"Great location, great breakfast and suite room was spacious , clean with good bathroom and massive comfy bed with A/C, balcony. Only tiny gripes are the that the roof top bar closed early 3 of the 6 nights when advertised to midnight which was disappointing as fabulous place to have a night cap If in hire car the car park is impossible to use as anything other than a very small car can access ie entrance/exit is extremely tight, don’t bother get a bolt (Malta version of uber) app which is quick and cheap, I bc would recommend highly"

InterContinental Malta by IHG

8/10 Good
"This hotel does not live up to the Intercontinental name. The hotel needs major room renovations. The lobby area and restaurant areas are nice but the rooms are so outdated. The 1st room we checked in had a musty smell and the carpets were stained. Asked for a room change, the staff were very helpful and accommodating. The 2nd room was a bit better but the same issue with the old carpet. We had club access which gave us separate breakfast area, tea time and pre-dinner food and drinks. The Seabeach pool on 19th floor is very nice but even with Club Access we were told that the amenities were not included and it was an extra charge. Overall not a bad stay. Location is perfect. The staff made sure we were taken care of, and they worked very hard with a smile 😊"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Lija?

The Parish Church, a prominent landmark, is surrounded by a few local shops, cafes, and the well-maintained Lija Belvedere Tower and gardens. It's a very peaceful part of the village, offering a true sense of local life.For couples seeking a relaxing and authentic Maltese experience, staying near the Parish Church is ideal. You'll enjoy quiet evenings, strolls through the charming streets, and easy access to the village's main points of interest. It's a great base for unwinding and experiencing Maltese culture away from more bustling tourist areas.While Lija itself is a small, residential village, its central location within Malta makes it a convenient base for exploring the island by car.
