Close to the airport

The noise from the street

The location is excellent, close to the airport, making it very convenient for next-day seaplane transit. The staff is very nice and helpful.

The staff were amazing and very helpful

My only issue is that there was no hot water for a shower. As I was only there for one day it was manageable. However after a long days travel you want to freshen up and this was disappointing. Cold water does not have the same effect as warm water

Very convenient and great staff. Food was great too.

Room is really tiny, there is very limited space to walk around the bed inside the room. Noisy room. The room on first floor and near the stairway was very noisy at all hours, all the noise from lobby/restaurant area could be heard loudly, and considering the tiny room with no mini corridor at entry made the room very noisy.

Clean room with modern furniture. Restaurant food was good even if service is extremely slow. Location on main street with shops, supermarket, restaurants and on parallel street to Hulhumale seafront

That Iv been a repeater and I still don’t see them taking note of the fact that I’d like coffee without milk in my room. It’s not difficult to keep just plain coffee powder in the room I think.

It’s a good location, good price.

Stayed in March 2025

They don’t have coffee without milk in the rooms. Not everyone wants the instant milk coffee mixes.

I stayed 2 times. Both times I was forced to pay Green Tax. I have a permanent resident visa (marriage) and “exempt from Green Tax” as per Maldives Island Revenue Authority. Educate your staff and avoid this mistake in future please

Location, friendly staff, clean room

We booked “all-inclusive”, which I’m not sure if it provided much more than “full board” would have, each person only got to choose one type of food per meal served with one drink. Not necessarily a problem, but not a classic all-inclusive service.

The staff in the hotel were very helpful with us, they let us check in early after a long flight and even helped us find the best excursion options in Hulhumale. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was served downstairs at a buffet, lunch and dinner were chosen from a fixed menu, with not many options, but the food was well prepared and tasty.

My wife and I stayed at Hotel Star Shell for a night before heading to our next resort after landing in Male City late in the evening. The property was good overall. While the price might feel a bit high compared to other countries, it was worth it. The room was small but perfectly suitable for an overnight stay before transferring to our resort the next day. Breakfast was included, which was a nice touch. Plus, 2-3 minutes walk to the beach is also good way to choose the Star Shell.

Windows in the room had small gaps in the frame when closed so traffic noise could be heard.

Staff really friendly and helpful. Check in process was smooth and the room had everything needed for a short stay.

It’s a basic hotel. Some of the rooms don’t smell the freshest due to poor ventilation in some of the rooms.

Price, location and very friendly staff.
