Hello
we stayed a few days at Radisoon in September 2002.
First they wanted to give us a room with no view that smelled of smoke, but then after telling them that I was allergic to smoke (l lied but I do hate it when people have smoked int he same room as wher ei am supposed to sleep) they suddenly found us a room with partcial view over the ocean.
The receptionists where very friednly,t he room was great, very big.
The breakfast was oh so good, we where on halfboard and we did NOT like the food or the entertainment. And halfboard is just a waiste of money, there are restaurants close to the hotel.
They have s shuttle which drives you into Valetta and Sliema and they demanded money for this.
My tip walk to the next Hotel, Corinthia Hotel Gorg and use their shuttle, it is for free.
They have three pools outside and one inside, they where very very nice.
The towels.. well they where small, very small and you could only have one. One got a towel card on check in and one could exchange that every day for a small towel. If one did not have the card on departure one would have to pay 5 Lira (what a joke)
We really enjoyed ourselfs, we slept very well and I would recomend this hotel.
Regards,
Linda

A truely five star hotel. Compliments must be paid to the staff especially the Kon Tikki Restaurant. The food is first classs - the carvery is tremendous and the service is spot-on. Mountains of smoked salmon and seafoods, with a very good veggie choice
The public rooms are excellent and very stylish and the whole place is immaculate. The shop is a bit of a non-starter with a very limited stock (no emery boards or hair conditioner!)
The only disappointment was the room, which we found a bit tatty and the beds were of the chipboard platform kind with a very firm mattress. The furniture was of the brown veneer type and quite badly chipped. The doors on the cupboards were very noisy and the sound transfered so when people were getting up or ready to go out in the evening, all you could here were the sounds of these doors banging.
However the balcony was huge, although the furniture was of the cheap white plastic type and we had to beg for a table. We were on the ground floor, so we were almost on the rocks, and you could sit up in bed and watch the boats sailing by. The entertainment was very varied, including a very good modern jazz quartet, although the pianists in the bar and restaurant were from another planet musically!

Sadly no longer 5 Star. Cutbacks have been made so the Bridge Bar is no longer open during the day which is a pity as the Bar staff there are wonderful. It took us 3 attempts to get a blocked drain cleared in our bathroom, this was only after asking Management to visit our room to smell for themselves. The maids had an interesting way of waking you to clean the rooms by hoovering outside your door at 8am, the sheets didin't fit the beds and the towels I would use for rags at home. Management seemed to feel that drilling holes in our adjoining wall logical at 9am without informing us. We had a young baby in one of our adjoining rooms which screamed incessantly from 6am onwards with the parents shouting above it to each other. I heard other holiday makers request to have the pool cleaned as it took on a very unpleasant murky colour during our stay and the bottom of the pool was very slippery.
In general front house staff are very friendly & helpful, the food is generally good if not repetative, rooms are of a good size with good views and you won't get an upset stomach from the water.
We stayed there last year and were dismayed by the lowered standards and cut-backs.
Tip: Book this hotel directly through Radisson and you will pay practically half price as rooms are booked per room per night for up to 3 people

This is a true 5* hotel with excellent facilities. The ala-carte restaurant is superb (recommend the fillet of beef for 2 and the pancakes). The pool is of a good size with a swim up bar. In the 2 weeks we were there, we didn't have any troubles getting a sunbed.
The bedroom was huge with a lovely seaview. It also has a minibar, complimentary towelling robes (no you can't keep them) and a pay per view English movie channel.
The negatives:
The hotel has good conference facilities so there are a lot of conferences going on, these can sometimes be a bit disruptive.
Prices for drinks are extortionate at the hotel,
