Hotel Review: Hotel 1926, Malta

Welcome to my review of the Hotel 1926 in Malta.

You can read my blog, or, if you scroll straight to the bottom of this page, you can also watch a YouTube video of the complete review.

So lets start...

Located just 200 meters from the seafront in Sliema, Malta, is Hotel 1926, a new hotel that was opened in 2018.

We arrived at the hotel late in the night, but the check-in process was very friendly.

The hotel gives you a tablet where you fill in your information for check-in and also, instead of room keys or cards, you get an access pin code, which you receive by email.

We were on the 7th floor.

Unfortunately, we had no luck.The room we received was a bit small and there was a lot of noise from the building going on just next to the hotel and from the floor above us.

I have to mention that during the booking process we got informed that there would be some building going on on the side next to the hotel, but they did not mention that building would be done inside.

First the receptionist told me that all the rooms were booked so we couldn't change the room, but I insisted and also told them that I would not accept and I would post about it online.

Eventually, they agreed and we changed rooms.

The new room was a room custom made for People Living with Disabilities (PWDs) on the 5th floor.

The room was bigger and further away from the noise. And we thought we could finally relax.

But when we wanted to put on the air conditioner, there was a horrible noise coming from it. Again I visited the reception and asked them to fix the problem.

The next day, when we arrived back at the hotel in the evening, another receptionist told me that they could not repair the air-con, but they offered to change our room. For the 3rd time!
They first showed us the room. It was a nice, upgrade room. It was bigger with shelves, 2 balconies, and the air-con worked.

Hotel Resumé

The rooms were clean, with good mattresses, and the staff at the hotel was super lovely.

The hotel has great potential, and I hope that our problems were only related to the fact that it is quite new. For example there was a body scale in our room, but the batteries were empty.

The hotel has 4 stars on the booking website , but I am not sure if this is the official rating. For me 3.5 stars would be ok.

The hotel restaurant - Margaux

First, greetings to the kitchen staff!

The restaurant was very good and the staff was super nice.

I ate the best mussels of my life in this restaurant. And all the other dishes I had were great, like for instance a pasta Bolognese with filet beef.

The Beach Club
One of the best parts of the hotel is that is is close to the beach (rocky beach), and to their beach club. The beach club is super cool. Inside you have a small restaurant, a small pool with long chairs and the view to the sea.
