Great location in Sliema. Bus stop directly across the road which takes you directly to Malta International Airport. All staff were friendly and elpful. Wide range of options for breakfast and dinner. The chef made a great omellette during breakfast which was clear to see by how popular it was with the guests. The sea view room provided a great view of the beach.

We are so happy with our stay at the Preluna. Everything was great! Our room was lovely. The rooftop was amazing, and the hotel’s location was perfect—just a 2-minute walk to the beach, pool, and restaurants. The staff were so kind and helpful. The spa and gym were both excellent. I highly recommend booking a massage at the spa. Book the Preluna, and you won’t be disappointed!

Preluna was a great stay.

Last minute 4 day trip booked. We had a twin room with air con & sea view at front of hotel. Extensive selection at breakfast including freshly made omelettes. The beach club is just over the road with a lovely pool, sun loungers, ladder access to the sea & a nice bar & food area. Place was immaculate, Room was serviced every day, shower was great, good towels, room was large with a nice balcony & furniture. Hotel is a great location on the outskirts of Sliema with a bus stop right outside & the bus service is great. The airport bus stops here so it's a 30 second walk from the bus stop. We ate at the attached Japanese restaurant - very nice indeed & you get a discount card from the hotel. Roof terrace bar very nice to hang out in. All in all, we had a fantastic stay - can't fault the hotel.
