V Hotel Malta

The hotel is absolutely strategically located in Malta berween St.Julians and Sliema, above Marina Portomaso. Ross bus station 2 minutes from the hotel. The personell is very professional, helpful and friendly. There is a refreshing room with free of charge water, coffee machine, ice tea. Beds and pillows are very comfortable. The balcony room is amazing - towards the whole Sliema gulf and Portomaso Marina. We will deffinitely come back to stay in this hotel next time in Malta and I do recommend it as a good value for money.

I would not recommend this hotel as a “3 star” establishment. I had stayed in this hotel for 7 days, one of the days the toilets had stopped working ALL DAY and had the most horrific smell throughout the room. So I have paid for the luxury of having no toilet?. The “newly renovated” is just another way of saying “we have painted over the existing fixtures (terribly I may add). The shower was dirty and shower tray all chipped. The see through curtain in the room (to separate the shower and bed) was as useful as a chocolate teapot, please note it does not state nor display anywhere the shower situation of the rooms before you arrive. We stayed on the 8th floor and although this hotel has a lift it takes a good 5 minutes sometimes maybe longer to be able to use this as there is a maximum of 4 people allowed in the lift and the majority of the day the cleaners are using this lift with trolleys etc so it is not accessible during the majority of the time. The hallway lights are censored however the sensors do not work very well and every single time I came out of our room to get to the lift it was pitch black unless I walked the length of the corridor to turn the lights on. Out of my 7 day stay I only received fresh towels once without asking and I had to ask every single day for them to be replaced as the cleaners just lifted the dirty ones from the floor and hung them back up? I was told Saturday, Sunday and Monday they had “no fresh towels” as they do the laundry on the weekend and hadn’t had them back yet. Again I’ve paid a lot of money for a place that can’t even provide the basics. We were left with no towels what so ever one day, this is unacceptable. This hotel has a brand new reception area which is very misleading to the standard of the hotel rooms. We received two small bottles of complimentary water on arrival in our room and then never received further the entire time we were there. Please not when receiving a “king bed” it is two separate single beds pushed together (this is not uncommon in places) however it is two completely made up single beds pushed together, single duvets covers, separate sheets etc etc. the only positive I have from my week stay at this hotel is the location is very central but I would not recommend this hotel for any longer then a one night stay based on the cleaning standards and experience I have had.
