This is not a 5 star hotel. The room decor is tired, bar sofas stained so you don’t want to sit on them, poorly trained bar staff. Huge groups meaning waits to check in/out. Pool closed with no explanation. Some staff are keen and willing but the hotel needs serious investment to recover 5 star rating. They say renovations are coming but when? It’s convenient but there are other choices in Valletta.

Overall it is a big , beautiful hotel -- even with a little beach and access to the sea . Tha location is not the best... an uphill [ very makeable ] walk to the main street .. and a shuttle if you would rather ride . If you want to go out at night I'd definitely get transportation. Breakfast was lovely , [ coffee was not ] - but in the evening for dinner you only have the choice of sitting in the bar with low tables , or eating in the dining room with a 38 Euro buffet .

The stay was very good. We were informed at reception that we had to make a deposit of 150 euros nop card and in 2 days after check out the money would return to the account, however the money did not return to my account. We sent email and message through the official website and we have not had any kind of response so far. A bad pos service I am extremely disappointed.

Just left after staying here for a few days. We had a couple of minor issues however the way Janet and the staff dealt with it was excellent. Their was a convention held in the hotel and it was packed but the staff were always polite, courteous and efficient. The breakfast was very good also. Will definitely return.

Great location and nice view of the harbour from our superior sea view room. The outdoor pool area is nice and you can swim in the sea too, which was lovely (warmer than the pool). We didn’t eat here (there are wonderful cafes for breakfast lunch and dinner within easy walking distance) so can’t comment on the food. But we did use the bar twice, once for Kir Royales, which cost 48 euros for two (make sure you ask for Prosecco!). And we dropped in for a glass of wine after dinner, which was served to us in small bottles (like airplane wine) and was undrinkable. Staff were very quick to clear our glasses too, which felt a bit like they wanted us out. Room was a bit tired and the mattress sank in the middle. Otherwise great! Just needs a bit of modernisation and some of the bar staff need training. There are also a lot of events held here, so expect large crowds of people wearing lanyards from time to time.
