H78 is a great little hotel nestled in a not so great area. It’s directly across from the beach, but it’s not well kept and there is lots of debris and construction garbage everywhere you go. Not a tourist destination, but a great place to stay if you’re transferring to a liveaboard. I didn’t feel unsafe at all and walked down to Bombay restaurant for a great meal at a great price. The staff of H78 was amazing and very friendly and helpful. The rooms were small but well-kept and modern with more than enough space if you’re just staying for the night. The breakfast was also amazing with a good selection of protein/carbs along with fresh squeezed fruit juices and homemade jams. They even made fresh cappuccinos. I would definitely stay here again!

Wouldn’t stay again
Pros-service was excellent, they knew all about our transfer, they spoke to our next hotel, picked and dropped us from the airport on time and we’re very efficient Cons- the WORST bed we have ever slept in. The springs were broken so they were digging into our back all night, we kept rolling off towards the edge and it made terribly noises every time we moved. Got a stiff next for 2 days afterwards. The toilet also stopped working (flushing) so we had to use the one in the restaurant

I loved the transportation to and from the airport - they were on time and efficient. I did not like the fact that after we paid using Expedia, we arrived only to be told that we had to pay another $50. Why pay in advance when you have to pay more upon arrival? It was also inconvenient that the A/C did not work properly, it would run for a few minutes and then shut off. It appeared they had a circuit overload and we had to call the front office repeatedly to get the A/C to work again. This was especially inconvenient at night when tryong to sleep.

Great location by the beach, I got the sea view room which was very nice. Worth to pay a little more. Booked through Expedia, got a good rate with half board (breakfast & dinner). Both meals have good selection of food. It would be nice if they provide water at the breakfast buffet line instead of having to ask for each glass. The best of all here is the staff. Sowmya at the reception and airport transfer staff are excellent and very helpful. Airport transfer was puncture. I stayed here for 2 nights for arrival and departure. Everything worked well both times. Highly recommended.

Stay away!
We have booked this place because we had to stay somewhere for a night before going on a boat. Deceived by good reviews we thought that this could be a nice place to start our Maldives tour. Far from it - the rooms were very small and if not really dirty then not completely clean. The beds are uncomfortable, towels old, etc, etc. Fortunately it was for a night only. We had a half-board. Don't do it! The meals included are just awful. And finally I was foolish enough to let them carry our luggage. When we were returning to the airport for a boat pick up they managed to drop one of our bags and broke it. Fortunately I had a gorilla tape with me to fix the bag so that it could travel home where I had to throw it away. When confronted with the situation they promised to deal with it - buying a new bag before we leave the islands. They took my whatsapp contact but never got back to me even-though I wrote to them. In short - don't let them handle your luggage or better stay away from this place.

Dear BorisWe are sorry to hear that you had a contrary experience to thousands of our guests, what you have mentioned here falls far short of our hotel standards. This is the first incident in 8 years that we have had where there was an issue with guest luggage, our team is very careful of guest belongings. I would question the sturdiness of any bag that breaks on simply falling. we hope you had a good rest of your stay in Maldives.

Just a fantastic experience. We were met at the airport and transported in a very nice minibus to the hotel. (Much nicer than the van used by the American chain hotel we stayed in the night before. Quick check in, and because our rate included dinner, they brought it up to our room even though it was nearly midnight and the kitchen was closed. Room was clean, spacious and modern. Tea and coffee and water provided. Great shower. Nice breakfast. Great transfer back to the airport for our domestic flight (they knew what time we should leave and the desk number - they are very good at this.) Highly recommend if you need overnight accommodation in Male before or after a resort vacation. You can make a reservation here worry-free.
