Stayed here for a night since our flight arrived at 10pm in Male for our Maldivian grand vacation. We were greeted by a man with the hotel sign and showed us to the speedboat. A pleasant man but not sure if he understood me. It was a quick ride abt5 mins to the dock closest to the hotel. Then we... More

Great staging point for your Maldevian getaway if your inbound flight lands late in the evening. Rather than pay $500-1000 for an extra night at your fav resort (I suspect that's only an option for closer resorts, may not even be an option for any that need a seaplane transfer) spend the first night in Male and do a whirlwind...

First thing to consider in the Maldives is that lodging is just plain expensive for what you get. So lower your expectations based on price. For whatever reason, something that is listed as 4 star (along with price) is really more like a 3 star. That doesn't mean that it isn't still nice, just not equivalent to the price. That... More

We were on our honeymoon trip to Maldives. As our flight arrived at night, we had to stay for one night at Male' before we took the seaplane to the resort. Traders Hotel Male' was our hotel for transit and it was a very good hotel doing its job. We arrived at around 10pm local time, the reception staff was... More

This is a hotel in the capital Male, and is more for business than holiday, but it is a great place to stay if you need a stopover for an early or late flight as well. It is very clean and well appointed, with a cute pool and bar area on the roof (no alcohol though). The welcome and service... More

Hotel is nice, rooms are great. Pool not so nice. But it's all about location, it's in the city, with nothing that the Maldives is all about around it. Hotel does offer some excursions to some of the resorts which are open to day travelers. Staff is friendly and will ensure quorum get the resort you want. The city itself... More

This was actually my second time to be at this Hotel and if there is one that have stuck in my mind, was the hotel's forever smiling staff. They made me feel very much at home. Evidently, they are well trained in hospitality work. This was especially refreshing for me considering that both my visits in Maldives were for meetings... More

Convenient free speedboat transfer from the airport to the hotel and back (I let them know in advance). There are not many hotels located in the small city of Male itself (not much to see in Male and way too many motor bikes!). This is easily the best one, a good 4 star venue. Although more of a business hotel,... More

Stayed here for 5 nights and really liked it. I was on 12th floor with view over the rooftops to the sea. Room was smallish but very well equipped. Pool upstairs was more decorative than a good swimming pool for exercise. But I would definitely stay there again and would have no hesitation in recommending it.
