Mellieha Hotels with Wifi

"My wife and I recently completed our second stay at the Solana Hotel & Spa, having previously spent a full month here in May 2022. This time we stayed for 18 nights beginning May 28 and booked two rooms, as another family member joined us. We requested the same studio room we had previously, along with a standard room next door. The studio had been nicely updated with a new TV, mattress, wardrobe, and kitchenette. The bathroom was modern and well designed, with an excellent walk-in rain shower, handheld wand, consistent water pressure, and reliable hot water. We did, however, encounter two housekeeping issues. One nightstand drawer clearly needed cleaning, having apparently been overlooked when the room was prepared. More concerning was a persistent foul odor coming from the kitchenette cupboard area. Although the odor could mostly be contained by keeping the cupboard doors closed, it was never fully resolved despite multiple requests to management. This should be investigated, as other guests might reasonably find it unacceptable. Our balcony overlooked the main street with views of the church and the sea beyond. Despite being above the street, noise was rarely an issue, and we enjoy this location because it lets us experience the atmosphere of Mellieħa while being directly across from our favorite restaurant, Ta' Peter. The hotel has expanded dramatically since our last visit. The enlarged lobby and Bellini's restaurant are attractive additions, while the adults-only rooftop infinity pool provides a quieter alternative to the family pool and bar. A new sixth-floor social area with games and reading spaces is also a welcome addition. Overall, we had another enjoyable stay, but there were several issues management should address. One involved breakfast. One of our rooms was booked and prepaid with breakfast for two adults, but because only one person occupied the room, the hotel provided breakfast for only one guest. In effect, 18 prepaid breakfasts were forfeited without any credit or alternative, which was disappointing. The second issue involved parking. On three occasions, roadworks blocked access to the underground garage, requiring us to park on the street overnight. Since we had prepaid for parking, I expected those nights to be refunded automatically. Instead, I had to request a credit, which seemed to require unnecessary management discussion. A €10 credit should simply be issued whenever prepaid parking cannot be provided. Bellini's restaurant now easily accommodates the hotel's larger capacity, and the breakfast buffet was excellent with a wide variety of fresh, well-prepared food. The only frustration was the coffee service. There was always a long queue at the machine near the buffet. After asking a manager, I learned there were three additional machines elsewhere in the restaurant, but there was no signage directing guests to them. A few simple signs would eliminate much of the waiting. The underground parking garage also needs improvement. During our 18-night stay, we encountered four occasions when no security guard was present to open the entrance, leaving us waiting outside for up to 30 minutes. The posted security number often went unanswered, and the front desk was unable to help. For a paid service, guests should not have to wait outside late at night or make repeated phone calls just to access the garage. Despite these criticisms, I would gladly stay here again and continue recommending the Solana Hotel & Spa. Its location is outstanding, the accommodations are comfortable, the facilities have improved considerably, and it offers excellent value. I hope management views these comments as constructive feedback from a returning guest who has spent more than six weeks at the hotel over two visits. Addressing these issues would make an already very good hotel even better."

"Excellent hotel with free parking, conveniently located near the island's most beautiful beaches. The room was clean and spacious, and the buffet breakfast offered a wide variety of options. You can also have dinner at a reasonable price. Both the indoor pool with spa and the outdoor pool are lovely and very functional, and the gym, though small, is perfectly adequate. There's also a nice indoor bar and a terrace perfect for an aperitif. Overall, a great experience; I highly recommend it and would definitely return!"

"The hotel left a very positive impression. The location is excellent, close to the sea and the promenade with many restaurants. The room was clean and had everything we needed. Check-in was very easy thanks to the code system — quick and convenient. The staff was always available and ready to help. Breakfast is simple but sufficient: yogurt, fruits and juices are provided in the room, which is very convenient. During the season, there is a rooftop pool, which is very atmospheric and offers a nice view. The spa was not exactly what we expected, but still quite pleasant and a good place to relax. Overall, a great place for a спокойный отдых. We would definitely recommend it! ⸻ Если хочешь чуть более “гладко” последнюю строку: 👉 Overall, a great place for a relaxing stay.

