"A great location, superb views. The electronic door lock was a challenge but great support from Zzzing helped us out. The apartment is 67 steps up but there is an elevator ( a bit rickity) but it all added to the fun. We would stay again."

"It was a long day of traveling and I was initially bummed that there wasn't a window in the apartment and I couldn't find the hairdryer and there wasn't shampoo.... LOL , it felt tragic, AND after a few deep breaths, I regained my composure and really enjoyed this apartment. The cave-like bedroom is actually a lot like mine, which is great for sleep. As for the window, this is an OLD city and it is just how it is and it's fine! You are out exploring all day and when you get 'home' you are...

Waterfront

Waterfront

10/10 Excellent
"The Waterfront is a no-frills mid-range hotel located on the Sliema waterfront, a short walk to the ferries and in the heart of the restaurant and bar district. The hotel is very well-maintained with gracious and helpful staff. The buffet breakfast in the Regatta Room is highly recommended with its lavish array of hot and cold selections. The 1Olive rooftop restaurant is a fun open-air setting but its themed buffet offerings are a big disappointment - I can't recommend dinner there.. By contrast the Cielo rooftop bar on the other tower is highly recommended for drinks and snacks, and sports a beautiful view of the cityscape. The guest rooms are clean and well-maintained but don't expect luxury accommodations as they are geared toward value-conscious travelers who value function and basic comfort versus frippery. There is a small, rather disappointing indoor private pool onsite but guests are also given free access to the Aqualuna outdoor pool resort across the street, which is a bit of a mob-scene and a tad down-market. When we stayed in early July 2026 most of the clientele were middle-class UK couples and groups in their 50s or 60s, so adjust accordingly to your own demographics. Overall we were very pleased with our stay and highly recommend this hotel."
