Mtarfa Holidays from AU$872

Depending on who you book through, there might be a substantial 'cleaning' deposit required. We were informed of the amount and that it had to be paid online while we were in transit. Luckily, we had a layover that allowed us to do this before arriving at the door. There were problems once we arrived that may have been beyond the control of the owners, such as a last minute requirement to put us in a different unit for one night, but these things can and do happen. The owners were responsive when we contacted them while we were there. The building is in a great location, but beyond that, the rule of travel is that you often get what you pay for.

The staff were friendly but not attentive they gave us a room that was already occupied then the first room was really unsuitable as it was dirty and smelly eventually the room we stayed in was much better but not amazing as it was right at the end of the longest corridor and where the store rooms were so we kept hearing very loud door slams throughout the early morning and during the night too. The breakfast was okay but very crowded we had to wait in a queue sometimes for over 20 minutes. Location was okay but not the best as the taxi’s sometimes got confused where to pick up or drop us. So we will be avoiding Intercontinental hotels in the future.

Stunning beautiful oasis in Malta. It was a short but incredible visit.

The hotel is located perfectly to go and for tourist attractions, restaurants and nightlife. Staff were amazing and so helpful and accommodating. Also, speak to Roberto who has fantastic knowledge of Malta and can help you plan your holiday exactly how you like it. 5 stars and will definitely come back again

The pool areas were good. The staff were welcoming and helpful, unfortunately except for one staff member. There was a variety of food however the hot food was either luke warm or cold.
