Hotel San Andrea

Stayed here for three nights, lovely sea view from room. Staff very helpful, took advantage of happy hour and breakfast options were perfect for us. Rooms were made up daily, were clean and no complaints here. We were happy here during our short break in Gozo.

Set on Xlendi promenade, with views and gentle sounds of the Mediterranean Sea is this lovely hotel. We chose a room with sea view and sat on the balcony to read each evening and to watch the sun go down before dinner. The Zafiro restaurant is outstanding and we think it is very good value considering the amazing quality…what a great chef they have here! All of the staff were friendly and helpful and we couldn’t have had a nicer stay. Rooms are clean and practical and have TV, tea and coffee making facilities, en suite and hair dryer. I suggest you bring shampoo and a bar of soap unless you like liquid soap dispensers but I’m ‘old school’ and like my own products. Close by is a small but well stocked convenience store, fish bar, and a collection of small but pleasant bars and cafés. A cocktail bar is a short walk up the hill and is worth a pre dinner drink…but don’t forget to return here for an excellent meal. There’s a local bus nearby (2€) and the island tour buses stop here too just 50 yards away. Taxis are available and good value eg getting to the capital cost us 8€ (We used Bolt app for this). Gozo is a beautiful, gentle paced island and is well worth a visit. We were staying in Malta and came to this hotel for 5 nights, travelling from Valletta by fast ferry. (3€ Single).

Great location! Restaurant staff friendly and breakfast was good. The downsides are many……street noise unbearable and loud music playing from neighbouring restaurant until 1am did not help. There’s also construction works - the area is being totally spoiled by modern developments which are unsympathetic to such a wonderful environment. The hotel is tired and seems a bit unloved. There’s a rooftop terrace that isn’t promoted - with a little bit of inves**ent could be a great amenity for hotel guests. The rooms need a facelift. Would only recommend for one or two nights.

Even though ours was a short stay, 11 December till 13 December, it was a very comfortable stay. Breakfast was very good and staff were very polite. In fact on checking out, I told the receptionist that this was the first time that we came but it would not be the last. They will definitely see us again. Judith Schembri

We saw this hotel and this bay for the first time in 2010. After 12 years we came back to the same place. a lot has changed ... too much ... new buildings, which in my opinion spoil the view... But the hotel is lovely, clean with friendly service. Good food in the hotel restaurant. Simple, tasty...like by mama....Very good white house wine!!!!!!
