Let me first start by saying that Solana Hotel & Spa looks very inviting from the front. It has a really nice lobby and is located within walking distance to a lot of restaurants and there are busses that take you to St. Paul's Bay, Gozo and other touristy places just steps from the hotel which I liked. All rooms also have a balcony which is nice to sit outside and dry your clothes, enjoy the weather, etc. Nice rooftop. What I did not like was the horrible odor in my room when I first checked in, which I later was told that is it was the wood panel in the room, since it was recently remodeled. It was an easy solution because I just opened the balcony door everyday and eventually I could not smell it. Also housekeeping kept on forgetting to clean my room even though I would leave a sign saying to clean it and would even see them in the hallway and assume that since they saw me leaving, they would clean it. I had to keep complaining to the front desk and they did get them to clean it, but it was evident that housekeeping did a lackluster job and did not clean the floors or anything. Also, the wifi in my room was terrible, I am not sure if it was because I was located on the far end of the floor. The room (2205) looked like they recently converted it into a room so maybe that's also why housekeeping kept on forgetting about it. I did like that there was a gym, but the ventilation was poor as it smelled moldy. Unfortunately, I would not stay here again based on this experience.

This was my first time staying on the north part of the island. Excellent access to Gozo and Popeye. The room was spacious and breakfast always had a variety of options. The weather wasn't too great while I was there, but there were indoor pools, sauna, and a (tiny) gym. There were always people in the lobby having a drink and sometimes there was live music. The service was also excellent. Kis (at check-in) was wonderful and explained all of the amenities that that hotel & spa had to offer. If I wanted a relaxing weekend, I would definitely consider staying here again.

Friendly and speedy check-in. Clean and comfortable room. Did not use the buffet or restaurant as visiting friends, but plenty of choices for eating both inside hotel and locally. Located in heart of Mellieħa, short walk to bus stops for routes all across the islands.
