I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The views were amazing, the service was top-notch, but the rooms facing the crowded staircase were a bit of a letdown. The location was perfect, right in the city center close to all attractions. The dining experience was exquisite with a view to die for. The facilities were great, and overall, it was definitely worth the money.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms offered a comfortable bed and a wonderful view of the harbour, but mine faced a crowded staircase which was a downside. The service varied from unfriendly receptionists to helpful maids. The location was excellent, right on the harbour, but it was a bit noisy due to the constant flow of people on the bustling staircase. The dining experience was lovely with a view to die for, but the quality could be better in some dishes. The facilities were adequate, providing all the necessary amenities.

I was thrilled with my stay at the hotel! The location is unbeatable, right by the harbour with easy access to city attractions and restaurants. The rooms were cozy, especially with the Maltese balconies offering a charming touch. The service was top-notch, from the helpful maids to the efficient room service. However, the unfriendly receptionist was a letdown. Dining with a view of the harbour was a highlight, but the tapas selection could be improved. The facilities were great, and the terrace was a perfect spot to unwind.

The hotel offers a stunning view of the harbor and boasts a good shower in the rooms. However, the windows face a crowded staircase, and the room with 4 beds might feel a bit cramped. The price is reasonable for what you get.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms had a mix of beautiful views, some with a Harbour view, though a few lacked a sea view. The service was inconsistent from top management to the maids, with some areas excelling and others lacking. The location was convenient, situated close to major city attractions, although parking proved to be a challenge. The dining experience offered a great view and delicious freshly made pancakes. The facilities were sufficient, catering to basic needs but nothing extraordinary.
