Ta' Mena Estate

The property was pretty much as described. It was in a good location in Sliema, walkable distance from bus stops and tourist attractions within Sliema, which was exactly what I was looking for. The condition of the property was good, however the check in procedure was really hard as there were no staff on property apart from room service staff, and they had to telephone a manager to check me in, no card accepted to pay the tourist tax, only cash. I couldn’t also figure out how to get in to the property when the door was locked as I was promised to be given with some sort of a ‘code’ and there was meant to be a code for a front door but that is still a mystery. The overall cleanliness was ok but it wasn’t perfect, as I have found a tiny bit of rubbish in the shower, a hair on a duvet cover, and there was no soap provided for the wash basin. I don’t like leaving bad reviews but I’m leaving an honest one instead. If you are looking for a budget stay and not planning on spending too much time in accommodation, then it should be perfect for you, as it serves the purpose and overall isn’t a bad place to stay with some room for improvement 😊

The hotel was excellent. Clean and modern. Room was spacious, excellent amenities and beds comfortable. Room had a mini fridge that could be used for drinks etc, kettle and coffee machine with coffee pods, hot chocolate and tea which was replenished everyday. Housekeeping was excellent, room cleaned everyday. Pool was fabulous, good size despite being on the rooftop. Lots of loungers with umbrellas for shade. Pool bar had great cocktails and snacks. Staff were friendly and efficient. Despite being in St Julian’s, the hotel was quiet at night. Plenty of shops and food options around the hotel. Beach was just a 2 minute walk. Big supermarket, 5 minute walk. Would highly recommend.
