Mercury Tower

The rooftop view was spectacular, and the show about Malta and its history was great. I came with my daughter, and she enjoyed the whole experience too.

I've spent three months here, first in Mercury Suites and then in Mercury Tower, so my view comes from a longer stay. The balconies are very spacious, the views are lovely, and most apartments are finished nicely. The receptionists and wider staff team were great whenever we had a question or problem. Noise is the big drawback, especially on the lower floors. There are partygoers outside and inside, plus construction work six days a week. The pools are pleasant but too small for the number of residents across the Tower and Suites, so don't count on finding a sun lounger in summer. On the 26th floor, the water turns cold after about five minutes. That's manageable in summer, but not in winter. Whether it's a good fit depends on the season and why you're visiting. Expect upper middle-class standards by Western measures, rather than luxury. If you need sleep, ask for a higher-floor apartment.

The plaza is lovely, with beautiful sculptures, and there's plenty of shopping and places to eat around it. We saw Odyssey and had a brilliant 4D flight through Malta. The staff were friendly and knew their stuff. Afterward, we went up to the viewing platform and had a drink at the bar. I'd definitely recommend visiting.

We were two couples visiting the top-floor viewing areas for cocktails and the sights. Walk-up entry costs 20 euros each as of January 2026, which isn't cheap, and the seating area is also for smoking and vaping. Still, the views over Malta from its tallest building are incredible. There's an opaque section of floor where you can look down more than 100 metres to street level. The cocktails are fine, service decent, and the views are hard to beat.
