The hotel has a very convenient location, close to the sea, promenade, and bus station in Sliema. The rooms are quite noisy due to road traffic and surrounded by nearby buildings, making them feel oppressive at times. However, the location makes up for it, and the service is pleasant despite some lacking emergency cautions.

The hotel is ideally located in Sliema, close to Tigne Point and with easy access to restaurants and public transport. The rooms are spacious though lacking in aesthetics from the outside view. The service, particularly at breakfast, was very friendly and efficient, with small gestures making a big difference.

The hotel's location is superb, right next to the seaside and within easy reach of restaurants and bus stops. The rooms, though a bit dark with minimal views, are cleaned daily with fresh towels and toiletries provided. The service from the staff is friendly and helpful, especially with travel advice, although the breakfast checking can feel a bit monitoring. The dining options are varied, with a good selection available, and the hotel facilities are satisfactory with some limitations.

The hotel is conveniently located on the promenade of Sliema with easy access to bus stops, bars, and restaurants, making it a great spot to explore the area. The rooms, while basic, are serviced to a high standard but could use a touch of coziness. The service is friendly and efficient, led by a passionate manager always available to assist. The dining experience, however, falls short with limited and less healthy options. Overall, a well-located property with room for improvement in certain areas.

The hotel's location is wonderful, being perfect for those inclined towards clubbing and in close proximity to various shops in Sliema. The rooms offer an okay experience, but I found the lack of a view and the unreachable ceiling fan a bit frustrating. The service was pleasant overall, with the Europa Hotel being particularly accommodating. The dining options, while decent, didn't blow me away, though the €5 value was a standout. A mixed bag of offerings but still a worthwhile stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and clean, but lacked storage options for clothes. The view from the rooms was bright and refreshing, possibly due to recent renovations. However, the room temperature had to be manually adjusted with an old rusty electrical radiator, limiting comfort. The service was a pleasant surprise with friendly and knowledgeable staff, although some were preoccupied with their phones. The location was excellent for exploring Malta, near the beach and with easy access to local transport. The dining experience was hit or miss, with some dishes like natural-cut fries being great while the wait times not so much.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean but lacked electrical power and were quite dark and uninviting with tiny windows overlooking a courtyard with a trash smell. On the bright side, the service was friendly and helpful, although there were some disturbances like loud talking early in the morning. The location was fantastic with plenty of nearby attractions and the beach right at the doorstep. The dining options were limited but satisfactory, considering the affordable price.
