I had a wonderful stay at the Westin Dragonara. The property is beautiful, very clean and well-kept. The staff were very helpful and friendly. I ordered room service twice - the food arrived in good time, was tasty and a good portion size. The staff collected the dishes after I was done. Check-in and check-out were smooth and the staff were keen to help however they could. I can’t think of anything to suggest to make it better. Thank you for a lovely time.

My first time in Malta. The people were warm and friendly. Made us feel like we were home. The food was beyond 5 stars. The gentlaman who made my omlet in the morning was so friendly and I loved speaking to him. I never had to leave the resort. We had a beautiful view from our balcony. Can not wait to return, come on December!

Excellent hotel. They gave us rooms next to each other as we had two bookings. Breakfast was excellent and the staff were polite and excellent service provided. The bar tenders were all friendly with our kids. The only downfall was the kids club wasn't opened during stay and the jacuzzi was under service so unavailable .

Our experience is probably a one-off but it doesn't offset the subpar experience. First of all, I want to say the staff were amazing and were responsive. I assume they did all they could in their power but I don't know that all of them did this. The front desk staff that worked the late night shifts for sure did. So this was much appreciated and probably the only reason I'd return. Second, the room we were given had a bunch of issues, from a safe that didn't work, poor water pressure, a sink that wouldn't drain, dirty towels, no hot water, and worst of all bugs. The bugs were the final straw and only once this was brought to their attention did they change our room. The room they moved us to was not the same type of room and no reimbursement was even issued. For the price paid and the 5 star rating of this property they fell way short of what was expected. It was unacceptable.

What a great property! Everything at this property was wonderful, right from our arrival to departure. Started with the helpful doorman to the custom welcome letter and chocolates. The rooms were clean and spacious. The room was quiet and had great sea and pool views. The food, especially breakfast buffet was superlative. Staff was super friendly, professional and helpful. They even threw in free late check-out. The decor and ambience was opulent. Thanks for a great stay.

Well kept. Highly recommended

Very well kept rooms and excellent care. It was nice seeing Maltese people still manning some hospitality positions. The rooms are well kept (better than Hilton). Waste separation in every room and in every floor lobby. Nice fitness center, little overcrowded but well equipped. The breakfast during the weekend was exceptional ( amongst the very best in the island) during the week a little more limited but still good. The chocolates on the first night in the turndown is a delicious touch with a personalized message by the general manager. Fully stocked room, extremely clean with all modern up to date amenities Things to work on… lobby was uncomfortably cold, some robes and sheets had holes in them ( throw them out). The bath doesn’t actually hold water, might just as well turn it into a shower since it’s slippery as hell to stand in it. Weirdly enough the toilet throne wasn’t level, felt like falling sideways.
