Beautiful view from sea view room! What a sight to wake up to and lovely to sit on the balcony of an evening, watching the boats go by. Very peaceful area with exception of building works on next door building, but that won’t be forever. Shame that there wasn’t an indoor pool to use out of season. For the price, I thought this might be an option. Breakfast was plentiful and a good selection “buffet style”. Bar was small but very friendly staff, in fact all the staff we came across were very friendly. Beds could do with mattress protectors and blankets available for use, in the winter months. Room was cleaned daily to a good standard.

GREAT HOTEL IN QUIET AREA

We have stayed here a few times now and it is always excellent. From the reception staff, waiters and cleaners they are all excellent. The breakfast has many choices and sets you up for the day. In warm conditions you can sit outside to have your breakfast looking over the bay of Mellieha, Ghadira Bay. On day one our kettle became faulty and within 10 minutes of contacting the reception staff a maintenance person was sent up and fixed the problem. The room is cleaned each day to a very good standard, tea, coffee, sugar and milk is replenished daily. The water is hot and bathroom facilities are provided. If you like a quiet location VIU57 is an excellent choice with views to die for. The only slight downside is parking a vehicle. The hotel is down an incline and parking has to be found where possible, though you can drive down to unload and reload your vehicle when needed. We cannot praise this hotel enough and it's great staff. We are already getting ready to book again for next year.

We stayed for 5 nights and had a lovely experience here. One thing that stands out is definitely the customer service from the staff; Dora in particular was so helpful towards me and my partner. She helped us with renting a car and offered us the chance to check out later due to our flight being in the evening. The location and view from our room was beautiful and peaceful. The room was very clean and house keeping did an amazing job every day. Should be a 4 star hotel🙊

The view from the pool, and the room we had, were spectacular. The hotel is in a quiet part of town. Restaurants and cafes are close by. There is a bistro, café in the hotel so no need to go far. The hotel, Mellieha and Malta exceeded our expectations.

Generally okay, but somewhat disappointed

We visit Malta once or twice a year and this is the first time we’ve stayed in this hotel. On the hole it was a pleasant hotel, the staff from reception were very good. The disappointing thing for me was that the room was very small which I would’ve been okay with if there were shelves or hooks to hang things up. Particularly the bathroom there was nowhere in the shower to put anything! I didn’t have a hairdryer in my room and the kettle wouldn’t turn off. I love the pool and although there were many sunbeds, we did manage to get one both days. My only other gripe would be that there was no service for food and drink. You have to go up to the window to order.

One Night Stay at VIU57

We really enjoyed our one-night stay. The room was modern reasonably spacious and spotlessly clean with good storage and a fridge which was great on a hot day. The pool was a decent size and there were sufficient sunbeds to accommodate guests. Breakfast was decent with a good range of cold and hot food. The machine coffee and juice wasn't bad either. The staff were very pleasant and helpful but also professional. All in all I would recommend VIU57 which was in the tranquil and quaint town of Mellieha a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of Valletta and Sliema.
