Exceptional service with impeccable cleanliness throughout the stay. The staff were incredibly friendly and consistently went above and beyond to deliver outstanding customer service. The only suggestion for improvement would be to provide two complimentary water bottles per day for double rooms, as one bottle is not quite sufficient for two guests.

I cannot comment on my stay as I have been trying to cancel this for the last few weeks hoping for an exception to the cancellation policy as the war in the Middle East prevented me from visiting. The hotel told me to arrange this with Expedia but then never bothered to answer them when trying to get in touch

We stayed at Hotel Jen in Malé, and the highlight was definitely the staff. The reception team was extremely nice and friendly, making us feel welcome right away. I also loved the airport pickup—the chauffeur was so helpful and even gave us a great introduction to the country during the ride. To be honest, there isn’t much to see in Malé itself, as most visitors head straight to the islands. The hotel is a bit dated, but considering the options in the city, Jen is still among the best in terms of quality and comfort.
