Great hotel. Excellent location, brilliant staff, wonderful food and fantastic entertainment. The rooms were big and spacious, spotlessly clean and with a amazing view.
The hotel offers clean rooms and a very friendly staff, which made the stay pleasant. One of the highlights is the rooftop pool with amazing views. The food is good, although the selection is somewhat limited, and at breakfast there were no pancakes or omelettes available. If you are renting a car, parking can be an issue. Overall, the hotel is a good choice, especially outside of the high season.
A 3 night stay All Inclusive to visit some of Malta’s famous history.
Overall the Qawra Palace is superb base, though it’s a big hotel which takes some navigating at first. I also must say it’s very busy, especially in the restaurant - we visited in Feb so I can only imagine what it is like peak season. The rooms are clean but I’m glad we upgraded to a sea view. The food is varied, good quality & plentiful. If you are staying in the cooler months, the sun shines a lot longer on floor 11, where you’ll find the rooftop pool.
Good hotel in a quiet location excellent helpful friendly staff. Food choices could be mordant varied but well worth the price we paid.

The pictures in my opinion on the booking sites are nothing like what we were given. The room was dirty - cleaners only empty bins and wash out drinking cups with water, there is no deep clean even when we requested this twice - bedding was not changed.
The food was really nice
Staff are polite but it’s ashame the guests aren’t - no please and thank yous and they seem to walk into you!
Staff, specifically manager, were terrible. The entertainment staff were excellent. The food was very blah, not what I would expect from a high end hotel. The on tap wine was gross. Will never return.
Brilliant facilities, friendly staff, great food and the surrounding area had so much to do and plenty of regular transport links to explore other parts of Malta
a large hotel that caters for all ,entertainment good ,staff ,front desk all very helpful ,food options varied and the option to eat at the smaller resturants a very nice idea .Good location to explore the island .would like to return soon
All excellent only we were all inclusive and at checkout we could not keep our wristband on to eat lunch or snacks which was unfair as we were entitled to the lunch which we did not eat on our first day of arrival
+ Room was nice.
+ Balcony sea view was lovely
- Bathroom shower was flooding quite alot.
- All inclusive drinks were quite poor choice - cocktails made from machine.
+ Food was delicious and plenty of choice.
+ Staff all friendly.
