Many guests appreciate the hotel's convenient location, within a short walk to shops, restaurants, and the ferry to Valletta; however, some have noted that the outdoor pool arrangements are not ideal.

poor spot loud music
The breakfast buffet offered a wide selection.
The pool situation was unacceptable. It is managed separately from the hotel. Hotel guests found themselves relegated to less desirable spots by the pool. Loud music further detracted from relaxation.

a pretty good experience

great staff convenient location pool situation noisy dj
i had a room overlooking the harbor. it was on the 11th floor. the staff were really great and helpful. the location was also convenient. i found some great restaurants nearby. there was also a shopping mall. i really enjoyed the beach club. it was easy to get to. there was even underground access. i really loved hanging out at the guadalupe boat bar & bistro. it was my favorite spot. i could easily access valetta with the ferry next door. it was very nice after a long day in the heat.
the hotel pool situation was not the best. i reminded me of a third-rate citizen at the pool. i booked a 5-star hotel. i expect to be treated better at the pool. hotel guests can only sit in a lower back area. it was right next to the bins. there were no views. the main pool area is reserved for ibiza club guests. i was not thrilled about it. it was pretty loud from the dj stand in the afternoon. it was hard to relax by the pool.
