1926 Le Soleil Hotel & SPA

1926 Le Soleil Hotel & SPA

8/10 Good
"Stayed in mid October for a week. Purchased the signature suite. Pros: spa massages and facials were excellent, staff was always friendly and did their best to help, breakfast was good although always the same, rooftop pool was excellent. You can walk to the marina and shops easily. Cons: Always Book Ahead, They use an app for this when you get there and the staff seems new to it right now. The beds are stiff as a brick. Some prefer this? The views in pictures are a bit misleading but that’s marketing for ya. A LOT of constant construction around but not much noise? Sea view is not the sea view more like a sea angle. As a hotel I would give it a 8.5, as a honeymoon spot probably a 7"

"Nice updated and clean hotel. Beds are a little firm and you need to bring a top sheet as in Europe they don't use top sheets just duvet and bottom sheet. Concierge staff were amazing helping us with whatever we need. Stayed for 2 weeks so took advantage of the breakfast buffet. They had a good variety of foods to choose from. If ordering lunch or supper was a bit pricey so we ate mostly at restaurants around the hotel. Lots to choose from as this hotel is in a nice location 25 minutes walking to Silema or the other way Balluta Bay area. General manager took time to meet and talk with guests."
