Have stayed many times over the years. Friendly Staff Excellent Breakfast Very Clean Standard Room Great Value For Money. Only problem for myself this time was that the corridors to your rooms are very noisy due to tiled floors and not enough soft furnishings to dampen down the sound. Also the music around the pool area (Top Deck) is awful it needs to be addressed.

I stayed here for almost a week and it was alright. I would’ve really appreciated being made aware that there were renovations/work going on, constantly. These started as early as 7:30. The fire alarm even went off once. That should be something you tell residents before or during their check in. Or as there were lots of those renovations going on right outside our door (2312) maybe close the whole floor so residents aren’t disturbed. The lift situation was quite confusing at the beginning we had to take a life down then walk quite a while then get another lift up, it wasn’t straightforward. The cleaners would also reuse bedding and towels but just re fold them as if they were new/re make the bed but flip the covers. Overall the room was nice. Our view wasn’t the best, the food was great and the staff were really nice

Holiday stay
A couple of issues, parking was not available at hotel despite being advised and emailing to book due to building work. This was inconvenient as on street parking 400m away. They did offer use of alternative hotel parking but this was also over 5 minutes away. Room booked was a double but was simply 2 singles pushed together with separate bedding so not comfortable as a couple.

Clean and spacious room
Lovely hotel. I stayed in a superior room, it was lovely, clean and spacious. My only criticism is there were no toiletries. Breakfast was good. Staff were amazing, nothing was to much for them. Being a non meat eater, I couldn't eat what was laid out for breakfast; they were happy to cook me an alternative. The pool area is small but nice. Very clean with lovely views.

Hotel seems to be fresh and newly built. Some construction work going outside in the rear side. Several restaurants are around. Good place for a quick visit to Ghadira bay and other beaches. Calm area compared to busier St Julians. Breakfast was quite standard as any other hotel. They could bring more varieties like Idly or Dosa.
