Block

This was my third time staying at The Block, and every visit has been fantastic. It’s become one of those places I genuinely look forward to coming back to each trip.
The rooms are always spotless, comfortable, and perfect for relaxing after long days of diving. Everything is really well looked after and the whole place has a great atmosphere.
The restaurant and bar at the front is also excellent. The food was amazing throughout my stay, whether it was breakfast before diving, lunch during the day, or dinner and drinks in the evening. Every meal was consistently great.
What really makes The Block special though is the staff. Everyone is so friendly, welcoming, and incredibly helpful, always going out of their way to make sure you have a great stay.
A huge thank you again to the whole team — I’ll definitely be back for a fourth visit soon.

Amazing place to stay, especially if you combine it with RITUAL diving. I was even allowed to have a shover after my checkout because I dived. Recommend!

Dive with Ritual, stay somewhere else!
While everything looks quite stylish on the internet, this hotel is not exactly what I would be looking for when having a relaxed dive holiday.
1) It's incredibly noisy! As others have written before, you can actually hear the music/karaoke/party in every room, even with your windows closed. Sometimes I couldn't even sleep with earplugs in! (When I told the staff, they shrugged it off saying "It's lively. ")
2) The rooms are somewhat dark and stuffy. The bedroom just has a tiny window that opens up to an interior shaft. This lets the noise in (see above), but barely makes for a breeze. The balcony has a concrete walls/railing so high up that you can't even see the street. Barely any hangers to dry your dive stuff.
3) We arrived in the middle of the night and were quite thirsty. The shops had already closed, so we bought water off Front. They charge you TEN TIMES as much for water as the shop and there is not even a small bottle of complementary water in the room.
3) They sometimes needed 45 minutes in the morning just for a toast with jam. This makes you a little nervous if you have some dives scheduled…
Go somewhere else, get a good night's sleep, relax, pay even less. ;)

The staff at this hotel truly set it apart and made our stay exceptional. From the friendly bar staff at the front bar to the welcoming reception team, everyone went out of their way to make us feel comfortable, including our dog Theo. The one-bedroom apartment we stayed in was spotless and well-equipped, providing everything we needed for a relaxing stay. A thoughtful touch was the complimentary drinks offered upon check-in, which we enjoyed at the front bar.
The hotel is very pet-friendly, and it was clear that the staff views themselves as part of a close-knit team, making us feel like we were joining their extended family.
The only downside was the area around Xlendi, which can feel a bit rundown early in the morning and late at night, with some individuals who might seem a little out of place. However, parking is easily accessible, and we had no trouble finding a spot near the hotel.
Overall, I would absolutely consider staying here again on my next visit to Gozo.

Excellent service from the staff. More than happy to help. Excellent food, good value for money. Exceptionally clean rooms. Great location, bus services just outside the hotel. Lovely walks nearby. This hotel has to be the place to stay.

Incredibly convenient location and cool concept with so many things going on under one roof. Loved the service, the vibe, the decor in the rooms — these are my new favourite digs in Xlendi from now on.

Clean, great food, cool rooftop bar and pool, comfy beds, great location, modern and organised but above all the service was excellent. Staff are happy to help, welcoming and it was service with a smile!

Really amazing value for money, the staff at the is so welcoming, kind and accommodating. The included breakfast is really exceptional and the rooftop pool and bar are really great facilites to have access to. The Ritual Diving Center next door is fantastic, super well organized and fun.

Hotel que es mono pero no tienes sitio para nada, claustrofóbico, habitaciones de 12 metros cuadrados.
Si pesas más de 70 kilos no vas a tener habitación para nada.
No te cambian las toallas sábanas salvo que pagues a mayores cosa que no entiendo.
No tienes sitio para tender la ropa cuando vienes de la playa lo que hace que la habitación tan pequeña se llene de olor a playa sal etc.
El desayuno está bien. Y la ubicación del hotel también.
Hubo un corte de la luz y no nos dieron más explicaciones, estuvimos dos horas sin luz, sin recibir contraprestación alguna o disculpa directa.
Tuvimos que dejar 100€ de fianza.
Yo mejoraría las habitaciones y hacerlas más espaciosas. El resto por el precio que tiene es pasable. Hay pensiones mejores.
Hotel that is cute but you don’t have room for anything, rooms of 12 square metres.
If you weigh more than 70 kilos, you won’t have room for anything.
They don’t change your sheets unless you pay older, which I don’t understand.
You don’t have a place to hang clothes when you come from the beach, which makes the small room full of the smell of beach, salt, etc.
The breakfast is good. And the location of the hotel too.
There was a power cut and they gave us no more explanations, we were two hours without light, without receiving any consideration or direct apology.
We had to leave a €100 deposit.
I would improve the rooms and make them more spacious. The rest for the price it has is passable. There are better pensions.

Amazing time at Block! perfect location, nice roof top pool with great music, comfortable room, incredibly helpful staff. I could not mention Juliana, the hotel manager, who made our stay unforgettable. Defo worth booking your stay in Block while in Xlendi! I think the reception staff is doing the great job here making your holiday perfect.

Had a fantastic stay! Loved the delightful breakfast, cozy atmosphere, stunning rooftop, and incredibly friendly staff. Can’t wait to return!
Loved the rooftop pool with stunning views and the bar’s signature cocktails. Perfect spot to unwind!

Had day at the roof top pool. Hotel is lovely but be prepared the roof top pool is decorated in black and dark grey so everything is so hot. All my silver jewellery were ruined with the chemicals in the pool (real silver by the way)

I loved the rooftop — the atmosphere was great, with a fun mix of Latin music that really set the vibe. The food was amazing; everything we tried was full of flavor, and the empanadas were definitely a highlight. The service was also excellent — the staff was friendly and welcoming. Plus, the place was very clean and well-kept. Definitely a spot I’d recommend to my friends in Malta.

Had a great stay. The stay and dive package makes diving really easy and convenient. The food was good and all the staff were lovely. Unfortunately one of the things I was most looking forward to other than the diving was the pub quiz. I’d heard stories about the epic quiz nights and was quite disappointed when I arrived to find they were no longer going on! It would be awesome the quizzes started back up again!

Super hotel. Fabulous location in the beautiful Xlendi Bay Area. Wonderful restaurant/bar on the main floor and comfortable, trendy modern rooms. Friendly staff and great food.

Very good service, we had 1 bedroom apartment very clean, with 2 TVs, a kitchenette, with enough space to move around. It is only a corner away from the Xlendi beach.

Stayed already 3 times at same hotel. Staff exceptional and cleanliness too.
Very close to the Wonderful Xlendi Bay.
Already booked another stay.
