We should like to thank both Mercury Direct and Hotel Fortina for an enjoyable holiday and for the comfortable room upgrade which was much appreciated. We hope to have another holiday with you next year!
from Mr & Mrs Isham in Hampshire
staying at Fortina Hotel
This will be the seventh time i have travelled with Mercury Direct also having recommended your company to various friends, who have also been delighted, the cost of the exact same holiday with another travel company being far higher, the no single supplements, low charges for taxi to and from Hotel/Airport, the excellent service provided by your local representatives, makes Mercury the ideal holiday makers. May i close in mentioning always the courtesy of those helping with enquiries and bookings. My special thanks to Hannah, who booked this holiday for me, she was a great help, not only on advising in detail various hotels, but also her enthusiasm when i decided to return visit to Malta as opposed to the Algarve. I do thank her for all her patience and advice- February will find me in Madeira.
from Susan Carstairs-Padley in Isle of Wight
staying at Bella Vista Hotel
May I say that i found your attitude and that of your MD most refreshing. As I said in my letter to you i am not a person who routinely makes a complaint simply to endeavor to obtain some sort of discount or refund, so to have you consider my observations and react in the way that you have speaks volumes for the way in which Mercury regards it customers. I received your cheque by the same post and would like to thank you for your prompt and assiduous attention to both matters that has brought everything to a very satisfactory conclusion. My wife and i are looking forward to Visitng the 5* Fortina Spa next year towards the end of May/beginning of June and will without hesitation choose Mercury as our holiday provider.

Dear sir/madam, we have recently returned from a 10 day stay at the hotel Soreda in Qawra and would like to say the hotel was excellent, also your part in transport etc was of the highest standard. My partner and I wish to thank you and all concerned in giving us a fantastic holiday.

Dear Sir/Madam Just a few lines to let you know how delighted we were with our recent holiday to Malta. There were five of us in our group and after our first visit to Malta last year, we enjoyed it so much, we just had to return. Although our hotel (Bayview) was clean and friendly, we wanted a hotel with more facilities. We chose the Preluna, and were so glad that we did. It is a superb hotel. Right from making enquiries with your office, to booking, to the reps in resort to back home, every thing was excellent. We look forward to booking with you again in the near future. Yours faithfully

Dear Mercury Direct, I would just like to say what a great holiday I just had my first time in Malta. Stayed at the Windsor Hotel, Windsor Terrace, Sliema. Lovely and clean soft towels, always hot water, friendly staff, and very good food and great selection. The restaurant manager Ray, so Kind and helpful, Sam the chef did a good spread. I will certainly be returning. Good value. And Air Malta very good. A happy customer. Also Sue your Rep most friendly and helpful.

Dear Sir, My wife and I stayed at the Crown Hotel commencing the 17th January leaving on the 24th January staying in room 1116. We have been to Malta on several occasions staying at various hotels mainly the large ones, but this time was a little apprehensive on a couple of points firstly booking with a company we had never used before also had no idea anything about your hotel its location only a few pictures on the internet. Can I say what a pleasant surprise we got on arrival; our greeting was first class, found the room very clean and tidy. The restaurant was first class good food plenty of selection, and very well presented. All the staff in every department could not do enough for us as guest; they all deserve a big pat on their backs for a job well done. I hope to return to Malta in the future and without doubt will use The Crown again. Thanking you and your staff for a memorable holiday only regret we did not stay longer. Yours Sincerely

