What Guests Say About Their Stay

David

The Waterfront is a no-frills mid-range hotel located on the Sliema waterfront, a short walk to the ferries and in the heart of the restaurant and bar district. The hotel is very well-maintained with gracious and helpful staff. The buffet breakfast in the Regatta Room is highly recommended with its lavish array of hot and cold selections. The 1Olive rooftop restaurant is a fun open-air setting but its themed buffet offerings are a big disappointment - I can't recommend dinner there.. By contrast the Cielo rooftop bar on the other tower is highly recommended for drinks and snacks, and sports a beautiful view of the cityscape. The guest rooms are clean and well-maintained but don't expect luxury accommodations as they are geared toward value-conscious travelers who value function and basic comfort versus frippery. There is a small, rather disappointing indoor private pool onsite but guests are also given free access to the Aqualuna outdoor pool resort across the street, which is a bit of a mob-scene and a tad down-market. When we stayed in early July 2026 most of the clientele were middle-class UK couples and groups in their 50s or 60s, so adjust accordingly to your own demographics. Overall we were very pleased with our stay and highly recommend this hotel.

The Waterfront went above and beyond our expectations! I stayed with my friend in one of the side sea view rooms. We were really pleased with the size of the room and balcony view out to Valletta. Breakfast was excellent, really liked the omelette order option, plenty of fruit and the fresh orange juice. It was my friends birthday during our stay and staff brought up a chocolate tart to our room which was a lovely touch. Great to have the wristbands for the pool across road, it gets jammed during weekends but we always found sunbeds. There was an indoor spa and gym which we saw but didnt use. A shower is available post check out to go to the airport refreshed. Loved the rooftop bar for drinks with an amazing view, we didnt eat at the upstairs restaurant but heard good things from guests who did, saying it was excellent value. Overall, wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel, exceptional service, well located and everything you would need for a great restful stay!

The hotel is lovely, clean, welcoming staff and top notch breakfast. Would recommend getting a room that over looks the habour, it’s a stunning view each morning (except for the noisy road) only negative I have about the hotel is the outdoor pool being across the road, no direct access from outside the hotel and it’s open to the public, it got very busy on a few days. Would highly recommend especially if not fussed about outdoor pool. Thanks for a lovely stay.

The Hotel is in an excellent location. The outside pool is across the road and is really cool, with a pool and cafe/restaurant. We really enjoyed the inside pool on the 10th floor. We used the Spa whilst we were there and had a facial which was fantastic. We felt so relaxed after and prices were reasonable. The Olivio restaurant had great theme nights and excellent food and entertainment. The views were spectacular!

Room was side view of bay and had toiletries and safe and iron/hairdryer. Very comfortable and clean. Water station outside of room was nice in such warm weather. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was 15euro pp and it was very good value. Great location for access to ferries and shops and bars/restaurants.

Great rooms but sea view with balcony a bit noisy until 11:30 from the restaurant across the road. That was on the 10th floor. Resort is very vibrant.
