Top Is-Swatar Hotel Reviews

Hard Rock Hotel Malta

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were lovely, spacious and really comfortable. The staff were so friendly, welcoming and always smiling, which made the whole experience even better. Breakfast was amazing, with plenty of choices."

115 The Strand Hotel by NEU Collective

10/10 Excellent

"Superlatives! It's the tiny block tucked in between hotels. Budget friendly and centralized. Boundary of Sliema/Gzira. Great view of Valletta Cityline. Staff are friendly, great breakfast to start your day, swift response to fix issues in the room. Very reliable hotel. Clean and organized. Wish there are more hooks on the walls to put or hang our things. If you don't have a balcony in your room, you can go to Level 9 to capture the waterfront view. Access to Aqua Luna is a plus! Make sure to allot time for swimming and enjoy the poolside with fantastic waterfront view. They are only open from 10am to 6pm. Great for long term stay - we stayed from Oct31-Nov6 (7days/6nights). We will definitely return and recommend 115 Strand Hotel! Thank you!"

Ramla Bay Resort

10/10 Excellent

"A great hotel away from the bustle of other areas but great for ferry travel and boat trips, including some of the best spots for snorkelling. The food was good, staff were very helpful with everything we asked. The hotel has a number of bars you can flick through with the various happy hours which is great. The private beach and snorkelling/swimming area is great!"

Azur Hotel by ST Hotels

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and comfortable and was serviced every day. The staff were courteous and friendly and helpful in all enquiries, resolving all issues to satisfaction. Breakfast was varied and very good though it is quite busy. The balcony was very welcome as it was still very warm in October. All is all, a very pleasant stay and will probably return again as teh amenities around the hotel are excellent"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Is-Swatar?

The best area to stay in Is-Swatar is the central part, particularly around the University of Malta and Mater Dei Hospital.

This area is a modern, well-developed district with good infrastructure. It's largely residential but offers convenient access to essential services and transport links, making it a practical base for various travellers. The main roads, such as Triq Rebeca and Triq il-Qalb Imqaddsa, connect you easily to neighbouring towns.

For those visiting the University of Malta or Mater Dei Hospital, staying in Is-Swatar offers unparalleled convenience. Many accommodations are within walking distance or a short bus ride away, saving you travel time and ensuring you're close to your appointments or studies.

Couples looking for a quiet base from which to explore Malta will find Is-Swatar appealing.

When is the best time to go to Is-Swatar?

The best time to go to Is-Swatar is during the shoulder seasons of spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October).

During spring, the weather is pleasantly warm, with average temperatures ranging from 18°C to 25°C. This period offers plenty of sunshine without the intense heat of summer, making it ideal for exploring the island's historical sites and natural beauty. You'll find fewer crowds compared to the peak summer months, and the countryside is lush and green.

Autumn also provides delightful weather, with temperatures between 20°C and 28°C. The sea remains warm enough for swimming until late October, and the summer crowds have dispersed. This is a great time for those who enjoy outdoor activities like hiking or exploring the nearby cities of Mdina and Valletta in comfortable conditions.

While summer (July and August) is popular for beach holidays, temperatures often exceed 30°C and it can be very busy.
