    Location and Access: Dragonara Casino, nestled in St. Julians, Malta, is an easy 20-minute drive or a 45-minute bus ride from the international airport. Taxis cost around 20 Euros, while the bus offers a cheaper option at around 3 Euros. Dragonara's serene location on the peninsula, away from St. Julians' bustling nightlife, offers a less crowded atmosphere. For a more family-friendly and cleaner stay, consider basing yourself in Valletta, which provides easy bus access to explore the entire island.

    Game Options: The poker scene at Dragonara Casino is limited in terms of hours and variety. Games kick off in the evenings, with a few cash tables and small tournaments. The poker offering might seem modest compared to Malta's reputation as a poker hotspot, but it suits the island's population. Cash games mainly feature 1/2 euro and 2/5 euro no-limit Texas Hold'em. While tournaments are small, they are affordable and cater to novices.

    Service and Experience: Finding the poker room within the casino can be a bit tricky, but once discovered, it's a hidden gem. Situated in an indoor patio with panoramic windows overlooking a breathtaking Maltese bay, the poker room offers a unique and stunning ambiance. Staff, including dealers and floor managers, are professional and well-dressed. I enjoyed the complimentary food and non-alcoholic drinks which were available.

    Rake and Rewards: The cash table rake is reasonable at 4%, but the high cap of 15 Euros can eat into big pots. Tournaments have a more challenging rake structure, particularly for low buy-ins. There are no jackpots or high hand bonuses, but tips for staff are appreciated. Despite the rake, Dragonara's charm compensates for it.

    Dragonara Casino, despite its limited poker offerings, showcases what can be achieved with attention to detail. It offers a delightful and picturesque setting, excellent service, and a touch of class. While not a poker mecca, it's an ideal spot for a night of poker or a short visit to Malta.

    Good size of casino, good slot machines, smoking and non smoking areas, and that was the only casino that offered us free drinks while you play.

    Spring '24 Poker Tournament was real fun and well run.
    Doesn't get all five stars because a very few of the bar and cash Poker staff were uptight and bit rude. Otherwise staff were really good especially door staff.

    I had my son's birthday party at Multimaxx Hal Qormi and we were truly satisfied with the service provided. Children really enjoyed playing all the interractive games and the food was also delicious. I would deffinitely recommend this venue to others!

    The go carts are very well organised and the food at the restaurant is awesome! Shout out to the superb service by Nicholas at the go carts and Ali and Sagar at the restaurant. Super nice and helpful. You will see us again.

    Booking a court is problematic. The reliability of booking the court with a coach is a disaster.
    On my first lesson the coach turned up 15 minutes late without an apology, but he did have a lame excuse about their being some confusion from the organiser.
    Second lesson was ok.
    On the third lesson he didn’t show at all. I waited more than 5 minutes, then another coach turns up with another student. I asked where is my coach and he told me that he understood he’s now on holiday. I couldn’t believe it. I emailed the organiser (Chris Cutugno, who is apparently also the owner of this business) He wrote back about 2 hours later and stated that my coach had to travel at short notice back to Serbia.
    He then followed up by saying he didn’t think would attend the lesson.
    Why wouldn’t I attend the lesson?
    Why didn’t he inform me in advance or arrange another coach or lesson?
    Suffice to say, I cancelled all 4 remaining lessons. I could not rely on this service, I had planned my 15 minute walk from my hotel in order to be on time to attend these lessons.
    They have no idea what it means to communicate with customers.
    It’s obviously a new business without a proper plan.
    Bookings were made via email, they never supplied a phone number for immediate contact for emergency cases, and they don’t bother to inform you even when they had prior knowledge that the coach was unavailable even though I had supplied my contact details in ever correspondence.
    Be aware, the tennis court pictures on their official website are far from the reality. They were obviously photoshopped or taken many years ago, when the courts were new.
    The four photos you see on TripAdvisor are ones I took. The courts are shabby and dirty, the condition of the courts are rundown especially the metal barriers between the courts and around the court area, although the playing surface is playable.

    My friends and I were enjoying ourselves bowling, but when it came to the second round and my friend and I (who aren’t so good at bowling) paid shared 1 round between us, the staff were constantly watching and coming up to us. We found that very disrespectful considering we made it clear to the receptionist from before and had the other 5people pay the standard fee. Such a pity!

    this place surely has 50 other covid-19 variants hidden in it. no wonder why children feel so sick after entering the venue. the ball pit feels so slimy and there's mold everywhere. management is also rude and treat their staff and clients like crap. don't work here or even visit.

    The Mercury Shopping District is a truly exceptional experience. Whether it's shopping, dining or entertainment, it is has something for everyone. Whether you're flying through the Island's history at the Odyssey, racing a go cart, dining in one of the many restaurants or shopping, Mercury will surely captivate you.