Dear Mercury Direct, We have just returned home after spending twenty eight days at the Qawra Palace Hotel, Malta. Before we went we wrote to you regarding our fears caused by some of the comments posted on the internet about the Hotel. Some very scathing indeed. Our experience was that, even though the Hotel is old, it was kept exceptionally clean, the staff in the dining areas, the reception and in the house keeping department were all efficient and friendly and helpful. The food was good, varied and plentiful, and the day time activates arranged by the Hotel and the entertainment put on at night was excellent and catered for all tastes and we certainly had no complaints at all. The reason for this letter is that if the comments on the internet had any substance, we would have certainly complained to you. So we felt in fairness we had to write and say how much we enjoyed our holiday at the Qawra Palace. Incidentally we have stayed two previous Januarys, with Mercury at the Agapinor, Cyprus and the Atlantico aparthotel near Albufeira both of which we have been more than happy with, but on balance taking everything in to account, we think the Qawra Palace hotel comes out on top. Also, thank you for your speedy and reassuring reply to our original letter. Yours Sincerely
from Mr & Mrs Hendy in Dorset
staying at Qawra Palace Hotel
Dear All, Just a short note to say thank you for a wonderful holiday at the MAVINA COMPLEX MALTA. Unfortunately we misplaced our holiday comments form, so we would just like to say it was brilliant. The food was highly recommended, and the staff first class. Have no word of complaint whatsoever. Your representative Rose, who met us at the airport and also took us back, was very helpful and courteous. Also, a word to your rep, Simon, at the resort, who took our bookings, he to was most efficient. Once again, I say not a bad word can be said about the arrangements and planning of our holidays. Many many thanks
from Mr and Mrs Maybury in Alvechurch
staying at Mavina Aparthotel
Dear Mercury Direct, This is just a 'thank you' for the super time my sister and I had at the Fortina Spa in November. The organisation of our trip ran really smoothly. We thought the rep was excellent - very helpful. We loved the hotel and the speciality restaurants were wonderful. We shall definitely come again - with husbands! Although it is some weeks ago I couldn't let the time pass without you getting a positive letter. Oh, and the transport worked very well too. So, keep us posted with any other offers, we might make it in the spring! Your Sincerely
from Mrs Goodacre in Derbyshire

My husband and I and two friends have just returned from one of your holidays in Malta we stayed at the Hotel Fortina in Sliema, and was an excellent trip all round. We were very happy there. We were there from the 18th March for 10 days. All the staff was lovely, friendly and helpful. We flew with easy jet and we were all pleasantly surprised with the leg room on the flight and were generally impressed all round. The staff was first class and would fly with them again. Thank you.
from Mr and Mrs Sutton in Kent

This year we booked for the second time with Mercury Direct for a month in Maltawhich we enjoyed very much. The flight with Air Malta was very smooth. Transfers to and from the airport were spot on.

I would just like to thank you for the efficient way you have handled our booked holiday to Malta. Unfortunately through no fault of mine or yours the holiday had to be cancelled but you dealt with it no 'ifs or buts'.

from Mrs Roker in Woking, Surrey

With reference to our cancelled holiday I would like to say thank you for our cheque which was recieved by us today. I would also like to thank you for the fast way you managed to sort the refund out and the inpeccable way your staff and yourself have conducted your business. (It's a pity most of the other businesses can't be as good as you.) We will definately be using you again for a holiday in Malta later on and possibly further afield as well. I will be highly recommending you to all we know. Once again a big thanks for all your help.

from Mrs Jeannette Shelley in

We have just returned from Malta, and I felt I had to write to you to compliment you on the excellent arrangements for our holiday. It was on an ' All Inclusive ' basis and we could not believe just what good value for money it was. Your Malta representative Kate, was excellent also. So, very well done, Mercury Direct! We are impressed and would like to travel with you again.
from Mr D Street in West Sussex

My purpose in writing to you is to thank you most warmly for the excellent arrangements you made to transport my wife and me to the hotel.My wife and I were delighted with our stay at the Fortina. We were in room 507 which gave us a view across Tigne waterfront towards Valletta. It has to be one of the best views in the world. The restuarants to which we had access with our ' Dine around ' oprtion were excellent and the buffet in La Valletta downstairs never ceases to amaze. Mean while we send our best wishes to you all. We shall be back next year!
from Mr A Male in North Somerset

I would like to thank your staff in Sliema ( Malta ) for their prompt and curtious help. Please could you please pass on this to your rep Jonothan who took care of us.

