This is one of the better hotels in Male. The staff are very helpful.
The hotel is directly opposite the mosque, therefore expect an early morning wake up.
The hotel restaurant on floors 10 and 11 is very good, compared to other restaurants in Male.

For Male standards this is a good hotel. The restaurant on the top floor, is good. The staff are extremely helpful.
The hotel is opposite a Mosque, therefore expect and early wake up, but every hotel is in close proximity to a Mosque.
Personally, Male is not a very nice place to spend time.
