Ciao Dave, I personally think it irrellavent what the tour operators offer, best thing to do is sort your own flights and accomodation and travel this way to Malta, it's generally cheaper and much more rewarding, anyway I'm off for a bucket of water, 2 sugar lumps and a carrot, got to take a karrozini full of fat sweaty americans from Pinto Wharf up to Xemxija.

Ciao 4 now

British Airways (GB) have currently got some very nice priced flights to Malta for anyone who wishes to book their own holiday. I've just booked four flights with them for between £99.00 and £112.00 p.p

Hello Sliema2,

If your flying from M/cr then during those months we may well be on the same flights :)

Hello happychef, that is my point I surpose the nearest thing to a holiday with no kids and not many zimmers would be a Thomson Gold holiday hotel. Hi Sliema2, I do like to do my own thing when it comes to holidays but the tour firms do make it a bit easier and take a bit of the hassle out of the getting there, although I still like to do all my own trips and outings useing local transport or car hire where possible, and by the way my the element went out, in my new job as the blue light on the harbour wall so they dismissed me and sent me to work in the stone quarry for five years hard labour after that I am to deported to Cominotto and await my fate, they also tell me that if I am good they will not put me down the Oubliette.

Hi alan, not been to this hotel but there is a bit about it on
http://www.starwebmalta.com

If you click on accommodation at the top and then on the one with Sliema on it you should find the Roma and then click on its web page.

Hi crazychef & dave, we popped in to The Hotel Roma earlier this year to check it out as a possible place to stay for one of our diy holidays, the rooms seemed ok fairly basic but clean with all you would need including tv, the position of the hotel is quite good aswell it is set at a slight angle off Triq-it-Torri (Tower Road0 a few hundred metres away from The Preluna very close to Ghard-id-dud and overlooking Qui-si-Sana, I would imagine that if you had a sea view room then the views would be quite good looking over Tigne towards the Fort St Elmo area of Valletta, hope this helps.

Regards
Sliema2

Bad news about the Roma, they are shutting as a hotel end of November, they will re:open next year as specialist accomodation for foreign language students, oh well at least if they are all crammed in to there then they won't be annoying genuine holiday makers with there often irritating pranks and disgusting habits.
