"Located in the urban area of Male, the environment is very good, the boss is very good, especially passionate to the Chinese, the breakfast is more in line with the taste of the Chinese, it is difficult to find outside, so lunch and dinner are also eaten here. The view from the top of the building is wide and the scenery is beautiful. You can check it out."
"Barceló Nasandhura Malé is truly one of the best hotels in the city.
The location is excellent—very close to the airport, making transfers quick and hassle-free. The staff are incredibly helpful and welcoming, which made our stay even more comfortable.
The breakfast spread was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of high-quality options. I highly recommend this hotel, especially for families with kids—it’s clean, convenient, and family-friendly in every way."
"Before the trip, I saw that there were serious problems with transit hotels in Male, and many people fell into traps, so I paid special attention to the choice. Wu** Hotel is not far from the airport, and it takes 7 US dollars to get there by taxi (you can contact the hotel in advance for free airport pick-up). The hotel is quiet and hygienic, and there is no obvious odor (you will know what this odor is when you arrive in Male ~ unbearable ”fragrance”). The service attitude is very good! ! ! When we left the next morning, the hotel helped to call a car and paid the fare! (We took a taxi there ourselves when we went there).
In short, it is recommended to choose as a transit hotel"

"It feels quite close to Male Airport, take a taxi and cross a bridge, then shuttle in the alleys, it takes about 10-15 minutes to arrive.
The boss is a German who has lived in the Maldives for more than ten years. Two days before the arrival day, the boss Thomas began to contact us by email, including when we arrived, how much luggage, how many people and so on. After customs clearance on the day of arrival, Thomas' staff has already picked up the guests with a sign at the hotel entrance (free pick-up service is included in my reservation). He greeted us at the door before arriving at his small hotel. Very polite and caring. If there is no problem with your communication needs, the boss Thomas will give you a lot of tips for traveling on the island, such as how much local currency is appropriate to exchange, what local regulations are there, and so on.
It is very important that this hotel should be the best Thai restaurant on Male Island. Very authentic thanks to the owner Thomas should have some stories in Thailand, there is no gossip about the specifics. If you eat a meal in person, the boss will recommend and serve you personally. Don't order too much.
The next day we went to the resort island. It was a very pleasant day to stay in this hotel on Male Island. It is very convenient to buy swimming goggles, clothes, shoes and other necessary items in the hotel.
In Muslim countries, alcohol and tobacco are prohibited, you can ask the boss."
"There seem to be many B&Bs like this in Male, but they feel pretty good, but the wind is strong and the noise is not good. In fact, there is no need to stay in Male, it is better to go directly to the island after getting off the plane. The islands in the Maldives are completely different from Male. Male feels like a county town, there is no need to stay. The photo is a wider street in Male, the hotel did not take a photo."
"There were good rooms and the lady at the reception was very cooperative. And hopefully I will come to this hotel again with my family. And I recommend it to everyone in Maldives, it is a very good hotel."
"The front desk staff at the hotel was very warm and thoughtful. The room was clean and tidy. The location was good, close to the pier and tourist attractions. When I stayed there, the room price was more than 600 RMB, which was acceptable. It seemed to have increased later. 🙁
The streets in Male are too narrow, the sidewalks are very cramped, and there are motorcycles and electric vehicles everywhere, which is very depressing. Fortunately, I went to Naifaro Island the next day, and the sea and sky were immediately wide open. I recommend this island. The island is about 100 kilometers north of Male. It takes about 2 hours and 45 minutes to arrive by speedboat at 8 o'clock in the morning. It was sunny and calm that day. The speedboat can take more than 30 people. The one-way ticket booked by the hotel on the island is 60 US dollars. It is said that it only costs 40 US dollars to buy it yourself, but I don’t know where to buy it? ! ! ! This island is inhabited. The beaches and roads are very natural, with no traces of human modification. There are no high-rise buildings. There is a small supermarket, about ten restaurants, and a school. There is a big tree at the school gate, where you can cool off (it is very hot here). There is also a diving shop and a turtle nursery that treats injured turtles. Local and European environmental protection organization staff explain marine life knowledge and the impact of humans on nature. They are all sincere, so they speak very well. I stayed at the ”One Island Hotel The island is very clean and only costs more than 500 RMB. There are domestic flights for 150 USD/30 minutes and seaplanes for 250 USD/30 minutes, but they all seem to take off from Male in the afternoon. I participated in an activity to watch manta rays on the island. I set off in the morning and the speedboat drove for more than ten minutes to reach the designated sea area. I saw them immediately. They are very cute and friendly to humans. They are like children. They will circle around humans and swim to you head-on. It is strictly forbidden to touch them. They will never come here again if they are frightened. You can watch them on the boat or snorkel and play with them. It costs 70 USD per person and there are at least 2 people in a group. I spent a short time here and only experienced these. I wish you all a good time and a happy new year!"
"The apartment is new and big. The price/performance ratio is very high in Male. However, the location is a bit remote and surrounded by construction sites. It is suitable for transition, but forget it if you want to go shopping around."

