Hotel Ta' Cenc & Spa

We had a truly memorable stay at this beautiful 5-star hotel and spa. The setting is idyllic, with a perfect balance of tranquility and access to local attractions. It’s an ideal location for both relaxation and exploration.

From check-in to check-out, the staff were warm, professional, and eager to help. The spa is a particular highlight. Peaceful, beautifully maintained, and a real haven for relaxation.

Our room was elegant, spotless, and thoughtfully designed, with lovely amenities and attention to detail. The only slight drawback was the comfort of the bed. While the bedding itself was high quality, the plastic mattress protector underneath was a bit noticeable and detracted slightly from what we had expected to be a completely plush, seamless sleeping experience.

Service by the pool, while friendly, was also a little slower than expected for a hotel of this caliber. It wasn’t a major issue, but there were a few delays in ordering and receiving drinks, which stood out only because everything else was so smooth and efficient throughout the hotel.

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely return. With just a few small improvements, this would be a flawless luxury escape.

Very relaxing and tranquil place.
Just the perfect getaway to unwind from the hustle and bustle of every day life.
Surely will visit again soon.

Hotel common area, garden grounds and pool areas are well kept. But the room is old and badly needs refurbishing. Area at the back of room is not well kept.

The bathroom needed updating.

Zimmer sin sehr in die Jahre gekommen aber das Reinigungspersonal ist sehr bemüht

Quiet, comfortable and very polite and friendly staff. What's not to like?

I stayed at this hotel expecting a 5-star experience, but what I got was far from it.

The room was not particularly clean, which is unacceptable for a hotel of this level. The minibar in our Junior Suite was completely empty, even though they took my credit card as a guarantee for any consumption. It’s hard to understand the logic behind that.

Service was a disaster: the bar and pool areas were practically unattended. Worst of all, at the pool bar, I was refused a drink simply because I was wearing a bathrobe instead of regular clothes. When I politely asked for an explanation, the bar staff member didn’t even stop to talk to me — she just walked past and, without looking at me, said I had to be dressed. The attitude was rude and unprofessional.

At check-in, I was handed a form and told to fill in my own details — again, not something I would ever expect from a supposedly high-end hotel.

Overall, this place lacks the service, attention to detail, and professionalism you'd expect from a true 5-star hotel. I will not be returning, and I cannot recommend it.

It was our second time at the hotel and we even got to stay in the same room. Although the decor may be a little bit dated in the bathroom, the overall impression of the place is one of great comfort and charm. The public areas of very well appointed and inviting. The heated pool is such an additional bonus. The staff is wonderful, the food terrific and the surroundings simply stunning.

We liked it all but have a couple of suggestions to improve it. Ban smoking in all outside eating areas; offer drinks when around the pools; provide a very small shop/area where you can buy essentials (eg sun cream, sun hat, cover up wrap etc); provide better tennis balls or option to buy new balls; the bar staff were under extreme pressure so provide more staff; quality of dinner could be improved a little although was decent value for money

Suite au message transmis à l’hôtel, la Direction a fait un geste pour compenser la chambre horrible que nous avions eue la 1ere nuit.
La suite est nettement mieux, le personnel est parfait et à l’écoute.
En revanche, cet hôtel est très loin d’être un 5*, je mettrai seulement 2*, et c’est déjà beaucoup par rapport au prix de la chambre.
Le SPA est correct, mais vieillot

The property is well laid out, offering well maintained and comfortable areas for dining, swimming and exercise. Staff are well trained and are eager to assist. No issues there.

However, the guest rooms are in need of some attention. Some of the issues we noticed:

1: Broken Tiles in the bathroom.
2: Room furniture shows signs of wear
3: Room air conditioning not operational
4: Bed mattress and pillows are in desperate need of replacement. Mattress is very soft, pillows are very flat.
5: Room TV is small; Remote control has electrical tape holding it together.
6: Toilet seat not entirely secure; shifts while in use
7: Bathtub is small and the bottom is curved (not flat), making it hard not to slip when taking a shower.
8: Could not determine how to use the room safe; no instructions provided.

Respectfully,

Rob Donald

Staff were quite noisy outside
No internet in room even though reported on Day 1.
On the day of my partner's birthday the bed was all done up with towel sculptures and flowers. It was really appreciated
Unique place to stay in

Great stay would highly recommend

Super hotel

Great getaway in Gozo. Walking distance from the Ta Cenc cliffs which are a must see and views of Comino and Malta. Beautiful walks from this hotel and even the amazing Mgarr ix-Xini.

The hotel itself is a haven, great spa with indoor outdoor pool. 2 other outdoor pools. restaurants, bars cool rooms. I would recommend.

Ta Cenc still has its unique style and relaxing atmosphere. There are designated areas for families and adults only. It most definitely is not a theme park!

Tout semble en lambeaux... Le personnel est gentil mais amateur. Seul le cadre est charmant mais ça suffit pas...

A lovely hotel. Excellent, helpful and professional staff. Breakfast exceptional. A beautiful environment for a restful stay.

Nous avons passé 6 jours merveilleux à l'hôtel Ta' Cenc & Spa. Nous avons profité de son cadre fabuleux et de son SPA très agréable.
Le petit déjeuner est top et si vous mangez le soir vous ne serez pas déçu, ni par le service ni par le contenu de votre assiette. Merci à toute l'équipe.

Si on doit retenir un truc moins bien, les chambres sont un peu veillotte. Mais honnêtement je recommande à 100%
