Overall Ratings & Reviews Solana Hotel & Spa

Great hotel for the Mallehia area. Lovely roofdeck and front desk was super helpful and friendly. Buying breakfast option is a great idea and buying 2-3 of the buffet dinners (more affordable and more food options) than local restaurants. The indoor pool wasn’t heated until we asked about it. The roofdeck pool that was supposed to be headed was out of service. Bring your own beach towel for hotel. They give you a beach towel but then it’s €5 to exchange them out. I get that some people abuse the system but €5 is almost equavalent to buying a new towel at the beach. Charging €1-2 makes more sense. Overall had a nice stay in Malta and would stay at the hotel again if I was in this area again.

Lovely stay, excellent breakfast and buffet meal, singer was good who was there couple nights. All staff friendly and helpful,facilities great

Had a great 3 night stay for business. Amazing facilities, happy hour and food in hotel. Only minor criticism was that they cleaned more room floor with a dirty mop and it left a wet dog smell for a day.

Overall a great stay, very nice hotel in a location which suited our needs. The breakfast buffet was very good, although items were not as readily available later in the morning.

Overall, pretty good. We had a superior room but I wasn’t sure what was superior about it. Bathroom was nice but the furniture was a bit dated. Tiny balcony with a table and chairs but you had to move them to get on to it. I would stay there again

Perfect place

Very convenient and safe location. Very friendly and accommodating staff

Great place to stay! Food options are halal, themed buffet nights and a restaurant on site. Very clean and the spa is lovely with lots of treatments to choose from. Had one of the best facials there! Rooms were a little small considering we booked studio rooms. Rooms came with a spacious bathroom and a built in kitchen. Would have like more in room services such as water bottles and an iron.

I recently stayed at this hotel, drawn by its high ratings and promising amenities. Well located on a very quiet main road. Walking distance places to visit or with Bolt taxis. While there were aspects I appreciated, some experiences fell short of expectations. Positives: The hotel boasts a refreshed and welcoming ambiance, with modern decor that creates a pleasant atmosphere. Nice spa. The staff at the front desk were courteous and helpful during check-in, the stay, questions and making the arrival process smooth.​ Great shower! Areas for Improvement: Despite booking a premium room, the view was underwhelming (inexistant!), overlooking a dark corner area where a workman was drilling next to the balcony. This resulted in dust accumulation, which remained uncleaned the following day.​ The room felt cold (thin duvet), and adjusting the temperature controls didn't seem to make a difference, affecting overall comfort.​ Breakfast was average; the food lacked flavor, either under or overcooked or oily. Additionally, a few morning staff members seemed disengaged, impacting the dining experience.​ An unpleasant odor in the reception area, seemingly emanating from the pool and spa below, was noticeable and detracted from the otherwise inviting lobby.​ I experienced an issue with the elevator, getting stuck and requiring assistance, which was inconvenient and concerning.​ The area is nice for 2-3 days then you need to go further away to enjoy the island more. 3 out of 5 stars

The Solana is a good hotel, in a great location.Staff were amazing, very helpful , they went the extra mile! On the downside, their AC only works at to a certain temperature depending on the time of year, not great as our room was warm. We also had to swap rooms after two days due to the noise from a large flume vent outside our bedroom window, the hotel were more than happy to accommodate with a new room.

A modern hotel very friendly staff on reception breakfast service cleaning staff all spoke i liked that a credit to hotel .my room was clean spacious a good shower bed comfy .i thought breakfast was excellent. Its on a bus linebus stop a few minutes away i very much enjoyed my stay thankyouas a sol traveller i was made to feel welcome.

Exceptional property. Very friendly and polite staff. Delicious breakfast. Clean rooms.

Property was good. However they don’t replenish the room with a bottle of water everyday. Other than that can’t complain

A well maintained property with clean and comfortable room. Shoulder season and rooftop pools not heated. Breakfast is above average although limited gluten free choices I overpaid booking ahead. In spring one could get same room for almost half listed price last minute Plenty of restaurants in area. Great bus service to airport, Gozo and Valetta by boat piers a 15 minute bus ride away

Lovely Hotel with great facilities and really really friendly and helpful staff. Great happy hour for cocktails, room cleaned daily. The only downside was perhaps the wet room style shower as the water goes everywhere.

On the hotel website it specifically states for a superior room that there is adjustable air conditioning and in the details it states there is individually controlled air conditioning. This is not the case and we were told by staff and maintenance that the hotel is on winter setting which meant the room would not go below 24 degrees. It is recommended that a room temperature is between 15.6-20 degrees Celsius for the most comfortable sleep, 24 was too hot. A portable fan and an AC unit was provided however both were too noisy and the AC unit blew out hot air at the back and needed the balcony door open to function. For security and noise we were not able to sleep with the balcony door open through the night. Really not good enough considering the wording on the room description on hotels.com and the hotel website.

Loved it. Staff were patient, attentive, friendly and conscientious.

Great value for money. Family friendly and staff couldn't have been more helpful.

The hotel was very clean and staff were friendly helpful would definitely recommend to stay again

It is a very nice welcoming hotel and I enjoyed my stay tremendously. I upgraded my room and the breakfast deal . Absolutely no complaints and I would return again . The staff are all exceptionally great.
