Lovely modern room and shower. Spotlessly clean and refreshed every morning. Spacious, fridge, safe, tea and coffee. Breakfast plentiful. Staff helpful and courteous. Warning hotel has no bar but rows of bars and restaurants within walking/stumbling distance.

On the 13th floor w spectacular view of the marina from a large patio. The room was very clean and bed quite comfortable. The pool and loungers on the 14th floor was beautiful with the kindest bartender and great view. Location is perfect for transit access- ferry, bus and Bolt (their Uber). The staff was so pleasant. Breakfast was good. Tip: the convenience store across the street with stock you up with anything you need. Get yourself bottled water as the hotel does not sell it aside from at the pool deck. I really enjoyed my 5 night stay and would recommend it to anyone.

Room was very clean, although we did not have a view from our room, though it did the job as it is in an ideal location just off the strand near hundreds of restaurants and the marina. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful, breakfast buffet was great. View from the rooftop pool area was amazing.

Our stay at Alavits was perfect. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly and always very pleasant to chat to each day. Our room was absolutely perfect! Great size and great amenities. Perfect for a family and lived the rooftop pool with a great view over Malta. We were so happy during the entirety of our stay. 😊😊

Clean, modern hotel room. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffet was bountiful with many gluten free options. Wish the room had an iron (I'm sure I could have called down for one), and that there was a fan in the bathroom to help control humidity (a losing battle in Malta, though).

The hotel was very clean and comfortable, the breakfast was very good. It was set back from the busy road which was good as no traffic noise could be heard at night. It was in a central location with plenty of eating places nearby and just a 10 minute walk to the ferry crossing for Valetta. I would definitely recommend staying here when visiting Malta.

Overall great hotel. Staff very helpful and excellent location! Only thing we found was that the doors in the rooms weren’t the best at keeping the sound from the corridor out and the pool walls could’ve done with some tlc and descaling!!

We got transferred from the newer, better-rated hotel (Alavits) to an older, lower-rated ST hotel nearby (Bayview), apparently as the air-conditioning wasn’t working in our room. However, from our new room, we could see the Alavits hotel and saw guests checking in to the corner junior suite we had asked to be allocated to celebrate a milestone birthday. We should have got a partial refund as Bayview is older and cheaper to book than Alavits. While we still had a large terrace, it was lower in height than the other hotel, and, although closer to the water, it had less privacy as people from the pool could see us. The pool facilities were not great and did not seem very clean. We used the spa inside; it had broken tiles, black things floating in the water, and mould/algae on the tiles at the water level. The room was very small, and the sun/heat stopped us from using the terrace for most of the day, so we felt confined. We had incredibly noisy guests next door to us, who brought other people onto their balcony, singing and shouting loudly after the 11pm noise curfew. We were so tired after travelling the first night, we didn't have the energy to make a complaint, but the noise continued, so after making a complaint the next night, the hotel informed us of their one strike policy. Thankfully, the guests took notice and our final night was much better and quieter. The breakfast was adequate, but best to go early. The juice didn't taste right (syrup?). Very walkable to locations.

Great location

Hotel is a great location, and easy walking and ferry access to the sites. Room was spacious and quiet and breakfast had a great selection. Car park is at sister hotel in basement, and approx 5 min walk, and very safe to leave car. Checking a bit slow, but other from that would stay here again.

Great location in Gzira/Sliema, right across from the bus stop and the water/boardwalk. Good breakfast spread. Nice pool and terrace, but not enough sun coverage. Good family room with 4 beds, but there is a lack of hooks on the walls that have nothing on them, as well as no counter space in the bathroom. As the balconies are interior, people smoke on them, and the smell comes into the room through the door that doesn't close 100%, which was a nuisance. All in all a great option!

Walking distance to everything you could need.

Lovely hotel situated just a few minutes walk from restaurants and bars spread across the bay into Sliema. Side sea view from our room on 10th floor. Pool with great views out to Valletta on the 14th floor - pool is quite small and is only suitable for cooling off rather than swimming - the bubble section of the pool was great though for relaxing. The hotel provide towels to use by the pool, but there arent always some available on the stand. Pool bar is not open for long during the day, no timings advertised anywhere for it. Sadly there is only 1 hook in the bathroom, but none elsewhere which wasnt ideal. No where to hang wet towels or swimwear, nor did it have a washing line like in most hotels. Breakfast was just your average choice as in any hotel. Staff were super attentive and helpful throughout our stay. Always someone to greet you when entering or exiting the lobby. Overall we had a great stay, value for money was fantastic and we would stay here again if we come back to Malta.
