Great boutique hotel for relaxation!
The HOLM hotel was fantastic! Great location in St Julian's, just up the hill from all the action. Quiet, except for the two roosters, but that added charm. Got an upgraded room on the 4th floor. Spacious, great shower, nice to have a kitchenette and fridge for the delicious food we picked up. Patio with a covered bed lounger was great - sunbathed and napped on it. The hot tub was amazing! Very clean and awesome to use while enjoying the music from the hotel's pool terrace. The hotel pool was refreshing with a cute patio. Breakfast was also very good - all the right things and local pastries - the pastizzio of different fillings - was great. Highly recommend. Service was friendly and accessible.

Nice quirky boutique hotel with friendly staff. Good breakfast selection. Room was spacious and comfy. Had a leaking shower and didn't get clean towels some days (despite having to use them to clean up the water that leaked). Spa facilities were good but the staff were a little disorganised but all got resolved in the end. Pool area was simple but nice. Shout out to Jeffrey who helped us with a smashed bottle one night and could not have been more accommodating. We enjoyed our time here.

We booked the Deluxe Room, 1 King Bed & Hot Tub for 10 nights. It’s on the ground floor, so only downside is there’s barely any sunlight in the room, due to the building next to the hotel & for some reason we got bitten a lot. Other than that the room is very spacious, bed is so comfortable and loved the shower. Loads of storage space & there’s a mini fridge. There’s 24hr room service so you can order water and drinks whenever you like. There’s an option in your room for your room to be cleaned and you can do this option every day if you want, which is lovely to come back to a clean bedsheets, fresh towels after a day out. The staff are wonderful so helpful and nice. The inside and outdoor pool facilities are nice. Good thing about this hotel is there’s around 30 rooms so it was never crowded which is nice. Breakfast was nice. Always different egg options (fried, scrambled, tarts) and the sweet options (pancakes, crepes etc.) changed every day. Wasn’t aware of how nice the area is, there’s loads of local restaurants. We had a pastizzi shop which is a 5 min walk from the hotel which we frequented. There’s also a Costa, Wagamamas and McDonald’s about 15/20 walk from the hotel too. Also a beach nearby but it’s dirty so we didn’t go there which was a shame. The hotel is on a very steep hill but you’ll get used to the exercise

The hotel could be really, really nice and is described as a 5 start but is not. The facilities are good in terms of rooms with hot tubs and terraces. The main issue is the standard of overall cleanliness which is low. Behind the reception and in front of the lifts, the floor mat is absolutely filthy and does not seem to have been washed or vacuumed once when we were there for nearly a week. The hallway carpets are also dirty. The main issue was breakfast. It was ALL open, even hot foods. This meant flies could very easily fly around and sit on the foods. The first day we saw the breakfast area, we were really worried about the hygiene. 3 out of 4 of the party ended up getting food poisoning, one person severely with lots of vomiting and diarrhoea. One poor cleaner had to clean vomit from the little kitchenette in the room. We didn’t have breakfast for the last 3 days. We wanted to check out of couple of days early but were told we could not. The lack of cleanliness is what let this place down which is a shame because with effort and commitment, this hotel could be 5 star.
