"We love this hotel . The location was amazing and close to restaurants and the beach. We loved access to the pool across the road. The staff were incredibly friendly and the room, although small, was perfect for sleeping in as we were out all day. The little shop downstairs and across the road had everything we wanted for our trip will definitely return."

"Hotel was very nice. Breakfast was amazing. Most probably one of the best hotels breakfasts I’ve had lots of variety. Staff friendly. Hotel was very clean. 10 minute walk to Paceville very central to St Julian’s. Easy access to other parts of the island via public transport. Only downside is that the Aircon wasn’t the greatest. Wasn’t very powerful and the room felt constantly sticky. Couldn’t get the room temp cooler than 26°"
