Waterfront

Lovely hotel and excellent staff, but don’t choose it because of the outdoor pool. We found this unusable as it’s open to the public and unbelievably crowded. Also the pool is small and not suitable for kids as it’s full of adults just standing in it. The indoor pool was a saving grace. The room and breakfast were good and the outdoor rooftop restaurant was a beautiful place to eat one night.

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.

Lovely hotel, comfortable and clean rooms, the hotel was well maintained throughout. The location is good and you get free use of the pool across the road.

This was a lovely hotel. Excellent choices of where to dine or have a drink in the hotel. The views from the terraces are fantastic. The breakfast buffet was amazing including the made to order omelets. Staff were awesome. The location is on the waterfront in Sliema. The ferries are close by and there is great bus service to other areas of the island.
