The room we booked was the size of a normal hotel room...the room we actually got could hardly fit a full size bed and not in great shape (though the bed was surprisingly comfortable). ##### Landon Stayed 1 night in Mar 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### LauriAnn Feb 12, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### One good night in Male! Room was almost European sized, but it makes sense considering everything has to fit within the size of the island. The bed was very comfortable- we both commented on it! The room was VERY clean and the air conditioning was the best I’d felt in the Maldives. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. One even walked us to the boat we needed for an excursion to ensure we made it to the right spot. The staff truly made the experience wonderful and I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thanks for the great stay Novina! ##### LauriAnn Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Jan 29, 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Personal hilfsbereit bei Nachfrage, allgemein aber nicht sehr freundlich.

Tämä hotelli soveltui siihen hyvin. Siisti ja hyvä sijainti. Valittu perushuone pieni ja ikkunaton, mutta hyvin varusteltu. Jatkossa ottaisin hieman paremman kuin tällaisen perushuoneen ja ainakin jos olisin useamman yön. Hotellin yhteydessä oleva ravintola tarjosi hyvän illallisen, aamupala tyypillisen vaatimaton. ##### Tapani Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### magali Oct 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bon hotêl pour une nuit Bonne location pour le marché aux poissons et l'accès aux speedboat pour Rasdhoo.

The room was dirty. Walls and bed linens were stained. There were ants on the danishes at Breakfast. When we tried to check out they tried to make us pay extra taxes and airport transfers even though we showed them that both were included in the price we paid to hotels.com. The manager was not here to help. He demanded that we pay or he would charge put card. Very unhappy. ##### Nelson Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Mar 27, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great value for money. The hotel is very central in the bustling Male. Room was small and clean but that is what we expected. Arrived four hours early and happy to pay US$15 to have room right away on a very hot day. Breakfast was good with choice of cerials, toast and an egg breakfast. Free shuttle to the airport was great. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Paul Mar 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice & convenient transit hotel in Male We stayed in Lovina for our first and last night in Maldives. Free hotel transit was very handy. We also used their luggage storage for our big suitcases so we could travel to the islands light. Novina is conveniently located close to the jetty. There are quite a few restaurants and shops close to the hotel. Our room was small, without window but clean and equipped with everything we needed. The hotel staff are polite and helpful. We would stay again. ##### Paul Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Mar 8, 2019 Disliked: Staff & service #### Aamupala ok, muuten ei vastannut odotuksia Hotelli ei vastannut yhteenkään kolmesta e-mailista jotka lähetin koskien lentokenttäkuljetusta (hotels.comin viesti, hotellin oman kotisivun kautta, sähköpostitse lähettämääni). Menin hotelliin omakustanteisesti lautalla ja taksilla. Vastaanotossa kukaan ei pahoitellut tilannetta vaan vastaus oli yrititkö soittaa? En yrittänyt, ilmeisesti oma virheeni... Huone oli pieni ”kaupunkinäköalalla” joka oli yhtä kuin toisen talon seinä ikkunan edessä, ja jos kurkotti ikkunasta niin näki kadulle. Lakanoissa oli useita pesussa lähtemättömiä tahroja. TV-kanavien toimivuus sekä aamupala olivat hyvät. Aamulla kuljetuksen piti tulla hyvissä ajoin klo 9.30 koska silloin oli myös toisten majoittujoiden kuljetus (oma veneeni lähti klo 10.00), mutta klo 9.45 ei autoa näkynyt ja selitys oli ettei auto aina pääse tulemaan ajoissa?!? Matkaa lähtölaiturille ei ollut kuin max 4 min kävely, mutta matkatavoiden kanssa olin ajatellut kuljetuksen olevan kätevämpi, mutta koska en halunnut jäädä veneen kyydistä niin kävelin lopulta laiturille tavaroideni kanssa. Hotellin asiakaspalvelusta ei jäänyt positiivista kuvaa, tästä syystä peruin matkani viimeisen yön varaukseni kyseiseen hotelliin. Kuvat jotka hotellista ovat ilmoituksessa, ovat hyvin tyylitelty versio todellisuudesta. Koska oma huoneeni oli ”kaupunkinäköalalla” niin hotellin parvekkeelliset huoneet ovat kadulle päin, kadulle jossa on aamusta iltamyöhään auto/skootteriruuhkaa joten melua riittää. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Mar 6, 2019 Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort #### 狭くてコスパ悪し とにかく狭い。写真とまったく違います。空港送迎も前日に予約していたにも関わらず、ホテルの都合で時間が遅れ、危うくフライトを逃すところでした。