Very modern hotel with great amenities. The sea view room was amazing, had a huge terrace. Great bed. The pool is beautiful, and we had dinner at one of the restaurants on premises, also breakfast was great, tons of options for 30 EUR. One small detail - the light switches are a bit confusing, some are on a timer and turned off a few times while i was in the bathroom. There probably is a system to it but we only stayed for 2 nights and didn’t have time to look deep into it. Location of the hotel is great - 5 minutes to the Sliema ferry, and incredible views of the harbor and Valletta. Highly recommend this hotel.

The hotel itself and staff were faultless, it really is an excellent hotel to stay in when visiting Sliema. My only reason for not giving 5 star across the board is the use of the pool, it wasn’t made clear that it was not for sole use of hotel guests and is actually part of a beach club called Manta. Being restricted to how long we could have a sun lounger for was a bit disappointing and once allocated a sun lounger all hotel guests were placed in a far corner away from the pool and in my opinion not treated the same as those who had paid to use the club.

Great hotel, definitely 5 stars. The view to Valletta from the ocean view room is amazing, makes a big difference. Clean, spacious bathroom, great selection at the buffet breakfast. Very friendly staff at the front desk. Pool a bit small, but if you booking morning hours, you will be able to find great sunbeds. Too busy in the afternoon. Great location. You can easily get to Valletta by ferry or local boatmen. Definitely will recommend this place.
