The Hotel and our suite was nothing special. The room itself was actually not in a very good condition - the balcony faced a boring back street and had broken floor tiles and a rusty railing. We had a leakage from the toilet ceiling, and the furniture were worn. There is a huge gym with generous opening hours, but the gym staff were neither friendly or helpful. However, we had access to the lounge on floor 15 wich was amazing! The staff was so friendly and provided world class service, especially Njambi deserves big thank you. The lounge service really made our stay!

Fantastic Experience at Intercontinental Malta
Our family visited Malta in August 2024, and our stay at the Intercontinental Malta was exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the impeccable service. Special thanks to Elsa at reception and Katerina Angelkovska, the Guest Experience Manager, for their personalized and efficient attention.
Our 42m² room was spacious and comfortable, with stunning views of the sea and gardens. The amenities were top-notch, including slippers, bathrobes, and an excellent bathroom. Santa, who took care of our room, made our stay even more enjoyable with her outstanding service. Bolong, who looked after our children's room, was equally attentive and ensured everything was perfect for them.
The hotel facilities are luxurious: multiple pools, including a rooftop one, a full-service spa, and a private beach. Breakfast was a highlight, with excellent service and a wide variety of options.
The hotel's location is perfect, with easy access to Malta's attractions and vibrant nightlife. We had a small issue with the bed configuration in our children's room, but the staff quickly resolved it, even with the hotel fully booked.
We highly recommend Intercontinental Malta for a memorable stay. Our family loved every moment!

Close to a small beach, casual and fine dining restaurants near by, fitness center and included. Very big hotel complex. We enjoyed it
10.0 / 10.0
I cannot fault the staff who were absolutely fabulous, there are a few tiny things, but the overall experience is absolutely amazing. The main pool is great with plenty of staff serving pool snacks. Upgrade to include the Opal Lounge, makes the experience so positive, breakfast every morning and then afternoon tea is worthwhile. The resort is great with plenty of food options, especially for a family, well for what we wanted.

Staff are so friendly and helpful, the downside is the pool are crowded both pools
6.0 / 10.0
The staff were great but the hotel was not kept on good enough condition.
First, we had an issue that the room smelled bad. This was caused by mouldy smelling pillows. This took two visits to fix. First they put on new pillow cases, second, they replaced the pillows (the actual cause of the problem).
We had issues with the in room fridge that required two visits to fix, the sink, fixed in one visit, the air conditioning that took two visits to fix and caused a few nights of poor sleep.
Then the was the condition of the hotel. The carpets in the corridors looked like they were never hoovered. I walked past the same debris day after day.
They had two pool tables but the cues were in a poor state.
The hotel has three swimming pools which is good, bit you have to pay €60 per person to use the pool on the top floor.
We asked to have some laundry done for us while we stayed and I was horrified to find out that our socks, t shirts etc cost is ~€148 to have washed. This seemed like daylight robbery, but I guess we should have enquired about the cost first.
The breakfast was mostly good but my wife did find the fish a little dodgy the day we left and I found some baked goods a bit stale on occasion.
The area the hotel was based was party central. As such, it was always busy. The street we took most days to go out for dinner was busy, dirty and smelly.
One night we were woken by lads on the room above us singing, shouting and stomping at 1am.
Looks nice, but not good enough

Beautiful hotel, all the facilities you could expect for the price. Breakfast was awesome with plenty of options. Staff is efficient and ready to help. Tea and coffee making facilities are available in bedrooms.
Everything was good but one humble suggestion if they could install a new air conditioning system. It seemed quite outdated and inefficient. The air conditioner vents were black due to dirty filters and in desperate need of cleaning.
10.0 / 10.0
Very clean. Staff excellent. Enough activities for the kids. Well placed rear entrance avoids the bustle for a taxi via Bolt app. Nearby shops very useful and sell everything. Breakfast pricey but has a great variety. Lunches and dinners all good.

Intercontinental Malta could do with a face lift but staff were really nice and accommodating. BENJAMIN from the reception was incredible helpful with checkout. My parents really liked him and also the breakfast staff was soooo welcoming and sweet. Really outstanding staff!!! The beach club is an essential add-on that makes it super worth it to book with your hotel!!

