Loved by Waterfront Hotel guests
"The deluxe room was amazing - incredibly spacious and with spectacular views towards the bay, marina and Valletta."
"Hotel also included free access to the Aqua Luna pool (directly opposite the Hotel), this would normally cost €30 per person."
"For me, the best thing about this hotel was the view: sitting outside on the balcony looking over the water to Valletta."

Wellness: Dee Spas offering tailored treatments
“The Waterfront Hotel strikes me as a well-positioned choice in Sliema, particularly appealing for its prime location along the promenade, offering expansive views of Valletta. I noticed the hotel places emphasis on both family-friendly accommodations and wellness amenities like the Dee Spas, making it a versatile option for different types of travelers. Overall, from what I gather, it seems like a solid base for exploring the cultural richness of Malta.”

gluten free toasterverdant courtyard
I stayed in a room. it had a balcony looking over a verdant courtyard. breakfasts were excellent. My friend is coeliac and it's the only place she's ever stayed with a toaster solely for gluten free use. i have type 1 diabetes. it's the only hotel where there's been provision of jam & marmalade suitable for me.

The rooftop bar had great waterfront views.
The breakfasts disappointed me. I saw tinned fruit being served. The breakfast area felt small with many people creating a hectic atmosphere. The bacon was not good. It is typical for such places.
