Hotel is not what is shown on webpage. Room was clean, nicely decorated, cool, comfortable. Mini fridge a bonus for storing some provisions. Balcony great to enjoy a glass of wine before heading out.

read before i went that a few would rate this 4 star and others think the 3 stars is right for the offerring but really would not take much to be 100% deserving of the 4 stars with a little expenditure.

This is a well situated hotel in St Paul's Bay close to the sea and within easy reach of local transport and with lots of cafes and restaurants nearby. Check in was quick and easy with helpful advice from the receptionists. Rooms are fairly spacious with a large screen TV, kettle, fridge that are well maintained and cleaned daily. The hotel has a nice rooftop sun deck with a small 1 metre depth pool on the 7th floor. Snacks and drinks are available from coin operated vending machines at reasonable prices in the sun deck but reception snacks and drinks are ultra expensive. A good standard of accommodation for the price.

The staff was very kind, the rooms are good for the price, nothing outstanding but convenient. The breakfast was the same everyday, very standard, clean overall, check out late. It was a construction around it, all of the good but disturbing in the morning and the surrounders are great. Bar, restaurants, the beach, for running, easy transport, including for a direct bus to the airport and for packages to go to the islands are around it. Make sure to find the right one.

Enjoyable staff, staff very friendly and helpful. A couple of things that could improve the hotel. One there is no where to hang the towels and two the tea is awful, cheap tea bags.

Lovely cleaning and breakfast staff. Nice breakfast selection (cereal, yoghurt, full English etc). Lovely small pool at the rooftop area. Found the hotel to be good value and very central. The internal shaft room is very basic and a bit smelly though so nothing fancy, only a room to crash in after a full day. Rooms have no key card but code access, which was practical.

Really helpful staff. Roof pool only a small 1metre deep 3 by 3 metre roughly cooling off pool. My room on 3rd floor air conditioned with nice balcony, clean well serviced. Breakfast self service, adequate, not outstanding but ok.

The property was ideal for what I was after, and I have no complaints at all. The only potential downside for some could be that sound travels well outside the hotel as it is in a busy social location, and the soundproofing could be improved. Quite noisy with early morning deliveries and late evening chatting etc

I recently stayed at this hotel, which boasts an excellent location. Despite accidentally booking a room without a balcony, I found the accommodations to be satisfactory. The housekeeping service was exceptional, with the staff member responsible for cleaning my room being particularly friendly and helpful. The reception staff were also outstanding, consistently providing assistance whenever needed. I would not hesitate to book here again.

Meh!
Hotel was unfinished. E.g. my shower didn’t have ledges to put toiletries and not toilet roll holder. The balcony was also not sufficiently finished.

Das Hotel ist in einer guten Lage, allerdings nicht so wie es auf den Bilder. Der Comfort und das Frühstücksbüffet könnten ausgebaut werden. Im Bad sowie im Zimmer fehlen jegliche Ablagemöglichkiten.
