We had a nice stay at the Diplomat. Right on the seafront. Didn't get a sea view room but we could still see the sea from our balcony. Nice clean room with complementary slippers and bath robes (bath robes are not for keeps though). Friendly staff. Plenty of options at the included breakfast buffet. There's a bus stop about 30 seconds walk outside and the buses are frequent and easy to use. Just jump on and pay a fixed fee which gives you about two hours of travel. Can't be used for a return journey though, you have to pay again to come back but it's only 2 euros so cheap as chips. Lots of restaurants in walking distance. Also has a spa, a gym and there's a pool and sun terrace on the roof which was deserted both times we went up there so we had it to ourselves. Has everything you want really. Recommend.

It was good, but the aircon in the room was too loud so couldn’t have it on over night. Also we only received one key so when we left the room the aircon was off and when we got in the room was too hot. Also a bit noisy and it is located on the main road but other than that it was a good hotel, clean with nice rooftop pool and views

Really nice hotel situated well
Can for sure recomnend this hotel. Staff are really friendly and service minded. Nice - small - pool on room top, loved it. Excellent buffet breakfast. Easy to walk to ferry to Valletta and plenty of restaurants nearby.

The room service was kind of weird, first they gave us new towls in a bag in front of the door, even though we said that we don’t need a room service. On the second day, a room card was missing after the room service, and on the third day they changed the towls and gave us back only one instead of two…
Breakfast was really great, you had plenty of choices.
Hotel location overall was perfect, directly next to the coastline, next to plenty of restaurants and nice views.

Wonderfully clean throughout, nice to receive a welcome drink and room snacks at the quick check in. Staff were all friendly and professional and the room was spotless. Breakfast buffet was very good, particularly the garlic mushrooms. Handy for buses to and from the airport etc. I will definitely recommend!
