Top 10 Regency Residence Hotels

We stayed in the Apartment, which was excellent for a week. The Apartment is large, well-equipped and comfortable, with two king bedrooms, two bathrooms, powder room, kitchen, living room and laundry. We also had access to the Living Room, which was nice for a drink in the evening. The staff were all welcoming, pleasant and helpful. It's conveniently located on the Tigne seafront, close to plenty of cafes and the ferry to Valletta. The hotel's only a year or so old so everything feels brand new.

Great new hotel, very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent cleaning. Cozy bar with delicious cocktails. Sorry that the outdoor pool was closed. Fine spa. Prima breakfast and dinner in buffet form freshly prepared.

This is such a treat, to write about a hotel we loved. This truly is made so special by the staff, from the top to the bottom. Fabulous attitudes to guests from the staff, the reception team are super welcoming . Rooms are modern and spacious , some boast sea views. Breakfast was as good as any , without a 'Four seasons 'price tag. And when the General manager offers you a coffee as he sees that breakfast was busy!!! We were blown away, normally everyone is busy so you get ignored not here. Margaux restaurant is great use of the space in the evening , saves going out. Great cocktails served in the bar in the evening at great prices. Stand out member of staff was Petra on reception. Great view from the beach front bar.

Returned 2 weeks ago after a wonderful week saying at The Palace Hotel. It took a long time to decide where to stay in Malta given the enormous choice and yet very mixed reviews, however I was really pleased we settled on The Palace. I did 1 less star for 'value', but this wasn't just in relation to The Palace as I thought generally hotel's in Malta were definitely on the pricier side. The room was lovely with the biggest bed I’ve ever seen and we had some lovely touches such as a daily visit from hospitality asking if we needed anything, and a bottle of filtered water changed daily. An excellent idea and far better than the frequent plastic bottles and subsequent waste. We also arrived on my husband’s birthday and quite unexpectedly in the evening, a lovely birthday cake was delivered to our room! From our initial greeting at reception with a lovely local drink and onwards, we had a brilliant service from every single member of staff. They were all very helpful and yet not intrusive. In particular lovely Puja in the wonderful TemptAsian’ restaurant, and Dhilip who served us both by the pool and at the ground floor Talk of the Town restaurant. Both were extremely knowledgeable and gave sound advice regarding choice of meals and suitable local wines. As we like to try local restaurants when we go away, we chose the bed and breakfast option however we were so impressed with the lovely rooftop TemptAsian restaurant we ate there twice. We then went for the buffet in the Talk of the Town restaurant on our last night, where we again had an excellent service from Dhilip, and where the food was well presented and excellent value for money. Sliema is a busy place with lots of hotels, and as other reviewers have stated, The Palace was within the centre of the peninsula, so although it wasn’t in the most picturesque road, given its proximity to all public transport, the ferry and bus stops including the ‘hop on/off’, we felt there was no necessity to hire a car. We did the short ferry over to Valletta many times and a bonus for us was a considerable ‘over 60’ concession. We managed to cram a lot in during our week in Malta from the numerous museums, tombs, caves and other historical places, in addition to exploration of the island on both the north and south hop on/off buses and brief trip to Gozo. I’m not sure we could not have done quite so much had we not been in such an ideal location. The other bonus was on the days we were back in time, having a swim in the gorgeous rooftop pool, and the Happy hour cocktails between 3 and 5 pm. Highly recommend this as a wonderful place to stay in Malta.

Sliema Hotel is in a very good location, staff is super friendly and helpful. And that's all ;) room was dirty, there was a mold on the shower curtain and a huge hole above the bathtub. We could hear all noises (even working elevator!). But the biggest surprise was with the pool. Because there is no pool in the hotel, although you can see it on the photos. To access the pool from the photos you have to cross the road and walk few hundred meters.

The hotel is located in a very quiet area of Sliema. A walk can reach the port where you can concentrate bars, restaurants and shops and from which the ferries to Valletta and to Gozo and Comino excursions. The hotel is very close to the buses for various destinations. The staff is young, very nice and available. The room is very beautiful and the cleaning is excellent. The breakfast is a sweet and salty food, not a very variety, but it is very good for me: salsa, cheese, eggs broken, fresh fruit, fruit juices, various types of bread, marmelade, honey, yoghurt and mini croissant. The small interior garden is clean and relaxing. I think it's a separate restaurant with excellent dishes.
