DoubleTree by Hilton Hotels in 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.

There was no towels and no blanket in the room, Otherwise its ok.

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

This is the second time in this hotel. The room was clean. However, some small details were missing. In the bathroom, no shelves to put our things on. The little extra is the balcony and the side view of the sea.

It was all inclusive stay. Food was amazing. All that you need and even more. Hotel has amazing 11 floor pools with view on the sea.

Very mixed evaluation. The hotel is good and very well located, however: - the staff is not often there. We told Maria at reception that our mini-bar was not cooling. Answer, a mini-bar does not cool. We of course had two rooms and in the other, it was completely cold, even too cold. By moving the electrical outlet, it worked. It was reported but no one ever came. - room cards that didn't work three times. Every time we pass, we are told that this happens and the third time, we are told that it is because the tourist tax is not paid. Ironically, we went to reception twice to do this but were told later. - incredible noise in the hotel. The hotel receives groups of young teenagers and they are hellish, we couldn't really sleep until 1-2am. - if you want to reach the reception, pray that your room is with the new facilities. My daughter got a new room and we got a less new one. The telephone did not work and despite reporting it to reception, nothing was done. Otherwise the hotel is good, comfortable, the indoor swimming pool with jacuzzi very good and the restaurant service is excellent. We hesitated with the Seaview and ultimately regretted it. Despite the hotel's good points, we won't be coming back there again, that's for sure.

A good location with a bar and a small restaurant next to the valet for €14 in taxi. Hot and warm staff A sunny and nice breakfast .

The hotel is OK, in line with the price, but you can't complain. The staff is very nice and helpful, the breakfast is good. Tip: There is no shampoo or shower gel, it's best to take a small one with you.
