Alexandra Hotel

First you must pay in advance because, of course, if you will see the rooms you will search for another place. Maybe under a street balcony would be a better place!! Me and my girlfriend came from spain and booked for a double room but was only twin rooms available (after pay of course) and we must put the beds together just to win a back pain! pools are not and will not ever been available, you can only see a photo of the pool on his website. Once you pay, all the crew turn their smiles to an ugly and rude actitudes to you and they must feel you like they are kidding and joking you!!! TV doesn't work, every day at 7 oclock plumbers started to work with an horrible noise and seems that wall was going to fall. Dirty bathroom with a nice beetle included... I can continue but resuming, please choose another hotel if you would like to enjoy Malta (nice place to spend your holidays)!!

Having just returned from The Alexandra Hotel (after bombing through the streets with no regard to other vehicles in a mini bus at two in the morning!) I have to say that I have very mixed feelings about the hotel.
On the minus side our room faced what can only be described as a scene in Beirut!
That was a disappointment in itself as we do like a nice view whether it be sea view or just something pretty to look at, though having said that I think you would be hard pressed to find any such view in the whole of Malta.
The other minus thing being the noise from the Italian students who seemed to take over the place in great numbers.
As we asked for a lively resort we was prepared for late night (or early morning) high spirited noise, as we ourselves don’t come in until the early hours.
But what we wasn't prepared for was the 24/7 shouting, knocking on our door, ringing our phone, banging their doors, shouting at the top of their voices to each other ,taking over the front steps so you had to squeeze past (because oh no! they were not going to move for you).
In general they were making as much noise as they could all through the night, just to be an annoyance to the other residents.
On meeting with one or two other residents in the bar late at night, where the poor bar tenders were trying to reason with them, it was being discussed which balcony to drop them off!
On the plus side, the staff were excellent and the rooms adequate. But because of the above mentioned I would not stay there again.
Maybe it should be suggested to them not to mix students with tourists as it just doesn't work.
