    Here’s why it’s a mixed review

    Great location near restaurants with friendly staff who ensure a well-kept breakfast buffet daily.

    Noisy environment due to the nearby busy road and outdated room decor that detracts from comfort.

    The rich breakfast buffet, featuring local specialties, was a delightful way to start each day. I particularly enjoyed the complimentary welcome drinks, which introduced us to the local flavors immediately.

    local atmosphere
    hazard balcony
    noisy roadworks

    Friendly local atmosphere enhances the stay.

    I was given a side room instead of a promised sea view, and the balcony was a hazard as it wasn't secured properly. The noisy roadworks below made for a frustrating stay, and the cold pool was a huge disappointment. the pool bar was closed despite being advertised as available. overall, this didn’t align with my expectations.

    stunning rooftop views
    breakfast temperature issues

    The rooftop pool provided stunning vistas, and the responsive staff were incredibly helpful. Conveniently located near restaurants and public transport options made exploring easy.

    The breakfast buffet was lukewarm due to insufficient heat retention in the Bain marie.

    breakfast spread
    dining options
    slow lifts

    We really enjoyed our stay here, but the dining options were pretty disappointing, and the lifts took ages. On the upside, the breakfast spread was pretty awesome!

    convenient location

    This was just a great fit for a mini-vacation in Sliema with all in all brilliant value for money. The staff helped us order a taxi to the airport, which was really convenient. Be sure to ask for pack meals if you have an early flight.

    attentive manager
    outdated decor

    Satisfying stay despite minor flaws

    The manager’s attentiveness was outstanding, making my family feel valued. The nightly complimentary treats were a lovely surprise that enhanced our experience during the Easter holiday!

    The air conditioning in our room struggled during the hot nights, which made sleeping a challenge. The outdated decor was also noticeable and could use a refresh.
