All areas of the hotel were clean. The staff were very polite and helpful. The food was good, not excellent, it was buffet style but you didn’t get to plate it yourself. Good choice of drinks with All inclusive. Didn’t get to use the pools, only small but the looked good. We would probably book again.

Average hotel

The hotel had a good breakfast buffet and dinner was reasonable priced I ate it once. I only stayed due to the good value per night and it been a 4 star, its not of 4 star standard in Ireland but I guess you dont need much to be a 4 star in Malta.

Very good customer service, staff was attentive and helpful. Transport from hotel was very safe and convenient. Busses ran on time and on a whole everything was cost effective, especially the shop within the hotel. Also the hotel decor is fitting regarding the time it was built. There are mordern hotels in the area, but it is obvious these buildings have been built recently and cannot be compared to Bella Vista Hotel.

Didnt like the fact that they didnt suppy water gym on 1 person in at a time, couldn't take towels to pool, no shampoo in bathroom, called down to fix the leaking water in toilet and no one came to fix it. One light out in the room upon arrival and the fridge was leaking. There was also water on the floor had to put a towel down so my mum wouldn't fall.

Staff were exceptional. The hotel is a little out of the way from bars / restaurants / Activities. (Except for the park across the road). Also parking is difficult (it always is in Malta though). Sitting outside the front is very noisy due to busy road. The pool area is fine.

This hotel is in a great location close to shops and promenade with an easy access to buses and other locations by car The room was thoroughly cleaned everywhere including washing the floor and make the beds look pretty. The breakfast was nice and I like the idea of being served rather than self service. This makes it more hygienic. Evening entertainment was great and the bar staff were really friendly. Will definitely return. Also liked the shop near the reception. Friendly lady served us and the prices are reseobable.
