TripAdvisor Review
Malta and Gozo, Europe
Qawra

It's time to sit back, take things easy and experience the unique atmosphere of Malta's popular resort of Qawra - from our most well-liked hotels in the area, the Bella Vista Hotel.

The Bella Vista has a modern ambience and offers a range of facilities to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The location, on the outskirts of Qawra near the tree-filled Salina Park, makes the hotel a relaxing place to stay.

The Bella Vista hotel is a great value choice in a quiet location:

Much better than we thought

I was worried after seeing lots of reviews but we had a great stay for 7 nights, the room was clean and good for the price!

The pool was nice and did have a lot of young people playing music but they didn’t bother us at all.

We went to Popeye village which was great, uber to Valletta which was stunning and a night in Gozo!

TripAdvisor Review
Been coming to Malta for 18 years and stayed in all sorts of hotels but Bella Vista I'll rate as the worst Hotel in St Paul's Ba

We stayed at the Bella Vista Hotel for four nights in June 2026. We paid €48 for the upgraded room. We were shocked by how outdated the room was. The air-conditioning broke down after two days and the shower was awful. Going hot and cold every few seconds. The hotel was packed with Spanish students aged between 12 and 25, Swinging off the balcony, Loud music till 2am, Shouting across, Swearing, Smoking weed oh you name it they were doing it. The hotel was a total nightmare from start to finish. The staff wasn't interested at all when reported. The lift broke down. We paid for Breakfast and Dinner! That was awful... Choice of three meals, Choice of Three Puddings and no water on the table... You had to pay for drinks. I would not recommend this hotel if you're looking for a peaceful holiday away. Worst experience of my life and never again. Look elsewhere if I'm honest.

TripAdvisor Review
Only the staff kindness was perfect there.

Location good enough for buses and sea cost. I had all inclusive, but it was very poor choise of food and drinks. Bar closed at 23.00. Hotel was clean. Pool is small, but it was enough space for everybody to swim and tan. Very very friendly and helpful staff. There are summer camps for kids-teenagers. So pool several days was closed from 8pm till 11pm for a private party. One night kids were departing somewhere so loud at 2.30-3.20am and their tutor was ignoring my request to be respectfully quiet to other guests.

TripAdvisor Review
Worst hotel experience ever

One of the worst hotel experiences I have ever had. At no point during the booking process were we informed that the hotel would be accommodating a large group of students. Had we known this, we would have chosen to stay elsewhere. Unfortunately, many of the students showed a complete lack of respect and consideration for other paying guests, which had a significant impact on our stay. During our visit, we reported several incidents to reception. The most serious occurred when one student discharged pepper spray into another student’s face. I was caught in the spray while passing by, leaving me with sore, irritated eyes and persistent coughing. This was an extremely concerning incident, yet it did not appear to be treated with the seriousness it deserved. Throughout our stay, there was constant disruption, including doors being slammed at all hours of the day and night, shouting in the corridors, and water fights. As a result, we had very little opportunity to rest or sleep. Despite reporting these issues on multiple occasions, the reception staff appeared largely uninterested in resolving them. We repeatedly asked to be moved to a quieter room, but were told this was not possible because the hotel was fully occupied. When I eventually spoke to the manager, I was astonished to discover that he was completely unaware of both the pepper spray incident and our repeated requests to change rooms. This demonstrated a clear lack of communication and concern within the hotel. To make matters worse, no apology, explanation, or gesture of goodwill was offered. Instead, I was met with an attitude that suggested our experience simply wasn’t a priority. I wonder had I been a male if things would have been dealt with differently. Overall, this was an extremely disappointing stay. The lack of transparency before arrival, the unacceptable behaviour that was allowed to continue, and the apparent indifference shown by staff and management fell well below the standard I would expect from any hotel. I would not recommend staying here and certainly would not return. On a positive note the cleaning staff and restaurant staff are outstanding especially Natalia and Robin!
