Gillieru Harbour Hotel

Probably the best location in St Paul’s bay. Just off the main busy tourist area. Lovely pool area, plenty of sun beds. Beds were comfy and balcony overlooking the pool and the bay. Breakfast was good, and plenty of it. As with all buffets a bit of pot luck as to how fresh the hot food was when you turn up. The only issue preventing me giving the hotel an outstanding review was the maintenance. Considering this was the start of the season it seems that little work had been done on maintenance. The pool floor was stained, the fence to the baby pool was rotten, the door to the shower was beginning to rot and the bedroom ceiling tiles were ill fitting Other than that it is a great hotel!

This hotel has one of the best locations on the Island. On arrival it was a speedy check in and access to room. The staff pleasant and helpful. Rooms are clean with usual tea making facilities and filtered water machines available in corridor. Bathroom is disappointing, no shelves for towels or toiletries. The shower facility is inefficient. The large overhead shower is not practical for having a decent shower. Too high up so cannot be adjusted, needed descaling so was squirting water out of the cubicle. No shower mats. Seating facility in the reception is fine with an adjoining Cafe staffed by pleasant staff. Menu was a bit odd, scrambled egg on toast comes with a deluge of chickpeas! At the back of the hotel there is another restaurant. Only 1 visit for breakfast. A Continental breakfast laid out and a separate area-for cooked breakfast. In my opinion, not a hospitable way to have breakfast, a bit disjointed and not good value for money. Choice of bread was limited and no option for traditional Maltese fare -bread, pasties? etc. Bearing in mind this was April, the pool and area was not open, however it was sunny and warm - it would have been nice to sit/lie on a sun bed reading or just taking in the amazing view! Airport transfers were easily arranged here, prompt and reliable. Such potential, just needs a bit more thinking about guests’ comforts and enjoyment.

Bar closes at 9pm? Bar music came on at 6.30am in the morning? No air conditioning.

Staff was nice, sea view from the balcony was amazing, they provided exactly what you expected. Blanket was thin but I think it was to accommodate the heat? Pool was out, but personally don’t think I would have had time for it with all the nice beaches around the country

Good staff, nice room and good locations

Another lovely stay in this nice hotel . I had a great room with two balconies overlooking the harbour . Very peaceful and tranquil. The staff are so friendly and helpful . Will definitely go back again 😊

Super top!! Kann ich nur empfehlen.

I have stayed here many times and always feel welcome and cared for here . I had a lovely room with a beautiful view of the harbour and i liked how my balcony wasn't looked upon . The A C was very efficient and i had plenty of room considering i was a solo traveller 😊 lovely staff as always . I will definitely return👍

A nook of Paradise! Maltese hospitality at it's best!

The accomodation was amazing, great place to swim and explore the area.

There was loud reggae music blasting at night. The room is next to a karaoke type bar where people were screaming.

Great!

We only stayed for 1 night, and as we had a late check in,we literally just slept there. We paid 10.50€ for breakfast each which was fine, buffet style, plenty of choice, good value for money. Only thing i didnt like was the balcony was tiny , not all were, and as it was 1 night it didnt matter.

A good place, a cool staff, but very small rooms, and the most important : we hear everything! Any sound from the corridor and from other rooms. I love the sea view, the balcony is great, i love the place... but it is impossible to me to stay somewhere so noisy...the first night I couldn't sleep because of a guy in the room next to us talking on phone from 10pm to 1am+, next night it was TV sound from two rooms. I don't understand how it is possible to enjoy a stay in these conditions. I Had to move to another hotel asap.

2nd time we have stayed here. Staff are always so friendly and helpful which makes it a great place to stay. I do feel the rooms are a bit tired and could probably benefit for a freshen up. Other than that lovely place great location.

Ice hotel

Clean room, friendly staff and great location. Quiet area but still walkable to all the bars and shops in Bugibba.

Nice clean good location and helpful staff

The views were spectacular and the locations extremely convenient... the breakfast was lights and worth the add on.

This hotel has some good things and bad things, good is the location and not noisy ( except one night with load birthday party lasting till midnight). But the rooms are not great and charging 3 euros a night for safe and it’s tiny not attached to a wall, when most don’t charge now. Also spent most of holiday with poor cold showers with low water pressure. Took 4 complaints to get someone to respond. They need to sort water problems and better customer service. Also standard of painting in rooms is poor and basic furniture.
