We stayed in a sea view suite, plenty of space and fantastic views of the Grand Harbour entrance. The shower was excellent and the room cleaning was done to a great standard. Breakfast was well organised with plenty of choices of food. The bar area was always popular in the evening and live entertainment was available on some evenings. The spa was a great bonus although the steam room and jacuzzi were not as warm as I would have liked. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others.

The staff at the Preluna were excellent, especially Aslam at the front desk. Luckily I saw him on the sidewalk as I was limping to the hotel as I had sprained my ankle and he ran to get me a wheelchair and made sure I had ice. The hotel was incredibly clean. Was noisy during the day with renovations setting off the alarm in my room three times but that won’t last.

The hotel is right on the water in a beautiful area with a long boardwalk close to shops and restaurants. The breakfast was wonderful with outdoor balcony overlooking the ocean. The hotel provides access to the gym, pool, hot tub abd sauna in the adjacent facility. There were renovations going on inside and some noisy construction next door. The staff were very helpful and friendly.

The staff members were great from the young men who took care of my room on a daily basis, to the staff at Reception, to the waiters in the bars and restaurants. The waiters in the Triton Restaurant, where I had two meals each day, went above and beyhond the call of duty. The hotel has good amenities. I wish I'd been there in the warmer season to take advantage of the outdoor pool which is built into the rocks right on the Mediterranean.
