i absolutely loved my experience in the elysium spa. it is impeccably clean, and the atmosphere puts you immediately in relaxation mode (as it should in a spa). the indoor pool is good sized (not like in most hotels), the gymn and squash court were also enjoyed immensely, as were the sauna , steam room, and hydro pool. moreover the... more

I have been here at the Riviera for 4 weeks so far, three more to go. I couldn't ask for more from a hotel -- rooms are are kept spotless by wonderful, courteous people, Natalina has treated me with treats and kindness daily. Maria, head of housekeeping, has worked very hard to facilitate the numerous rooms we occupy, respecting our... more

Me and my partner decided to go for a weekend break something we do very often, we have been in almost all 4/5 stars hotels in Malta, and that is why we chose The Riviera Hotel this time. The staff is very nice, nothing to complain about that, the room was ok just like the pictures showed, but I have... more

We got a good deal on this through Expedia and for that reason I probably won't be as harsh as if I had paid full price. Exterior: Hotel looks large and impressive from outside. On arrival we were quite excited. Interior: Generally pretty good in public areas, however the room could be improved. Though it was large and ok, the... more

Staff friendly but under-staffed and reception frequently had long queues with only 1 person in attendance. Bar area very small and at the time we stayed there was also a film crew staying who monopolised the area - sensible solution would have been to give them a separate area. Food very mediocre and service poor - on 1st evening waited... more

We changed our destination in the last weeks from Greece to Malta, so we had to find everything very fast. This hotel convinced us already based on the photos, and as we arrived we realized it was a good choice: in a quiet neighborhood just 10 steps from the sea, two minutes walk from the bus lines going to the... more

We had no problems with this hotel at all. The staff are a mixture of UK and local, all very friendly. We would say the accommodation is closer to a UK 3* than a 4*, but the rooms are very clean, towels and linen changed every day - can't complain about comfort at all. The Spa is probably what ticks... more

I have just got back from a 6 night break at the Riviera Resort and Spa in Malta. First of all, I really cannot fault the hotel. I consider it to be excellent value for money. Although in a very quiet area, the hotel is well served by the myriad of yellow buses that swarm over the island, so it... more
