"Fantastic see view. Great choice of wines in restaurant. Breakfast is fine. Nice walking area around. The only small issue is if you wish a sea view room, you have to accept the noise from beach toad (anyway not much disturbing if to close the balcony doors), but in this case you can choose a room with pool or city view. The staff is fine. In general good stay."

"This hotel is in the middle of a largely residential area but the rest of the island is easily accessible via Uber/Bolt taxis at very reasonable prices. We only had breakfast at the hotel which was very good with a full choice available. It is worthwhile walking around the districts adjoining the property where there are several villages wth small bars and restaurants . We found the local people to be very friendly. Many of the buildings are very historic and beautiful."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Marsa?
The best area to stay in Marsa, Malta, is generally not within Marsa itself, as it's primarily an industrial and port area. Instead, travelers looking for convenience and quality should consider staying in nearby Valletta or the Three Cities (Vittoriosa, Senglea, and Cospicua), which offer much more for visitors.Valletta is an excellent choice for couples and those interested in history and culture. This UNESCO World Heritage site is Malta's capital, known for its Baroque architecture, narrow streets, and impressive fortifications. You'll find a wide array of high-end hotels, fine dining restaurants, and cultural attractions like St. John's Co-Cathedral and the Grand Master's Palace. Its central bus terminus provides easy access to other parts of the island.For travelers seeking a more authentic and quieter experience, the Three Cities, particularly Vittoriosa (Birgu), are ideal. These fortified cities predate Valletta and offer a glimpse into Malta's maritime past. Vittoriosa has a charming waterfront with excellent restaurants, a marina, and historical sites like Fort St. Angelo.
When is the best time to go to Marsa?
