A Clean and Convenient Stay

amazing roomhelpful receptionistsplain decoration
The room was amazing, and it was very clean (a real plus for me). The receptionists were helpful and the bar and restaurant staff were great. The hotel provides a free shuttle to Valletta. It made getting around very easy.
The room could use some decoration because it felt plain. It didn't really give off a resort feel. I think some small touches would make a big difference.
Dining

Breakfast had many choices (especially the pastries!) and could easily satisfy everyone. We also tried the fried cheese starter at Tribistro, and it was delicious. Breakfast in bed was a treat.

the hotel location wasn't great. you need a car or taxi to go everywhere i think. the room didn't have free water and i had to pay for it that was bad thing.

A Mixed Experience

variety of choicesclosed streets
The breakfast had a lot of choices. It was easy to find something satisfying (especially if you like eggs).
The location proved difficult. Uber drivers struggled to find the place because of permanently closed streets. This added unnecessary stress to getting around the island.
