We spent one night at the Somerset Inn close to the centre of Male. It was a fantastic little boutique hotel. The room was small, but basically what you would expect by European standards. It was nicely decorated, with cupboard and desk space. A good bathroom.
The breakfast area was good and breakfast was quite nice.
Staff were really friendly and incredibly helpful, organising our transport to and from the airport and giving us some local advice. I'd stay there again without question and it really made for a nice day in Male, which is overlooked by many people.
