The Phoencia is a wonderful hotel.
The Phoencia is a wonderful hotel. all the staff are courteous, efficient and friendly, and they all seem happy in their work. The rooms are spotless and the restaurant is excellent. A special mention to the restaurant breakfast staff who work very hard and were very busy on Sunday, but made the time to clear a prepare a table in the conservatory.

Lovely traditional hotel. Public spaces were definitely '5 star', comfortable, nicely decorated and spacious. Rooms were less so, more a solid '4 star' as neither plush nor overly comfortable. On arrival, there were blown lamp bulbs that should have been replaced before giving the room to guests and the USB sockets did not work either which was somewhat inconvenient. However, most room amenities were excellent (like the Acgua di Parma toiletries) and the daily complimentary soft drink mini bar was nice to have. House keeping was prompt and excellent (except last day when rooms were still unmade at 4.00pm) and evening turn down service was faultless. Beds were comfortable linens were top notch. Had a huge if slightly old fashioned bathroom but it was nice to have a large opening window. Breakfast was faultless and the service exemplary, nothing was too much trouble and carried out in a very friendly warm fashion, in fact every staff member we had contact with were excellent. It all felt genuine. Had dinner one evening in the restaurant and that was excellent too. There was a Christmas tree lighting ceremony during our stay which offered delicious canapes and pastries. Hotel location is excellent, at the gates to Valletta town. There are extensive nicely maintained gardens but the open air swimming pool was at the furthest end of the grounds and looked pretty rough and uninviting, might be better in the summer months. But definitely recommend - had a great stay.

We stayed for 4 nights. Room was nice and clean. Hotel is situated in a very nice area and neighborhood. Beautiful lobby , slow service at the restaurant La and lounge. Walkable to many historic places and restaurants and shops. I had one of the best massage at the hotel spa by Grace , she was fantastic. The only problem during our stay was food, breakfast was ok they need to improve the quality of the food. food service was slow. Dinner was a lot better quality. Overal very nice stay.
