Definitely NOT 4 Star But 2 Star
The Hotel is no way a 4 star, more a 2 star with a pool inside. Air con in the rooms was noisy and not effective. Black out curtains didn't work as they didn't fit, pillows were like sleeping on a horse carcus fill with cement but it was clean. No tea and coffee in your room, no mini fridge, eventho there should be one, patio's were communal places where other guests could sit at any hour of the night to drink, smoke and be loud in order to wake you up and ask reception staff to have them moved. This really is Faulty Towers,(not Fawlty.) Wifi is NOT available in all rooms only in reception

The Crown Hotel in St Paul's Malta
The best thing that can be said about the Crown is that it is located close to a lot of the stores/restautants/coast line. The Hotel is starting to have a run down feel about it with one lift being almost always out of service or in the process of being repaired. The bar in the hotel is dark and only 2 nights is there any entertainment which was very average. The Irish Pub attached is closed - not sure how long this has been the case. The pool on the roof is quiet good but the snack shop only sells drinks/crisps and ice cream - it is not possible to get any other food. The week that we were there the pool had a very strange color and there was some milkey liquid that was not water in the pool that made the visability awful.The Breakfast is good and I did not sample the evening meal. The rooms that I booked were very dark with no outside windows - they only had sliding doors into a very small courtyard that had no natural light. Overall the hotel was fair - the location good, the breakfast good , the pool was not great - very few umbrellas , lots of broken sun loungers, with a very limited supply of drinks, snacks, ice creams and not other food.

a long walk up the hill !
we arrived at the crown on august 10 ,from the outside the hotel looks ok , specially in comparison to some hotels around it . Stangely loads of teenagers would congregate every night in the reception ( we never found out why). We couldn't find a bar serving alcohol anywhere in the hotel , and the Irish Bar advertised was shut the whole time , the entertainment consisted of 1 man playing a CD !!! . One of the two lifts were out of order , and still was as we left a week later. the breakfast room and food were all very nice , but dont expect sausage and bacon to taste like at home. the room was basic but passable , however we had a strange little seating area outside the room instead of a balcony, which was fairly useless. If you have a problem with mobility this is NOT the place for you , the hotel is impossible to get to without negotiating a series of steps and hills , I am on crutches and i was worn out everyday, and have come home for a rest !!!

The Crown HOTEL
Staff helpful, room nice on ground floor with patio area. Maid cleaned room each day clean towels sheets etc. Hotel looks as if it needs some attention indoor pool was unusable it was filthy would be better to drain it and close room. Swimming pool on the roof a nice size pool but again it didnt look clean you could not see your feet once in the pool, many of the sunbeds were broke and there were three sun umbrellas. They have a small snack bar run by friendly staff but they only sell drinks crisps and icecream. We enjoyed our stay but this hotel could be so much nicer if a little bit of money was spent on it to improve standards.

Poopy smell in the room
First let me say that this is a budget hotel and I knew that going in. When we arrived it took them several minutes to locate our reservation that had been done on Expedia. They eventually were able to find them and we were assigned a room. The room: I had two twin beds pushed together to make a “King”, this was not all that bad, but there advertisement says it is a “King” bed room. When we entered the room there was a distinct odor of sewage. My wife said what is that “poopy smell”, could never locate the problem and when we told the front desk that said they would check it out (it was never fixed). There was no air conditioning in the room. Once again in there advertisement it said there was and that is why we booked here instead of other budget room that said they did not have air. It did not work for two days. When we complained we were told that it would be fixed, day one - it was not. The next day we complained again and the front desk said it had not been turned on yet. When we told them that there add said they had air and that is why we booked there it was finally fixed. We were traveling with another couple and they brought them a fan, which really made my wife mad. They are not close to anything, the neighborhood is, to say the least, run down compared to other areas of Malta. My recommendation would be to stay in Sliema or Valetta it is much easier to get around there without a car and there is much more shopping and fun things to do.

