Big and Busy Place- if you like that sort of environment. No real faults but the building layout could have been better.
The Reef Club at Westin Dragonara的点评
点评:Arrived after staying 5 nights in Valletta in a more bespoke family owned hotel which we throughly enjoyed and were welcomed personally at every opportunity . Our travel advisor however suggested us spending 3 nights at the Westin Dragonara at St Julians.
The room was comfortable, but devoid of any personal touches. The lobby resembled an airport with dozens of of guests darting around to reception and the exits and at no time was any of the staff familiar to us. It is a big hotel .
The weird thing was it was supposed to be rated as a five star hotel . Yes it was on a grand scale but at no time did we think it compared to other 5 star hotels in other world locations we stayed - and certainly nothing like say Singapore or New York.
An “interesting “ feature of this hotel was that to access the swimming pool ( or returning from the pool with wet swimming clothes to your room) you needed to traverse the lobby , right in front of people resplendent in fine clothing, sipping cocktails and listening to the pianist. ( another more discreet elevator access to one’s room not looking like someone coming through with saggy hair and wet swimming clothes would have been a modest innovation design- but unfortunately there was no alternative. So you have new guests, people coming from outside , partly attired swimming guests and people wanting to enjoy a pianist while sipping cocktails, all together in the same lobby. 🥺
翻译:在瓦莱塔一家更个性化的家庭酒店住了 5 晚后,我们抵达了这家酒店,我们非常享受,每次都受到了热情的接待。然而,我们的旅行顾问建议我们在圣朱利安斯的威斯汀德拉戈纳拉酒店住 3 晚。
房间很舒适,但缺乏个人风格。大堂就像一个机场,几十位客人在接待处和出口之间穿梭,没有一个工作人员是我们熟悉的。这是一家很大的酒店。
奇怪的是,它应该被评为五星级酒店。是的,它的规模很宏伟,但我们从来没有想过它能与我们住过的其他地方的五星级酒店相比——当然更不像新加坡或纽约。
这家酒店的一个“有趣”之处在于,要进入游泳池(或穿着湿泳衣从游泳池返回房间),你需要穿过大堂,就在穿着华丽服装的人面前,他们一边喝着鸡尾酒,一边听着钢琴演奏。 (另一种更隐蔽的电梯通道,让进入房间的人看起来不像是顶着松垂的头发和湿漉漉的泳衣进来的人,这本来是一个适度的创新设计——但不幸的是,没有其他选择。所以,你有新客人,从外面来的人,部分着装的游泳客人和想要一边喝鸡尾酒一边欣赏钢琴演奏的人,都在同一个大厅里。🥺
