I would certainly be happy to stay here again. Large rooms, comfy bed, helpful staff and food was excellent. The only thing that let my stay down was the length of time it took to check out - a long queue with two few staff and a long process, my taxi arrived and almost left it took that long. ##### Andrew Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia Jan 1, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hotel is definitely a great choice. Breakfast buffet is fantastic, including a variety of dishes, fresh, tasty and good quality. Staff at front desk were very friendly and helpful. The amenities and the views are awesome.

A little bit tired in places but it has a good feeling to it. It reminds me of a cruise liner. The Reception staff are efficient but lack warmth, and the food and beverage staff are mostly chaotic, but if you brace yourself for it and allow for extra time and mistakes, you get there in the end - some more experienced staff at breakfast save the day. The whole food offering could do with an overhaul - it’s neither exciting nor extensive. However, for all that, the hotel has a charm about it, a location, a setting and poolside that is fabulous, so it makes it my hotel of choice in Valletta. ##### Mark Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mariela Sep 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Conveniently located walkable to historic buildings, shopping and close to various dining options. ##### Mariela Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Stunning Apt Sea Views in Tigne Point, With Pool](https://www.expedia.ca/Sliema-Hotels-Stunning-Apt-Sea-Views-In-Tigne-Point.h35625143.Hotel-Information) > > [De Rohan B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Zebbug-Hotels-De-Rohan-BB.h15393692.Hotel-Information) > > [Ursula Suites- Self Catering Apartments- Valletta- by Tritoni Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Valletta-Hotels-Ursula-Suites.h89277212.Hotel-Information) > > [Hostel Malti](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Julians-Hotels-Hostel-Malti.h5081270.Hotel-Information) > > [San Karlu Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Valletta-Hotels-San-Karlu-Hotel.h107073143.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Spa Resort – Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Mellieha-Hotels-LABRANDA-Riviera-Hotel-Spa.h986091.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near University of Saskatchewan](https://www.expedia.ca/University-Of-Saskatchewan-Hotels.0-l6072371-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sally Port Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Valletta-Hotels-Sally-Port-Suites.h37817739.Hotel-Information) > > [Palais Le Brun](https://www.expedia.ca/Valletta-Hotels-Palais-Le-Brun.h23544475.Hotel-Information) > > [Ta'patee Pool Farmhouse in Gozo](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Lawrenz-Hotels-Tapatee-Pool-Farmhouse-In-Gozo.h101153692.Hotel-Information) > > [Quaint Boutique Hotel Nadur](https://www.expedia.ca/Nadur-Hotels-Quaint-Boutique-Hotel-Nadur.h11117319.Hotel-Information) > > [U Collection Suites & Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Valletta-Hotels-U-Collection-Suites-Apartments.h19990265.Hotel-Information) > > [BOCO Boutique](https://www.expedia.ca/Cospicua-Hotels-BOCO-Boutique.h36841836.Hotel-Information) > > [Granny's Inn - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Sliema-Hotels-Grannys-Inn-Hostel.h18231314.Hotel-Information) > > [Pebbles Boutique Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Sliema-Hotels-Pebbles-Boutique-Aparthotel.h4724120.Hotel-Information) > > [Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-Royalton-Splash-Riviera-Cancun.h78626183.Hotel-Information) > > [D Golden Valley](https://www.expedia.ca/Xaghra-Hotels-D-Golden-Valley.h28944526.Hotel-Information) > > [1926 Le Soleil Hotel & SPA](https://www.expedia.ca/Sliema-Hotels-1926-Hotel-SPA.h21308320.Hotel-Information) > > [Hacienda Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Sliema-Hotels-Hacienda-Apartments.h21412896.Hotel-Information) > > [115 The Strand Hotel by NEU Collective](https://www.expedia.ca/Gzira-Hotels-115-The-Strand-Hotel-By-NEU-Collective.h1641882.Hotel-Information) > > [The Embassy Valletta Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Valletta-Hotels-The-Embassy-Valletta-Hotel.h36163882.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Hotels in Winnipeg](https://www.expedia.ca/Winnipeg-Hotels-Luxury-Hotel.0-0-d6141041-tLuxuryHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Cars > [Budget Car Rentals In Phoenix](https://www.expedia.ca/Budget-Car-Rentals-In-Phoenix.d178298-c39.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Packages > [Banff Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Banff.d10550.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [St. Petersburg Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Petersburg.d180029.Destination-Travel-Guides)
