Cugo Gran Macina Malta

The crew at Cugo Gran Macina were very attentive and hospitable! This is the best stay my wife and I have had at any hotel. The location in Senglea also added to its charm, without being to close to the action at Valletta (great for a quiet night).

This is a hotel that combines historical experience with spaciousness and comfort. The scenery is beautiful, and the value for money is high. The room is very large, and the view from the rooftop pool is fantastic. The breakfast is also delicious. The staff are friendly and helpful. It's also convenient for going out to play; you can walk to the water taxi station and take a gondola to Valletta, which is very convenient.

I cannot praise Cugo Gran in Senglea, Malta enough. My Corner suite was superb in every way, size, light, views, bedroom, bathroom, lounge. Rooftop Pool and restaurant, breakfast all excellent. Staff particularly Catarina were amazing- with tour and restaurant suggestions, transfers, every whim was no trouble. What a wonderful area looking through my windows to Harbour Marina full of yachts and boats, historical city of Vittorosa and further along to City Ramparts and beauty of Valletta. Just a few minutes by ferry ride across to Valletta. This is best place to stay in Malta.

We booked this trip as a last minute few days in the sun via a travel agent where we live. Immediately on arriving at the hotel, we were welcomed in such a nice yet understated way and genuinely were made to feel special. We were upgraded to the corner harbour view room which you can see on the photo just underneath the pool with the large balcony. The room was a suite and was lovely. Bed really comfortable and really nice size although the furniture in the living room part was arranged in a slightly bizarre way meaning you cannot see the TV from the sofa (not that we needed to). The hotel itself is a perfect size with other guest s but not too many so we could always get a sun lounger by the pool. The views from the roof were spectacular of the old harbour. The restaurant was excellent with fantastic breakfasts. However, I think the major plus for the hotel was honestly the staff who, bar none, were so kind and attentive. They were also very knowledgable about were to go, where to eat and how to get there. I cannot praise them as a group highly enough. The hotel location is great. Apparently we were in high season but it didn't feel that way, where we were staying. 10 minute walk to the harbour taxi to go across to Valletta which was also a lovely balance of bustle without too many crowds. If I have to make a couple of suggestions for our room, they would be as follows... The air-conditioning automatically turns off when an outer door is opened. I understand the logic, but it was so hot that the room would rapidly warm up again by the time we get back. Also, the large (excellent) balcony was such an asset to the room but is really exposed to the sunshine. I think it would make sense to put a parasol by the sun loungers there (although, like I said, we were easily able to get loungers by the pool) These are minor issues, as far as I am concerned. I have had such a nice few days and this is in a huge part due to the lovely experience I have had in this hotel and the wonderful staff. I thoroughly recommend this hotel.

Brilliant hotel and just what we needed for our mini moon! The team were so attentive and the breakfast was excellent! The room was clean and spacious and overall very comfortable for our 5 night stay. The rooftop pool was so nice and relaxing. Also, the pool menu was good and the food was great. Overall a great stay.
