I stayed at Hotel El Maltese with 3 friends for the festivities in August, even though the hotel was full, the attention was very personalized and Maria, who is the hotel manager, was such a nice lady who made us feel welcome at any time, always pending and open to respond our questions and she was really helpfull to organize...

We booked the hotel based on reviews and pictures. When we arrived the staff was extremely helpful and very nice. However, we were assigned rooms 10 & 11 on the lower level. These rooms were full of mosquitoes and smelled very musty. The desk person sprayed the rooms for mosquitoes and then we had the smell of chemicals. Ultimately we... More

Very peaceful location and near to the terminal for ferry to Ometepe. Only 5-10 min. walk to city centre. Hotel staff was extremely welcoming, friendly and helpful! We took the ferry from Granada to Ometepe and Maria Luisa (the hotel manager) booked our hotel for us. Good information on Granada is also available. I loved the views to the lake... More

The hostess did a great job at giving us precise directions so that we never got lost while we were in Granada. There was a power shortage in the city while we were there. Our hotel was prepared and had an... More

I have stayed in this hotel several times dating back 6 years. I have not been to the hotel in the past three years but I will have to admit that the owner and staff have remained unchanged. They continue to treat each guest as if he or she were the only person there. They are very attentative to individual... More

Words cannot describe how incredible my stay was at Hotel El Maltese. It was the highlight of my trip.

They were kind, welcoming, and made me feel like I was part of the family.... More

We booked this hotel for the first 5 nights of our stay in Granada. We booked in June and had an e-mail from the manager confirming the reservation. When we arrived, nobody could find our reservation (I showed them the printed confirmation) and nobody there at the time could speak English. In our fractured Spanish, we understood the manager or...

My partner and I had a vacation in Central America in the second half of September and first half of October 2008. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. One of the negative aspects, however, was accommodation. With rare exceptions, we found hotels that were badly managed and kept. One of these exceptions was 'El Maltese'. The hotel is small, welcoming,... More
