Excellent location! 5*
The Hotel is nicely located, near to the ferry port which can get you fast around the island. The room was clean, equipped with AC. The rooftop and pool are amazing, with nice view and cocktails! Would come back if visiting Malta again.
A pleasant holiday despite a difficult Start
Overall, we had a very pleasant stay at this hotel and really enjoyed our holiday in Malta.
Unfortunately, our experience didn't start in the best way. We had booked an airport transfer through the hotel for our arrival, but due to a communication issue between ST Hotels and the transfer company, nobody was there to pick us up. As a result, we had to arrange and pay for a taxi to reach the hotel ourselves.
However, we truly appreciated the way the hotel handled the situation. The reception staff immediately expressed their sincere apologies and, as a kind gesture, sent a complimentary fruit platter to our room. On the day of our departure, they also provided a complimentary transfer back to the airport.
A special thank you goes to Niko at the reception, who was exceptionally kind, professional, and helpful throughout our stay. His excellent customer service made a real difference and turned an unfortunate start into a positive experience.
Despite the initial inconvenience, we had a lovely stay and would happily recommend this hotel for its hospitality and the way the staff genuinely care about their guests.

Unpleasant experience
We arrived at Alavits by ST Hotels in Malta on July 3. When we made our reservation through Booking.com, the total price was €1,126 including all taxes. However, upon arrival, the reception asked us to pay an additional €14, explaining that this was due to a new law introduced in Malta from June 1. We later checked into another hotel in Malta and were not asked to pay any similar extra fee, which made us question this additional charge.
Before checking in, we asked to see the swimming pool because the pool was one of the main reasons we chose this hotel. We were shown only a very small pool, almost like a jacuzzi. The large cross-shaped pool featured in many of the photos was not located at this hotel but at a different property. We also noticed that several other ST Hotels listings on Booking.com use photos of this larger pool, even though access may require an additional fee or the pool is located elsewhere. We found this confusing and potentially misleading.
The surrounding street also did not make a good first impression, as it looked quite dirty and unattractive.
When we decided that we no longer wanted to stay, we asked to cancel our reservation. The staff tried to help by offering us complimentary access to the larger pool, but after a long journey we preferred to find another hotel instead. Initially, we were told that a free cancellation was not possible, but in the end we were not charged for the reservation, which we appreciated.
Overall, our experience was disappointing because the hotel did not match the expectations created by the listing, particularly regarding the swimming pool. I would recommend that future guests carefully verify which facilities actually belong to the hotel they are booking.

Good to visit.
Very clean, friendly staff, nice breakfast.
An Excellent Hotel
We stayed for a week from 8th June, taking advantage of their Airport transfer as our flight arrived quite late. Despite a delay the driver was waiting for us in arrivals and transported us efficiently to the Hotel. The hotel did not disappoint, we were very impressed with the room, the facilities and the breakfast, but most of all the staff. Only niggle was the demolition work next door, which meant an early morning wake up. However this is totally outside of the hotels control and we didn't let it spoil our stay. Will definitely consider again when we next return to Malta.
