Lovely new beach-side elevator building. Room was clean, modern, with a balcony overlooking the water and the nearby container ships. The sandy beach is literally steps away. The room was quiet. Public bus transportation goes almost to the doorstep. Staff is very friendly. There is a ground-level restaurant which offers a 10% discount to people who have a room in the hotel.

Watersedge is a nice clean hotel. Breakfast is good, Staff friendly. Food in restaurant is good, but is often busy and so can be a bit noisy. There are three other eating places within yards and another Angelinos across the park which is excellent. The bus stop is within yards of the hotel so access is easy and the buses reasonably punctual. The bay is sandy and water clean, the area pleasant and not too busy. We have stayed at least three times now and will be booking again in the future.

Plenty of R& R at Water's Edge

Efffective and efficient are two words to describe the staff. Hotel next to beautiful beach and bus terminal for buses to Valetta and airport etc. Tickets 2euros 50 and valid for two hours. Breakfast on Level one, good choice and restaurant Level 0. Ate here most nights. Godd promenade walks and places of interest -depending on your stay. No hesitation recomending Water's Edge.
