Having stayed half-board for one week at the British, we must say there are some very distinct pros and cons. The pros - fantastic views (if you have a harbour-view room); outside dining overlooking the Grand Harbour; excellent location for all amenities and most helpful and pleasant staff. The cons - the food was dreadful, not once were we able... more

I grew up in Malta, left to Australia when i was almost 18. I used to see the British Hotel and always wondered what it would be like to stay there. Let me tell you, i loved it. I was there for 18 nights. Every morning i had breakfast over looking the Grand Harbour with Tourist liners coming in and... more

The staff was helpful and pleasant, made arrangements for taxis, and treated me with great respect. I would not hesitate to stay here again. I also stayed elsewhere in... more

The rooms with ensuites had a toilet, a sink and a shower (or bath) which worked the whole time. The bed linen was changed everyday and the floors... more

We had 5 nights here, the first was in one of the older styled rooms which was clean and cosy.The rest of the stay we were placed in a newly refurbished room which was just lovely. We did not have a view of the harbour and maybe next time we would ask, as we would definatly stay again. The views... more

We left the British hotel with only one regret - we would have liked to stay another week. I had a particular reason for visiting Malta, my father had served in the Fleet Air Arm and RAF there both before and during WW2, so it was the sense of history that appealed. From the superb view of Grand Harbour (you... more
