The staff named Ismail is so good. He is friendly and helpful. We just go around to find something to eat. He showed he'd loved to take photos with us and introduced about the restaurant. It is exciting! Then we enjoy the food there. Food is good with nice decoration. We will come back in the near future.

Getting there
Hotel Star Shell is in the Malé area, about 3.3 km in a straight line from Velana International Airport on Hulhulé. Hulhumalé is joined to the airport island by road, and the Sinamalé Bridge links the airport side with Malé, so the transfer is short.
A city stay suits a first or last night around an international flight, or a base for ferries and speedboats out to the nearby local islands of North and South Malé atolls.
The nearest other stays in this guide are Paralian Hulhumale' (on the same island block), Dream Relax (on the same island block) and The G Ten Holiday Inn (on the same island block). On a local island or in the city, stays this close share the same streets, beaches and ferry stops, which makes them easy to compare.

Hotel Star Shell averages 3.9 out of 5 across 226 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
Hotel was near the airport and the beach, BUT. Room was small, but clean. But windows are not so good and you can hear everything from outside! Meal services are really SUPER LIMITED! We have booked all inclusive, which mean lunch (we were not able to use it due our late arrival), dinner (option from few meals and ONE drink from menu) and breakfast which is super limited. Really do not know how the hotel can has 4 stars.
Super small room, no amenities provided inside the room, anything you need to ask and takes forever. Power went out twice because its an old building renovated they didn’t upgrade the power system. The hot water shower only can last 5 mins because the water tank its only 10L. Only 2 bath towels provided and yellow stain on it even though asked for new one. None of the room provides any face tissue. It was super noisy like you sleep on the street. The windows are zero sound proof. The truck and motorcycle were so loud until 4am and it starts again at 7am. Worst one i ever stayed and its not cheap
