the location and the facilities without the perfect smiley supportive helpful staff is nothing .. the staff were great supportive from welcoming to say bye bye souvenir.
Comfortable, well-run hotel. Helpful staff, especially the concierge and reception staff.
The balconies are stylish but not much use for sitting out - better to opt for a bigger room.
The menus are unchanging apart from the "specials".
Excellent location to enjoy Valletta. The hotel grounds are amazing. The restaurants were very good. The rooms are clean and the staff is very helpful.
Truly excellent hotel in every way possible - service, accommodation, food and drink, general amenities. Really enjoyed our stay and hope to return in future.
A fantastic hotel and the staff was extremely helpful and nice. I highly recommend this hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Amazing spread with multiple different types of fresh breads, fresh fruit, cold cuts and full English breakfast. The look was amazing and everything g tasted great as well. One if the best we have seen at any of the Leading Hitejs of the World.
All the facilities we tried - the pool, breakfast, were great. The staff were great although, on occasions, a little difficult to understand. But this didn't detract from our visit.
The only two small reservations we had were:
- the size of the Executive room - Room 227 - which was a little small for moving around. However, your very helpful Neville showed us some alternative Executive Rooms that are larger and we will aim to have one of these on our next stay.
- the evening menu in the restaurant appeared to us to be a little unimaginative.
Otherwise a lovely though short stay on this occasion:o)
