Hotel Waterfront
The popular Hotel Waterfront stands right on Sliema's seafront, offering spectacular harbour views of Valletta.
Sliema’s bustling harbour is on the doorstep of the Hotel Waterfront. Ferries into Valletta leave from a nearby dock, plus coast-hugging buses stop right by the hotel.
As its name suggests, the Hotel Waterfront stands on the coast in Sliema, offering great views over the harbour from the lobby bar. What's more, this place is getting a complete overhaul for June 2017.

Beautiful views but ........
The positioning of the hotel in the resort is superb and the hotel lobby is very clean and contemporary. We had requested a twin bedded, front facing room with balcony. On entering our room, we were met with a series of surprises. The first was the carpet was very badly stained. The second was 1 x 8ft double bed and a put-you-up bed on the side and the third was a broken toilet flush with the panel left on the seat! There were also some broken tiles in the bathroom. (Photos attached) Following on, things did not improve as there were no mattress protectors on either bed, the pillows were spongy lumpy foam, the small bottle of water on the side was charged at 3 euros (would a complimentary bottle have been too much to expect?) and we were only "allowed" 2 sachets of coffee, 2 teabags and 2 sachets of milk between us per day!! (We did ask at reception for an extra couple of sachets of coffee and were refused.) Such a shame!More

Excellent short break
Just returned from 3 nights at this very modern, very clean, ideal location hotel. Staff, Sara, Alex, Michael, Joseph and 2 other male members absolutely helpful and polite at all times. Nothing seemed too much trouble. Breakfast very nice. Room spacious and kept clean. Ideal location for transport, ferries and everything in general to be honest. Ate out and some really nice restaurants, very reasonably priced all round we found. To be honest in our short period there we couldn’t find any faults and yes if back at anytime in Silemma would definitely return and recommend.More

A well run hotel
My wife and I stayed for two weeks in late September into October 2017on B & B basis. We had room 706 having a very pleasant outlook over the harbour. The hotel was spotlessly clean and staff were always polite and helpful, with the rare exception of one idle individual at breakfast service. We dined out every evening as there is an abundance and variety of good restaurants close by. The hotel is on the Strand at Sleima a dual carriageway that is busy from morning to night and as with any tourist centre construction work is always going on which generates a lot of noise. This is, of course, no fault of the hotel. The Waterfront is also undergoing some repair or modification so the indoor pool was out of action which was rather disappointing. Bus stops are within a five minute walk, as are ferry and other boat trip facilities.More

A very good "city-style" hotel
Stayed at The Waterfront hotel, Sliema, for 10 days mid September 2017. Its extensions and refurbishments are still ongoing and no doubt will continue for many months. Infact, much of Malta is a building site at the moment in preparation for its Capital of Culture year 2018. If you treat the Waterfront hotel as a city hotel rather than a relaxing resort hotel you will enjoy your stay far more. There is no pool nor sunbathing area, but its location is fantastic for daily sightseeing. Local buses can be caught along the road outside and provide frequent and reliable services (a 7 day adult ticket cost 21 euros). Valletta is approx 20-30 minutes journey. The ferry terminus is a short walk away. There is a half hourly ferry from Sliema to Valletta ( 1 euro 50 cents a single journey or just 50 cents for those over 60 ) Journey time 10 minutes. Local boat companies run different trips from the ferry terminus. There are also hop on hop off tourist buses for 2 different routes around Malta, plus Gozo island, which are well worth using. Outside the hotel is a promenade which gives a pleasant stroll to the bars, cafes, shops and the park on Manoel island. Our favourite local Maltese restaurant in Sliema was il-Malti, but we enjoyed very good food and drinks in all the cafes we visited on the island. Good value prices, standards and service. At the Waterfront we had a lovely refurbished deluxe room on 8th floor facing the water, Manoel island and Valletta. The road outside is busy, but our room had very good soundproofing, blackout curtains and air conditioning. We slept extremely well even though the bed was rather hard for our preference. The room has a very small balcony, but not a private one. The bedroom and shower room have all the necessary accessories (as mentioned in other reviews). Would suggest taking extra coat hangers and maybe shower shoes since the floor became slippy once wet with gel or shampoo. Reminder, Malta has the same electric sockets for 3 pin plugs as in Britain. Our room and the hotel were kept very, very clean. When we were there only one of the two new lifts was in operation, but we found another separate lift to the left of reception. We enjoyed a few "nightcap drinks" in the bar which is part of the reception area. The breakfasts were good, especially the hot food selection, but the dining room was more canteen style. We found all the staff to be very friendly, efficient and helpful. All in all we had a wonderful stay at this hotel and a great time in Malta.More
