Nice stay prior to our morning flight. Airport transfer was via taxi and was included in the rate. The room was clean and well appointed. Breakfast was fabulous, better than the fancy resort we had just come from. Thomas, the owner of the hotel, was personable and friendly and we enjoyed our conversations. Would definitely stay again.

This is a wonderful boutique hotel and the Thai food was some of the best we have had anywhere. Room was lovely with great A/C and breakfast terrific, I.e, huge basket of different pastries and breads, eggs to order, espresso drinks, fruit, etc. Highly recommend this hotel. The owners and staff are very dedicated to service and making your stay memorable.

Excellent Thai food。 The owner Thomas and his wife rose are very helpful and we have an excellent stay there. The only improvement needed might be the toilet. A proper shower room will make it A . Even with this short coming, Sala Boutique still deserve A (2 less).

Not value for Money.

Hotel was nice, hospitality was good but the hotel location was not that much satisfying. And the breakfast will fell you very sad and non energetic each and every day same bread , same jam and same egg no change on menu, if you are staying for more than one or two days you will not like the breakfast they charge more but value for the breakfast is zero. About room everything is ok expect rooms lights💡soo lazy or should i say full light bill saving all the lights are very low brightness it will feel you that you enter in massages parlour. Apart from this all ok not good but I will say after 7 days staying its only ok not good.

A decent stop before flying home

A decent place to stay in Male - especially if you are catching an early morning flight back home.

Nice boutique hotel with great service & good food

Nice boutique hotel with great service and good food. Not exactly tranquil though: not sure if walls are thin, but I could hear doors closing and other peoples phone calls (one guest was having very loud and very unhappy conversations late at night with her booking agent). There is also a mosque nearby which uses loudspeaker for the call to prayer. The "elevator music" in the restaurant also gets a bit repetitive.

The staff was exceptionally good. The entire staff went out of their way to make you feel welcome. While checking in we witnessed a guest come to the desk and ask for assistance in paying his cab fair. He apparently realized he did not have any cash on him. Without blinking or asking questions the staff went to the curb side and paid the guests taxi fee from the airport.