We loved our stay here the staff in opal lounge (arjanve, mary and sopo) were amazing. They suggested places to visit with kids and could not do enough for us. Rakesh in the restaurant downstairs was great he washed out babys bottle and filled it with milk, as did the ladies here.
We travelled with two small kids (2y and 4y).
Pros:
Pool was perfect for kids
Staff were always happy to help
The rooms were nice and clean
Very close to restaurants walking distance
Little bit of shopping bits around too
Not too far to other locations such as mdina and valletta
Breakfast was amazing even for me whos a vegetarian and a bit of a foodie
Cons
The area is a place for more of nightlife but we had no issues as usually our kids are in bed by 8pm
One evening the hotel water stopped (I assume this is one off)
"Private beach" is not really beachy its more of a bay with some loungers. Although this didnt bother us as the pool was much better for us.

Lovely five star hotel with lots to do around. Staff were polite and very helpful and would go out of their way to help. Lots of options at breakfast. Some of the restaurants/facilities were closed. Shower at the indoor pool is disappointing, needs attention and Air-conditioning unit was not working so the room was a bit warm. A fan was brought to make us feel welcome. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Right from check in to check out the staff were very friendly but efficient. We had Opal lounge and all the staff were very polite and accommodating with any requirements. The Paranga restaurant staff very very welcoming and service was excellent. We were not happy with the manager at Waterbiscuit restaurant, he was very arrogant.

This hotel is horrible. Dark little rooms, buried 7 floors below sunlight - that is the garden rooms here. Pool is tiny and inadequate, nestled next down to a skyscraper under construction, worker leering over your wife as she bathes. Smells of damp in the rooms. Staff are however nice and you make the best of it. Terrible music playing everywhere

Maintenance being carried out at 8:30am wasn’t the wake up call we had in mind.
In addition to this the pool bar staff were very unorganised and didn’t seem to understand how to make the cocktails which are on the menu and were unable to correct the issue.
The over all service was lacking from what you would expect from the 5star hotel and felt more holiday inn level of service. Having now been to the area I think I would consider a number of other hotels over this one.

Loved it!!
8.0 / 10.0
The hotel itself is very nice, mostly clean, in good condition and with good facilities.
However the immediate area is basically clubland. It’s noisy, dirty, and at night sometimes intimidating.
10.0 / 10.0
This has honestly been a once in a lifetime holiday. I have never come across such incredible staff. Nothing was ever too much and they all went out of their way to make sure we were happy, from gluten free food options to chocolates to help bribe my fussy son to eat and everything in between. Thank you all so much!!
4.0 / 10.0
Not a 5 Star experience at all.
Hotel is NOT located on a private beach as per listing. Hotel actually has very small roped off section of St Julian's public beach located in the towns tiny cove.
Location of hotel is approx 300 metres away in the middle of a very busy street that is part of a one way system with heavy vehicle use.
There is an extraordinary amount of high rise construction in the area immediately surrounding the hotel. It is noisy, dusty and vehicle access to the hotel is frequently restricted by lorries delivering materials to the construction sites. Given the proximity and volume of construction in the area we feel the hotel should make guests aware at the time of booking as there is no doubt that it made it very difficult to enjoy our stay. As a heads up, the hotel opposite is advertising that their building work is not expected to complete until Summer 24.
I would also caution families with young children against using the hotel. St Julians is a busy resort with a very established adult night life. The hotel hosts single sex groups of young adults who were noisy and inconsiderate of other guests when they left the hotel in the evening (circa 11.30pm), came back in the morning (from 4.30am) and at breakfast where it was clear they had been out partying all night and had come to sober up.
Perhaps as a result of the above the hotel looks and feels tired. The decor and general maintenance is below par all of which contributed to the less than 5 star experience

Easter in Malta, beach was closed at the beginning, infinity pool was opened in the middle of our stay. Hotel is old, realny big, needs renovation.

The hotel is very good , the only downside was managing my young kids outside with the traffic and people and limited walkways. Friday and Saturday nights especially busy with loud music coming from outside.

This hotel is in more of a party zone. The hotel rooms are dated a bit and dark. The staff are amazing and the Dailey breakfast was a 10/10.

The hotel Staff are exceptional . Extremely professional and good humans . The hotel
It self needs updating and capital being spent. This is a 4* hotel rather than 5 . The surrounding area is ideal for the younger generation.
