Guest Reviews
- Jelou Mae (10/5): Good Value for Money and Great Location accessable to shops and closeby to Jetty - Approachable staffs and Location so far TV not functioning well
- Guest (6/5): Good for a night or two - The staff were amazing. The reception assisted me with a late check out and whatever needed and the lady at the breakfast was AMAZING, she was taking care of us like a mother to her kids, she really deserves all compliments!
The location of the hotel is next to everything but keep I'm mind that there is a lot of traffic around. The rooms are generally small, I had a rooftop room booked but I saw the other rooms and were extremely small. Cleaning can be improved by a lot. My bathroom didn't have AC and felt like a small sauna, I tried closing the window (facing outside) and allow the AC from the room to cool it.
The AC in the bedroom is right above the bed, unfortunately is very inconvenient but switching it off is also not a solution as it gets very humid and hot.

- Anton (10/5): - This is the best place to stay overnight in Malé.
Transfer both ways is included in the price
Good breakfast with a choice of 6 options
Decent and clean rooms — nothing special
And most importantly, the staff. Special thanks to a guy named Namil — very polite and caring. He answered all my questions and helped me solve transfer issues to other islands, even though it’s not something they usually handle. A person who did more for me than the owners of other hotels on the islands. Thank you for your effort.

- Eemeli (9/5): Nice base for doing island day trips and walking around male - Location was good, near ferries to islands and restaurant was good too
- Małgorzata (6/5): Mogło być lepiej :) - Obsługa sympatyczna, zameldowanie przebiegło bezproblemowo, bagaże zostały nam wniesione do pokoju.
Pyszne śniadanie (jedliśmy zestaw lokalny) serwowane przez bardzo miłą kelnerkę.
Dobra lokalizacja w samym centrum miasta, blisko do portu.
Na plus również transport lotniskowy wliczony w cenę pokoju. Niestety w pokoju było brudno. Kosz na śmieci nie został opróżniony po poprzednich lokatorach.
Klimatyzacja bardzo głośna, nawet na najniższych obrotach. W nocy ciężko było spać.

Cerca de la zona donde salen los Speedboat para todas las Islas, buenos restaurantes cerca y el hotel esta limpio y cuidado.
- Mahesh (8/5): Flip a coin - Good location - waling distances to many attractions, markets., balcony for smoke, healthy breakfast spread. Spacious room.
Mr. Harish (staff) was very helpful for daily utilities' replenishment and making up the room. Very thorough and passionate for work support. Thank you harish for delighting experience. Room cleaning was done only after 3 pm every day (short staff and shift starting at 3 pm!) TV was only through youtube with only one local news channel and some old movie channel.
For alchoholic beverages, one need to go to hotel besides Male airport (5 km away) or need to stay to specific hotels (mostly on outside islands than in Male). Nearest beach where one can swim is Hulhumale beach, 9 km away.
Accepts payment only in USD, not MVR.
- Francois (9/5): - L'emplacement, le confort et la nourriture.
- Gabriela (7/5): - Centrální poloha, dostupnost ovocného a rybího trhu

- marielle (2/5): Onhygiënisch en ongezond - Locatie Ze waren ons vergeten op te halen van de luchthaven. Geen enkele reactie gekregen op berichten en mail. Kamer zeer klein. 1 handdoek voor 2 personen. Ergste was de schimmellucht die er hing. Er was duidelijk zichtbaar over de schimmel geschilderd. De plekken zag je daar de verf doorkomen
- Vadym (5/5): - Too small and old style
- Made Sukma (8/5): -
- Darko (10/5): - Lokacija hotela je odlična, v centru mesta, blizu vseh znamenitosti mesta. Soba je bila velika in čista. Osebje se je odlično trudilo: kljub pozni uri so odpravili napako na TV aparatu. Zajtrk je bil dober. Tudi ureditev prevoza do letališča je bil izveden odlično. Ob ponovnem obisku mesta bom spet izbral ta hotel.
- Inara (10/5): - Очень удобный отель. Хороший персонал, вкусные завтраки и ужины. Очень удобный трансфер от и до аэропорта! Номер deluxe хорошего размера, удобная большая кровать и маленький диванчик.
- monica chackal (7/5): Decent stay in Male - Decent stay for 1 night before a flight. Walking distance to speed boat dock which is convenient. Felt mostly clean, free shuttle to airport. Good water pressure. Basic bathroom. Honestly I find it very overpriced. With the middle east issue things were almost sold out in male. So we got 2 rooms here and 1 elsewhere. The other place was wayyy nicer, way more spacious and half the price. The room at beehive is very tiny. So my only major complaint is the cost.
- Angela (8/5): -
- AHMAD FAIZAL (5/5): - Book the hotel a day before after realising i booked a wrong date on another hotel. Luckily its the only hotel available with free airport transfer. We checked out from Angsana Velavaru earlier but the seaplane was delayed and also had to pick up passenger at another resort. In the end we arrived at the hotel quite late. After having a bath and dinner, we check out with only less than 3 hours there. Hotel was at the other end of the island. Can take awhile reaching there during heavy traffic. Room was small and basic. But enough for few hours transit to freshened up. Cafe served good food.

