien très soigné et discret. Confort : matelas très (mais vraiment très très) fermes. Lits enfants totallement […] inconfortables. Climatisation extrèmement bruyante. Situation : prévoir une marche (courte mais sportive) pour accéder au point d'intérêt le plus proche (rue commerçante de la république). Pour le reste : taxis ou voiture de location (attention à la conduite à gauche) Environs : la vue n'est pas sur la mer mais sur un canal portuaire (celui de la Marina) et les ruines d'un fort. Pas de plage, baignade à l'hôtel à la piscine ou sur la mini plage de l'hôtel (donc dans le canal portuaire). Général : nous avons été satisfaits de notre séjour à l'hôtel Excelsior.

"Loved the Excelsior."
The hotel is beautifully located close to the city of Valletta. Only 5-10 minutes walk up a small hill. Great with the option of swimming in either the pool or the sea. Excellent facilities and service. If you dont fancy restaurant guests looking into your hotel room, and can skip the seaview I would recommend room 852. The only minus I have is that […] the drinks served at breakfast is not the coldest, and the food is a bit salty for my taste - but I am picky. The car service with the Cadillacs is superb. The hotel is known for its celebrities. I met Dionne Warwick in the reception. I would either stay at this hotel or the Hilton when I come back. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
