I love this location and hotel. Staff were amazing. Cleaning crew were amazing twice a day. One think I want to tell pool is not part of hotel and you get some disappointment where you can be in pool area.

Sebastian, 6-night trip

Lovely views. Good location for short journey to Valletta. Very nice hotel although pool is not solely for the hotel and is a separate spa so have to book sunbeds to use although it all went quite smoothly.

Love this hotel, it’s new and clean and modern. Conveniently located by the biggest shopping mall in Malta, minutes away from ferry to Vletta, many food options right around the corner. Great spa and gym and swimming pool, absolutely love iy

10/10 Excellent

Amazing stay in our Premium sea view room. The hotel facilties were incredible from the Spa to the Gym. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
Ryan, 6-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The fortina was just the best, the staff on arrival were the best, informative, polite, courteous and couldn't do enough, the room was fabulous with an amazing view across the harbour to Valletta, the food was amazing, if I was to have any negative points it would be for the hotel not to advertise that it has an out door pool....it doesn't, it has a very small share in an out door pool, that you have to book a slot at the day before. But when you get to the pool you are told which beds you can have, no sea views, all at the back etc. priority is given to people not staying at the hotel for a premium 50euros per lounger

YUFI, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Very clean with good rooms and location. Staff at reception and breakfast friendly and helpful. Not so much at the spa/pool and the gym was closed all week which was a shame. Music too loud at the pool - not very relaxing. Coffee at breakfast disgusting- surely an essential part of a good hotel breakfast.
Kate Mara, 6-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Barceló Fortina is a well located hotel with excellent facilities, including an excellent gym, spa, restaurants, and access to a lido with beautiful views of Valetta. Well located in Sliema close to restaurants, shops and ferry terminals. The room was large and very comfortable.

Violetta, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I highly recommend this place. The location is excellent, with a great selection of nearby restaurants, including Tora, Manta, Opa!, and Chophouse and a near by Mall. It's also just a five-minute walk to the ferry terminal with easy access to Valletta.The staff were exceptionally professional and welcoming. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-maintained. The gym was impressive, offering modern equipment, fitness classes, and personal training options.The pool area was another highlight, providing a relaxing atmosphere and stunning views of Valletta.
Rogsilenia Del Valle Fernandez, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent stay in Sliema, Malta 🇲🇹

We had an amazing room with a beautiful view of the capital of Malta 🇲🇹 Valletta. We were on top 17th floor. It was very nice to have use of a private gym on the premises and also use of a pool day club across street which is connected underground as well called Manta. But you must ask for the towels from the front desk and reserve a daybed ahead of time. If not you can always go for drinks 🍹 which is a good deal 2 for 1 for a couple of hours daily right when the sunset is occurring.
