The Solana is a fantastic hotel. The staff were lovely and incredibly helpful - advising us what buses to get and where from (as the regular stops were temporarily closed), as well as advising us of all local discounts. Check in and check out were simple and deficient. The swimming pools on the roof were well maintained and have fantastic views of Mellieha, The breakfast buffet had am excellent choice of food and the service was exemplary. If you are staying in Mellieha and want to stay near the town centre, I would thoroughly recommend the Solana Hotel and Spa

This is the second time I have stayed at the Solana hotel but unfortunately it will be the last. The staff member who checked me in was pleasant but unfortunately a couple who were Infront were struggling to understand what she was saying and there was not much helping them it was almost well it's your fault you can't understand... When my room was ready I made my way and I cannot fault the room was a good size, clean well presented. The shower was good and again happy with that. In the morning I went down for breakfast and it was chaos. One gentleman just accepting everyone to go in find a table that just wasn't available. People were almost falling over eachother just to get a table. After about 10 minutes I gave up as more and more people were wanting tables. It was getting worse. I said to the guy you need to stop people going in to which his reply "you should have arrived earlier". It was 9am when I arrived. This is not full summer time so I hate to see it when it really is full, he just didn't seem to care and finding a member of staff actually working in the restaurant was even harder to find than a table. It wasn't good at all. Upon check out I mentioned these issues to the receptionist as she asked. No sorry, no explanation all she said was "you have to write a review" so here I am. I presume paid for breakfast and believe me it's not about the money or refunds but nothing was offered. There's an hotel down the road The Maritim, it may cost more but 100% go there.

Very nice hotel with great helpful staff!! The hotel is kept clean and the buffet breakfast is fab with plenty of choices so if go make sure you book breakfast included as we saw a couple who was turned away from the restaurant The position is good although there are road woes at the moment so bus stop was temp moved but still well positioned. A few ramp of stairs to get from the main road though so take it easy 😉 We tried Tosca the first night. Food was ok but we found it a bit pricey compared to the rest of Malta. Porthouse steak restaurant next door is amazing Many thanks to the lady who checked us in on the 1st May before dinner who was super lovey and helpful!!

The hotel was lovely, clean, well looked after. The staff were superb and extremely helpful and friendly, they made the stay for me. The restaurants were good, not overly priced. The breakfast was ok, plenty of choice but I would prefer fresh juice and served tea/coffee to the table but that's a personal preference. The spa treatment we had was amazing. Overall we loved the hotel and would go again

Firstly I must say the staff were always helpful and Oliver who worked at The Prickly Pear, lovely, always a smile on his face and made amazing mojitos! The communal areas are very clean and modern, however my room was not exactly up to the same standard. Maybe I’ve just been lucky in other 4 star hotels I’ve stayed in, but normally I would expect shampoo at the very least, but that’s not so bad. However being placed next to the games room, was awful, when people were in there at night it sounded like they were in the room with me, so loud! And the machines don’t get turned off until 11pm. The elevators are extremely near to this room as well and despite it being a fire door to my room and the games room, this was propped open majority of the time. This also meant I could hear guests coming and going at all hours of the morning from the elevators. The air con would sometimes make quite loud noises for no apparent reason during the night, which was difficult to sleep through. It’s a shame because the staff were nice enough and the area is lovely (minus all the road works currently)

Our room had AC system that leaked on to our bed. They changed the bed linen and added a towel to the duct to absorb the water until morning. Morning past, afternoon past and in the following evening we arrived back to our room to find the water was dripping on the bed and floor like a running tap. We got told they would put another towel in to absorb the water through the night again but complained as it was nearly midnight at this point. We got moved to a temporary room to just sleep that night. It was awful. Noisy and smoke alarm kept flashing all night. The following mor I by the moved us to a “supreme” room. It was pretty standard room, luckily we did not have issues with the room going forward. The staff gave us a bottle of wine and some sweets to say sorry. Overall Food was delicious, staff were polite. The heated Pools were lovely but busy as expected during colder season and spa treatments were very good.
