Curio Collection by Hilton Hotels in Malé

The island is big and beautiful, It’s not crowded at all even quite deserted at some places which gives you an absolute sensation of freedom and luxury, The fact that you can travel around the island on a bike provided by the hotel is a great plus ! The beaches are gorgeous and the wildlife is present all around the island, Even though the price is quite high, it’s an experience that I don’t regret… It rained quite a bit when I was there, but the rains doesn’t take anything from the beauty of this place, I enjoyed my stay, thanks to all the team Breakfast is quite good… but I would say that the other restaurants I tried on the island are a bit overpriced for the quality and quantity of the food… but that’s really the only negative point I can think of

We flew directly from China Eastern Airlines to the transitional hotel in Male, and chose the JEN Hotel of the Shangri-La Hotel Group, the only international brand in Male. Booked a package that includes two nights and two breakfasts, and the dinner is a la carte at the restaurant on the roof top of the hotel, which is highly recommended. Start at 5 o'clock for breakfast to catch the water and fly, and the hotel packed it. The room is not big, but the transition is OK.

The staff were so helpful and friendly, the room was small but cozy, I enjoyed my accommodation there.

The service is very good, warm and thoughtful The room is average, not clean enough, the sheets and bedding have stains that have not been cleaned, the hot water in the bathroom is intermittently warm, and there is no hair dryer What was more surprising was that there was a Chinese restaurant on the street near the sea when I turned left when I went out. The authentic beef dumplings saved my stomach.

Hotel Octave Maldives is a hidden gem! 🌴 Nestled in a prime location, it’s just a stone's throw from the beach and local attractions. The cleanliness is top-notch, making it feel like a home away from home. 🧼 The service? Absolutely fantastic! The staff are friendly and always ready to help. Plus, the facilities are great for solo travelers like me, with cozy rooms and a chill vibe. Whether you want to relax or explore, this place has it all. I had an amazing stay and can’t wait to return! 🌊 Highly recommend for anyone visiting Malé!

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.

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

As this is one of the transit hotels in Male, we thought that overall experience was great, the receptionist was very friendly and attentive, check-in process was smooth. The room is as per photos and expectation, comfort to sleep in is the most important one! As our usual hotel practice, we will take photo during check-in and before check-out just to be sure things are all in place 😉

The room is very big. Hotels in Male are mostly small. I didn't expect to find such a big room. We had 2 adults and 1 child (12 years old). We paid a child accommodation fee of $50 at the hotel, which included airport transfer, breakfast, and extra bed. The price was reasonable. The breakfast tasted good. I will choose this hotel again next time.
