The hotel is well situated on Selima harbour, with the outside pool and sunbathing area opposite, free of charge. It also has an indoor gym with swimming pool and sauna. It is close to several quality restaurants including it own. We took advantage of all the offers, buy one get one free drinks every night in the roof top bar, 25% off food and drink on steak promotion night. The breakfast catered for every diet with full cooked, continental, vegan and vegetarian. The staff were very helpful and polite.

From the moment you enter Lobby there is someone Greetings you, taking your luggage as you go to Front Desk. Staff was extremely friendly, Professional and helpful. Given choice of a juice or sparkling wine. Very Clean spacious area. Our Room was very clean and spacious with a beautiful view of the Harbour. A cozy balcony to enjoy the fresh air and views. Complimentary Large bottle of water always replenished. Bed was very comfortable. ***Our Room Attendants Bernadeth and Marly were so efficient and attentive to every detail. Wonderful Personalities and an Asset to the Hotel Staff. ***We had The Buffett Breakfast included. Absolutely Amazing. A vast variety of food choices, Gluten Free Section, always fresh pastries, breads and fruits. Specialty Coffee section, Fresh squeezed Orange juice machine and a good hot section of Bacon, sausages, tomatoes, beans and a variety of egg types. Employee always checking temperature of foods. ***Cafeteria Staff are very friendly, prompt to take away dishes when done. Very efficient. We had great Service from Anu, Nora, Glena and Noah (Noan, unsure of spelling). His name tag said he was Training however he was excellent at his tasks at hand and very pleasant. The entire staff are very hard working and always smiling and pleasant. ***Front desk Staff were prompt in dealing with any concerns we had and reported back to us immediately when needed.

This was a lovely hotel and very well located. It was within easy reach to all the sights of Malta. Breakfast was really nice as well with a good selection offered. They made omelets to order and were making pancakes on some days. Fresh coffee was also made specifically and there was fresh orange juice. The staff were all wonderful and friendly with a special thanks to Mashud who was always helpful at breakfast, especially when my husband was not feeling well. Puja was also really welcoming with a smile always. The room was modern and very spacious and clean and bright. Thanks to Rima for her work. We were on the second floor and had a lovely side view of the sea although we did not have a balcony the window opened fully so felt like we had one. The indoor pool area was peaceful after a day out and had a jacuzzi and sauna. We did not go to the outdoor pool which was across the street. This was a shame as I felt the hotel would been excellent if they could have an outdoor pool on sight. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would go back if I was to go to Malta again.

Superb Hotel, really clean and brilliant breakfast, so much choice. Rooftop bar has excellent views over the harbour, was happy hour all month so 2 for 1 on drinks made it special. Indoor gym and pool available as well as outdoor pool at Auqaluna over the road. Great location on the front.

We stayed here for 3 nights and really enjoyed our stay at The Waterfront. The hotel itself is clean, modern and has good facilities. There is an inside pool, jacuzzi and gym on the 10th floor as well as rooftop bar and an outside terrace which opens in the summer months. I have to say what makes it special is the staff that work here, they go out of their way to make you feel valued and welcome. Breakfast was great, with a huge choice of hot and cold options available. Special mention to Olena at breakfast who always made a point of saying hello and asking how we were getting on during our stay. It was my 50th birthday celebrations and they allocated us a nicer room and had decorated it before our arrival. The other added bonus is access to the Aqua Luna outside pool over the road. This is also a nice place to relax and chill which charges non Waterfront guests 30 euros per day to use, so it’s a useful perk to staying here. I highly recommend staying here it really is a superb place to stay.

We changed hotels at the last minute and we are so glad we did. The hotel was spotless and the building was highly maintained, the staff were amazing, friendly, and very welcoming. We have stayed in many countries this was the best breakfast by far, fresh coffee, iced coffee or other hot beverages of your choice made fresh just for you no old fashioned coffee pots, the breakfast choice had a choice to suit everybody, "The Waterfront" is "on point"when it comes to expectations of hotels in 2026, if I had to pick a fault like most hotel gyms it is ok but if I was that desperate to run I had miles of coast to run around. We will be back and we know where we will be staying thanks to all the smiling staff that made our stay fabulous Dave and Lisa England x
