Need to get the basics right!

I would not consider this a 4 Star hotel as described. Although the front desk service was generally good, except for one occasion, and the beach club and pool were good, the quality and cleanliness of the rooms was not really good enough. We had booked a Superior room, but this was equivalent to a 3 Star Premier Inn in the UK. In addition we had to be moved twice due to noise from the reception area and noise from the collection of laundry outside our bedroom window very early in the morning (05:30). One of the rooms had nails protruding from the architrave and the fridge did not work and had to be replaced, and in another the drainage channel to the shower had collapsed. The cleaning of the rooms was also not great, with marks on doors when we arrived not being cleaned for the whole of the stay in each room. In addition cups were left unwashed on a couple of occasions and complementary water and tea not topped up on a couple of occasions.

Warm Welcome, Great Location, and Thoughtful Touch

From the moment we booked, the hotel was in touch, making sure they had everything they needed for our stay. Check-in was smooth and quick, and the staff were welcoming from the first hello. I had asked for a birthday surprise for my niece, and they made it happen perfectly — even tailoring it to meet our halal requirements. It’s those little touches that really make a difference. The staff here are brilliant — friendly, helpful, and genuinely happy to help. I’d definitely recommend using the hotel’s taxi service instead of Bolt or Uber. The cars are clean, spacious, and really comfortable. Our airport pickup driver, Omar, was polite and professional, making our arrival stress-free. There was a small hiccup with our return transfer booking (caused by the hotel, not the taxi company), but Lucienne from the hotel sorted everything out. She suggested a better pick-up time, which meant I got an extra hour of sleep, and she got us to the airport in great time. She honestly saved the day. The location is spot-on — walking distance to shops, restaurants, and the waterfront, with easy access to explore more of Malta. Our room was modern, big, and spotless, with everything we needed to be comfortable. We felt looked after from start to finish, and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again next time I’m in Malta.

We really enjoyed our stay for 6 nights at this hotel. Staff were so friendly and always willing to help with a smile. Spa facilities were great- we used them almost everyday after a busy day out it was really relaxing to use the sauna and the jacuzzi. The beach club was convenient as it was just a walking distance away. I would highly recommend this hotel with no hesitation. Five star service all the time. Thank you all staff at the hotel!

The hotel was in a good location with free access to a beach club and the room was kept extremely clean, thanks to staff Azam! Unfortunately the pool is accessed via a booking system and during our 3 days there was no availability, we went up to the pool to check and the sun-beds were empty yet we were still told they were fully booked. This ruined my birthday as one of the reasons we booked this hotel was because it had a pool.

Can not rate this hotel enough! The staff, food, facilities, location. Perfection. The only minor negative is a bit of construction going on across the road, but that seems to be the normal all throughout Malta at the moment. They go above and beyond to ensure you have a fantastic stay. Will be back

I have never given a 1 star review but this place deserved it — I’m not even sure where to start. The noise: construction all hours of the day. The view from room is a construction site 10 feet away, terrible view and the loud banging in the morning is incredibly frustrating and makes it very hard to sleep. Room: The bed was hard as a rock. Everything is done through an app, including unlocking and locking your room. We were locked IN our room for over 30 minutes on our first morning. It was extremely unsafe. Amenities: They have a rooftop pool that was booked up everyday of our 5-day stay. However when we went to look at it, it was a TINY pool with a view of construction and cranes. The pool club was nice, but it was a bit further of a walk than advertised due to the construction. All of the pictures on the site are of the pool club, not of the hotel, so it’s VERY misleading. Nor is the construction noted. We were so excited for this hotel (even had family come to stay and book rooms) but when we arrived, our jaws dropped. Definitely recommend looking up other hotels.

The hotel is fantastic, modern, clean with great facilities. The breakfast buffet was also good with plenty of options and the food was good quality. The staff were all friendly, polite and always happy to help. The hotel even puts on complimentary excursions, we went on two. The first was a walking food tour around Sliema, it was great to see the side streets away from the busy tourist strips and try some local food. The second was a vintage bus tour. I didn’t really know what to expect, but it far surpassed any expectations. The trip was around 4 hours and we saw parts of Malta that we otherwise would not have seen. I highly recommend anyone staying at the hotel to do this excursion. Unfortunately there are building work everywhere in Sliema, including right next to the hotel. This makes it difficult to totally relax when using the rooftop pool due to the noise. I cannot fault anything inside the hotel. Unfortunately the building work is unavoidable and outside of the hotel’s control. Had there of not been the building work, it would have been a perfect holiday.

Liked: Amenities
What We Liked: * The spa was excellent – relaxing and well-maintained. * Enjoyed the Molton Brown toiletries – a lovely touch. * The sushi was fresh and delicious. * The staff working at the rooftop pool was particularly welcoming. * The bus tour was a highlight – well-organized and a great way to explore. * The bar was pleasant, though not extraordinary. * The luggage staff were nice Areas for Improvement: * Dinner reservation communication was unclear, and we didn’t receive confirmation despite requesting it and had to ask again - then told we were on a waiting list - which is fine but the lack of communication was not great * The complimentary wine was a nice touch, but when we politely asked to switch from red to white, the response felt rude and unnecessarily judgmental. A simple "no" would have sufficed. * Our shower flooded on every use which made the bathroom uncomfortable. * The reservation system seemed disjointed – cancellations via chat weren’t properly relayed to the pool team. * The beach club felt run-down, and staff at the sunbed area were not welcoming * The issue with credit not being pre-authorized and they held it saying itd be a holding charge but then they took the full payment out - we tried to resolve on checkout and was met with a condescending tone and minimal apology. There is also not enough explanation on why i was charged.
