Quiet location in Sliema. Modern Hotel with fantastic amenities.
The Pool was one of the best i have ever visited on vacations, with views over the city. The room was spacious, modern, with a nice view.
Staff was fantastic and helped with any request we had.
Our flight left before the breakfast buffet opened so they even provided us with freshly made sandwiches and fruit, that we can take with us and eat on the road.
Room was well presented, clean and had everything you need. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. The facilities were great, the outdoor pool on roof has a great view, the gym also benefits from the view, some of the kit could use a service. The indoor pool was a let down, little more than a communal bath with couples snogging and kids tearing about and you need to duck to get in due to the low ceiling if you are above average height!
Nice hotel. Breakfast was average buffet fare. Indoor spa area disappointing. But good location and price.

Very comfortable large bedroom and bathroom. An excellent hotel with beautiful outdoor and indoor poolsw
with Sauna,hamman ,icepool,jaccuzzi. Well done ST !
Great location, staff were lovely, breakfast tasty, views from the rooftop bar and pool exceptional. Overall a wonderful vibe and a short walk from everything in Sliema (including the 5 minute ferry across to Valetta). Wonderful little trip, thank you so much for having us.
The Reception in general was fantastic, but a special thanks to lovely Ivana. ❤️ She is really amazing.
Room was very nice and spacious.
Decent gym and breakfast! Nice view from the balcony.
Our stay at this hotel was amazing. Wouldn’t change a thing. Enjoyed the location and the room itself. Perfect size for a couple. Loved the full length mirror and the small balcony. Wonderful staff. Breakfast was pretty good. Would especially like to thank Sarah at the front desk. She really helped make sure that our stay was so memorable. Thank you!

Check in was smooth, staff were welcoming and accommodating. The room was well designed and spacious. Bed was comfortable and the shower had good water pressure. I was particularly impressed with the gym facilities, a spacious area with ample cardio equipment as well as plenty of fixed weight machines and free weights. I paid the additional fee for breakfast on one morning and found the buffet to be varied in terms of choice as well as of a good quality. The hotel is conveniently situated, just a short walk from the main area of the town where there is an abundance of restaurants, shops and other attractions. I would definitely stay here again and I would also recommend it to anyone looking for a hotel in this area.
Mixed but ultimately positive experience. The hotel is clean and modern with good amenities and a decent location. The spa staff and housekeeping were outstanding but the main reception was inconsistent and it really depended on who available to deal with your questions. The lobby bar is small, but had enough options and was fairly priced for the area. The spa was far too busy in the evenings and was filled with screaming kids, making it less of a serene relaxing experience and more like being at a leisure centre swimming pool, the 7PM closing time also didn't help.
