Breakfast was excellent. Finally something of substance other the eating croissants for 2 weeks in Sicily. LOL. Hotel has beautiful view. Bit far away from the action but it depends what you want. Action or relax. Little bit of Renovation and refresh would not hurt. Staff is helpful and attentive to your needs. I'd rate it good average hotel. G;

We stayed here for a last minute holiday to Malta and the staff here are really nice and helpful. Tourist information was provided on arrival and some local knowledge was thrown in too. AC in the room; shampoo, shower gel and hair dryer were provided, beautiful pool (open to the public) and restaurant downstairs with a good, consistent breakfast, good happy hour deals and amazing (!) pizza. Well located to get to St Paul's Bay, Valetta, Mdina and Gozo by bus. Let us leave our luggage and use the pool after checkout at 11am. Thoroughly impressed, have recommended The Ambassador to family and friends.

Can’t really go wrong with this hotel. Stayed here for 5 nights. Rooms were clean, very well organised. I had a top floor room (405) and had a balcony that faced the sea and the pool. AC was broken at first but the maintenance staff were so quick to repair it, didn’t even need to ask twice. The Nepali maintenance man made my stay absolutely perfect and deserves a raise as every time I saw him, he was working so hard and determined to do a good job at everything he put his mind to. Be sure to keep the AC on when you’re not in the room though, else you’d be greeted with a boiling hot room on your return. The receptionists at first left a really bad impression: they couldn’t offer any advice on things to see (one instead suggesting I use Google rather than asking her). However, that same receptionist turned out to really care about her job after she scoured every room looking to return a lost phone to the rightful owner. So they do care, they’re just curt and not enthusiastic about being there. Location is quite bad unless you want to be away from everything. It’s not actually in St Paul’s Bat proper, but rather in Xemxija, a small suburb on the outskirts of St Paul’s Bay. Still, plenty restaurants; a few shops; a fresh fruit market. We had everything we needed and didn’t mind the quiet.

I highly recommend staying at Ambassador Hotel when in St. Paul's Bay, Malta. Have in mind that this is a 3-star hotel, but it's absolutely worth it as it's the best a 3-star can get. The cleanliness of the room was a big plus. Internet is free and decent. There is a bus stop near the hotel called "Xemxija", which easily takes you to either Popeye Village, or to the senter of St. Paul's Bay and more. The hotel offers guests free and unlimited water bottle refills by the water dispenser in the reception, and the water is ice cold. Also the staff are super helpful and polite. My experience was very positive!

The property is of medium quality, with issues with both waterpressure and aircon temperature (this was not the same in different rooms). There is no fridge in the room, but this can be rented from the hotel for €3.50 pr night, wich i thought was quite excessive, specially thinking the level/quality of the hotel and how this usually is included in rooms. The hotel rooms are not very well insulated and you can hear people talking in the next room or in the hallway, almost lile they are in the room with you. it is also a very small hotel with just over 40 rooms, and the breakfast selection is very limited. The hotel is quite a distance from the city og St.Pauls Bay, even though it is easy to take the local busses, there is both unregularities in time according to schedule and limited busses that actually go in to town. The traffic can also be horrendous at certain times. There are some local restaurants in the area, but not a huge selection. HOWEVER!! All this considering, every single one of the hotel staff was absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt welcome, was happy and comfortable, and showed a genuine interest. There was never a no from anyone, they just fixed issues quickly and efficiently. The cleaning staff did a super job every single day, gave fresh towels every day, and i often came back to find beautiful towel-figurines on the beds.

La camera era pulita una volta al giorno e bene, tuttavia era una camera con i soli elementi essenziali e nulla di più, niente di che. La colazione abbastanza fornita per la parte salata ma la parte dolce nulla di che: poca frutta, niente cioccolata, niente biscotti o fette biscottate, In compenso il personale del ristorante era davvero molto competente e cordiale. I receptionist fanno bene il loro lavoro, in particolare una signora coi capelli lunghi e neri, molto disponibile.

Ein kleines, feines Hotel, mit super Lage direkt am Meer, super nettem, hilfsbereiten, zuvorkommendem Personal. Unser Zimmer hatte Klimaanlage, was die Nächte ganz angenehm gemacht hat. Die Zimmer werden jeden Tag gründlich gereinigt, mit allem, was dazu gehört. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist nicht überladen aber es ist für jedem was dabei. Das Restaurant bietet reichlich Köstlichkeiten und kann locker mit einem 5* Restaurant mithalten - super lecker - nur zu empfehlen ! Für Sonnenhungrige gibt es genügend Liegen am Salzwasser- Pool. Die Cocktails sind absolut OK im Preis/ Leistungsverhältnis! Für das Benehmen von einheimischen Gästen oder aber auch Touristen kann das Hotel nichts. Mein Mann und ich waren sehr zufrieden und kommen gerne wieder! Danke für 10 tolle Tage.