Hostel Not Hotel
This must be the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. It is no way a 4 star hotel, it would be generous to give this hotel 1 star. The building is tired and is desperate need of an overhaul. The rooms are ill equipped and the advertised mini-bar is an empty fridge. The beds are on their last legs and squeak/creak every time you move. The bed linen looks like it was supposed to be fitted to a baby’s cot and spend’s about 5 minutes covering the mattress once you get into bed. Their idea of house maid cleaning is for them to come in and re-make the bed. Changing of the sheets and towels seems to happen every full moon! Our toilet did not work properly and their version of a shower was a mixer tap over the bath. There was no wall fixing to hang it on, and no shower curtain. You had to sit in the bath and be your own shower. The water supply went off from around 7am one morning and was not re-connected until around 8pm in the evening. The management in the hotel did not give a stuff, and the whole hotel smelt like a sewer by around 10am. On 2 separate occasions, we saw cockroaches! Once in our bathroom and once by the roof pool. The indoor pool was not open. Over the eleven nights we stayed, we were woken 9 times by the fire alarm going off in the middle of the night. The smoke alarms in the rooms are very sensitive and there are no signs in the rooms stating that you can not smoke. Most of the residents were large groups of eastern European students. The staff (other than management) were very friendly. Stay in this hotel at your own peril!

Nice Hotel, But almost
Great hotel, but soon bankrupt. Air conditioning was not working, and 30 degrees is not good. I was told that there was nothing technically wrong, but after 6 days of aircon was still not fixed. Another repeat guest told me that the economy was very poor and there was something about unpaid bills. So I had 6 days of sweat! it was not fixed up the aircon, which was promised several times. Internet did not work the first 2 days either. I had no time to find another hotel because of extensive meetings all day, but as a tourist I had swapped hotel first day!

Esperienza disastrosa
NOi eravamo gia' stati in questo hotel 4 anni fa,essendoci trovato bene abbiamo deciso di ritornarci. L'hotel ci ha deluso molto.La stanza è vecchia e decadente:il phon non funzionava ed era pieno di capelli,il casstto dell'armadio era rotto #l'armadio aveva solo 2 cassetti#,la tenda era rotta e soprattutto il condizionatore non funzionava bene non rinfrescando,abbiamo fatto la sauna ogni notte. L'hotel avrebbe bisogno di una ristrutturazione generale.

Definetely misleading
The hotel and the room described in my reservation at hotels.com was not the one I saw and was given. There was no balcony and no private parking which was a major problem when arriving at 02:00. Many other rooms I could see did have a "balcony" but it was in the light pit of the building and all someone could see was the wall opposite. There was a swimming pool on the roof but surrounded by buildings and little to see. The furniture in the room was of bad quiality, and the bed sheets were not completely clean. The furniture in the lounge was not very clean either. Curiously enough, the bed was 15 cm shorter than I would need (I am 188 cm tall). The hair dryer did not work. In total, the hotel is definetely NOT a 4 star place. Not even 2.

Billigt, men fugtigt og manglende vedligeholdt
Hotellet var billigt, så spørgsmålet er hvor meget vi kunne fovente og forlange. Vi blev dog meget skuffede over, at der intet dagslys over hovedet, kom ind på vores værelse. Med andre ord var der meget mørkt, hvorved vi kun havde lyst til at opholde os der om natten. Der var også lange sorte hår i badeværelset da vi kom. Hår som blev ved med at være der, alle de fire overnatninger vi havde. Så rengøringen var ikke den bedste. De meget tynde lagner på sengene, gled af madrasserne for et godt ord. Ikke mindst lugtede der af fugt (jordslået), med det samme man kom ind i receptionen. Ikke nogen rar oplevelse. Personalet var dog alle sammen meget søde og imødekommende, der var et dejligt stort svømmebassing på taget. Badevandet deri var fint rent, og der var solstole. Morgenmaden var også ok, prisen taget i betragning. Kunne dog godt savne noget frisk frugt. Beliggenheden var fin, i forhold til at komme rundt på øen.

Hotellet har 4 stjärnor men hade nog inte haft det om det skulle ligga i Sverige, men allt var perfekt som det var och vi rekommenderar att lägga till frukost för den var också mycket bra. Hotellet ligger nära alla busshållplats, prommenaden längst vattnet, supermarkets och The square där massor av restauranger ligger. Nästa gång vi åker till Malta bokar vi gärna Crown Hotel.
