That Iv been a repeater and I still don’t see them taking note of the fact that I’d like coffee without milk in my room. It’s not difficult to keep just plain coffee powder in the room I think.

It’s a good location, good price.

They don’t have coffee without milk in the rooms. Not everyone wants the instant milk coffee mixes.

I stayed 2 times. Both times I was forced to pay Green Tax. I have a permanent resident visa (marriage) and “exempt from Green Tax” as per Maldives Island Revenue Authority. Educate your staff and avoid this mistake in future please

We booked “all-inclusive”, which I’m not sure if it provided much more than “full board” would have, each person only got to choose one type of food per meal served with one drink. Not necessarily a problem, but not a classic all-inclusive service.

The staff in the hotel were very helpful with us, they let us check in early after a long flight and even helped us find the best excursion options in Hulhumale. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was served downstairs at a buffet, lunch and dinner were chosen from a fixed menu, with not many options, but the food was well prepared and tasty.

My wife and I stayed at Hotel Star Shell for a night before heading to our next resort after landing in Male City late in the evening. The property was good overall. While the price might feel a bit high compared to other countries, it was worth it. The room was small but perfectly suitable for an overnight stay before transferring to our resort the next day. Breakfast was included, which was a nice touch. Plus, 2-3 minutes walk to the beach is also good way to choose the Star Shell.

Windows in the room had small gaps in the frame when closed so traffic noise could be heard.

Staff really friendly and helpful. Check in process was smooth and the room had everything needed for a short stay.

It’s a basic hotel. Some of the rooms don’t smell the freshest due to poor ventilation in some of the rooms.

Price, location and very friendly staff.

There was hardly anything to dislike. The staff made a few minor mistakes, like not bringing towels to my room on the first day. But they quickly rectified it once informed. Beyond this, the price might be a sticky point. But it's still one of the few places in Hulhumale where you'll find real value with clean rooms and staff that guarantee a comfortable stay just as the other reviews state. Definitely would reconsider staying here if I visit Hulhumale again.

Stayed here for 8 days comfortably. Fundamentally, the room was clean, the staff was professional, and they had a good selection of food. It's also close to the beach and you can easily catch the bus from the nearby stops to go anywhere. Oh and a bonus - THEY HAVE A LIFT. This last point is a bit one because there's a bunch in Hulhumale without it, which forces you to carry your luggage.

Last time we stayed in StarShell we got a newly renovated room with nice interior. So the expectation was the same this time, unfortunately we got a old room that need some renovation soon.

We’ve stayed at this hotel a couple of times before or after a flight. The rooms can smell a bit musty, depending on the room you get. The bathrooms are ok, just ventilation isn’t the best. The bed is a touch small for a couple.

It’s a basic and convenient hotel. The staff are attentive and very friendly. We would stay again.

They informed me just one day before traveling that they canceled my airport transport. This is the only bad thing. It is good for staying there if you want just a simple and clean room. And not for you if you looking for a luxury
