"We chose this hotel because of it's location in Sliema and we had a lovely time here. We were upgraded to a sea view room on arrival and it was perfect - clean, spacious and comfortable. Breakfast had a good selection and the complimentary aqualuna pool across the street was a great place to relax and swim. The best part was that the staff were all lovely, we'll definitely be back.

8/10 Good
"This hotel does not live up to the Intercontinental name. The hotel needs major room renovations. The lobby area and restaurant areas are nice but the rooms are so outdated. The 1st room we checked in had a musty smell and the carpets were stained. Asked for a room change, the staff were very helpful and accommodating. The 2nd room was a bit better but the same issue with the old carpet. We had club access which gave us separate breakfast area, tea time and pre-dinner food and drinks. The Seabeach pool on 19th floor is very nice but even with Club Access we were told that the amenities were not included and it was an extra charge. Overall not a bad stay. Location is perfect. The staff made sure we were taken care of, and they worked very hard with a smile 😊"
