First time staying at this hotel. Went for a 2 night stay during our 2 week holiday in Malta. Firstly Xlendi is beautiful, the beach and restaurants 2 minutes walk from hotel. The premises has undergone a major refurbishment and is now called Block but hasn't gone official with the name change online yet,at the time of writing this review. The welcome on arrival was lovely, I must mention Alison who was on reception. Not only a beautiful person but so professional, helpful and makes you feel like you are returning friends. What an asset to the business. All the staff we encountered were helpful and friendly. We had breakfast at the hotel, first class . I booked a deluxe studio on the first floor. Super king sized bed ,very comfortable, lovely shower . We didn't use the kitchen but everything you need is there,coffee machine that uses pods,a kettle,pans etc everything even a cork screw! The live music is fabulous it was a Friday for us,no problem with noise in the room which considering we were right above it was surprising. The bar area is very modern and comfortable as is the theme throughout the hotel Just a couple of things, there was nowhere to put a suitcase to unpack other than the bed in our room. It wasn't a problem for us as we didn't have a case and there was nowhere to put toilet bags in the bathroom other than the floor. I hope the lovely rooms don't get spoilt because of this. Would definitely stay again ,thank you to everyone at the "BLOCK"
