We’re booked to go to Malta and having never been before am looking for any car hire recommendations. We’ll most likely be staying at the Radisson Blu Golden Sands as we have two kids and it’s on the beach. Is it best to hire from the airport or get a car at the hotel? Most airport companies have dire reviews so any experience welcome. I’ve found one or two family run hire firms (Mirage) that seem to get much better reviews.

I always take the extra insurance anyway as can’t be hassled with the argument.

Also any other recommendations, I know there are several Malta threads on here so will check those out too.
