Bella Vista Hotel Hero

To be honest, after a two-week stay. The end of December was the holiday season 😉 . It is difficult to find positive impressions from this hotel, even saying that for the money it wasn't bad, doesn't make sense. You can overlook the uncomfortable mattresses, the room with a view of the wall, with no access to natural light. At this price, it wasn't that disappointing either. Furniture from the 80s. And a non-working refrigerator. It's hard to survive. But in a 6-story hotel, there were only 2 elevators that were broken at the same time, at best one worked. Which didn't change the fact that it was always busy and older people had to struggle with the stairs to the sixth floor on their own. The hotel had amenities, as shown in the pictures as a wonderful indoor pool with a jacuzzi and a gym, as well as a games room with a billiards table. The reality was different.  The pool had dirty water, the jacuzzi had bubbles, but it didn't heat the cold water. And the pool tables had torn covers, the pool cues were broken. The white ball jammed in the table. After throwing in one euro.
HOTEL SERVICE!!!
- 8:30 in the morning, entering without rinsing, to the room. With.
Changing towels by the service.
- the lady even at the Reception, couldn't explain. Where is the hotel gym located with a lack of courtesy? The only hint she gave me was that it was by the pool. But.
Personally, I had to look for which pool was open? Outdoor?, or indoor? Inside the building?.
- breakfast, dinner hotel service. They always started with a long queue at the entrance to the hotel restaurant. Then the service, without greeting, with a serious expression on their face, would show two or three fingers on their hand, meaning. How many people wanted to a table sometimes turned out to be standing at the front of the queue.  I had to wait longer because the larger number of people behind me suited the staff better. So they came earlier and I was left out. But when I finally managed to enter the restaurant, another queue was waiting for me. For the toaster. And then another queue for the main course. This made it in vain to look for a smile from anyone. But to be fair, a small part of the staff tried to smile but some, as if they were working there as a punishment, were very assertive and with their commanding approach I felt like a camp pupil. Food was served only and exclusively by the staff behind the plexiglass, who did not fully understand English. In the morning, drinks were available for breakfast. But for dinner, only theirs and only for a fee. We were not informed about this in advance, which caused our disappointment. I agree with other opinions, the food was monotonous. No fruit, and I could go on like that? Long hours, but the subject.  It is exhausted, in other negative descriptions by customers, which I agree with. The hotel is a mistake, it does not deserve four stars, I will add at the end that there were also parties until late hours, which were heard in the rooms, and then late hours loud guests walking in the corridors. I do not recommend Bella Vista Hotel. For this money you can find something better. Avoid with a wide berth. I hope that my long opinion will help you make. The right decision to spend a joyful holiday in Malta :)

No good

Disappointed stay, while all the staff are lovely and the main parts of the hotel are nice the rooms sadly let the hotel down. Cheap beds with old mattresses the linen is washed out and grey as are the towels. The rooms are kept clean but it’s very low budget and low cost linen and towels the pillows are awful lumpy horrible things. If the hotel owners were prepared to spend some money on the place it wouldn’t be a bad place to stay. 
I’d say not suitable for young children or families.

Disappointed

From the moment we arrived, we realized we had made a huge mistake. Our room was tiny, old, and dirty. The furniture was dusty and in terrible condition – the chairs were broken (one even collapsed under our child!), and there was only one working outlet in the entire room, located near the TV, which barely worked (and the remote didn’t work at all). Charging our phones, headphones, and other devices was a nightmare.

The bathroom was even worse. The towels were dirty and gray (compared to our own towel, the difference was shocking!), the bathtub was old, and there were holes in the ceiling from which cockroaches crawled out in the evening. The ceiling fan barely worked and was hanging on by a thread. At night, we had two options: suffocate in the heat or open the balcony door and listen to the constant noise of passing cars.