"A fine option for a night, pretty good price (for Malé). Staff super nice and polite, amenities work, breakfast is continental only but does the job.
Expect all usuals of a budget hotel: room is obviously not big and basic, but again - does the job."

Amazing
CCatarina S.I had an amazing time with my boyfriend in SAii Lagoon, everyone there was so kind and lovely! They treated us like family and we felt so welcomed. During check-in I met “Jack”, he is so friendly, professional and extremely helpful! Also he speaks fluent mandarin and English which is a plus for Chinese tourists who struggles with English.
At the restaurant/pool bar “Mr. Tom Yam” we’ve met some amazing staffs there, always happy to see us and they served us with the most delicious cocktails and food!
We were always so happy to see “Eli & Sam”, they gave us the best suggestions when we couldn’t decide on what to get, you won’t be disappointed for sure whether is food or drinks!
They knew what we wanted before even telling them which was a plus!
And behind the bar you have the best mixologist called “Joseph” he made us AMAZING cocktails I swear is one of the BEST ones I’ve ever tasted so far!
They would always greet and smile.
The room was very spacious and well equipped with all essentials and fantastic view. I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel to the tourists who wants to go there.
Before leaving I met “Tharaka” she was so lovely, kind and helpful!
Everyone was so lovely, friendly and professional!
Will be back to this place soon!
Thanks for the lovely experience and the amazing team! Hope to see you all soon!

MMahdiMNWe first stayed at H78 Hotel eight years ago during our initial visit to the Maldives, and it left us with such wonderful memories that we decided to return. I’m thrilled to say that, even after all these years, H78 has not only maintained its charm but exceeded our expectations!
The staff are outstanding—their professionalism and warmth rival those of the high-end 5-star private resorts we’ve visited, yet H78 offers incredible value for the price. From check-in to check-out, the service was impeccable, making us feel truly welcomed.
Our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with a cozy bed that ensured a restful sleep after long days of exploring. The breakfast was delicious, offering a of tasty options to start the day right.
H78 holds a special place in our hearts, and we will absolutely choose to stay here again on our next trip to the Maldives. If you’re looking for a fantastic hotel with top-notch service, comfort, and affordability, look no further than H78!

FFlanaganWe used Samann Host for a transition stop for 1-night and I was happy with the trip. Met at airport and driven promptly to the hotel. We got in late and woke-up early due to seaplane departure, but they were nice enough to make two breakfast takeaway bags for us. I'd recommend.

HHungerfortheJourneyAs I arrived in Male in the evening and boat transfer to the island was in the morning, I needed a place to stsy for the night.
Hotel Lonuveli was very prompt in replying to email regarding transfer from and to Male airport. A representative was waiting at arrivals with hotel sign. In the morning at the appointed time the car was there to transport back to the airport for boat transfer.
Breakfast was simple and tasty, easy start to first morning in the Maldives.
Overall a good start to holiday in the Maldives, no worries about transportation.

GGuest UserPerfect for a one-night stop before heading out to the islands. The location was super convenient—right across from the beach 🌴, making it easy to unwind after the flight. Breakfast was amazing with plenty of fresh options to fuel the start of our adventure. Airport transfers were smooth and easy, and we even managed to capture some beautiful beachside photos 📸 before moving on. Great value and comfort for a quick stay!

AAnonymous UserWe booked two rooms for two nights but when we arrived the hotel said that have a room for only one night. They sent us to a different hotel across the road and told us they will sort the issue next day. The room was fine but the bathroom had a leaking tap. We had to change our trip plans as we had to checkout from the first hotel following day in order to check in at the original hotel we booked. The hotel staff was helpful and the breakfast was okay.

GGuest UserThere is a night market opposite the hotel. There is a business area nearby. Opposite is the factory apartment, surrounded by snacks. The price is also very good. The nearby scenic spots are also very close. I'll come next time I get a chance. Breakfast was good, too. Have many tricks

GGuest UserI went with my parents. Only this hotel has a triple room. Arriving at midnight, the pick-up service of the staff is very good, and they are also helping to coordinate the time with the resort hotel, but the hotel environment is generally acceptable as a transitional hotel
