Planning on going this year, can you guys recommend which are the best hotels to stay as the expo is a bit remote from what it seems? I would like to be in civilization and in same time not be forced to pay tons on taxi?

I would choose for one of the hotels in St. Julian's. Dragonara is my favorite (nice location, nice casino, great rooms, great service, good breakfast), but there are more good hotels around there. It depends a bit on what you're looking for. The area around the conference is not very exciting.

To go to the conference you could also use the bus. Takes much more time than with the taxi, but it's cheaper.

The Palace , 15m~ away from the event location.

Yeah its hard to get a nice balance of price vs location : Ive been looking at airbnb but not sure of the best area to spend the week?

Id be interested to get any insight too.

Totally depends on what are your interests. If you want to go to casinos, nightlife, pubs, restaurants, etc. I would opt for St. Julians. Everything there at 5 mins walking.

But if you don't like those things, it doesn't make too much sense to stay there.

Funny to see that Government and Sigma in Malta are still pushing iGaming full force. Meanwhile banks on Malta are closing accounts of genuine affiliates and media companies that work in iGaming... wonder how long either one can keep this up?!

Nightlife - St. Julians Paceville (or Bugibba/Qawra)
"City"with most gaming companies in case you have appointments outside Sigma - Sliema
Historical cities - Mdina/Valletta
Beaches - Golden Bay/Ghadira Bay
Absolute silence - Gozo

Bus to Sigma from anywhere - next to nothing
Taxi from all former mentioned places to Sigma - next to nothing (use Taxify app, DO NOT USE white taxi's, they will rip your wallet to pieces)

Hotels in Malta - ridiculously overpriced (London, Paris, Amsterdam are cheaper...)

I would love to meet you all!

They ran coaches to/from the Official Hotel last year. No idea if they are planning on doing the same.

Best way is to share a taxi. There will be people going from most major hotels to the conference and back, just ask someone if you can share a ride.

**SuperiorShareConnie** · 25 October 2018, 11:14 am

Hello nwalker,
Thank you for the information. This will be my first time going to Malta.
Sharing a ride is a good idea and maybe a good conversation on the way.

Cheers,

Connie

St Julians is the best location in my eyes as this is going to be closer to the evening activities. I still am undecided in attending.

one could argue what civilization looks like. to me, St Julians is all but that

**Cardy007** · 8 November 2018, 9:50 am

Yeah I heard from my local DJ mate that St Julians is the party place and close to something called Paceville

**must** · 8 November 2018, 11:55 am

Oh, about that: https://lovinmalta.com/news/local/th...bout-paceville

**SuperiorShareConnie** · 9 November 2018, 2:22 pm

I will be there from Nov 28th to Nov 30th.
Looking forward to meet you all!

Do you want to get sloshed with free drinks?
Are you looking for the usual LAC stripper booths?
In the hope, a tarty bunny girl will grope at you later the evening during the many after show self-high-five group-sessions?

Then it's o.k., because perhaps you are doing this several times a year ... or dreaming about it.

But f you are interested in a fine and decent women, which is not surrounded by half-naked promotion bimbos and will not escort you in the hotel room for a good website position but will give you the portion of seriousness and true kindness you have been waiting for, then visit Maria during Buffalo-free-Sigma conference, the only event you need, at Stand BR210.

Nah. It's all about common sense:

- watch your drink and don't drink a drink you've left for minutes alone (drink it just at once)
- don't get involved in fights or drug deals;
- don't provoke bouncers;
- if hot women (or women trying to act they are) approach you on the street, it's not because you're their prince on the white horse, but because they think they can take some money from you in a "gentleman club".

Never had any issue there and so have 99% of the visitors there. But if you're looking for problem, certainly it's an area where you'll find them easily.
