Hôtels Samann Grand à Malé

We arrived on a late flight, and was picked up at Velana Airport by Samann Grand hotel staff. It is a free airport transfer service provided by the hotel and was well appreciated. Normally, it will cost up to $25 USD per person for such service. Upon reaching the hotel about 15mins away from the airport, welcome drinks were offered at the concierge. The beach was just 5 mins walk from the hotel, but hotel was surrounded by 2 mosques. Early morning (5-6am) prayers were very loud, as the speakers were out facing towards the streets. As it was just an overnight stay, it was value for the price paid. Additional charges were charged for an extra bed and govt tourist tax. Breakfast offered was so-so. No complains.
