    Beautiful beach, lower end of 5* star with an “all inclusive” holiday style feeling

    damp smell: all beach towels have odor. had a similar smell in the bedroom, but could not figure out where it was coming from

    facilities: good, nice swimming pools, adults only area, small food shop within the hotel. beach: beautiful - the beast sandy beach in Malta, in my opinion. staff: nice, no issues. Food: a sufficient choice - asian, italian etc cuisines in the restaurants; tasty. take-away option available too. +/- Other observations/ neutral: breakfast was fine, tasty, but perhaps not enough variety for 5+day stays Activities: lots of them, but trips to the Blue Lagoon etc overpriced; tourist oriented, but basic with no value for money Beach: you will need beach shoes, as lots of stones for 2m or so when you enter the sea. also long stairs to the beach location - although beautiful, it is far away from other places. so plan in advance if you would like to go sightseeing etc: rent a car, bus option available but infrequent , hop on bus could be also an option!

    The hotel have many things to improve... as a 5* hotel these should have been solved long ago. Problems: 1. Airconditioning was smelly in the room. It should have been cleaned more frequently. Therefore the room was smelly. 2. No children play area... The indoor was closed, however we went there many times 3. Outdoor play area is a small tiny place.... On the sun...so we could not use it at all. 4. Showers would be nice to have next to the pool on the way up from the beach (I have found one only). 5. Beach is extamly cowded. Again if it would be a 3* hotel I would no complain. !!!But for a really expensive and 5*.. no.. that is not good. 6. The italian restaurant.. pizza was bad and we have waited a lot. Thez had a lot of emptz tables but htez had to chekc if thez have.. however before/after/during our dinner at least half of the tables were empty.

    Location is nice. The pool was good. Also it is next to the see, so very comfortable location. Breakfast was nice. The staff was very kind and they did a great job.

    Although once again the hotel lived up to it's expectations unfortunately this time an incident happened with a very rude staff member which ruined the holiday. Luckily it was on the last day but I doubt I'll be comfortable returning.

    I've been spending a few days here every summer for the past 7 years because it was my ideal place to unwind without the stress of travelling. The various restaurants allow you to eat and drink in the resort without the hassle of driving and parking.

    I can recommend the hotel if you don't need the pool.

    The whole pool area. No service at all and it seems that the pool is never cleaned as it is full of moss. No fresh juices for breakfast.

    The location is good. There are enough parking spaces for a car and if you travel without a car, there are some bus stations nearby. Staff were mostly nice and kind, although there were some staff that was the opposite.

    Quite remote, needed to hire a car to visit other locations. Also wasn't disabled access to beach which was a shame as it was a blue flag beach and had a lift to beach restaurant but then steps down to the beach.

    Location close to beach. Lift to beach. Nice pool, plenty of sunbeds. Great sea view, worth paying extra for it.

    We expected a better shower preferably a walk in or at least a cubicle not in the bath. mattress not comfortable.

    breakfast was very good with a lot of food to choose from. staff at the reception was very polite and helpful.

    We are really disappointed with booking com You guys made our summer stay at Radisson Blu Resort & Spa, Malta Golden Sands so tragic We book 2 rooms, 3 days, from Fri, 20 - 23/5, Monday When we arrived, there was no name on which we booked the Radisson Blu hotel, the staff tried searching for hours to find it. Sunday, 22/05 only 2 days, hotel staff called and knocked on the room door, while I was working, they kicked us out only 2 days. What a gloomy Sunday We need to advise you, because of what you did wrong to us Hope you've adjusted your way of working and hopefully, your customers won't have any of the same problems as we did today.

    Best resort we have ever stayed at! We will definitely return in the future! Amenities like the sauna and getting food and drinks at the beach (and a reasonably priced massage package) were perfect after much travelling through Europe

    some guests treat staff shamefully. managers refuse to do anything to intervene leaving staff walking on egg shells. car parking charges ridiculous had to pay on checking out to go to airport. spent £2500 over the week and had to pay this. shame on Radisson. Starting to look dated. Room refurb would not go amiss.

    Great location. Food fresh and tasty when you treat staff as human beings with feelings will go the extra mile for you.
