Maritim Antonine Hotel & Spa, Malta
Maritim Antonine Hotel & Spa,
George Borg Olivier Street, Mellieha, MLH 1021
This
is a beautiful 4* hotel at the bottom of the hill in the main town of Mellieha
in the north of the island of Malta. It is on the direct route to the Gozo
ferry terminal so is easy to get to. Reception staff are excellent, very
welcoming and professional. Although check-in is not until 4.00pm, the luggage
room is available when you arrive, and you have a voucher to get free towels
for use of pool facilities while waiting for your room.
You also get a
complimentary soft drink or coffee when you arrive, so a definite encouragement
to go up to 9th floor roof bar and pool – a perfect spot to soak up
the sun on comfy sofas or look out to the bay in the distance.
It
is a fascinating building, clean and modern décor, with a tunnel under the road
to the opposite A Wing. We were very impressed as this is a seamless transition
from one block to the other without feeling like you are being sent to the
second-class bit! This was clearly not the case as the rooms and public areas
are comfortable, with modern furnishings and fittings and lots of
paintings/sculptures by Maltese artists.
We
sampled the buffet for dinner, in Le Jardin Restaurant, and were very impressed
by the food and service particularly with a special guest price of €14.50 each. We do like local Green Label white wine
and can always rely on it being an excellent wine at a good price. There is an
extensive selection of foods for breakfast as you would expect, buffet style,
and the option to sit outside in the warm September morning sunshine – a
perfect location.
