Excellent Service: Definitely A Resort Style
This was my first time staying on the north part of the island. Excellent access to Gozo and Popeye. The room was spacious and breakfast always had a variety of options. The weather wasn't too great while I was there, but there were indoor pools, sauna, and a (tiny) gym. There were always people in the lobby having a drink and sometimes there was live music. The service was also excellent. Kis (at check-in) was wonderful and explained all of the amenities that that hotel & spa had to offer. If I wanted a relaxing weekend, I would definitely consider staying here again.

Friendly and speedy check-in. Clean and comfortable room. Did not use the buffet or restaurant as visiting friends, but plenty of choices for eating both inside hotel and locally. Located in heart of Mellieħa, short walk to bus stops for routes all across the islands.

Lovely stay
Great stay in this hotel, the view from the pool at the 7th floor is beautiful and cocktails are a must over there. Bus stop in front of the hotel and guest services are also very good. Clean rooms and friendly staff. Loved the pizza.

Fantastic stay in Malta!
This place was beautiful. We stayed at 2 different hotels in Malta & this was our favorite. The Italian restaurant downstairs is fantastic & the included breakfast was great. Everything in the hotel is very well kept & clean & working order. The pools were beautiful, the showers had hot water & plenty of pressure. Only 2 very minor things I can say could have improved our stay. I'd switch is that the mattress that was very very firm, with one a little softer, but that is just a preference. Also, there is a shuttle from the beach, but it cost more than an Uber. It would be a nice touch if they just included that in the stay.
