Posizione comodissima, appena fuori da La Valletta storica, raggiungibile a piedi in 5 minuti. Struttura grande ma ben organizzata e molto elegante. Amplissima scelta per la colazione. Servizio impeccabile.

I recently stayed at Grand Hotel Excelsior for Christmas, it was a wonderful experience. The service was impeccable, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious, clean, and well-appointed, making it a very comfortable stay.
That said, there were a couple of minor issues that I feel are worth mentioning. First, while the hotel itself is clearly well-maintained, some of the decor felt a little dated in certain areas. It didn't detract too much from the overall experience, but a bit of modernisation in these spaces could elevate the feel of the hotel even more.
Another small inconvenience occurred when I tried to use the stairs. Although the signs indicated the way, it wasn't entirely clear, and we ended up following a path that felt more like service corridors than guest areas. It was a little confusing and made us feel like we had accidentally ventured "back of house."
The other concern was regarding breakfast. Due to some changes, the breakfast room was moved at short notice, and the new space wasn’t quite as charming as the original one. The breakfast itself was still good, but there was a bit of chaos in terms of the transition, including long wait times.
That said, these were minor hiccups in what was otherwise a fantastic stay. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would return for another stay, as the positives far outweighed the small inconveniences.

Excellent 5 star hotel, very clean. Very friendly staff. Beautiful outdoor pool with views of the ocean and cityscape. Very well stocked and plentiful buffet lunch. A few minutes walk from Valletta

The hotel is 10 minutes away from the ancient city, but the road is 10 minutes sloping and there are many stone steps that make it inconvenient to walk. There was originally a free shuttle, but the local drivers were very lazy and often late, so many guests chose to walk. The hotel service is not good and receives many tour groups. Especially if the staff at the guest concierge ignores you, you may consider staying in other hotels in the ancient city.

No way is this a 5 star hotel.
The public areas are grand but the whole hotel needs a complete make-over.
Reception, check-in / check-out is a shambles.
Breakfast is rugby scrum.
Waiters / waitresses are absolutely useless.
Pool bar service is non-existent.
The bedroom very tired with a grubby carpet.
Very disappointed and again, no way 5 star.

We had a 5day stay at this hotel.
Staff were very friendly, good location as long as you were able to walk uphill.
Hotel is located on a hillside and if you had walking difficulties it would be awkward
to go out on foot. Outstanding food and spacious interior. Great harbour front location.
Convenient distance from Valetta which is great especially at night with outside bars
and cafes.
The hotel Maltese buffet on Weds night was really good and the chance to try out
Maltese food.
All in all a great holiday at a super hotel.

The hotel has slightly outdated facilities, but the service and restaurant are all at a 5-star level. The room has a partial sea view and a balcony for washing and drying clothes. I will stay there again next time I go to Malta.

It is a five-star hotel with good front desk service.
There is also a sports room and swimming pool
It's just that the air conditioner is not powerful, so you can't sleep with clothes on, otherwise it will be very hot.
The bed just didn't have a double bed, so I had to sleep hard.
In addition, the buffet is still worth eating
