The room was very clean and plenty of room, a quaint little balcony with great view of the streets of Sliema. The staff were very helpful and always smiling and happy to see everyone, very welcoming. Less than a 5 minute walk to the promenade for the bus, so a great location, I would happily stay here again.

We loved the location of the property, walking distance from the fond gadir and many restaurants which made it easy. The room was nice and bathroom also good. The only thing I would mention is that the balcony handrail was not secure.

the staff were very courteous and helpful. We were given a room which was not a superior one. I complained and they moved us to another room the next day.
The room was clean and quiet. It had facilities to make tea and coffee, a tv and internet connection too. Both bathrooms needed proper maintenance as they had mould on the mastic and grout. The sink had no plug so could not be used for shaving or washing.

Good service and value for the money
Everything was good quality for the price! We only wished the beds were softer. The beds were not connected together, so we strapped them together (like we use to when travelling). It was sort of what you expect for this kind of price. We liked our stay and the staff made our journey better!

The Windsor Hotel getting better and better It is my favorite hotel. The service is excellent. The manager, Mr. Trevor, is very professional, kind, and friendly. He always welcomes me. Also, the receptionist day time top man Ganti, is very polite and provides high-quality service and night time Vikhan professional work and kind too. I always feel comfortable and safe during my stay I can't wait to go back again and again.👍

The property is so so! Location is good, quiet and safe. Room is not good in terms of pricing, elevator works but makes sound, no internet in 4th floor, no intercom or telephone in the room. Room service nil. Breakfast has limited options and very same everyday!

The room was fine for a short stay and for what you pay. Staff were very helpful both on arrival and leaving. Although walls are very thin so as a light sleeper I could hear everyone coming and going! Other than that no complaints

Great price and location!
No problems at all. Everything bad that I read in some of the poor reviews on here, didn't apply. Lifts and door locks were fine, the staff were pleasant, and the room was cleaned every couple of days.
It was very quiet on my stay, and I only saw a couple of other guests. Didn't get chance to try out the pools as it was a bit too cold.
Location is good, and it's only a 2-3 minute walk to the bus stop which you can use to travel to the airport, Valletta, St. Julian's etc.
A bargain for less than £25 a night!

Reception staff friendly, but useless when it's about to solve problems.
House keeping knocking at your door before 8am.
Beds are old and unstable. Walls are thin.
Water gets cold after 5 mins. Sometimes there's no pressure in showers. And sink stinks.
Elevator is noisy if you're staying on the upper floors.
Staircase between floor 3 and 4 smells cat piss.
Wi-fi is bad or non-existent in the upper floors.
Sauna isn't working. Poolside not too bad but no views and surrounded by higher buildings.
Breakfast is fine and the only thing worth the price in this hotel, and the staff there are really friendly and professional.
You'd better pay twice the price and go somewhere else, they know the building is old, they know many things are not functional and they just don't care.

Ok for the cheap price.
Maybe that's why there was lots of young people (who are not so quiet on the hallway during nights).
Small balcony in the room was nice.
Breakfast wasn't great and the coffee from the machine was not drinkable.

I was worried about staying here because of the previous reviews. It’s not 4 star but you’re not paying 4 star prices. Room was basic but clean, cleaners came in every day. Staff were friendly and helpful, especially Genti on the front desk. Pool area was nice, location was great, 2 minute walk from promenade and beach. It’s not luxurious but it was cheap and good value for money

Simple hotel at a reasonable price
Simple hotel at a reasonable price.
What could be improved:
* pillows (lumpy) and sheets (too small, so two separate sheets needed to fully cover the bed)
* communication with the clients (I wasn't briefed on the time and the location of the breakfast room, which needed to be accessed from a separate entrance)
Good points:
* Friendly and helpful reception (albeit a bit slow, but we are in Malta, aren't we? :-) )
* Daily service and general cleanliness (although the service could be a bit more consistent: I was getting a different number of towels every time :-) )
* Not too noisy (I may have been more lucky than some other guests who left negative comments. There were some parties happening in the vicinity, but they were clearly people enjoying life rather than trying to be mean to the neighbours)
* Pleasant area, less touristy than some other spots, still with wide variety of food places.

Great location but stay away if possible
Most stuff weren't working. Room key card always faulty. Leaking roof, no wi-fi on second day. Only one of the lifts (super slow) worked.
Otherwise, location was awesome.

Awful place, give it a miss
A very dated hotel. Thankfully I only booked a single night there. Air conditioning didn’t work so they placed a noisy pedestal fan in the room. Bathroom was very old and a bit dirty.
The elevators were terrible with a long wait for them.
The greeting was not exactly polite and zero information given on arrival.
There are two positives. The breakfast is in a different building and is worth taking. The location is pretty good.

This is the third time 2024 that I enjoy staying at the Windsor Hotel in the heart of Sliema, great location close to the sea, restaurant, supermarket and transport, I thank the manager Trever for his services and always welcoming me, topman, as well as his staff Mr. Asvin, honest man. I forgot my cell phone at the seating earea at the reception and handed me my phone when I returned to the hotel as well as Ms. Silvia ( hopefully spelling correct ) the wonderful social girl who offers all the help I need, a responsive and positive girl. There is a nice restaurant attached to the hotel which is great for a special breakfast. I am really very pleased with my stay at the hotel and I feel active during my holiday I can't wait to go back. I definitely recommend this hotel. In fact, the manager Mr. Trever and his team making the Windsor hotel more shiny and lively and positive feeling for me as a customer. Thank you Mr Trever for everything 👍
