SAINT GEORGE GOURNES BAY

Excellent hotel very pleasant staff. Absolutely no complaints whatsoever. The breakfast had everything that anyone would desire. The checkout lady Katrina was efficient, friendly and very professional.

It's the staff that really make this hotel a good experience. The staff are mainly from India, Nepal and Africa, as well as other nationalities and they were always friendly and very helpful. The hotel has about four restaurants and they all serve amazing food. The breakfast choice was really good, although I felt a bit rushed, at times, as the staff were under pressure to clear the tables for the next guests. There is a lot of construction work along the main road leading to the hotel, making it difficult to go out of the resort for short walks. However, this did not interfere with our stay. We did have problems with the young people staying next door to us who were making a lot of noise during the night. We complained about this and it took a second complaint to secure a move to another room. Having said that, the manager dealing with the complaint was very professional and apologetic. She provided us with a free afternoon tea at one of the restaurants as a goodwill gesture. Make sure you visit the hotel just before the main holiday period (June-July) to avoid bumping into loud, inconsiderate parties who visit Malta mainly for the nightlife. We were a middle aged couple looking for a quiet holiday and this hotel (like most hotels) caters for all types - I appreciate this is just business. Overall, a good experience! A well managed hotel.

Bijay has been great and helped us

I stayed at the Corinthia for four days and three nights. I arrived in an hour earlier than check-in and they still have managed to have my room ready for me within 10-15 minutes. This hotel is incredible and I could not recommend it enough. It’s perfectly situated. It’s about a 15 minute walk away from all the night life, the bars, restaurant and supermarket but it’s not close enough that you can hear all the hustle and the noise. The Hotel itself is amazing. It’s beautifully decorated. I don’t know what people are complaining about saying it is old and needs refurbishing I love the authentic look. The breakfast was really nice as well. It wasn’t a huge overwhelming buffet which sometimes is good but everything was perfect and clean and tasty for me. The best part of this entire trip was the staff at the Corinthia from the receptionist to housekeeping, bar staff, breakfast staff, I don’t remember all their names but they were all incredible. The breakfast staff were amazing. They remembered my name always pleasant and smiling and happy the always polite. The hard rock café is being built literally across the hotel but that doesn’t impress me at all. Hard Rock Cafe is so commercialise. I prefer to stay in a hotel that has good vibes and isn’t commercialised and Americanised and suppose that’s what they’re gonna get with a hard rock café they are building but it didn’t impact my stay at all. I think anyone who complains about this Hotel is reaching. There were plenty of sunbeds a few people hogging but not too many. I always found a decent bed in a decent position with shade. It was my first time in Malta and I think staying at Corinthia was definitely the best choice and I definitely would highly recommend it and I would go back and stay in the same hotel again.

Excellent service from Maria, Martina and Annalise, who were both friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. The food was also fantastic fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. A great dining experience from start to finish. Highly recommended!

We have stayed here many times before and will continue to do so. Yes, there is a lot of construction in the bay and the hotel needs some updating (while keeping the authentic charm hopefully). But everything else is top notch: the staff are very friendly, the service is fantastic, rooms have gorgeous sea views, pools and Lido are beautiful and the staff keep everything clean and organised. Special thanks to Analisa, Mylen, Maria (Fra Martino breakfast) and Marika (Pearl lounge) for their excellent and genuinely kind service! They are real gems.

On arrival at night we were greeted by very friendly reception staff and concierge. We asked if there was any food available or a bar open as it was only 10.30 pm but nothing was available. We proceeded to our room and we ordered room service. We had a knock on the door and this lovely lady came in with fresh fruit,cakes and water and asked us if we needed any drinks from the bar. It was a nice touch from the hotel. The hotel is beautiful and clean, great breakfast for all tastes and a pool bar and pools. My only moan would be that the hotel is soulless with no music, no bar after 10.30pm so customers stayed away from the hotel. No entertainment and it's not organized for children/teenagers as there is nothing for them to do in the evening. I think they will have a battle on their hands once the Hard rock opens in my opinion. Open the pool bar at night time and have music on the patio (pool bar closes at 5.30pm).
