Despite checking three times that the hotel was aware of my request for vegan options, I only had cucumber, sweetcorn, tomatoes, lettuce and whole fruit available to me. They seemed reluctant to provide any vegan bread and took persuading to provide vegan milk. This aside, staff were extremely friendly from the outset, the room was very pleasant but sandwiched two single beds to form an awkward double the was pressed against the full length mirror, preventing its full use. We appreciated the bottles of free water restocked each time the room was cleaned. Overall, we would really recommend this hotel - it's on walking distance to shops, shopping malls, transport links in abundance, short walk to St Julian's and plenty of amazing restaurants in Sliema and surrounding areas. All of these amenities are within 5-30 min walks and so close to the harbour that you can see it from the hotel entrance just a very short 5 mins walk away. A great location off the main road and, therefore, very quiet. We felt extremely safe walking about at night in the area. Lidl only a 10min walk away. The hotel is very modern and pleasant inside.

Great value and super friendly

A lovely place to stay. Arrived late but the instructions about out-of-hours access to the room were both accurate and easy to follow. The newly refurbished room was extremely clean and comfortable, although generally the sound-proofing was inadequate - no problem for me but potentially troublesome for sober guests or those sensitive to church bells, chirpy European visitors and even chirpier construction workers. Breakfast was pleasant but a smidgeon over-priced; meanwhile the location was handy as well as conveniently serviced by local Bolt and Uber drivers. All the staff were super friendly - which seems to be a genetic trait of most if not all Maltese people. Overall, terrific value for money and highly recommended by this reviewer!

Overall a nice hotel but was noisy as could hear doors slamming alot and cleaners talking in the hallway early in the mornings. Be aware of using the wi fi as my email was hacked and the only wifi i used was at the hotel. Could be a coincidence but be careful.

Come Italiani devo dire che forse abbiamo degli standard un po' più altini. Si presenta come un "hotel" ma di hotel non ha nulla, non c'è un frigobar in camera, abbiamo alloggiato per 5 giorni e 4 notti e la camera non è stata rifatta una sola volta, pulizia molto basica. Finestra inulite perché affacciava letteralmente in un buco, siamo stati H24 con l'aria condizionata a palla. Il penultimo giorno, come gli altri, non ci era stato fatto nemmeno il letto e mancavano delle asciugamani, l'abbiamo riferito in reception che prontamente ci ha fornito le asciugamani ma per la mancanza di pulizia e servizio alla camera non ha fatto nemmeno un cenno. Purtroppo devo dire, ottima zona,sliema e stupenda e l'hotel è a 2 passi dal lungomare, ma se dovessi ritornare non andrei più in questa struttura. Una nota positiva I receptionist. Tutti carini, super disponibili e cordiali.
