"I would rate this hotel 4 out of 5 stars.
The Grand Hotel Excelsior offers everything you would expect from a five-star resort: indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a well-equipped fitness center, multiple restaurants and bars, and excellent amenities. The hotel is also spotless, very well maintained, and the staff is genuinely attentive and welcoming.
That said, the property feels frozen in the early 2010s and is due for a major renovation. The exterior showed significant peeling paint in several areas, some of the furniture was noticeably worn, and there were no power outlets near the beds, making it inconvenient to charge phones and other devices overnight. The lack of USB charging ports—other than on the television—was also disappointing for a hotel of this category.
Despite these shortcomings, the atmosphere and service made for a pleasant stay. I especially enjoyed the souvenir shop and appreciated that the hotel has a renowned pastry chef, which was reflected in the quality of the desserts. With some modernization, this hotel could once again fully live up to its five-star rating."
"Staying at the Corinthia Palace was such a treat. From the fantastic service to the amazing food. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves & did not want to come home. The room was so spacious & comfortable, with a lovely sized balcony. Big, comfortable beds & a choice of pillows if needed. Even the slippers were comfortable. The pool was wonderful! The sun loungers were easily available… no sun-bed hogging is allowed. Large towels are supplied & cleared away afterwards. Staff are on hand offering amazing poolside service (there’s even a buzzer if you want to order anything). There’s a nice choice of restaurants with something on the menu for everybody, and we enjoyed live music in the evenings in the Caprice Lounge. Breakfast was fantastic! £25 each with a huge choice of buffet & made to order menu options. Lots of choices for drinks from tea/coffee to juices & even iced lattes. We were stuffed! There are only a couple of small things to note. Getting in/out of the main doors with luggage was a bit of a faff as the doors were closed/heavy & nobody to help (wouldn’t have been an issue if my husband was with us). Also, the room was a bit tired around the edges and could do with a freshen up. Lastly, there’s not much around the hotel (which for us was great!). There is a free hotel shuttle service though. We didn’t use it as we’d stayed elsewhere to explore, then spent our last few days exclusively at the Corinthia Palace to rest. Overall incredible, thank you, we will 100% be back!"
"Great apartment-type of accommodation. Fully equipped kitchen, fridge, comfy bed, two patios, and conveniently located by Valetta. Host was communicative and check in was easy."
