all reviews

Lovely, impressive building, everything we needed. We had a 1 year old child and the staff were very helpful. They also provided a clean, large decent cot at no extra charge.Nice large room (triple). A large balcony opposite the room for just sitting quietly to read a book. Nice gardens to sit in.Friendly staff, pleasant atmosphere, good situation. so historic nice pool very cool building. Nice older hotel at a good price. If you are looking for an "british imperial" hotel feeling with high ceilings and antiques, this is quite nice. It's also a little off the beaten path but close to everything you need in sliema. Quiet.some damaged tiles in bathroom, some refurbishment required. We couldn't check in before designated time and had to wait around, dififcult with a young child.I did not think the food was quite up to scratch. The breakfast was very mundane mostly bread, cold meats etc. Paying extra for cooked breakfasts and yoghurt. The vegetables were mostly frozen and soggy. Nearest restaurants are a fair walk away.ground floor room could have done with an insect screen - we had to move higher up because of mosquitoes! but that was no problem. no internet available needs some redecoration - looks like the 50's. If you are looking for a modern hotel recently updated, this is probably not it. Everything was functional including air-conditioning, and the pool looked nice (thought we never went in it as we were busy with other things to do in malta).
