Canifor Hotel Qawra

Unfortunately the Canifor came as a bit of a shock. It is very old and dated and its location wasn't great. The food was terrible, though edible. The receptionists were lovely. It needs remodernising, relocating and a much bigger pool.

After reading several bad reviews I was nervous to try this hotel, however the rooms were spacious, the food was to satisfy everyone, if we required something without meat we just asked and within 15 mins we had another meal. The staff both in reception and resturant were friendly. I really enjoyed my stay. Swimming pool was of average size, however had swimming pool inside. This was a bargain find and I will go back!

The Canifor is well located in a quiet street just a short walk away from two resorts - Qawra and Bugibba so you can easily walk to either in about three minutes. The bus terminal is nearby too and you can go anywhere on the island via bus for next to nothing. The hotel itself - well the rooms are cleaned and beds made daily, towels changed daily. The hotel is immaculate. We stayed on the all inclusive deal. The food is superb - plenty of choice and always piping hot. Extensive choice of snacks available during the day. Bar service was superb and all of the staff had a fantastice attitude and couldn't do enough for you. The evening entertainment wasn't exactly the London Palladium but if you fancy a walk out there is lots going on. Would recommend to anyone.

4 star.. You’re having a laugh. Don't go there this time of year unless.. 1] you're over 70 [and have your parents with you] 2] you're not at all fussy about your food...i.e., you don’t mind sausages so tough you cant chew them, it doesn't bother you to find a dead earwig in your salad, you only like your soup warm anyway [at least the plates/bowls are red hot though],you like your toast either barely cooked or black, monotonous menu, don’t like fresh fruit, coz you certainly wont see any, uninspiring repetitive sweets/puddings[they look ok but that’s all], mis-described meals [i.e. roast turkey was actually 'turkey roast', you know.. all the odd bits pressed together to make a turkey joint. Did I mention the pool view from my balcony? Oh, and the building site [they start work very early over there] The entertainment? A middle aged couple with an organ and a tambourine playing endless 40's and 50's tunes OR a very poor [in my opinion] crooner doing it his way [certainly not...... Read more

Rooms were clean, we were on an all inclusive the food was average could have had a better choice, some of the staff could have been more friendly, location of hotel good very central to bus station, the entertainment wasn't very good a lack of variety, we did however meet a lot of nice people on this holiday, who made it more enjoyable.
