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.

My Review
Very enjoyable stay. Friendly staff throughout. Continental breakfast included full English. Hotel spotlessly clean throughout. Nice medium sized pool. Only downside was tea coffee facilities in room was not being replenished daily. Also had cream pots and not milk no good with tea. Location was excellent base for the night life but a peaceful 15 minute walk away. I would have no hesitation going back.

Pros - Ok location, with free parking. Reception staff pleasant. Cons - Hotel is currently a building site, swimming pool is empty. Can hear drilling from early morning. Balcony doors screwed shut so can’t get any fresh air if you wanted! We have been subjected to abuse from a small thin man with glasses on for the entirety of our trip! On arrival our room was incorrect - 2 beds in a room for a family of 4. This was quickly corrected. We went out for the day, came back to being abused for leaving our room. We had absolutely no idea what had happened whilst being out, and was treat appallingly with young children present! After finding factual information regarding the self-isolation which clearly stated ‘persons arriving after 13:00CET into Malta must self quarantine for 14 days’ it was apparent this wasn’t us - we were in Malta prior to this yet the man in question would not listen or look at what we had to show. Each and every time we have left the hotel we have been abused, the man has screamed at us across the hotel telling us to return to our room etc. Again each time we have offered to show our arrival time into Malta - each time this was disregarded. The room we were told to ‘live’ in was not adequate to spend a day in, never mind 14 days. You were complete bullies, and thought you could demand fees for a 14 night stay including food. No! Me nor any of my family will ever step foot in Malta again! You ruined our trip out of greed!

Christmas break
The Gillieru hotel was very clean and spacious rooms. The breakfast was plentiful and very good but could have been organised a bit better. The reception staff Goran was fantastic and couldn't do enough to help. Always there with a pleasant smile and professional attitude. The cafe and reception area very cosy.

This is a lovely hotel that is very clean, good beds, great balcony views and central location. There are good choices at breakfast. The only complaint is that the restaurant karaoki should finish earlier for people needing to sleep to get up early for flights. Sadly some people think that they have a good voice.

Nice older hotel. Very clean, nice breakfast. Cold pool and pool bar wasn't open when we were there. Not much in the area but 2 very good restaurants close by. Hotel restaurant is good too. But no shops or bars within close vicinity you have to walk 20 mins. Hotel is close to boat tours and hop on bus

Lovely hotel and close to the bay.
Would have been better if we had tea and coffee facilities in our room. The staff are amazing and the new restaurant and bar is great. Some of the rooms need an upgrade but the hotel itself is great
