I wasn't sure whether to go for the Diplomat or not as the reviews on here and fairly split - As is this one. I was on the 7th Floor with a partial sea view (I wasn't bothered with a sea view) I had a double room (which was huge) with an ensuite which had 2 sinks and a bath... More

We stayed here for two nights at the end of May 2013 before going up to Golden Bay. We had a very clean room, the whole hotel was clean and in good condition. It is in a great location for an evening stroll for a drink or meal. The hotel food we found to be very nice and reasonably priced.... More

During my last stay in Malta, I stayed at the Diplomat Hotel, Sliema. I prefer staying at Sliema due to its prime location. The Diplomat is by the sea, centrally located, but the area is not too noisy or busy.I found the hotel clean, the service reliable. The best word to describe it: convenient. I am fully satisfied with the... More

We booked a room for three at the 7th floor towards the sea. Wonderful sea view and all the buses stopped just outside the Hotel. The hotel service was good and gentle. A tasty breakfast was served and was included in the price for the hotel. The hotel is situated in the centre of both Sliema and St Julians and... More

I really liked this hotel, except that it is not a good place to stay during a heat wave. The airconditioning is so weak that you'll need to leave the window open. The only problem with this is that if you want a lovely sea view, you'll also be facing a busy road which runs between the sea and the... More

I don't know where the diplomat gets off calling itself a 4* hotel on some websites, because if it just called itself what it is, a 2 or 2.5*, it would all make sense. Anyways, an old hotel but generally clean with a spacious room. Some irritations like a burnt light bulb and a mattress with zero spring left. Anyways... More

Great location with easy access to public transportation. The Hotel is old and this is why it comes with a good price. Staff is friendly and breakfast was OK. Free wifi available in the room and common areas. If you don't have high expectations and you need something affordable to stay it is a good value for money. You can't... More

The rooms certainly can get some renovation - old furniture, everything in the room feels and looks old - although, the mattresses seem to be new because this was one of the most comfortable beds I've slept on recently :D If we put the need of room renovation aside, everything was excellent in the hotel! Very clean, daily cleaning services... More

Definately it's not the most luxury hotel in Malta, but its location and staff make it worth choosing! Gorgeous sea view! Just behind the beach! The hotel is located near a lot of bus stops through which you could easily reach almost every interesting point at the island - the historical monuments, the old capital, the sandy beaches, plenty of...

We lived in the sea-view room for 10 days in May. Room is nice, but it is so noisy! Noise from cars. sea and wind! especially wind, almost windows are shaking. You can't even sleep or watch TV. Breakfast is average, but it's good that they have fruits. Pool is not heated, so it's meaningless, not very many sunbeds, some... More
