The resort is located in the center of the island, but you can walk to the promenade or town in 15-20 minutes. The resort is very clean and well maintained. The pools and wellness facilities are very nice and can also be used with a baby. The staff is super friendly and courteous. We felt very comfortable and could go to the staff with any request. The shuttle bus to the surrounding towns is well and safely organized and helped us to explore the island. We can definitely recommend the resort and the island of Malta.

The hotel was in a residential area and the shuttle service was not regular and also stops at 12.30. we had booked a tour on one of the days and realised no cold or hot water when we woke up. Had to use the guest toilet and go to the tour without having a shower as the tour was at 8.30am. they had some excuse that the whole block was affected. not very happy.

As always, this review is subjective and depends on what you are looking for. As a family of 5 with teens and young children this turned out to meet all our needs. We had a two bedroom family suite which was very spacious and had a fridge freezer, hob, oven and dishwasher. We were 10-15 min walk from the local shops which included Lidl. The hotel provided a free shuttle to Sliema or Valletta which was very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

I loved my stay here at Urban Valley! It was so clean and modern and always well kept. The staff were so lovely and catered to your every needs. They had two big pools which was a bonus. And the breakfast was delicious!! All the main city centres were merely about 20-30 min drives away or less. Would definitely recommend when staying in Malta.
