Top Sliema Hotel Reviews

Ta' Tereza In Manwel Dimech

8/10 Good

"Room was good size, no view from balcony, except air conditioning units. Air conditioning was quite noisy. Breakfast was good. Close to bus routes. Shower flooded floor every time you used it. There were a few ants on the floor, and we were on the 4th floor, which was strange. There was a bad smell in the lift and corridors. The pool area was disappointing, not like the pictures, so we didn't use it, pool area looked like it could be updated a bit. Staff were helpful, fridge in room was handy, and good size. It was a bit of an uphill walk from the ferry. Beds were ok. Two wardrobes in room which was good. Balcony was good size."