"Sensational ✨🫶🏻🍽️❤️❤️🌊☀️🔥 Solo female traveller – I absolutely LOVE this hotel! It’s super convenient because everything is here: beautiful swimming pools, and off the main pool there is a gated staircase down to the private beach with bars, restaurants and water sports. It’s a big hotel, but you don’t have to walk far to the pool or beach – it’s all very compact and easy. Sai at the beach restaurant is very kind and friendly – wonderful service from him. Henri at breakfast is an amazing Maltese man who is trained to a high standard, which is evident. I can imagine he would be very good at training new staff members. His son also lives near me in the UK, which was funny 😂 Elvie on reception is truly beautiful inside and out – so helpful and kind. There is a bus at the end of the road which makes the whole of Malta accessible. To ride the bus is so cheap – €2.50 – and to take a taxi the same distance (around 30 mins) is between €19–35. Download the Bolt taxi app and try to book your taxi in advance as you can get it cheaper. Prices on the app go up at peak times – one minute it might show €19 and then 10 minutes later €35 for the same journey. Simply wait 15 minutes and check again and it will usually have gone down. There are lots of nice walks nearby and other restaurants at that end of the road by the bus stop, plus another beach café on the public beach if you get bored of the hotel restaurants (which are amazing 🤩). The sauna here is fantastic – it gets really hot and is big. The gym is smaller and simple but has everything you will need. The supermarket on site is basic and had no fruit 🍇, so I would take some fruit from the breakfast buffet for later in the day. The games room is good – great pool table, table tennis, darts and card games. I picked this hotel for the private beach 🏖️ and I’m definitely glad I did. I visited the Hilton in St Julian’s and it was nice, but nothing beats this sea view – it’s incredible. I’ll be back 😂🫶🏻❤️❤️🙏🏻✨😊 Thank you Radisson!"

"Our room was spacious clean and with a fantastic view. Plenty of pools. And a gym sauna and a excellent breakfast buffet everything and more. The juice could be better but that's the only minor issue everything else was spot on"

"The hotel felt quite old and outdated. The pillows had an unpleasant smell, and the bed was very firm, which made it difficult for me to sleep comfortably. The location was also inconvenient, requiring about a 1.5-hour bus ride to reach the city center. The long journey often left me feeling dizzy. Breakfast was disappointing, as most of the food was very oily. In addition, there was very little around the hotel in terms of restaurants, shops, or attractions, making the area feel isolated. Overall, I did not find the stay comfortable or convenient."

"We stayed at the Luna Holiday Complex over Christmas and had a pleasant overall experience. We were self-catering, so I can’t comment much on the food, although we did order a pizza once and it was very nice. There was quite a bit of renovation work going on during our stay, and unfortunately the rooftop pool was closed. I had been really looking forward to using it, so that was a bit disappointing. However, the downstairs family pool was open and we made good use of that. Our apartment was spacious, comfortable, and well maintained, with regular housekeeping throughout our stay. The complex felt very festive over Christmas, which added to the atmosphere. The location was great for us. Scenic, close to the sea, and in a quieter part of Malta, which is exactly what we were looking for. We preferred being by the coast rather than high up in the village, and this worked perfectly. Overall, a nice stay with good accommodation and a lovely location."

"Very quiet, cozy hotel with very friendly staff. The room is good and clean. Kettle, tea, coffee in the room. Shampoo, shower gel, soap, hair dryer. Close to the sea. It takes about an hour to get to Valletta by bus. Wonderful hotel and service! Thanks administrator ( resections)😍"

"Overall clean and friendly place ㅇ Advantages - Close to Gojo Island - Quite clean and quiet place - Breakfast was better because it was not a buffet. It's a breakfast served ~ Besides, there are three choices, breakfast for starters! Fantastic !! ㅇ Disadvantages - A place too hard to shower because of the bathroom without shower booth - I told you in advance that I gave you a room with a shower booth, but I couldn't find it anywhere when I booked. - A little difficult to check in if you go late in the evening. You have to read the QR of the explanation at the door and go to the restaurant in front of the hostel to get the check-in envelope. It was a good place to stay for these shortcomings"
