Better facility but not worth for the rate charged, Staff is frendly. I have losted my valuable thing in this motel, when I call back they said it was there to get back for me. but when I visit there back they said it was not there. Communication between management and staff is not good. Waste my time and money.... More

Althought the staff were friendly and helpful, I really cannot recommend this hotel for the following reasons: 1) Our airport pick-up did not materialise. We waited 20 minutes and then made our own way to the hotel at our expense, although we had paid Agoda for a transfer. 2) Breakfast was a sad affair served up on a ledge overlooking... More

For th price you pay, you get your money's worth. Very affordable yet very good, I found the rooms were quite clean & had nothing to complain. Had WiFi in the lobby as well. The place was very quite with hardly any disturbance. There were a few good restaurants close to this place which had good food. King's Corner comes... More

This is very small hotel, but it's just fine for short modest stay. Complimentary airport transfer works, I was fetched from airport 20 mins after call to hotel (flight was hours late). There is no restaurant, but they make simple breakfast. In room the bed takes most of the space, and the electricity sockets might work or not. There is... More

Like everyone else, we needed overnight accomodation before flying out to our resort the next morning. After doing plenty of research on Male accomodation, it seemed pretty clear its overpriced and not of a great standard. So the challenge was to not feel entirely ripped off after checking out of one of these places. Boutique inn did acheive that. It... More

There is nothing ‘boutique’ or ‘villa’ about The Boutique Inn at Villa Shabnamee. There is, however, a whole lot of dirty and unfriendly. We cannot reconcile our extremely negative experience here with some of the more recent comments. We had an online booking (which we re-confirmed via e-mail before our flight) and arrived late at night to a dank lobby... More

I've been to Male two times (2010 and 2011) and stayed in three different hotels. And my general impression is that you have limited options of choice. This hotel is one block from the main commercial street (Majeedi Magu) and the National Stadium. It is a walkable distance to the Male jetty that serves to/from the airport (if you do... More
