The hotel is in a great location, close to ferries, although the rooms are a bit small and dark. The service was friendly and professional, but some staff seemed grumpy.

The hotel had some positive and negative aspects. The location was perfect, close to the Sliema-Valetta ferry and surrounded by shops and restaurants, but the dining experience was disappointing.

If you're thinking about booking a room with a harbor view for an extended stay, you might want to reconsider as they seemed quite small and dark, with no 32-inch TV as advertised. On a positive note, the service was exceptional, with a kind gesture of a free upgrade to a sea view room. The location is top-notch, right by the ferry terminal to Valetta and surrounded by restaurants and shops. The dining experience offered great views from the top floor restaurant and tasty options, including homemade soups.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were compact but a delight, offering a panoramic view across Sliema creek towards Valletta. However, the size and views did not match the pictures, with some rooms being extremely small or facing less desirable sights. The service was absolutely brilliant, particularly from Florri, who was very friendly, polite, and accommodating. The location was great for a first-time visitor to Malta, with easy access to tours, boats, buses, and the Valletta ferry, although some noise issues were noted on the 8th floor in the mornings. The dining experience varied from the worst breakfast ever had to satisfying standard meals. Overall, the hotel had its ups and downs.

I couldn't get enough of the stunning sea views from my upgraded superior sea view room at Marina Sliema Hotel morning, noon, and night. The service was top-notch with super friendly and helpful staff offering compensation without hesitation. The location was ideal, just in front of the ferry to Valetta and other locations, although the surrounding area felt a bit seedy. The dining experience stood out with a delightful spread and breathtaking panoramic views of Valletta over the water. Despite some drawbacks, I had a fantastic stay overall.
