Nice hotel near the marina. Excellent service from the staff. The indoor pool was a bit smaller than expected but did the trick. Enjoyed the location and the amenities nearby. A bit small the room but nicely decorated. Good hotel for exploring Malta.

The Novotel was in a great spot in Sliema. The room was nice with comfy bed The outdoor pool on the roof closed at 6 pm. Can understand it would be difficult to have children in the pool later as next to the bar area but would be nice for adults to swim later Breakfast was nice but very busy so not as leisurely as would have liked it but

Excellent location near the harbour and Valletta is a short and inexpensive boat trip away. The hotel was very clean and the staff were very accommodating. Breakfast was a buffet affair and was reasonable with a lot of choice. My only negative point is that the rooftop pool is also made available for public use so gets crowded very quickly. You have to be quick if you want a subbed…However there is an exclusive indoor pool with spa, steam room and sauna which we used a lot and enjoyed immensely. A very nice hotel which I would recommend.

Quiet location in Sliema. Modern Hotel with fantastic amenities. The Pool was one of the best i have ever visited on vacations, with views over the city. The room was spacious, modern, with a nice view. Staff was fantastic and helped with any request we had. Our flight left before the breakfast buffet opened so they even provided us with freshly made sandwiches and fruit, that we can take with us and eat on the road.

Pool not opening till 10 and the gym 8 is not helpful if you want to work out before going out for the day or to work. Restaurant closing at 6 on the room seems silly also given the view!
