As a regular guest at the Grand Hotel for many years, I would like to leave a review as I unfortunately did not enjoy my last stay at the Grand Hotel. As an active diver, I have always enjoyed the Grand Hotel with its short, easy routes to the dive center. Unfortunately, there seems to be an instruction from the management not to allow divers to use these short routes to the diving center. Unfortunately, the management is not willing to compromise and responded with a constant monologue instead of seeking dialog. As a guest, I had almost no opportunity to address my concerns to the management in a reasonable manner. I have never experienced anything like this in any hotel in the world where I have been a guest. The manager seems to me to be very aloof and inaccessible.
Unfortunately, the Grand Hotel in general is now very run-down and even my room in the new building shows clear signs of wear and tear, especially in the bathroom. This ranges from defective fittings and yellowed joints to the dirty bathtub. Cleaning under the bed is also a foreign concept. Dust and cobwebs lay thick in the corners.
We don't even need to talk about soiled carpets in the corridors and flaking plaster. Unfortunately, this has become standard there and you no longer feel comfortable there.
As mentioned, I have been a regular guest at the Grand Hotel for 10 stays so far and as a diver I have always been able to overlook the deteriorating condition of the hotel every year. The overall package was just right. But that is no longer the case. The management's resistance to advice and the aforementioned run-down condition of the hotel ruin the overall package. I don't know whether I will be a guest there again. Not at the moment.

Was mainly eating out

Outdated hotel (old English style).
The rooms are being renovated.

(Automatically translated from Dutch)

There are six rooms between the old and new areas. We strongly advise against these rooms. Small, not very nicely furnished, very small balcony, no or only limited view of the harbor. There are two kitchens below where people work late into the night. It constantly smells like a chip shop. Other rooms are definitely preferable. Spacious, stylishly furnished, wonderful view of the harbor, the sea and Malta. We had booked half board and obviously overlooked the fact that there is no buffet in the evening, but ala carte. The food is great. However, definitely not enough for divers after a day of diving. The breakfast buffet, on the other hand, is very extensive. We were there in the low season. Apparently this time is also used for older people. The average age of other guests felt to be 70-80 years. The Extra Divers diving center is located directly at the back of the hotel.

For the second time in the GrandHotel, this time in a newly renovated room on the 8th floor (Superior, highly recommended). The only complaint is that the Wi-Fi is not stable.
We only used breakfast and that was sufficient and varied. Special requests (extra lemon for tea) were always catered for.

All in all a nice vacation that met the expectations. The dive center would also get 5 stars, but for this the premises are a bit too limited.

The pool level room was very dated and the bathroom had mold on the ceiling and shower curtain. Bathers look directly into the room, there is no rest and there was nuisance of cigarette smoke. Sitting quietly on your terrace/balcony is not possible with these rooms and therefore not worthy of a 'sea view'. Because of this we upgraded to a superior room, in this case on the 8th floor. These are much newer and fully equipped. These rooms are fantastic, as are the views!
The food (breakfast and one order from the menu) was mediocre. Therefore, actually always did lunch and dinner in the area. And there are restaurant enough to eat out.
As for service, the staff is friendly and helpful.

Due to the travel warning for Malta was on Gozo, in the hotel and at the dive center little happening.
The hotel has a fantastic view over the Mediterranean Sea across to Malta.
Although it is located directly above the harbor, the noise from the harbor is not disturbing.

We stayed in the "old" part of the hotel, it is really getting on in years. Food and staff were really great.

Everything is fine, the hotel manager is very accessible, interested and helpful from day 1. We really felt very comfortable. Even under the special COVID conditions the trip was very relaxing. Many measures were implemented for the guests and gave us a good feeling.