- Luciano Felicori (8/5): Cordialità e servizi disponibili, comodo e si mangia bene anche al ristorante - Siamo stati in questo hotel in 8 persone con 4 camere in questi ultimi giorni dove c'erano difficoltà in aeroporto causa conflitto in medio oriente. La struttura è pulita, centrale a due passi dal mercato e dagli altri punti di interesse di Male. Abbiamo prenotato con mezza pensione e nel ristorante si mangia semplice ma molto buono. Lo staff alla reception, al ristorante e ai servizi ai piani è disponibilissimo e gentilissimo. Abbiamo organizzato benissimo transfer, ricevuto informazioni, gestito la prenotazione e altre nostre esigenze sempre con una soluzione. A colazione c'è un po' di tutto, per i gusti degli italiani si potrebbe fare di più, ma come colazione internazionale si trova tutto quello che è necessario. Anche il costo con mezza pensione molto buono. Un ringraziamento a tutto lo staff per averci ospitato e averci sopportato e supportato in questi giorni Unica pecca del posto sono le dimensioni delle camere, ma tenendo conto che a Male nelle strutture di questa fascia di prezzo le dimensioni delle camere sono sempre ridotte
- Anna (6/5): В целом приемлемо для однократной ночёвки одного человека - Отель расположен очень удобно, прямо в центре, вокруг множество магазинов и кафе. Бесплатный трансфер из/в аэропорт в любое время.
Все необходимое в номере есть, насекомых не видела. Лифт работает.
Подходит для начевки после или перед перелётом. Очень маленький номер, практически уже капсула. Для одного человека - нормально, но уже вдвоем будет сложнее. Обстановка несвежая, потёртая и засаленная, шумно.
Завтрака не было из-за раннего выезда, но ланчбоксов тоже не было.
- Alexis (5/5): -
- Ahmed (7/5): -
- Manar (8/5): - Good location they gave us free upgrades it was cool
- Mihaela Violeta (7/5): -
- Claudia (3/5): - Staff disponibile e taxi per ritorno in aeroporto incluso Camera piccolissima senza finestre, forte odore di muffa e pareti con grandi macchie di muffa, lenzuola macchiate e asciugamani un po' grigiastri. La doccia non è divisa dal resto del bagno quindi bagni tutto il pavimento.non c'è sapone per le mani. Colazione molto misera. Rapporto qualità prezzo pessima. Non lo consiglio
- Salisa (5/5): - They foget to pick up us at the airport.
- Javier (8/5): -
- Tahli (9/5): Was a great place to stay for a night in between arriving internationally and flying domestically. - Very easy to arrange the free airport shuttle service. The staff were super friendly and helpful and even arranged us takeaway breakfast as we had to leave before the cafe fully opened.
- Ariee_m (8/5): -
- Jorge (6/5): Acceptable hotel. - Convenient hotel, close to the local and fish markets and harbor. The hotel wasn't especially nice nor affordable. I guess there aren't many options in Malé.
- renato (7/5): -
- Roeslan (10/5): -
- Harendri (10/5): - I truly appreciate the amazing crew at Beehive Central Hotel. Everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and kind throughout my stay.
A special shoutout to the Indian gentleman at the reception . He is absolutely the best! Soooo friendly and helpful, he really made my experience extra special. The manager was also super cool and approachable. He talked with us like he had known us before, which made us feel so comfortable.
The restaurant staff were incredibly nice and attentive as well. They were always smiling and made every meal feel comfortable and enjoyable.
And the food? So yummy! 😍
Honestly, every single staff member made my days brighter while I was there.
Highly recommend this hotel if you’re staying in the Maldives!
- Valentina (3/5): -
- Patrick (9/5): Extremely helpfil staff - Staff were very hepful arranging shuttle to/from airport. Also phoned next hotel i was staying at to find out the travel arrangement thay had made for me.,
Strong wifi. Airport Shuttle pickup was slow.
- Ruslan (7/5): Переночевать до или после самолета, на одну ночь -можно! Понравилось, что есть оплата на месте. Немного, как показалось - Гостеприимные сотрудники, хороший завтрак, бесплатный трансфер из аэропорта! В комнате есть все необходимое: кровать! Очень маленькие комнаты. Если с большим чемоданом, то места в комнате нет, совсем.
- nuria (1/5): -
- Loubna (7/5): -
- Samuel (7/5): -
- Ryan (1/5): Exasperated - Location Took 1.5 hours for airport pickup and had to squeeze 8 pax into a packed van.
Had requested transfer to airport 5:15am the next morning, the staff acknowledged but car didn’t come next morning. He say we will have to wait 30-40 mins for the pickup, by which we would had missed the flight.
Attitude was bad.
Advise travelled to spend abit more money and get a better hotel.
- Deborah (10/5): Great value with many inclusive features. - We loved our stay in a large rooftop room with lounge, king size bed, desk and tea and coffee area and spacious bathroom. It was very convenient for all the activities were were interested in including the national museum, fish market and historical sites and taking the ferry to other islands. It was great value to have airport transfers, late checkout and breakfast and dinner included. The food in the Hive Cafe was delicious, well priced and good options. We didn't find any better place. Staff were helpful, particularly the Sri Lankan lady in the cafe in the evening. Beehive Central were also very generous with the water they provided.
- Rachel Zoe (5/5): Okay for one night but not worth the cost at all. - Nice convenient location in Malé. They offer free pick up and drop off to airport or boats. Lovely staff and good breakfast included. Room was tiny, black mould all through the walls. Small beds.
- Manca (3/5): -
- Florentina (10/5): M as reintoarce oricand. - Raportul pret/calitate, foarte bun. Personalul foarte atent la solicitari. Amplasarea este in centrul capitalei. Camera de la ultimul nivel are vedere spre port. Micul dejun este continental, la alegere. Exista si o terasa ptr cafea si fumat. Curatenie de nota 10, in plus am fost transportati la port, cu vehiculul hotelului. -

