We have recently returned from 7 nights stay at the Dolmen where we had an excellent time. The only slight reservation was the room we were allocated on arrival was not quite what we expected. We had booked a superior room and had asked for all the normal wants - quiet room, sea view, balcony, double bed etc and our... More

We have just returned from our annual family holiday to Malta. I have to say the Dolmen was a lovely hotel with comfortable rooms finished to a high standard.

A lovely hotel superbly situated by St Pauls Bay. the best rooms are on the 6th floor called Superior Rooms but be careful - the description ' Superior ' seems to cover for variable amounts of furniture in the room. This year we were given Room 611 and told it was a superior room but it was more like transit... More

My parents booked this hotel, I was concerned when I read the reviews, so I emailed the hotel in advance. However the hotel responded, which allayed my worries and our requests were met, we were roomed next to each other with spacious rooms each with a balcony. This is strange review because on the whole it's pretty good but it's... More

I have no idea how this hotel got four stars. Rather, I'd give it four rotten tomatoes. First, whilst we have been really lucky with our room, our mother who had booked (and paid extra for) a room with balcony and sea-view ended up in something like a darkroom (room no. 523, see photo). The so-called balcony was just small... More
