Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The Property is very nice, Staff are very polite but the food in the restaurant is terrible, the breakfast selection is not up to standard for a 4 star hotel. Diner option as well is not great, the fish option should be removed as it is tasteless and not cooked properly, if the food can be sorted out then it would be great. The half board option doesn’t include any soft drinks not even water which is a bit strange. Otherwise the hotel is good. I had to intentionally miss the breakfast after 2 days and started eating out for dinner once my vouchers expired.

The reception staff and maintenance staff were all friendly and rectified the issues I had very quickly. So thank you for that. There's a noise problem in this hotel due to sound proofing issues. There are scheduled complimentary shuttle buses from the hotel to Valletta daily which was convenient, as from the Valletta bus terminal, I could easily travel to other parts of Malta and the public transport is cheap. A big shout out to the shuttle bus driver who came on time daily and he was very considerate. A great asset to the hotel. Even though the hotel is not located in Valletta, because of the shuttle bus, it didn't feel inconvenient. And the bus stop to the airport is only about 10 minutes walk.

I loved my stay here at Urban Valley! It was so clean and modern and always well kept. The staff were so lovely and catered to your every needs. They had two big pools which was a bonus. And the breakfast was delicious!! All the main city centres were merely about 20-30 min drives away or less. Would definitely recommend when staying in Malta.
