The hotel looks straight onto Spinola Bay, and its pool and sun terrace sit above the water.
Hotel, St. Julian's. Meridian Dispatch.
By taxi or by bus. The hotel is about 9.5 km by road from Malta International Airport, and Malta Public Transport's Airport Direct route TD2 runs daily as a circular route between the airport and St Julian's.
Yes. The hotel has its own free, secure indoor car park for guests, with limited spaces given subject to availability. The drive from Malta International Airport takes about 25 minutes by road along the northeast coast.
Check-in is from three in the afternoon and check-out is by noon. The hotel does not offer early check-in, but Café Juliani, its all-day café, is open from seven in the morning every day, including Sundays and public holidays.
No. The pool is open daily for hotel guests only. The rooftop lounge, though, opens to the public every evening during the summer season, with views over Spinola Bay.
Yes. Café Juliani serves breakfast daily from seven to eleven in the morning, with brunch until one, and guests who would rather stay in can have breakfast brought to their room.
Standard Rooms measure 22 square metres, Deluxe Sea View Rooms 25 and Designer Suites Sea View 45. The first two take up to two guests and the suites up to three.
The hotel describes itself as a recently renovated townhouse. Directly in front of the door, the LOVE sculpture overlooks the bay. Its capital letters are spelt backwards on purpose, so that they read the right way round in the water's reflection.
The rooms come in three kinds, and the view decides between them. Standard rooms sleep two, without a sea view. Deluxe Sea View rooms, also for two, are a little larger and add a balcony over Spinola and St Julian's Bays.
Designer Suites Sea View are the largest, close to twice the size of a Deluxe room, and sleep up to three, also with a balcony. Spa Royale, on level -1, offers beauty and wellness treatments.
At Hotel Juliani, rooms are ready from 3pm, and guests leave by 12 noon. From the airport, about 9.5 km away by road, take Malta Public Transport's Airport Direct TD2, which runs daily to St Julian's, or give a taxi 25 St George's Road.
Breakfast runs at Café Juliani from seven to eleven, with brunch until one, or you can have it brought to your room. The café stays open all day until eleven at night, and Zest, the hotel's Asian restaurant on the first floor, serves dinner daily from half past six to eleven.
The pool runs from ten to seven every day and is for hotel guests only. In summer the rooftop lounge opens to the public from eight in the evening, after the pool closes. Guests also have a fitness centre.
Leave the car parked for dinner: most of St Julian's restaurants and bars sit in the town's central areas, all within walking distance. Portomaso Marina is about a seven-minute walk away, on the far side of Paceville.
For a longer stroll, follow the seaside promenade to Balluta Bay and carry on into Sliema, which the promenade joins to St Julian's.
Nearest first, all within 13 minutes on foot from the door.

The town
St Julian's wraps round three small bays, Balluta, Spinola and St George's, joined by a promenade along the water. Portomaso's marina and the streets of Paceville fill the point between the last two.
Choose it for nights out, and sleep at the Balluta end if you want quiet ones.
