The location was perfect.Breakfast was good except the bacon was a little bit krispy.
MaltaThe hotel has an amazing location, just outside the city of Valletta. Everything is in walking distance. The rooms are very comfortable and cozy. The gym is well-equipped. Room service in the evening was fantastic and the hotel bar is very nice to just sit in and relax a bit. Despite the pandemic, staff was helpful and friendly from beginning to the end.

United KingdomWe have had pleasure to stay at this wonderful hotel several times and never been disappointed. It is a fantastic hotel With excellent staff And location, we really enjoyed our stay and looking forward to returning ASAP.
United KingdomThe Hotel is super close to the city centre of valletta, so the perfect location to explore the city. The rooms are a bit old-fashioned but you can find everything you need and our room also had a nice balcony where we could watch the sunset and some parts of Valletta and the sea. The staff is super friendly, only during breakfast some staff members seemed a bit overwhelmed. But overall everyone was super friendly & nice. Breakfast was ok, based on the covid19 restrictions, only the scrambled eggs were inedible. The pool is great, super clean and you also have the possibility to take a quick bath in the sea
GermanyFantastic shower. Superb outdoor pool. Excellent breakfast.
United KingdomIts location, private beach, cleanliness, breakfast and it is quiet , on my birthday they left wine and a piece of cake with a birthday card.. it was a nice surprise😊
