I wanted to give Urban Isle a 5 star review. However, I am used to having a safe in the room when I travel and this hotel didn't have one. So I had to keep all my valuables with me the whole time as I went out and about. Everything else was excellent. The room was tidy, the air conditioner was working, the food was amazing, the staff were lovely, the location was good, the lift was always working, the view from the roof terrace was cool.

Overall the room was clean, tidy and good value for money. The only downsides were the air conditioning was set for heat and not cooling. Even though I appreciate it's winter for the locals, 16° was still very warm for me and dropping the temperature would have been more comfortable for me. The second niggle was probably just me, but I couldn't operate the TV properly to sign into Netflix. Apart from that all was satisfactory. I'd definitely stay again.

The room was a good size and very clean. Great shower and great breakfast. Restaurant and reception staff were very pleasant and helpful. 10 mins walk from where the TD3 bus from the airport stops off. Buses to Valletta from outside the hotel. Code for hotel and room entrance sent the day before arrival, which worked well. The only issue was the aircon, which was very noisy, even when switched off.

Very good value for money. Perfect for a short stay in Malta. Location is really good and the bathroom facilities are good for the price. Very good shower. Breakfast was included and whilst it’s good value for money the actual variety and quality of the breakfast is very limited. Housekeeping is also not the best. Did not clean the room properly (sometimes didn’t make the bed, take rubbish, give fresh towels). If you’re staying in Gzira for a short stay (3 nights ish), you can’t go wrong with the Urban Isle. Any longer, I’d recommend something a bit more up-market.

The hotel was amazing and the service excellent. however, please know that there is no one at the reception desk after 1pm to assist with questions, directions, phone calls, needs. You are on your own from that hour. Our room was a little smaller than we would have desired, but very nice, as we took a week to celebrate our 50th anniversary. Advice: if you are staying a week or more, be sure to obtain phone service with internet for Google maps and taxis, etc...and buy a bus pass for 25 Euros if you are planning to get around by buses! We definitely recommend this hotel to everyone.

The hotel is well located, and although there was no reception at the time we arrived, the self-check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow. Our room was on the ground floor just after the reception; it was small but clean, with a comfortable bed and an excellent shower.

Unfortunately, breakfast was the biggest downside of our two-night stay. The area was right next to the bins, the staff looked unhappy and were not welcoming, and the food quality was poor — so much so that we skipped breakfast entirely on the second day and ate elsewhere.

Service was also disappointing. On the first morning, I asked about scooter rental (as advertised on posters at reception), but the receptionist said she didn’t know anything and told me to try asking down the road. On the next day, when I returned just before checkout, the receptionist abruptly shouted, “You need to pay €2 for the city tax” while I was on my way to my room — not the best way to approach a guest.

Overall, while the location and shower were good, the poor service and breakfast experience would make me choose another hotel in the same price range and area next time.

Poor sound isolation

Very poor reception service. We were told we will get late checkout at additional fee - which is perfectly fine. But on checkout we were offered to book another night at full price as only option. Right now, we are waiting for reception stuff for over 30 mins to do that and if she does not show up in couple if more mins we are going to some other place.

It was my first time in Malta and i could not have chosen a better hotel for the price I paid. The room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean with a spacious bathroom. The room had tea and coffee making facilties and i enjoyed a nice breakfast every morning.
However the best thing about this hotel was the amazing staff, they were always pleasant and are an absolute credit to themselves.
One thing i may change in future and this is not in any way meant to be a criticism is that i may ask for a delux room which i believe have a window out onto the street outside, mine didnt, in my case the window was into the lughting well and was a little dark sometimes.
All in all i had a great stay at the Urban Isle Hotel and I wouldnt hesitate to stay again.

We stayed here for a long weekend as our son was playing football on the island.

This hotel was perfect for what we wanted, firstly it was a very good price. The room was bang on, nice size, very clean and modern with free tv, Wi-Fi and air con.

Nice quiet street as well, so no noise unlike some of the hotels our friends were staying in.

Breakfast was also perfect, it’s in the basement, very clean and good options.

Overall, very happy and would return to the hotel.

Overall my stay was good - I had requested a room in the quieter part of the hotel and that request was honoured - the only downside - which I am beginning to think is a feature of Malta hotels - is the lack of soundproofing - so you could hear everything people did next door, and unfortunately the functions of the lift every time it went up and down. That was the only downside, but a better experience than another hotel I stayed at previously in Malta.

Breakfast was good and plentiful.

Oh my only other criticism is how hard it was to get into my room (602). They have a keypad system in which you enter a four digit number in order to get into the room - but the door is so stiff (and perhaps new) that I literally had to use a hand and foot to push with force to open! One of the days it must have happened to the cleaning person as they could not open the door to change my towels, but they left a little bag with fresh towels and toilet roll!

Overall...a good stay - I may return here if I return to Malta

A reggeli egyszerű, de megfelelő volt. Volt meleg és hideg étel is, gyümölcsökkel, édességgel. Mi egy belső szobában voltunk, így természetes fény nagyon minimálisan jött be. A levegő is meg van ragadva, így amikor a szobában voltunk folyamatosan használtuk a klímát. Csak aludni jártunk be, így arra a szoba tökéletes. Lift is van. A szoba tiszta volt, nagy zuhanyzó hellyel.

L'hôtel est très simple, le strict minimum, mais propre et confortable. Le double vitrage des chambres mériterait d'être revu, car on entend les beaucoup les bruits de la rue. À cette époque, la réception est ouverte de 8h30 à 13h30, donc surtout n'oubliez pas le code envoyé par l'hôtel. Après une journée a Malte on comprens que l hotel est très bien situé, proche du ferry et des bus, et surtout dans un quartier résidentiel loin du tumulte des hôtels de Saint Julian's et des restaurants touristiques.

L'arrivée autonome est un très bon point car notre vol a été retardé et nous sommes arrivés dans la nuit sans aucun problème. Chambre et salle de bain spacieuses.
Le matelas du canapé-lit était inconfortable par contre celui du lit était correct.
L'isolation avec l'extérieur était très mauvaise et notre chambre donnait sur une rue très passante et bruyante de jour comme de nuit.
Il faisait très chaud dans la chambre malgré une température exterieure douce en octobre. Je pense que cela était dû au fait que la chambre était juste au-dessus d'une pizzeria.
