Hotéis Family-friendly em Bugibba

The simple but clean rooms and the charming cleaning girls. We can't say the same about the reception staff, they didn't even leave us a pen. Not all of them, but there were a couple who were quite unfriendly.

The last hotel in this price range.

The hotel is located in St. Paul's Bay. It takes a long time to travel from the airport to the airport. In addition, the distance from Valletta 3 sister cities is relatively far, and the bus takes about 1 hour. But it is more convenient to go to Gozo Island. On the whole, the hotel room is relatively old and there is no air conditioning, so you need to pay attention in summer. However, the level of hygiene is acceptable, and it can accommodate up to 3 people. If the budget is limited, you can consider this place.

Pebbles Resort has a lot of positives but also some areas for improvement. Location: The location is excellent. It’s situated near a bus stop where you can catch buses to almost every route in Malta. Buses are frequent and cost only €2 for a two-hour ride. The square is a short six-minute walk, offering plenty of food options. Beaches are just a quick bus ride away, and ferries are also easily accessible. Hotel Facilities: The hotel has two pools: an outdoor one and a warm indoor pool. The indoor pool is very comfortable, but the hot tub was disappointing—colder than the pool and with jets that only work for 30 seconds at a time, requiring constant button-pressing. The towels provided for pool use are old and could use an upgrade. The gym is small and often busy, so timing is key if you want to work out. Food: The food was surprisingly fresh and delicious. Unlike many hotel buffets, the staff at Pebbles Resort rotates trays frequently, ensuring the food is both fresh and appealing. However, the buffet and à la carte menus are separate, which was disappointing. I couldn’t try items like cheesecake or creamed chicken from the buffet during à la carte dining. Rooms: The room itself was nice, with some standout features like the television built into the mirror. The balcony was a good size, but my stay was marred by a neighbor plucking cigarette ashes over their balcony instead of using the ashtray provided. Additionally, the refrigerator never got cold, which was inconvenient as there are no ice buckets in the rooms, forcing me to go to the bar for ice. Service: Service left a lot to be desired. When we arrived, our room wasn’t ready. Despite being the only ones waiting, the staff couldn’t expedite the process, leaving my daughter to fall asleep on the lobby couch—a completely embarrassing experience. The hotel also lacks luggage carts and staff to assist with heavy luggage, which is especially frustrating when traveling with kids and a lot of bags. Conclusion: While Pebbles Resort offers a fantastic location, good food, and decent facilities, it falls short in service and attention to detail. Small improvements, like better towels, functional hot tubs, luggage assistance, and quicker room readiness, could elevate the experience significantly. Rating: 3.5/5

Pro The location is super. Bus stop just a few meters away, also testarants and ports with many offers for boat tours.. Nightlife walking accessible. Bus station nearby with extensive range offer. Supermarket, minimarkets and other shops. Equipment, and comfort: The beds - mattresses, kiss, ceilings - are very comfortable.. Air conditioning works well and quiet, noise-smooth doors, darkness hangs, coffee and tea preparation, small refrigerator, smart TV, not bright. The view of the pool on the roof is very beautiful. Breakfast is extensive and certainly something for every taste. There are other restaurants in the house to which I can't say anything. The saunas and the indoor pool are a nice extra. The fitness room is large and equipped with many modern devices. Spa offers are available. All rooms have a balcony. Neighbors have not heard, rooms seem not bright. We experienced the service staff very friendly and helpful. Sustainability: There is only 1 towel per person (which can always be exchanged, instead of countless for the roof pool There are no contrasts, only small things. Matraces for large people could be a little longer. The double bed is single beds moved together. Accordingly, with visitor ridges. Sustainability: in the room the small individual packs for coffee, at breakfast the small individual packs for butter, the towels for the roof terrace could be longer. What was really very bad was the noise scenes on the balcony, which was therefore not really useful. Noise came from electrical aggregate or a mega-air conditioning from the house. The view of the side room had side sea view, but also a view of the neighborhood (3rd floor) that reminded a building site. Therefore the offer price for the double room with breakfast of €72 was also justified.

I traveled to Malta alone and chose the Primera Hotel as one of the cheapest options in Malta. In principle, the travel guide says that Valletta is the best place to stay, but I would not agree with this, as it is an hour from St. Paul's Bay to Valletta, an hour to the ferry to Gozo and half an hour to Rabat/Mdina. Excursions such as to the Blue Grotto only go via Valletta and it takes 2 hours by bus. However, you can combine this with a travel route via Valletta or as the last spot before the airport. The hotel was clean, the rooms were more than adequately equipped and for €8 you could book breakfast on site, which was a bit English but had something for everyone. The only thing that could be difficult is being able to eat more than just fruit and bread as a vegan.