from Mr and Mrs D Squires in North Yorkshire
staying at Imperial Hotel
With reference to the above booking. We have returned from Malta on the 08th Feb, After 1 month at The Metropole Hotel Sliema. Our stay at this hotel can only be described as excellent. Your local rep Peter did an excellent job in liason with the hotel, our transfers were on time and the vehicles and drivers excellent. Restaurants food was more than acceptable. We paid for a 3 star hotel, it was more than our expectations., a number of guests have stayed before and we would certainly use it again. A great holiday and good value for money.
from Mr R Gray in Dorset
staying at DoubleTree By Hilton Dubai Jumeirah Beach
We have just returned from the fortina hotel sliema malta. We were given an excellant room overlooking the gardens(although we payed £100 extra for a sea veiw,reception said that there were non available). Nevertheless we did not want to spoil our holiday argueing over this.The hotel was magnificent with every amenity possible/close to shops and services. The room was attended every day and the food left nothing to be desired. Thank you for arranging this for us and to the rep in the resort who was there every day and when not a contact number was available. We shall certainly be using your company again.
from Mr and Mrs Cooke in
staying at Fortina Hotel
Thank you for ensuring a truly wonderful holiday at the Hotel Fortina 4*, Sliema. Despite extensive internal and external remedial work being done during our stay we enjoyed the good quality accommodation and dining. The staff were kind and helpful. We will definitely recommend this hotel and your company to others. When we became delayed for two days Easyjet put us up in a wonderful hotel where staff made every effort to make the experience comfortable. We look forward to using Mercury Direct again. Thank you and Happy Christmas to all.

Hi, just a note to let you know that our family holiday to Malta for chrismas was the best we have ever experienced. The Preluna Hotel & Spa in Sliema was A1, the staff were so friendly and helpful- lots of activities espicially christmas which was brilliant, weather was kind as it was warm somewhat strange as we have to endure wet and snowy weather here in the UK normally during christmas period. The food was excellent and drinks - need you say ( esp. all inclusive ) what a good deal we had, from the moment we touched down at malta to the time we hesitantly returned to luton - it was great. Thank you mercury esp. sharon - will definitely be using you for all our future holidays. One happy family from st. albans

My friends and I booked a holiday with you to the Fortina Hotel Malta in January, this is the third time we have been to this hotel and we will definitely be returning again next year. The staff, food and accommodation was excellent. We have found the overall service provided by you reliable and very good value
from Mrs W Stephenson in
staying at Fortina Hotel
The sun on our bones was something else. On one of our days it was 29 degrees. We are not into "organised" holidays & much prefer to do our own thing so for the most part we just slobbed! The food in the restaurants was great. We met some interesting people & the staff were polite, friendly & helpful. Would we do an all inclusive holiday again? Probably not but, what we did do was great. Many thanks.

from Mrs Bridges in
staying at Preluna Hotel and Spa
Have been meaning to write to Mercury Holidays since we returned from a week in Malta last November but never got around to it! It was one of the best holidays my husband and I have had in recent years. We were so impressed with the whole `package? ? the ease in booking/flight arrangements (with Ryanair ? excellent) and the pickup from and to Hotel Fortina. Our room was spacious and well equipped, clean and attractive, the staff were extremely friendly/helpful and efficient and the food exceptionally good ? we very much liked the `dine around? arrangement. We also appreciated not being `herded around? despite the holiday being a `package? and being left to do exactly what we wanted and when. A truly enjoyable holiday ? thank you, we shall go again!

Contact with customer service before leaving very good and precise. All documents arrived in good time. We were met at airport by rep and taxi driver for personal transfer was standing with him and he escorted us to the taxi. Had same driver on return was at hotel early. We would like to express our thanks to the hotel rep Eleanor and commend her service to you. We are seasoned travelers and her welcome meeting was the best and most helpful we have ever had.
from David K Stephens in

I am writing to you in reference to our stay at the Qawra Place Hotel. It isn?t very often that I write to compliment people with the service they have given me but on this occasion I feel the need to do so. With respect I must admit I had never heard of Mercury Holidays therefore was a little reluctant to book ours with you for my wife and I to Malta. How wrong was I! My wife phoned to book our holiday and the gentleman on the other end couldn?t have been more helpful. He talked my wife through everything and our holiday was booked within 15 minutes. We received regular updates about our holiday and we were checked in by yourselves for our outbound flight. We were met at Malta by a rep who directed us to our awaiting transfer. On arrival at our hotel, Qawra Palace, we were checked in by very helpful and polite staff. We were met by Eleanor on the Sunday and she made us feel welcome The hotel was clean and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The food was extremely good with a lot of choice. Prior to departing Malta, Eleanor took our details and checked us in for our return flight. Everything went like clockwork. Our private taxi back to the airport was very good with the driver being extremely polite and knowledgeable, whilst telling us a lot about the history of Malta. All-in-all our holiday went perfectly. Would I book with you again? Without a doubt! Would I recommend you to all my friends and family? Certainly! So please pass on our thanks to all concerned for their excellent work and professionalism they all showed.
