Good hotel not for pool

Nice clean hotel located in a quiet residential area in a narrow street. Everything was good at the hotel didn't like the pool area. Very very small pool surrounded by a tall building and high wall that limits direct sunlight you are mostly in shaded area so can sun bath

Nice hotel about 10 minutes walk from centre. Can’t really comment too much as we were there less than 24 hours due to an early flight. We were given a bag with water and snacks as we would miss breakfast. Bed was comfortable and place was nice and clean. Thank you

Great location in Sliema! The hotel is nestled between St. Julian’s Bay and Sliema seafronts. The hotel is located in a quiet, residential neighborhood, about 10-15 minute walk to either seafront location. There are small cafes, local bars, a pharmacy, and a mini market near the hotel. It was easy for excursion meet up points, the buses and to take the ferry. There are tons of restaurants, bars and cafes by the water along the Sliema seafront or St Julien’s Bay. It’s a beautiful, boutique hotel with a very accommodating & friendly staff. If you don’t mind a bit of walking, we would highly recommend it as a lovely & perfect place to stay. The hotel has a great pool, updated rooms, and great amenities…

Good Restored Historic Hotel

Located on a quite back road between Sliema and St Julian's and easy walking distance from each area without the need to use the bus service which takes the longer route via the prom. An old building having been very well restored in keeping with other surrounding buildings. Clean throughout and will consider visiting again when next in Malta.

This is a unique property in an old building which has been restored, in our view there isn't much sound proofing between the rooms as we could hear chairs being moved in neighbouring rooms and people chatting in the corridor and an argument in reception one morning. The person that checked us in was lovely and extremely helpful, but another staff member was unhelpful when I asked for ear plugs, even suggesting that the noises were imaginary. The spiral stairs were also noisy and getting a suit case up them difficult, with the bathroom on the lower level night times were fun. Lighting was mostly with spot lights (plus 2 bedside lamps on the upper level) which were very bright, adding a floor lamp on the lower levelwould be a good idea. Apart from 2 metal chairs on the balcony the only other seating was the sofa bed which wasn't comfortable, given the room was sold as accomodating 4 people a 2 person sofa seems somewhat lacking. The kitchenette was useful but there wasn't really space to store anything we purchased without a lot of moving things around. It did have a decent selection of plates, glasses etc and even a t-towel and washing up liquid. Privacy might be an issue for a family as the glass partition between the living space and bathroom doesn't lock and is only frosted in the middle. The breakfast option is useful with hot and cold choices, there are shops near by and cafes about 10 minutes away as an alternative.

Beautifully appointed hotel

Absolutely beautiful hotel with very friendly, charming helpful staff. Our room was very spacious with axnuce view of the pool (a rarity) in the old quarter. The only comment i would say, is, make sure you wear your walking shoes as the hill up from the bay is quite taxing. Good to walk off dinner & drinks. Special thx to Diago (top guy)

Property is up a hill from Sliema front. We are used to hills but not the 34 degree (feels like 38 degree) heat. But if you don't want to walk there are plenty of taxis and public transport.