The hotel advertises a pool, but it was another disappointment. The tiles were chipping, the jacuzzi was old, and the shower cabins had broken doors. I saw grown men getting stuck inside and kicking the doors open. Unfortunately, I got stuck myself, and if it weren’t for my child bringing me my phone under the door, I wouldn’t have been able to call reception for help. A staff member had to remove the entire door to get me out, while my child was left alone in the pool, feeling anxious and scared.

The food was another disaster. The so-called “all-inclusive” is a joke – the selection was extremely poor, everything was overcooked and greasy. Food was handed out behind a plastic screen, and the waiters actively avoided guests. In the morning, they worked quickly, but during lunch and dinner, they did their best not to approach tables, making it impossible for guests to order drinks. I had to eat my food dry, complained to a waiter, but nothing changed the next day.

Customer service was appalling. When I went to reception to explain the problems, the receptionist just shrugged and made it clear that she didn’t care at all. We decided to leave three days early, but they refused to refund us for the remaining nights and didn’t even attempt to make things right.

Final verdict: This hotel is dirty, old, poorly maintained, with awful service, cockroaches, broken furniture, and non-functioning amenities. I strongly advise against staying here!

Terrible hotel – don’t make the same mistake we did!

No way 4 star! 2 yes. It isnt in st pauls bay to start with ! Lifts didnt work most of the time, staff split 50/50 between sullen and not wanting to help, or really great like the girl who cleaned our room. Cant check in till 2, not mentioned when we booked!!! Had to hang around for 3 hours. Must be able to get decent pillows, the ones we had felt like small cut up cubes of foam!!! Beds were odd singles shoved together, Food, well aside from being pointed at and hurried along it was at best mediocre.  Now coffee and tea etc in rooms, be aware if you are not in a superior room or all inclusive you have to buy it from the shop but if you are either of those categories make sure you tell them snd then they will top you up. All in all not the best place if you believe the hotel description and some staff who are miserable with others who are great

Not 4 stars!!!

I’d like you to re-think your decision to come here!
This place was ment to be a family relaxation establishment, yet we all feel less enjoyable with the stay each minute. Food was not worth it. Why should you have to pay more, but the drinks aren’t all inclusive? Moreover it’s the same food each day. (Breakfast, Lunch, & Dinner). Consisting of a mediocre beans, cold egg, chicken with bones, and chips. (And the chips was only once) this place is not for picky eaters or children rarely hot and goodluck on the toilet. In fact discussing the room is a whole other topic. The hotel room was fairly clean the balcony on the corner was a bummer no sunlight. The dust was a hand full. Bathroom. It was a sticky bathtub and not so comfortable to any tall people or anyone overweight, also the room had a disfunctional television and hairdryer that isn’t in the bathroom. We all had to have so much diners and lunches outside of the hotel which isn’t fair as we paid an all inclusively bundle. And vacuity there was no entertainment at night, The elevators merely and broke down quite frequently, steep steps. Games room is practically nonexistent and not sustainable in the slightest everything is broken in there. The Pool. Oh the pool was below minus Celsius, egregious, I mean how cold it was was embarrassing to say the least. Rarely anyone was even in it! (To be fair the inside pool was better definetly) No saftey because there was no Lifeguards honorable mention; The workers, from the front desk they was quite mean. The waitresses/waiteress, they were quite pushy and shoved their non-inclusive drinks into your face. But quite too quick at putting your food away -which was fine just a glimpse of an observation- The corner shop next to the front desk was tacky. There quotation is there the cheapest around the area. Which is inconsistent and fairly wrong, all it was, cheap faulty souvenirs, and the lady working there was slow and acted grouchy. Malta in generally was a beautiful country with lots do but the hotel generally wasn’t good enough…
There felt no positivity or sustainability in this hotel far enough. Another example of what I mean is the horrible menu. PLEASE the hotel still had stuff and the menu dates back to 2020. That’s why there is NO pizza or anything in that because the hotel is slouchy and a lazy fest. 5-6 YEARS they could have changed it. But no cause the lacking was crazy.
I hope to quintessential and hopefully reconsider no wonder why it was cheap enough.
