シービューが最高なお部屋！
Pros:

レセプションやお部屋が新しく、洗練された空間だった。
お部屋にはメッセージとお菓子が用意されていてとても心遣いを感じた。
また窓から見える海、バレッタの景色が最高でした！

Cons:

特にないが、今回予約したのがスイートルームだったので、もう少しお部屋が広くてもいいかも。

Pros:

All the staffs were super. Very nice breakfast and nice rooms. Can recommend for anyone staying in the area or wanting to visit Valletta

Cons:

A far walk to the pool and it was not clear a special card for the pool access had to be picked up at the reception prior to using the pool, not even when we picked up the towels.

Fantastischer Aufenthalt
Pros:

Ein wirklich tolles Hotel in Sliema! Besonders hervorheben möchte ich das freundliche und aufmerksame Personal, das den Aufenthalt von Anfang an sehr angenehm gemacht hat. Auch das Frühstücksbuffet war hervorragend – abwechslungsreich, frisch und sehr lecker. Insgesamt eine klare Empfehlung für alle, die eine komfortable Unterkunft in guter Lage mit bestem Service suchen.

Pros:

The Barceló Fortina has amazing views of the harbour. From some rooms, like ours, you also have a superb view of the nearby stadium, we watched a whole football match one evening.

Ein schönes Hotel mit nettem Personal und gutem Frühstück.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war sehr gut.Die Lage ebenfalls

Cons:

Der Pool war sehr klein und wurde nach 4 Tagen langsam schmutzig.Die Poolpumpe war so laut,daß man sich nicht auf die bereitgestellten Liegen ausruhen konnte.Die Stufen zum Pool waren von ca.15 cm und 30cm unterschiedlich.

Generally it was okay
Cons:

1. The breakfast service felt overly intrusive, as staff stayed too close, which made us feel watched and uncomfortable.
2. The design of the shower gel and similar bottles is inconvenient—they are hard to press and dispense too little product.
3. The sink drains slowly and has an unpleasant odor. Additionally, the towels also had a noticeable smell.

Stylish and spacious hotel
Pros:

Luxury room, spacious. Felt at home.
Great gym.
Food at pool bars was delicious.

Cons:

The loud music at the pool. Pool was beautiful, but a pity you couldn't come there more spontaneously. Also the DJs were quite nice, but personally I'd prefer to listen to the sound of the sea when I'm on holidays.
