Pros:

The service of the staff is good. They always helped with the luggage and arranged pickup trips from the airport.

Cons:

The room is small and dark, even with a balcony. The hot water in the shower does not last 5 min. The breakfast was not good, for me there were almost no choice and I just ate cereal. But i think most hotels in Male are like this anyway.

Pros:

Room and toilet was decent and clean.
No yellow water (might be due to piping) compared to some other hotels around male.
Service and staff are excellent, always a friendly greeting whenever I pass by.

Cons:

The charging ports were hardly working (room 702) except for 1 which I needeed to adjust a bit to be able to connect the power. Stayed for 1 night so was able to make do with it though.

Pros:

Завтраки более менее, но выбор очень скудный

Cons:

на фотографиях отель кажется более привлекательным. На самом деле, практически нет лобби, ужасно узкие лестничные проходы, лифта не дождешься.

清潔で往復送迎あるため、前泊に便利！近くに24時間営業のスーパーあり。
Pros:

マレへの到着が夜であったため、リゾートへの移動の前泊として利用しました。往復送迎つきのプランであることと、ホテルの内装の新しさや清潔さが、決め手でした。
予約後すぐに、到着後空港からホテルへの送迎の時間の連絡をしましたが、返信がとても早く、ホテルに着く前から、安心感を感じました。
次に、翌朝のホテルから空港への時間は、リゾートへの移動のためのスピードボートの出発時間が前日に確定するとのことであり、まずは仮の時間をSamman Grand Hotelに連絡しておきました。実際、想定より早いスピードボートの出発時間となりましたが、Samman Grand Hotelは対応してくれました。
ホテルでのチェックイン後に渡される紙に、詳細（ホテル出発時間、スピードボート出発時間）が書かれているため、英語が苦手な私でも分かりやすいシステムでした。
チェックイン時の、ウェルカムドリンクと、おしぼりのサービスは、おもてなしの気持ちを感じました。
室内は、ビジネスホテルより若干広いくらいのサイズですが、リゾートへの前泊なので、十分です。シャワールームは清潔感がありました。トイレはシャワールームの角にあり、ゆったりと使うには少し隅に追いやられている気もしますが、リゾートへの前泊なので、これで十分でした。
小さなベランダもあり、近くのモスク、海、空港が見えました。
朝食会場は10階です。濃厚なグァバジュースと、カレーが美味しかったです。11階には屋上テラスがあります。
なお、ホテルのすぐ近くにモスクがあり、早朝にアザーンの音が流れます。他の口コミには色々書かれていますが、私は特に気になりませんでした。ベットに耳栓も用意されています。
とても良かったです。
24時間営業のスーパーが近くにあり、リゾートへ持っていくお菓子の買い出しも、スムーズに行えました。

Cons:

ホテルから空港への送迎時間がピッタリなため、少し時間がかかると、スピードボートへの乗り継ぎが上手くいかないことがあります。実際、私は乗り継ぎが上手くいかず、1本あとのスピードボートに乗ることになりました。

Luxurious comfort and kind staff made our stay memorable.
Pros:

The staff were extremely helpful, organising our shuttle to and from the airport. They also got our room ready several hours before normal check-in because we arrived into Malé very early. Our room had a great view, lots of space, a fantastic shower and comfortable bed. Dinner in the rooftop restaurant was delicious, and the location was excellent. We would recommend it.

Cons:

The breakfast they provided was odd. It was sandwiches with white and brown bread and a unfathomable filling, dry cake and fruit. It was kind of them to organise it because we had to leave very early in the morning, but perhaps they could think about a more tasty alternative for future guests.

While we were at the hotel and having paid in advance, I also had a WhatsApp message from a Brazilian company claiming there had been a problem with my payment to the hotel. I knew this wasn't the case, but this company had my name and details of the hotel. I was baffled, as to how they had got this information. I contacted the front desk, and they just said it was a scam (which I knew already). I also found it impossible to report this to Booking.com.
