Fantastic hotel, got upgraded from economy room to a suite which was lovely with a balcony overlooking the sea.

Location was great with lots of options nearby for food as well as buses to the centre of Valletta stopping very close to the hotel.

Stunning view wow, highly recommend

The hotel was good overall and offered a comfortable stay. The breakfast was excellent, with a great variety and quality. However, the sound insulation in the room could be improved, as noise from outside was clearly audible.

The gym has great potential, but much of the equipment is quite old and could really use an update. I have noticed a few new benches recently, so it seems like they might be working on improvements, which is a good sign.

The pool could also be a fantastic facility, but the hygiene standards are very poor. The water is often cloudy, with visible debris and hair floating on the surface. The steam room doesn’t even have a hose to clean the seats, which makes it feel unhygienic. I always need to take a few showers afterward just to feel clean again.

It’s disappointing because the location is convenient and the facilities could be excellent with better maintenance and cleanliness. Hopefully, management addresses these issues soon.

The staff on the front desk are usually great.

Welcome was excellent, our flight arrived late, so never got checked in until 1am. Our room was stunning, didn't realise our agent had booked us a balcony too.
Breakfast was faultless, an amazing range to choose from, great selection of juices,water & hot drinks.
We also tried the theme night evening meals( Italian & Mediterranean), €24 was great value for money.
We found the Preluna ,a great base,for catching transport to see around the Island, it was our first time, our stay was too brief, will plan it better for our next visit, to maximise our chance to appreciate what this wonderful country has to offer.
Hotel staff, friendly, helpful & supportive, I cannot praise or Thank them enough for making our stay a pleasure.
Was so busy, trying to see around the Island , we never had a chance to use anything within the hotel, such as spa, pool etc , this was our fault, we hadn't thought about, until we got home.
Thank you for reading

Spa: dry sauna was amazing, very hot but the worst problem is - there is NO way to cool down. Shower with not so cold water sucks. For such a venue it’s a shame!!
Also no more infrared sauna :-(

Just returned after 10 day holiday @ Preluna hotel. Great location with excellent facilities.
Staff friendly, helpful + efficient.
Selection of food good + well presented.
Rooms overlooking sea are fabulous - housekeeping excellent - everywhere very clean.
Highly recommend.

Not knowing where to stay in Malta this was a pretty good start. Its not in the centre of the Niteclub and bar district, but in a great spot between there and the harbour.

There is a great outlook to the ocean, and walking along the esplanade is a great way to spend time, and then go for a swim or sun bake.

The Hotel staff were quite good, Erika was most helpful checking in, and the Porter Luibomiyer (spelling not sure) was also very helpful everytime I had contact with him. I had hoped to extend by they couldn't give me the same room rate so I moved hotel, which was a shame as it was a good spot.

Its close enough to walk to most places, or get a Bolt car. Rooftop bar/Restaurant was pretty good also. Would recommend to stay if you want a quieter area.

The Hotel is in good location.

Due to other reviews regarding the building work we were concerned prior to arrival. To our delight these seemed to be over exaggerated. We had an amazing time with no interference from any building work going on. The staff are amazing and so helpful. The food was varied and plentiful both at the Triton restaurant and the Beach club. The facilities In the spa and gym are to a high standard. Our room with a sea view and balcony gave spectacular sun rises. We have already booked for next year thank you Preluna.

Very kind and helpful staff, and the hotel was clean and well maintained. The breakfast was good with plenty of options. There was a small issue with my reservation upon arrival, but the staff handled it professionally and upgraded us to a better room as an apology. Great service overall!

Outstanding experience at this hotel. We came February 2026, from the UK. Upon arrival, we were offered complimentary drinks. We are allowed to check in before the stated time. All very convenient. Location is ideal, tucked away in a quiet street with access to the main streets, coastal areas. Staff are pleasant, polite and helpful. Atmosphere is very welcoming and friendly. We stayed half board and the choice of food was superb, as was the quality and variety.

We stayed in a deluxe room. Lots of space, tea and coffee included, balcony, comfortable bed. We weren't disturbed in the night by anything internal or external.

Upon checkout which is at 12 latest they offered to look after our luggage until our airport transportation arrived.

I cannot say anything more about how great our experience was - just top class service and fantastic experience overall. Highly recommended. If we do come to Malta again, we will book AX The Palace without any hesitation.

2 couples stayed 30Jan to 3Feb 2026.
Superior room with balcony. Amazing hotel and located 10 minutes walk from the sea in almost every direction. Lots to local shops, bars, restaurants nearby. Once by the seafront, you can hop onto the ferry to take you to Valletta, much faster and more scenic than the bus/taxi. Back to the hotel itself, the service from all the staff was amazing every day. Housekeeping went above and beyond cleaning the room, so much so all my toiletries were neatly lined up in the bathroom every morning. Phone charge cables etc all rolled up and put neatly on bedside cabinet. We stayed bed and breakfast. Great variety of hot and cold food, fresh fruit and juices. We asked to be located in the quiet part of the restaurant and without hesitation the table was set up. Every single of member of staff went above and beyond. Will definitely stay again.

We stayed at this hotel as a family (two adults and a small child) for one week and had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The booking process was easy, with flexible cancellation and the option for online check-in, which saved time at arrival. We were also informed in advance about the possibility of a last-minute room upgrade.

At check-in, we upgraded from a Superior Room to the Music Suite for a small additional fee, and it was absolutely worth it. The suite is spacious, bright, and truly unique, featuring two comfortable king-size beds, a large bathroom, drums and a high-quality music sound system, and a large terrace with a jacuzzi and stunning views of the city and Valletta. As a welcome, we received a bottle of champagne and a fruit platter. Housekeeping was excellent, with cleaning twice a day and daily water refills.

The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. Despite arriving before official check-in time, we were offered breakfast on the first day, luggage storage, early room preparation, and access to the pool while waiting.

Breakfast offered a good variety, although it was mostly the same each day. The hotel has several restaurants and a café for lunch and dinner.

There are two pools: a rooftop pool with sea views (not heated during our stay) and an indoor pool with a sauna and steam room, which is smaller than it appears in photos and has a capacity of 18 people. The indoor pool is also shared with guests from AX The Victoria, which could lead to more crowding during the high season, although this was not an issue during our stay.

The location is excellent—on a quiet street, yet within walking distance of public transport, supermarkets, seaside promenades, shopping centers, and stores.

Overall, the hotel met all our expectations. It is comfortable, family-friendly, and ideal for longer stays. We would gladly return and highly recommend it.

stayed at this hotel in Sliema and had a very pleasant experience overall. The room service food was excellent, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Breakfast was good and offered enough variety to start the day well.

I stayed in a deluxe room, which was very comfortable and spacious, with a lovely balcony that I really enjoyed. The location is another big advantage — it’s very convenient and offers easy access to nearby areas.

The only downside was that I visited during the New Year holiday, and the indoor swimming pool was quite small and often busy.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and pleasant place to stay in Sliema.
