The hotel is right on the water in a beautiful area with a long boardwalk close to shops and restaurants. The breakfast was wonderful with outdoor balcony overlooking the ocean. The hotel provides access to the gym, pool, hot tub abd sauna in the adjacent facility. There were renovations going on inside and some noisy construction next door. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Great facilities (gym, pool, sauna). Friendly staff. Good location. Spacious and clean rooms. Lovely roof top bar.
The staff members were great from the young men who took care of my room on a daily basis, to the staff at Reception, to the waiters in the bars and restaurants. The waiters in the Triton Restaurant, where I had two meals each day, went above and beyhond the call of duty.
The hotel has good amenities. I wish I'd been there in the warmer season to take advantage of the outdoor pool which is built into the rocks right on the Mediterranean.
The room was spotless. It also was great for a family of 4. The price was worth it. It has everything- spa, gym, internal pool..... The staff was excellent too. Great experience. Thank you!
The staff at the Preluna were excellent, especially Aslam at the front desk. Luckily I saw him on the sidewalk as I was limping to the hotel as I had sprained my ankle and he ran to get me a wheelchair and made sure I had ice. The hotel was incredibly clean. Was noisy during the day with renovations setting off the alarm in my room three times but that won’t last.
Room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. Ideal for a long stay. We were disappointed with the Skyroom Grill, however, which was expensive yet the food was very average.
Had wonderful views across the sea and bay and even better was the sun rising - which were fabulous
Pool very convenient/ Food excellent and staff went out of their way to answer any query or help whenever asked.
Very convenient walk to Sliema itself which we really enjoyed too
A GREAT stay all in all
It was centrally located in Sliema. There were plenty of restaurants nearby and within the hotel itself. We had a beautiful balcony overlooking the water and the promenade. Everything was walkable. The hotel was in excellent condition and the breakfast was amazing. Totally enjoyed our time at the resort and would stay again
Amazing! This hotel had everything! The service was excellent, the location was perfect, the view was spectacular, the room was comfortable, the food was great! Loved it all; would definitely come back and would recommend this stay!! We stayed for 4 nights and could have stayed longer!!
This is our third stay at the hotel and the only place we will book to stay. The location is perfect, the rooms lovely with excellent views and the staff friendly. I have dairy and gluten intolerances and at breakfast was always provided with soya milk and gluten free bread ( sometimes it took at little while to get it ) Didn't eat at the hotel at any other time but the breakfast was great.
We stayed in a family room, which has 2 separate bedrooms. The seaside view from large balcony was really nice.
t's always hard to exactly know beforehand what you are going to get and our expectations were exceeded!
The hotel has a very customer focused service attitude. Starting from free welcome drink during check-in to free water and wine waiting at the room + almost daily small 'treats' left on top of the bed.
We liked the quality and selection of breakfast. There is a skybar on top with good cocktails and perfect views.
The hotel is conveniently located. It is very easy to take a ferry to Valletta (2,5 eur per direction) and bus stops almost at the hotel entrance. Very easy to reach gozo or other cities by direct buses going with 20- or 30-minute intervals.
