Hyvä sijainti lähellä uimarantaa jossa pystyi myös snorklata kalalaiturin vieressä. Malessa oli paljon mielenkiintoista seurattavaa mm. kalasatamassa. Helppo käydä muilla saarilla. Edullista kulkea ferillä. Kävellen pääsee moneen kohteeseen. Parasta oli malelaiset ihastuttavat ihmiset. Roskaisuus on tietty tylsää, mutta...

Two nights in Malé

Pleasant stay in a pleasant hotel. There isn't much to do on the island of Malé - purpose of my visit was to recover from flight/s & time zone changes prior to going on SCUBA holiday. There is a very good food market just up the road. You can walk around the island in less than 90 minutes. Very safe island, but not much for tourists.

Saastainen paikka. Kävimme kääntymässä huoneessa ja totesimme huoneiston kunnon. Keskeneräiset sähkötyöt, "spektaakkelit" lakanoilla riittivät varaamaan toiseen paikkaan. Nettikin oli niin hidas ettei pystynyt paikan päällä huonetta varaamaan.

10-min daytime taxi from city centre speedboat pier and airport bus terminal, but close to pier towards maafushi island; a small grocery store is nearby; in contrary to expedia receipt stating "free transfer" at the time of my booking, such service is chargeable at USD15 / 2 pax. Renovation work from 8am to nearly 9:30pm in contrary to notice posted at elevator and without prior known; stained carpet; "balcony" is tiny and narrow allowing 1 guest carefully stepping into; occasional power outage at evening during renovation in progress; very basic breakfast buffet

Nous avons changé d’hotel en arrivant puisqu ‘il n’y a aucune plage a Malé. Ils nous ont aidés à trouver un moyen de nous rendre à un autre hôtel sur une ile mais finalement les informations étaient erronnées et nous devions attendre 3 heures pour un transport. Ils nous ont permis de prendre une douche puisque nous avions payé la chambre pour rien. Gentil pour le service mais hotel à déconseiller et ils ne voulaient pas nous rembourser puisque nous ne voulions pas cette chambre. Frais pour transport de ( 10 min) pas mentionné. Ne pas aller à moins que vous voulez vraiment voir Malé, même aux douanes ils nous ont mentionné « strange hotel »

Friendly, helpful staff. Comfortable room. While it's a bit away from the main tourist attractions, I had fun walking around the local area, especially since I didn't get hassled to look at shops or go into restaurants, unlike in the area where most of the tourist attractions and hotels are. Close to a good spot to watch sunset and watch the world cup once it's dark! Access to WiFi has a time limit, which is my only complaint as it wasn't clear in the booking information and the system doesn't allow you to log off, so you have to use your allotted time all at once (Of course, this may be me missing something). I would definitely stay here again if I go back to Male.

We stayed here for one night as we landed late and didn't want to spend a full night at our resort. It was good for this purpose, given 24h pickup. It isn't the most luxurious hotel, but it is comfortable enough and the staff are friendly. While it is pricey for what it is, it is standard for Maldives I suppose. If you need an overnight stay before heading to your resort, I would recommend this hotel.

Good accommodation in Malé city, efficient hospitality was offered right from the pick up airport to the hotel. Spaces room, new bathroom and with all amenities. Breakfast was a selection of varieties of cuisines. Staff were very courteous and helpful. Location close to the beach, shops, eatery etc. thank you to the staff who work tirelessly to provide warm services. All in all I truly enjoyed my stay in beehive. Regards

Good transfer hotel

Big, spacious suite. Decor is outdated and could be changed. The food at the hotel restaurant was very good. However, the restaurant that the front desk woman recommended was awful. Communication via email and phone was poor; we had a mixup regarding the airport transfer. The area around the hotel is gross. Trash everywhere, constant construction, and not very walkable. I would not stay here more than one night due to the location. But the hotel itself is fine.