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Wing Yee Winnie Mar 5, 2019 Disliked: Staff & service #### never again Hotels.com stated that they have 24hrs transit from airport, I emailed them twice before departure but no one reply. I called Hotels.com at the airport and they told me the transit was closed. I have to go to the Novina by taxi. The hotel is tiny and the room is small. The hotel is nearby the Islamic Center, the public announcement @ 5:00AM woke me up. I asked them help to contact my resort to pick me up in next day morning but in vain. I have to wake up @6am and wait in the airport and contact myself. The breakfast provided is cheese sandwiches, 1 boiled egg and an orange only. ##### Wing Yee Winnie Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [OBLU SELECT Lobigili with Free Transfers](https://www.expedia.ca/OBLU-SELECT-Lobigili.h72915067.Hotel-Information) > > [Kurumba Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Vihamanafushi-Hotels-Kurumba-Maldives.h1118581.Hotel-Information) > > [Conrad Maldives Rangali Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Rangali-Island-Hotels-Conrad-Maldives-Rangali-Island.h564176.Hotel-Information) > > [Hard Rock Hotel Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Emboodhoo-Lagoon-Hotels-Hard-Rock-Hotel-Maldives.h31994718.Hotel-Information) > > [Anantara Veli Maldives Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Veligandu-Hotels-Anantara-Veli-Maldives-Resort-Adults-Only.h1486735.Hotel-Information) > > [OZEN LIFE MAADHOO - Luxury All Inclusive with Free Transfers](https://www.expedia.ca/Maadhoo-Hotels-OZEN-LIFE-MAADHOO-A-Luxury-All-Inclusive-Resort.h16821632.Hotel-Information) > > [Meeru Maldives Resort Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Meerufenfushi-Hotels-Meeru-Maldives-Resort-Island.h1451649.Hotel-Information) > > [Malahini Kuda Bandos Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kuda-Bandos-Hotels-Malahini-Kuda-Bandos-Resort.h14801253.Hotel-Information) > > [Summer Island Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Ziyaraifushi-Island-Hotels-Summer-Island-Maldives.h9990281.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Coral Reef Resort & Spa Maldives – A Premium All Inclusive Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Hembadhu-Island-Hotels-Taj-Coral-Reef-Resort-Spa-Maldives.h526375.Hotel-Information) > > [Centara Ras Fushi Resort & Spa Maldives - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Giravaru-Hotels-Centara-Ras-Fushi-Resort-Spa-Maldives.h5714044.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Resort Kandooma Maldives by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Kandooma-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Resort-Kandooma-Maldives.h2427339.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozen Reserve Bolifushi- All Inclusive with Free Transfers](https://www.expedia.ca/Bolifushi-Island-Hotels-OZEN-RESERVE-BOLIFUSHI-A-Luxury-All-Inclusive-Resort.h4277939.Hotel-Information) > > [OBLU SELECT Sangeli - Premium All Inclusive with Free Transfers](https://www.expedia.ca/Akirifushi-Hotels-OBLU-SELECT-Sangeli-All-Inclusive-With-Free-Transfers.h22499523.Hotel-Information) > > [Velassaru Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Velassaru-Hotels-Velassaru-Maldives.h1145793.Hotel-Information) > > [SAii Lagoon Maldives, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Ehmafushi-Hotels-SAii-Lagoon-Maldives.h30435488.Hotel-Information) > > [COMO Cocoa Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Makunufushi-Hotels-COMO-Cocoa-Island.h1489753.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Furanafushi-Island-Hotels-Sheraton-Maldives-Full-Moon-Resort-Spa.h1326412.Hotel-Information) > > [OBLU XPERIENCE Ailafushi - All Inclusive with Free Transfers](https://www.expedia.ca/OBLU-XPErience-Ailafushi.h72915265.Hotel-Information) > > [Bandos Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Bandos-Island-Hotels-Bandos-Maldives.h1705990.Hotel-Information) > > [Adaaran Club Rannalhi](https://www.expedia.ca/Rannalhi-Hotels-Adaaran-Club-Rannalhi-45-Minutes-Away-From-Male-By-Speedboat.h1514749.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Maldives At Kuda Huraa](https://www.expedia.ca/Kuda-Huraa-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Maldives-At-Kuda-Huraa.h797351.Hotel-Information) > > [Baros Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Baros-Island-Hotels-Baros-Maldives.h1334001.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton Maldives, Fari Islands](https://www.expedia.ca/The-Ritz-Carlton.h58998476.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Exotica Resort And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Emboodhu-Finolhu-Hotels-Taj-Exotica-Resort-And-Spa.h526353.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Park Kodhipparu](https://www.expedia.ca/Kuda-Vattaru-Hotels-Grand-Park-Kodhipparu.h17786794.Hotel-Information) > > [Coco Bodu Hithi](https://www.expedia.ca/Bodu-Hithi-Hotels-Coco-Bodu-Hithi.h1639983.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Maldivas - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Kedhigandu-Hotels-RIU-Palace-Maldivas-All-Inclusive.h35002724.Hotel-Information) > > [Adaaran Prestige Vadoo - Adults Only - All Inclusive with Free Transfers](https://www.expedia.ca/Vadoo-Island-Hotels-Adaaran-Prestige-Vadoo-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive-With-Free-Transfers.h2899981.Hotel-Information)
