Lovely helpful staff. The breakfast was possibly the best we have had with a huge choice. Parking was easy and the spaces accessible. The situation was good as it was on the seafront but at the end so far enough away to be quiet. We would difinately recommend it.

Beautiful stay. The hotel was spotless and staff were lovely. We booked a sea view room very pretty views over Valletta. The pool was lovely however not attached to the hotel which I wasn’t aware of before we got there (I may not have noticed) again lovely views of Valletta over the water. Very close walk into silema. We stayed room only and had breakfast and lunch at the pool. Very nice.

We only stayed for one night. The outdoor pool was lovely with a great atmosphere- upbeat dance music vibes. Sun bed reservations required but as we had just arrived mid afternoon there were some free so we were lucky. Food was excellent stayed half board, evening meal was possibly the best pre food we have ever had, breakfast was also fabulous with so much choice. Room perfect with a great balcony (although pretty small) looking over to Valletta.

The hotel itself was very clean and the Gym is incredible, a fully hammer strength equipped gym. First time I’ve been satisfied with a hotel gym and I have travelled most of the world. The main reason for us giving this a low score, is the mafia methods they use for the sunbeds. As a hotel guest, you are to pre-book a time slot one day in advance. Either you book morning 09:00 to 14:00 or afternoon which is 14:00 to 18:00. If you however do nok take morning slots and go down there to secure a bed, you will only be able to get a unfair spot near the door or trash cans / in a corner with no view or sun because the morning people has no intention in leaving at 14:00 and the hotel only checked Once in ten days.. and not to mention that the hotel is already down prioritized as the sunbeds is owned by the beach club “manta” which means they take all the good spots for their own paying customers and the hotel guests are fighting for the leftovers.