- Anastasia (10/5): Идеальный вариант при необходимости ночевки в Мале - Все было отлично, брала делюкс номер на самом верхнем этаже. Номер просторный, даже есть небольшой балкон, с видом на океан. До аэропорта ехать минут 10. В номере есть все необходимое, чайник и холодильник. Шустрый интернет. Идеально для того, чтобы остановиться на пару ночей перед вылетом (или если нужно подождать спидбот до отеля на другом острове). Все было отлично, замечаний нет.

- Teges (10/5): -
- Lanka (8/5): Good place with easy access for shopping - It is situated in the center of Male where all the shops are nearby. Bathroom water drain system was not functioning properly. Took more time to remove water from the bathroom floor. So that it was like a small flood in the bathroom for10-15 min after bath.
- Vasili (8/5): - Чисто и аккуратно, отличный завтрак, вкусно и есть из чего выбрать, дружелюбный и отзывчивый персонал Комнатка очень маленькая, в розетках отсутствуют переходник под евровилки, гаджеты пришлось заряжать на рецепшн (
В номере есть чайник только включить его не вышло(
Вид из окна на крышу соседнего здания, 4 этаж
- Garth (6/5): Sufficient for a one night stay, wouldn’t want to stay longer. - The location is great. Comfortable beds. Reception missed the update to our arrival time at the airport and left us waiting there. They eventually arranged a taxi.
The hotel room was full of ants and was dirty. The minibar fridge stinks. There was old open, used packets of coffee and sugar in the drawer (these drawers are obviously not cleaned).
After checkout the hotel will spam you with emails upon emails upon emails insisting on feedback. They don’t even give you time to get home, this persistent emailing requesting for a feedback is annoying!!
- Mike (9/5): -
- Gaetano (6/5): - Posizione buona, colazione sufficiente, camera migliorabile. Comunicazione con lo staff un po farraginosa per ottenere le prestazioni concordate, late checkout e trasporti verso l'aeroporto
- Cristina (6/5): Justo - El personal es encantador y me ayudaron con equipaje. El desayuno me pareció generoso pero de poca calidad
- Mohamed (8/5): - Staff is very friendly Need more attention in room cleanliness.
- Plakkoottathil (5/5): -
- Tommaso (7/5): - It needs some renovation. The furniture looks old and not restored.
- Nahla (2/5): Not recommended - The staff is nice! The room was smelly, towels and sheets were not fresh. The room was noisy .
- Kjell (7/5): -
- Juan Ignacio (9/5): Un sitio a buen calidad/precio, teniendo en cuenta que era Male - El trato fundamentalmente. Y la situación: cerca del fish market (según mi impresión). Había algún mosquito e insectos (hormigas muy pequeñas de paseo)
- Narayan (8/5): - Service was good but they are supposed to provide 10% discount on food which they didn’t progi
- Romilda (9/5): - Il personale molto disponibile e gentile.
Ci hanno aiutato a contattare il personale per il trasferimento nel resort da noi prenotato per i giorni successivi . Formula mezza pensione molto buona.
Grazie di tutto!
- RZD (7/5): - A good deal considering the local conditions in Male. Very dedicated staff and excellent airport transfers. The hotel's location is excellent, close to the most important sights (the mosque, fish and local markets, and the main shopping streets – so you can see how normal people live here, not just tourists). The hotel's facilities are slowly starting to need some improvements, such as the air conditioning and bathroom fixtures in the room.
