Net, comfortabel, vriendelijk maar helaas ook luid.
Pros:

Zeer net en comfortabel hotel. Zeer vriendelijke ontvangst en personeel. Uitgebreid en uitstekend ontbijtbuffet. Goed gelegen voor verschillende uitstapjes in en rond Valletta.

Cons:

Wij hadden het geluk om een kamer met zicht op de baai te hebben, maar tegelijk komt dat met de pech dat je de drukke, lawaaierige straat (ook 's nachts) erbij moet nemen. Het hotel ontvangt schijnbaar ook veel grotere groepen en ook dat passeert niet geruisloos.

A memorable visit to Malta
Pros:

Our stay was exceptional in all ways! This is the most service oriented hotel we have ever stayed in. From our check-in with Tanku, continuing service from Zomaib, and the wonderful service in the breakfast room with Olena, who was more than pleasant each morning, we were impressed with the team. We can't say enough about the Assistant Manager Lilian, we had lengthy conversations with her and appreciated her very hands on, managing by walking around approach. I have never experienced a more service oriented team, they were excellent. I apologize if I misspelled anyone's name.

To say our room view was excellent doesn't do it justice. It was spectacular! Our view over the entire harbor was wonderful. With our balcony, it was tempting to stay in our room and just enjoy the view, how much better can it get?

Our sincere thanks to the entire team, we loved our 4 day visit.

Cons:

Nothing that comes to mind. An excellent stay.

Das Frühstück war einfach fantastisch, es ließ keine Wünsche offen.

Rewelacyjny pobyt urodzinowy
Pros:

Zostaliśmy powitani lampką szampana przy zameldowaniu a syn sokiem pomarańczowym. W pokoju mieliśmy miła niespodziankę urodzinowe ciastko z życzeniami oraz urodzinowy wystrój pokoju. Pokój sprzątany codziennie, ręczniki również wymieniane codziennie, śniadania obfite z możliwością widoku na przystań. Dobra baza wypadowa do innych miejsc. Jacuzzi funkcjonowało czasem działało czasem nie. Ogólnie pobyt oceniam rewelacyjnie. Obsługa w recepcji perfekcyjna i bardzo życzliwa.

Wonderful experience provided by a professional staff.
Pros:

Staying at the Waterfront hotel on the strip for a month was a wonderful way to see Malta and explore the area. The hotel atmosphere provides welcome relief after a long day of seeing the sights helping you relax. The Breakfast area had a variety of traditional hot items along with Gluten free and vegan items with fresh fruits, breads, specialty items and amazing coffee baristas. The beds were comfortable the room was spacious, clean and well appointed. The value and quality provided by the hotel is exceptional.
We would personally like to thank the front desk staff Tanku along with Charmaine and Maia, the restaurant hospitality staff Nora & Olena, G.M.Frederick. The housekeeping staff for making our stay wonderful. Hats off to the maintenance group for helping with a specific request. If we left anyone out we apologize.
Hope to be back next year.
Thanks again.

Very nice stay in Waterfall
Pros:

I spent 4 nights in Waterfall and enjoyed a lot my stay. The location of the hotel is perfect. From the balcony of my room, the view of the Sliema bay is marvelous. The room is clean and comfortable. The staff are very friendly and always ready for help. I'd like to give my special appreciation for Rikta. Every morning during breakfast, she welcomed me warmly and gave me suggestions for places i could visit during the day.

Kiemelkedő a kínálatból .
Pros:

Nagyon kellemes hely. A személyzet lesi minden kívánságát a vendégeknek. A reggeli átlagon felüli. Nóra, a felszolgáló kisasszony, nagyon kedves és segítőkész. Közel van a buszmegálló és számtalan étterem. A kilátás a kikötőre és Valettára nagyon hangulatos.

Cons:

Nem volt ilyen, a szállás hibátlan. Minden ott töltött percet élveztük.
