Perfect hotel

Would absolutely recommend this location!! They had a great little morning breakfast. The staff was pleasant and communicated well. The rooms were great size and provided everything you needed. The location was perfectly in walking distance, restaurants, or a quick cab ride to the main downtown.

Small pretty hotel

Nice, clean and very convinient hotel. Rooms are spacious and nice. There is a breakfast included good enough to start the day. All the staff are very nice, from the breakfast lady, reception and cleaning! The hotel is in a good area for first time visitor. It is in Gzira only 5min away from the Sliema promenade with tons of restaurants. There are also a 24/7 market right on the corner for drinks and snacks

A goud experience.

The hotel is about a year old and in great condition. Check in was via a message as I arrived in the afternoon and the reception is not manned after lunch. Room was great and clean. Location is quiet but close to bars and restaurants.

It was my first time in Malta and i could not have chosen a better hotel for the price I paid. The room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean with a spacious bathroom. The room had tea and coffee making facilties and i enjoyed a nice breakfast every morning. However the best thing about this hotel was the amazing staff, they were always pleasant and are an absolute credit to themselves. One thing i may change in future and this is not in any way meant to be a criticism is that i may ask for a delux room which i believe have a window out onto the street outside, mine didnt, in my case the window was into the lughting well and was a little dark sometimes. All in all i had a great stay at the Urban Isle Hotel and I wouldnt hesitate to stay again.

The hotel was amazing and the service excellent. however, please know that there is no one at the reception desk after 1pm to assist with questions, directions, phone calls, needs. You are on your own from that hour. Our room was a little smaller than we would have desired, but very nice, as we took a week to celebrate our 50th anniversary. Advice: if you are staying a week or more, be sure to obtain phone service with internet for Google maps and taxis, etc...and buy a bus pass for 25 Euros if you are planning to get around by buses! We definitely recommend this hotel to everyone.

The hotel is well located, and although there was no reception at the time we arrived, the self-check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow. Our room was on the ground floor just after the reception; it was small but clean, with a comfortable bed and an excellent shower. Unfortunately, breakfast was the biggest downside of our two-night stay. The area was right next to the bins, the staff looked unhappy and were not welcoming, and the food quality was poor — so much so that we skipped breakfast entirely on the second day and ate elsewhere. Service was also disappointing. On the first morning, I asked about scooter rental (as advertised on posters at reception), but the receptionist said she didn’t know anything and told me to try asking down the road. On the next day, when I returned just before checkout, the receptionist abruptly shouted, “You need to pay €2 for the city tax” while I was on my way to my room — not the best way to approach a guest. Overall, while the location and shower were good, the poor service and breakfast experience would make me choose another hotel in the same price range and area next time.

Pros: Clean New Location Cons: No fridge in room No proper window/balcony/place to dry clothes Poor sound isolation Very poor reception service. We were told we will get late checkout at additional fee - which is perfectly fine. But on checkout we were offered to book another night at full price as only option. Right now, we are waiting for reception stuff for over 30 mins to do that and if she does not show up in couple if more mins we are going to some other place.
