Really lovely hotel, our room was amazing, the breakfast buffet had loads of variety. Easy to find dinners on the rooftop pool and nice to have the option of an adult only quieter pool. Staff were really helpful, friendly and attentive. Great location for the old town of Mellieha, a bit of a steep climb for the lower beach area, but plenty of bolt cars if you don’t need them too late.

Overall it was a nice property. The rooftop pool was enjoyable, the breakfast buffet had plenty of variety and the room was nice - however even though we booked a room with a view, the view was very limited. Also we made an error and booked 3 nights rather than 2. The property did not give us a refund and were not even flexible w us for even a credit for the spa or restaurant so that was disappointing.

We were very happy with our stay at the Solana and feel we picked the right hotel given the options that were available. The breakfast was really good with a huge choice, well laid out in a spacious restaurant. They were very good with their allergy information which was important to us for being gluten free. The pool area was fantastic, the bar was great serving drinks and snacks to the pool side. Hotel towels were available to use. The choice of the hotels restaurants was great and the staff were very friendly. The hotel was clean, we did have a couple of cockroaches, to be expected in the climate but it was not a problem and the hotel dealt with this issue and followed up. Overall a lovely stay - thank you
