This Hotel is falsely marketed as 4Star !!! It may have been in the 90’s but in 2019 it may pass for 2 stars !! Its Old, worn out and from a another time era!!! Although the prices to stay are very much 2019. Come on whoever owns this place , Sliema has moved on to another level , Catch up and get the place redesigned and remodelled , it is in an Excellent Location so make it Better.

Comfortable beds, clean rooms and spaceous. Only issue was very uneven floor in dining room due to raised ceramic floor tiles which we joked was due to an earthquake. No idea what it was but it was a hazard and, I think, recent.
