Dining
Start your morning with a varied breakfast buffet that prepares you for a day of exploring the island. For those staying on a half board basis, you can enjoy evening meals featuring a mix of local Maltese flavours and international favourites. The surrounding area is a foodie’s paradise, but you won’t have to go far to experience sensory dining; the nearby sister restaurants offer the chance to dine just steps from the refreshing sea breeze while watching the traditional luzzu boats bob in the water. Meal times are indicative and may be subject to change depending on the season.
Pools and Spa
The highlight of your stay will likely be the rooftop swimming pool, which offers panoramic views across the Marsamxett Harbour (open seasonally). It is a fantastic spot to soak up the sun while watching the cruise ships pass by. If you prefer to stay active or unwind indoors, there is a fitness room and an indoor pool available. For a deeper level of relaxation, visit the on-site wellness centre; please note that the use of the spa centre, including massages, beauty treatments, and the sauna, is subject to additional charges.
Beach
While the hotel is located on the urban waterfront, you are within walking distance of the rocky shoreline that Sliema is famous for. Approx. a 15-minute walk will take you to the popular lido areas and rock beaches where the locals love to swim in the crystal-clear deep blue water. As these are public areas, any sun loungers or umbrellas provided by local beach clubs are at an extra charge.
Sport and Entertainment
If you like to keep moving, the hotel’s gym is equipped for a quick morning workout before the heat of the day sets in. As evening falls, the promenade comes alive with a chic setting for tranquil relaxation. You can enjoy sunset walks along the water’s edge or explore the nearby bars and cafes that offer a friendly, conversational atmosphere until late in the evening.
Family Amenities
Families are well-catered for with spacious room options that allow everyone to stay together comfortably. The rooftop pool includes a shallower section where children can splash around under your supervision, and the proximity to the waterfront means you are never far from a quick snack or a gelateria to keep the little ones happy.
