Positive: clean room, fresh breakfast, helpfull staff. Negative: no drying rack, no chair and table on the balcony, no cleaning brush for the toilet, no closet, very humid and the dry mode on the AC was disabled.

Breakfast is good!
Ming, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Right in the heart of Malta's night club area, which is extremely busy every evening, particularly weekends. The hotel is very clean with helpful staff. The breakfast was good, but for some reason no fried eggs which I thought was odd.
Alan, 9-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very good stay

Very good stay, superb housekeeping, very good breakfast and lovely staff. I would stay again. It is very close to nightlife but we didn’t find the noise too bad in our second floor room and only heard music on Saturday night.
Amanda, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great hotel! Very safe and close to all the important tourist spots. Also very good continental breakfast.
Rollin, 9-night trip

8/10 Very good

The included breakfast it really lovely. The area is loud with nightlife and construction but nothing ear plugs can’t fix.
Karina, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great property

Very friendly staff. Property was very well maintained and clean. Lots of universal charging points in the room ensuring that you are never too far from your devices.
1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel, excellent staff and customer service.

Superb hotel, breakfast was lovely, rooms were excellent and clean. Spa access was a bonus. A special thanks to Mohani for looking after us. Whilst the hotel is in a busy area for nightlife, the hotel has super thick double glazing so noise wasn't an issue for us.
Andrew, 5-night trip

4/10 Fair

Cleanliness not a problem. Taxi arranged to airport upon arrival (3:00 AM departure). At 3 AM no taxi. had to scramble to get ride. Noise from outside activities very loud - until 2 AM. Tough to sleep. Air flow from heater/cooler aimed directly at bed - not comfortable.
Roy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff and well maintained
Melicia, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Liked the cleanliness of the hotel but the lift card system is inconvenient so is the reception on the 8th floor instead of the ground floor.
Robert John, 9-night trip

8/10 Very good

I like the position, brekfast and the service
tiziana, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Hotel was nice and the staff was very friendly and helpful , but in the neighbourhood there were lots of parties until late at night, therefore quite loud.
Tanja, 6-night trip

The hotel staff was helpful and welcoming. The room is tidy and very cozy.
Pierre, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The stay at Holiday Inn Express was quite fine. Just the breakfast selection could have been a bit better or had been better variations.
Julia Katharina, 11-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Central hotel fir nightlife

Lovely and clean hotel. Very central but away from the noisiest part of Paceville. Free access to adjoining hotel for use of indoor pool and spa was a bonus. Anish on reception was great. Friendly and professional! 👍
Craig, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent service despite 3 AM departure
Cary, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Its most horrible stay I had in Malta for past ten years. The did not even provide water. When I asked for refilling they said breakfast time is over they cannot provide any water. How come hotel do not allow to refill water any time. Staff is very rude and honestly do not recommend any one to stay here. Also their reception is on 8th Floor which is wierd.
Krishna, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Huge room with a good price, very comfortable bed. Breakfast was good enough. Great that customers have access to the InterConti wellness facilities (where I recommend to find a way to cover the floor around the pool and bathroom as it is very slippery). The next door bar area is quite noisy and you can hear the music beat in your room (hence the ear plugs in the room for the guest). Overall good stay!
MIGUEL, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is one of the best 3 star hotels I've stayed in, it feels more like a 4 star in terms of the facilities and amenities that are available, the extremely welcoming staff, the cleanliness and space of the rooms and the area in which it is located. Holiday Inn Express is a part of the IHG Group, and connected to this hotel is the 5 star IHG InterContinental which is accessible via the first floor, and for a small fee, you can access their facilities which includes an indoor pool, spa and wellness centre, as well as an outdoor sky pool and bar. The area around the hotel, although quite noisy at night known as Paceville, has a wide variety of clubs, bars and pubs with a great deal of dining options, whilst the street on which the hotel is situated also houses one of the island's only cinemas as well as one of the best shopping complexes, making it extremely ideal for anyone that doesn't want to venture very far. The room itself was well-kitted out, and the TV (although without smart functionality) had a wide variety of European TV channels. The breakfast included at the hotel was also lovely and featured an outdoor seated terrace, while the food provided was quite nice. Overall, if you're looking for an affordable, yet cozy hotel in a great location and some great amenities, I would highly recommend this place.
Daniel, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good location for the beach, shops, and restaurants. Didn’t realise til we arrived that it was ‘party central’ right next to the hotel, (I had read previous reviews about the noise from it), but we never had a problem sleeping through it as we had a balcony room which had two sets of patio doors, and had the air conditioning on! There is use of the indoor pool, sauna etc at the Intercontinental Hotel, but we didn’t go there during our stay. The staff were all very friendly, polite and helpful. I would definitely stay there again!
