Reviews for Duncan Holiday Accommodation

Review 1：When we have come the room was very cold and heating there is done only with the help of air condition and in bathroom there is no any heating but it's the problem of all warm countries. Air condition is connected with sensor of movements and at night it's not warking and in the morning was cold. Breakfast basicly seems italian (yogurt, fruits, flakes, juice, coffe) but if you ask it's possible to have it english (eggs, becon, cheese).

Review 2：Room is quite big and comfortable. The owner (Michael) works very much and sometimes he can forget something but he is very nice and always ready to help you. The hotel situated very good (40mints from the airport and 1hour from Valletta with bus) there is no problems to go in every place of the island, sometimes buses are not according the timetable but you should just wait. Fish market every sunday makes the village more "alive" but in general it's very nice, calm and picturesque place. Michael has a very good restaurant where dishes are big and tasty and prices are ok.

Review 3：Parking can be difficult. Kitchenette promoted but no cooking option

Review 4：Right on the bay with excellent access to seafood restaurants. Large quiet and comfortable apartment. Excellent location for Sunday market. Very good value

Review 5：The location was lovely and the staff, in particular the owner Michael, really cared about ensuring that their guests were happy. Would return without hesitation.

Review 6：There was a bad smell in the room for a few hours in the first day. But the other days there were nothing about it.

Review 7：The balcony of the room had really a nice view. The rooms were comfortable and the staff was really very helpful.

Review 8：Dont know the reason, but every 15 min all night it was church bells- IMPOSSIBLE to sleep. I consider location isnt good because of this reason, otherwise- very well located Toilet/bath room with transparent glass doors!? Unfortunately airport transfer was not well supported (we werer asked too high price)

Review 9：Value for money

Review 10：Nothing I didn't like

Review 11：The view was spectacular, the staff were friendly and very helpful. Room cleaned daily. The room was bright and decorated simply but tastefully. Large balcony overlooking the waterfront. Very centrally located.

Review 12：Unfortunately there's no diving club in Marsaxlokk, and hardly any in the south of Malta. Though there's lots of interesting dives around...

Review 13：The owner's hospitality and support (Michael and David) was tremendous. We will surely return!

Review 14：The shower was a little old, but who cares. Bathroom was still nice and comfy.

Review 15：Michael was just the nicest guy ever. He was extremely helpful and very generous, even offering us drinks on the house now and then. The location is beautiful, very calm but with lots of little restaurants right outside. The room was big, clean and very comfortable. Fresh towels every day. Try the food downstairs, it's very good and affordable. I definitely recommend this hotel warmly to anyone. Lovely hotel for a more than reasonable price. Thanks Michael!!

Review 16：The owners Michael and his brother we're very helpful really friendly and always available , cooked us some delicious seafood.we had a very nice large apartment ,really clean with lots of cooking facilities

Review 17：Some parts of the building was still in repairs. To get hot water you have to wait some time. Wifi only outside

Review 18：Very nice staff. Below restaurant. Good location in the city. Room was big, well equipped and comfortable

Review 19：View of the side street/Chinese restaurant from our room. Sea view from the balcony, but because the weather was rainy we didn't spend any time on it. We tried to switch to the front room facing the harbor (the only room with a direct sea/harbor view in the hotel), but unfortunately it was booked up. It is only possible to book this room by contacting Duncan directly, not through booking.com fyi.

Review 20：We had a lovely stay at the Duncan Holiday. Great location right on the harbor of Marsaxlokk. Basic but comfortable and clean room, with balcony. Lovely and helpful staff, especially in the restaurant downstairs. Cosy and quiet during our stay. We had no problem finding parking next to the hotel during our stay.

Review 21：no 24-hour reception, no private parking, it's difficult to find place on side streets

Review 22：central point of the town, between church and waterfront promenade, appartment with kitchenette, very clean, comfort bed, fantastic port view, friendly owner

Review 23：Only quibble is that it was difficult to sleep with the window open (which we normally prefer) as the street below was fairly noisy and busy with traffic from very early in the morning - and the ringing of church bells at regular intervals all through the night! But - not a great problem. It would have been useful to have a couple of easy chairs in the apartment, as the only place to relax was by sitting on the bed.

Review 24：Really liked our 'hosts' Michael and David - extremely friendly and helpful. Location is right on the harbour front, with its colourful Sunday fish market, a daily 'tourist' market and great choice of bars and restaurants.

Review 25：Typical and authentic place in a traditional fishermen village. Good welcome and sympathy in this family run restaurant and guesthouse by Mickael. I recommand for seafood amateur of simplicity.

Review 26：Nothing.
