The hotel staff were kind, friendly and knowledgeable of the area whilst the hotel was kept clean and very tidy. The hotel was conveniently placed for transport links and only a few minutes walk to the Valletta ferry.

I’ve travelled to many different country’s and stayed in fab hotels but this has to be one of the best. The staff are so pleasant, helpful and happy to help. The hotel is in a fab location. Breakfast was really good. The chef often came out to chat to us and offer goodies he had made. Management also mingled in the breakfast and would ask how your stay was going. The room was large and had everything you needed. Honestly would highly recommend this hotel for anyone going to Sliema. It also has an amazing lido which is free to use. The pool is heated. Loved this hotel.

The property is in a good location on the waterfront, close to the local bus stops, ferry services and tourist buses. Can be noisy with the windows open but the air conditioning was good so not generally a problem. Good choice of restaurants within walking distance of the hotel We enjoyed a barbecue night at the rooftop restaurant and enjoyed drinks at the roof top bar a couple of nights. We enjoyed the use of the indoor swimming pool but it could get busy late in the afternoon.

Access to the outdoor pool opposite was excellent and a great facility. Also the indoor pool and hot tub great. Roof top bar is great for a drink but they could make more of the space to accommodate more guests. The hotel is on a busy road so traffic can be noisy. We had a harbour view room which was lovely but equally very noisy. We were put in a disabled room which was very spacious but had no drawer space in which to put clothes.

Beautiful property with a decent selection for breakfast buffet. Sliema area is vibrant with lots of dinning option and easy transportation. Hotel wasn’t able to let us stay in the same room after our tour ended despite us checking right when we arrived and twice after. The room we got switched to had a leaky shower that got the bathroom floor all wet.

Excellent location for boat trips and beautiful views across the harbour. Service was a little slow in the Ceilo lounge but otherwise service excellent. Particular highlight was the bbq evening at 1Olive, supervised by the head chef who made everyone feel welcome and took time to speak to guests. He was happy to cook an extra steak exactly as requested, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Very well-appointed hotel in convenient location for visiting Valletta and sightseeing in broader Malta. Hotel dining (including breakfast) options were great and many other restaurants nearby. View from rooftop bar was sensational. Room was spacious and nicely furnished and decorated. Frustrating that Hotel did not have a usable map of Valletta and Malta.
