"My family of five (all adults) stayed in two rooms at the Holiday Inn Express Malta by IHG for four nights. The hotel is at a perfect location, close to shops, the beach, restaurants, and plenty of night life.
The rooms are clean, and the beds are comfortable. The rooms with a balcony have a beautiful view of the beach — though it does get loud at night because of the bars and clubs below. Quieter rooms are available on the other side of the building.
We thoroughly enjoyed the perks of accessing some of the Intercontinental facilities, including the rooftop and indoor pools, gym, sauna, steam room, and cold plunge. Note that many locals have a membership to the gym and they have access to the same facilities so things do get busy in the evenings.
What makes this hotel special are the people. Thank you to Gvantsa at the front desk for finding us two rooms on the same floor, and for moving us after multiple attempts to get the air conditioning to work. Also, thanks to Jenny from housekeeping for making our sofa bed extra comfortable by adding two duvet covers as a topper. Finally, thank you to Saviour from the breakfast team for going above and beyond to celebrate our parent’s anniversary with a glass of champagne. The staff truly made our stay in Malta special."
