“Mum Birthday Treat”

This hotel is located very centrally in St Julian opposite Bay Street shopping mall. It's located 5 minutes from the beach, next door to InterContinental Hotels which you could use some of it's facilities. The staff are all very welcoming and helpful. The room is clean and tidy while the small balcony offers a view to the sea. The bed is comfortable while everything in the room feels just right but the bathroom needs a little improvement with the showering facilities as water tends to go everywhere afterwards. Breakfast is OK. There's lots of shops, restaurants and bars in the surrounding area of the hotel.

“Can't fault the hotel”

I can't fault the hotel itself. Room was clean and recently renovated. Breakfast was ok. Staff were helpful. Access to the pool in the intercontinental hotel next door (internal link) and a superb private gym. While the local is good for exploring the area and island, be aware that it gets rowdy and loud at night due to all the pubs and clubs in the alley next to the hotel.
