11th Malta Bridge Festival 

9th – 16th April 2005

 

Rates and Schedule

 

The event will take place at the Preluna Hotel in Sliema. This is a mid range 4 star hotel overlooking the seafront promenade of Tower Road, Sliema. Most rooms have been refurbished but we suggest that the upgrade to superior sea view rooms is very worthwhile, as these rooms have large balconies and stunning views.

 

The hotel has offered us an excellent Half Board package, but those who prefer to eat out will receive a small Lm14 discount. This makes the HB deal very attractive, even if you opt to eat out at one of the many local restaurants on a few evenings.

 

Master Points and Green Points will be awarded for the Swiss Teams and Festival Pairs

 

Rates are per person for 7 nights stay excluding flights (extra nights pro rata).
