Great location in Sliema. Bus stop directly across the road which takes you directly to Malta International Airport. All staff were friendly and elpful. Wide range of options for breakfast and dinner. The chef made a great omellette during breakfast which was clear to see by how popular it was with the guests. The sea view room provided a great view of the beach.

Nice hotel, very good beach club which is not typical in Malta. A great plus was that towels, beach club and the relaxing spa pools with sauna were free of (additional) charges. Great views from the sea view family rooms. Friendly staff.

We are so happy with our stay at the Preluna. Everything was great! Our room was lovely. The rooftop was amazing, and the hotel’s location was perfect—just a 2-minute walk to the beach, pool, and restaurants. The staff were so kind and helpful. The spa and gym were both excellent. I highly recommend booking a massage at the spa. Book the Preluna, and you won’t be disappointed!

Preluna was a great stay. The staff was amazing attending to all our needs and we were quite needy with requiring transportation to and from the airport, celebrating an 80th birthday complete with room decorations we brought and taking care of my moms wheelchair needs. Thank you, Preluna! View was great too!!

Last minute 4 day trip booked. We had a twin room with air con & sea view at front of hotel. Extensive selection at breakfast including freshly made omelettes. The beach club is just over the road with a lovely pool, sun loungers, ladder access to the sea & a nice bar & food area. Place was immaculate, Room was serviced every day, shower was great, good towels, room was large with a nice balcony & furniture. Hotel is a great location on the outskirts of Sliema with a bus stop right outside & the bus service is great. The airport bus stops here so it's a 30 second walk from the bus stop. We ate at the attached Japanese restaurant - very nice indeed & you get a discount card from the hotel. Roof terrace bar very nice to hang out in. All in all, we had a fantastic stay - can't fault the hotel.
