Cleanliness

Waterfront is a comfortable, clean and stylish hotel with high standards of cleanliness praised by many guests. The rooms are spotlessly clean, new and well-equipped which guests found comfortable and cozy. The staff is attentive and provides superb service, including daily room cleaning and bathroom maintenance. While some guests reported small issues such as a sewage smell or occasional stains on duvets and slippery shower floors, these were dealt with quickly and efficiently upon request. The hotel's facilities are of high quality and the location, close to the ferry and with amazing views, is perfect. The only thing that some guests mentioned was the daily waste of single-use plastic toiletries and breakfast samples.

Travelers staying at Waterfront can expect a warm and welcoming experience from the highly praised staff. Guests repeatedly mention the friendly, helpful, attentive and accommodating personalities of the staff. They go above and beyond to make sure guests have a pleasant stay with nice touches such as chocolates on the bed and treats delivered to the room with the next day's weather forecast.

Gym

The gym at the Waterfront hotel has received mixed reviews from guests with some describing it as 'nice' and 'good facilities', while others have found it to be 'disappointing' or 'tiny'. Equipment issues have been reported with some machines not working properly. However, the gym boasts spectacular views of the port and bay through its windows. Guests have also praised the access to the nearby Aqualuna and the addition of a sauna. Fitness enthusiasts should note that the gym is quite small and can feel crowded when busy. The early closing time of the hotel bar has been highlighted as a downside for some guests. Overall, while there may be room for improvement, the Waterfront's gym and fitness facilities offer a reasonable option for those looking to maintain their fitness regime while on holiday.

Pool

Waterfront hotel offers a selection of pools, including a nice outdoor pool overlooking Valletta on a terrace, a heated indoor pool with spa jacuzzi and access to Aqua Luna center with a heated pool and solarium. Guests appreciated the opportunity to use two swimming pools and some enjoyed free wine or beer between 5 and 6. The hotel’s central location provided great views of Valletta and the breakfast was good, according to some. However, the rooftop bar was closed for winter and the picture of the swimming pool overlooking the bay was misleading since the pool turned out to be small. Moreover, the outdoor pool was located across the road and a pass was required to get in. Nevertheless, the majority of guests praised the pool amenities, describing them as a great option, amazing and a lovely touch.

4 Star

Waterfront hotel offers a high-quality and luxurious stay with superb facilities and services that are hard to find in other four-star hotels. The location of the hotel is perfect as it is near to ferries, restaurants, bars and good places to visit. Moreover, the hotel is wonderfully quiet, providing guests with a calm and relaxing environment. The breakfast served is very good, although some guests felt it was too basic for a four-star hotel. Despite some minor issues, overall, the hotel was highly recommended and guests enjoyed their stay.

Outdoor Pool

The Waterfront hotel boasts a beautiful outdoor pool with amazing views of La Valette. While it may be located across a busy street, guests rave about the perfect pool experience once they get there. The pool is well-maintained and even heated in the cooler months, making it a pleasant swimming option no matter the time of year. In addition, the outside pool bar is fab and allows guests to enjoy a cocktail or pizza while basking in the sun. Although some guests may find the journey to the pool not the most comfortable, the beautiful terrace and dachterrasse make it all worthwhile. Aqua Luna, the pool located across the road, is free for guests to use, but may be too chilly in January. All in all, the outdoor pool is a must-visit feature of the Waterfront.

Indoor Pool

The Waterfront hotel offers a peaceful rooftop terrace with a small indoor pool - perfect for a few hours of relaxation while waiting for your departure. The indoor pool is great and even heated in March, making a dip enjoyable despite the cooler weather. There is also a whirlpool and sauna available for guests to use free of charge. While some reviews noted the indoor pool may not be as impressive as in the pictures, others found it pleasant with one stating it was "a nice indoor pool on the 10th floor."
