4 star hotel in Sliema, Malta. Quiet area. Lovely air conditioned, big room with balcony. Roof to pool. Sister hotel to the 5 star Palace Hotel which was accessible via a passageway on first floor. 10 minutes walk to sea front and ferry to Valletta. 15 mins walk to the bustling St. Julian's and The Point Shopping Mall. Lovely variety of breakfast - hot and cold food. Would definitely come back to this hotel.

Be very specific !!

I booked a double bed and balcony. I got 2 single beds butted together (when queried was told no double beds, it's how most hotels do it now!) and balcony looked into alley and never got the sun (when queried was told can't control sun ....no, but you can state on website - balcony but does not get the sun!!) pool lovely view. Most staff very nice and professional. Wee bit of a hill to reach from promenade.
