Radisson Blu Resort & Spa, Malta Golden Sands

Radisson Blu Resort & Spa, Malta Golden Sands

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed in a penthouse for 5 days with our teenage daughter. Lots of room for all of us and fabulous facilities. We loved the hot tub on the huge balcony. The resort is in the perfect location overlooking its beautiful beach. The staff were fabulous - nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend."

8/10 Good
"The hotel was huge and offered an impressive range of amenities, with everything you could possibly need. There were multiple outdoor pools, as well as a massive indoor pool. We particularly loved the breakfast buffet, which had a fantastic variety of options. They had halal sausages for Muslim visitors. We did encounter an issue with our initial room, as there were quite a lot of ants on the tables and floor. However, after raising the issue with the hotel, they arranged a room change without any hassle. Overall, the staff handled the situation well and made the process smooth. Ultimately, we had an amazing stay apart from one hiccup, and we would definitely recommend to others and stay again!"

"This is a well appointed amazing hotel. I had no idea how large it was. It’s very efficiently run. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It is very clean The children’s pool with slides is perfect - we had my 2 year old granddaughter with us. Ricardos and Luzzo restaurants are particularly good. In both restaurants there are large well equipped children’s areas. We also liked the adults area especially the sky bar in the evenings and had a wonderful meal at Minoa restaurant on 11th floor with fab views over the bay. The outside area is safe and pleasant unlike many popular areas in Malta which are just shocking. AX hotel is expertly run and I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend this hotel"

"This was our 2nd visit this year to this fabulous adult only hotel. Perfect position. Very clean. Rooms well equipped. Rooftop infinity pool is stunning. Indoor pool was glorious and very relaxing with jacuzzi bath. Staff are amazing. Breakfast room beautiful with lots of variation to eat, again stunning views and outdoor seating on the balconies. If the hotel are wanting feedback for potential changes, there would be just one suggestion. New pillows on the beds they were all lumpy. And the beds themselves didnt feel very wide. But apart from that this hotel is absolutely perfect."

8/10 Good
"First the positives: the staff - front desk especially - were great. Very friendly and helpful and polite. The price we paid was very reasonable for this time of the year (high season). The room was very spacious. The Internet was good enough. The breakfast menu, although limited, was good and hearty. There are restaurants and supermarkets on the same street and very close by too. On the downside: The main issue we faced was finding an available parking spot near and around the hotel - especially at night! To say that "street parking is available" on the description is not quite accurate. It is a lottery - depending on what time one looks for parking. On our last night after looking for parking several blocks away I had to park in an illegal spot. The other issue is the hotel needs upgrading work in the rooms."

"This was absolutely one of the best hotels/apartments that we have stayed in. Self check-in was SUPER easy, the host met us at the property to provide some logistical information and a complimentary bottle of wine. When ever we needed anything, they were only a WhatsApp call/message away. We will definitely stay here again and highly recommend it, especially for a larger family or group. 10/10 highly recommend!!"

8/10 Good
"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."
