The Preluna Hotel

What makes it special

Sun loungers and a bar and grill sit beside the Beach Club pools. Every guest can use the pool area and lido at no charge.

Scuba diving is offered all year round, while watersports at the club follow its summer season, weather permitting.

Indoors, the Feel Good Wellness Spa and Gym has an indoor pool, sauna, hot tub, steam rooms and gym, all included for guests. Treatments cost extra, and towels at the spa are free.

Beyond the Triton and the two Sakura rooms, the hotel runs Ichiban Japanese Burgers, which keeps the same hours as the Sakura lounge. The Skyroom Cocktail Bar and Grill opens from six in the evening until eleven.

Visiting

From quarter past seven to quarter past ten each day, breakfast is served at the Triton Restaurant. The same room reopens for lunch from half past twelve to two, and for dinner from half past six to quarter past nine.

For lighter meals, Cafe Sakura is open from seven in the morning until midnight. Sakura Japanese Cuisine and Lounge opens from half past eleven in the morning until eleven at night.

Between meals, the spa and gym open from six in the morning to quarter to ten at night on weekdays. At weekends and on public holidays the hours run from eight to quarter to six.

Tips

The closest bus stop, Chalet, is directly outside the hotel and has connections across Malta. If you are driving, ask for parking when you book: the hotel provides it on request.

Travelling as a family of four, book one of the two-bedroom rooms. The Two-Bedroom Family Balcony Room, the Two-Bedroom Sea View Family Room and the Two-Bedroom Sea View Family Suite each take up to four guests.

The hotel stands on Sliema Front, the promenade that runs along the coast. For Valletta, take the Sliema Ferry from The Strand: it crosses every day from early morning into the evening, and until late at night in summer.
