Beautiful hotel, great service , especially by Anu a polite, friendly member of staff

We had a very good stay at the Maritim Antonine Hotel & Spa. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff, and the hotel was very clean throughout. The food was also good, with plenty of choice, and the rooftop pool was a real plus, especially in the evening — a lovely place to relax and enjoy the views. The outdoor pool was also nice, although it can get a little lively with children running around. The rooftop pool was definitely our favourite for a more relaxing atmosphere. We really liked the Mellieħa location. It's quieter and feels less touristy than some other parts of Malta, while still being a great base for exploring the island. It is a little further from Valletta, but this wasn't a problem at all as Malta's public transport is excellent, with regular and convenient bus connections. We didn't have a car during our stay and managed to get around very easily. Our only disappointment was the unclear information about the pool opening time. The hotel information sheet said the pool opened at 10am, but this actually referred to the pool bar, not the pool itself. We could have enjoyed the pool earlier in the morning before heading out, so clearer information would have been appreciated. Overall, a very good hotel with excellent service, friendly staff and a great location. We would happily stay again.
