Directly on the Sliema waterfront
The hotel sits right on the seafront in Sliema. Several room categories face the sea, and the terrace gives a place to sit outside without leaving the property. The Sliema promenade runs along the water just outside.
Sea-view rooms with balconies
Four room categories include a balcony and sea view. These range from 15 m² doubles up to a 29 m² quad. The balcony is a meaningful upgrade at this address given the waterfront position.
