Melaka hotels & places to stay

Having stayed a couple different hotels in Melaka before, I wasn't expecting much but Swiss-Garden is the best so far. Room is clean and ready by the time we arrived at 6pm. The room is comfortable large and basic amenities is readily available. Although the check in is pretty slow as most of us were paying at the counter but for a pleasant stay, it is pretty much forgiven and forgotten. Didn't had the time to check out the pool but from top view, looks like the kids will be having much fun there. There's a rooftop bar at the top floor which gives a pretty good bird eye view of the city. The location is also quite close to Jonker street which is about 15 mins walk and there's a 7-Eleven close by about 5 mins walk. The hotel is situated adjacent to a mall but dont expect much from it.. but they do have Starbucks.

Privacy The bathroom has see through mirror and yes there a blind provided for privacy but it a bit see through and the sides are not fully covered. For solo travelling is fine but I have family with children and joining later in the week for which privacy is an issue. Breakfast. Choice of fruits perhaps can increase. Plus some option for vegetarian breakfast could be provided especially on the weekend on 19 May 22 May 2016 as this is the period large numbers of Sikh Temple going visitors occupy many hotels in Melaka. The prayers are held every year on the weekend nearest to 25th May.

What you see in the pictures shown is what you get. The room is clean, tidy, bathroom spacious with bathtub and separate shower area, like it's so spacious different people can shower and bath at the same time (only if you don't mind being seen) and there is still plenty of room. 1. Room - Our room has a balcony facing the melaka river cruise. At night, the view is just breathtaking. and it's windy. pour yourself a cup of wine and just enjoy the city night view 2. Complimentary service - we stayed in the executive floor and were entitled to complimentary English afternoon tea daily. Don't expect fancy things like macaron or madeleine, it's still complimentary item. The hotel is sincere enough to serve it on a beautiful three tier tray. We really felt surprisingly welcomed. 3. Buffet Breakfast - Yes, the breakfast hour is really crowded, you need to queue a bit to wait for table to get inside. that's because it's worth it! their breakfast is delicious, none of those weird tasting hotel food. Nasi lemak is serve with generous choice of rempah ayam goreng (local fried chicken), curry chicken and nyonya chicken. and the replenishment of food is efficient. 4. Shuttle service - The hotel provides shuttle service to Jonker Street and Dataran Pahlawan (shopping mall). This is definitely a great service as Melaka town is always jam and finding parking a hassle. Remember to pre-book your seats if you're planning to take the shuttle. Overall, it's really one of the best hotel I have stayed in. Given the high occupancy, the management and staff still kept the whole place organized, clean and tidy. Will definitely recommend this to anyone who wishes to visit Melaka!

Was there for company retreat. Novotel staffs was awesome!! I would like to specially thank Velicia from accor spore, and also Pin Pin & team from Novotel Melaka. Hotel staffs are always smiling and approachable (front counter, restaurant, logistic, ballroom staff etc) & never say NO to our request. A very pleasant stay with you... Sincere gratitude and appreciation to each & everyone of you from Novotel Melaka.

I've stayed in different hotels in Melaka before and I am so glad I found this hotel. This hotel is undeniably the best in Melaka. The room was so clean, the beds very comfortable and the bathroom was spotless! The hotel's location is also very strategic that it takes a 15 mins walk to Jonker street, 5 mins walk to a lot of eateries and shopping complexes. To top it off, the price is very reasonable. It's definitely a great place to stay. I'd totally recommend this place to family and friends visiting Melaka.

We decided to go to Melaka but not sure which hotel to book. Saw this hotel at Agoda and decided to give a try. My family and I were very impressed when we entered the hotel. The hotel was new and clean. The bell boy was alert and assisted my daughter who had problem with her luggage (we entered from side door as we parked away from the main entrance). The check-in and check-out were very smooth. I had requested for connecting room during booking and was told not available. The staff was very helpful and upgraded my room for free and gave me connecting room. The corridor was fully carpeted and cosy. Rooms were spacious. The fittings were modern and luxurious. We were impressed and don’t believe that its 3 stars hotel ( especially compared to the hotel we just left. U can read my previous review). Bathroom was spacious with 2 separate basins and a bath tub. There was rain shower too. My daughters loved their rooms so much. There was a bathtub with modern blinds. Staffs- friendly and helpful. Facilities- There was children & adult pool, jacuzzi and sauna. There was a night market near the hotel that night. So many shop near by and 10 mins walk to nearest shopping centre. Breakfast was acceptable for the price we paid but can be improved. Carpark- free parking as hotel staff will issue parking coupons to hotel’s guest. Its open carpark but hotel provide umbrella if it rains. Overall , it was a pleasant experience to stay in this hotel. Will definitely book here again if we visit Melaka and recommend to others. (My daughter said she doesn’t want to share with her friends as she wants to keep it as her private gate away).

I am extremely impressive by Bayview Melaka Hotel. The Manager is very enthusiastic when I forgot the luggage in the bus. He tried his best to contact with the bus office to come back to me as soon as posible. I am very pleased with the service and the staffs as well as the manager. I enjoyed my time here. Thanks so much and I will recommend Bayview Melaka Hotel to my friends.

We were staying at hotel superior room. We requested king size bed and the room is quite big and ok. The fridge was spoiled but they changed a good one after I informed the staff. The cleaner came to clean our room when we were away and we left our laptop and iPad in the room. Nothing missing. :) Honest cleaners. Breakfast is not in the same building, we have to walk to the club house, walking distance about 5mins. I brought my own mini rice cooker to cook porridge for my son as he has multi food allergies. I think if you have kids, it’s best if you can drive a car. At least any emergency, you don’t need to wait and you can drive to the destination immediately, but make sure your GPS is working perfectly. If you are driving, you can purchase the ingredients or stuffs from Tesco Melaka Cheng (you can find it in google map). Tesco has almost everything, but the driving distance is about 30mins from A Famosa Resort. The first day, We managed to go to their water park, but the water condition is not very clean, sunblock lotion is needed as the sun is extremely hot, it was about 34-40 degree celsius, so we were keep looking for a shade... We went to their “Old West”, it’s a cow boy village that having some small games for you to earn points and redeem your prize, there has Red Indian fire show and some cow boy performance. We were planning to go Safari, but after checking the weather is about 40 degree celsius, we decided to cancel it, because it will be too hot for us sitting in the cage truck and visit those wild animals without fan or air con, was afraid we will get stroke as we are having a 3 years old child. Hope my info helps. :)

We booked the garden suite for a night, and i must say honestly, i am impressed. Looks exactly as pictured and i personally did not notice a speck of dirt in the room. Well-maintained and cleaned. To be fair, the hotel is fairly new so let's hope that they can upkeep their standards of cleanliness in the years to come. The staff of the hotel were generally very friendly. The hotel had adequate facilities, like a pool and the lobby was a nice place to chill out. The reason why i rated the hotel down was that i had initially tried booking rucksack caratel via its website. Unlike the usual hotels, where there's a platform to automate the procedure, it was done through email correspondence. It is kind of a hassle but that didnt deter me from booking the hotel. I was put off by the fact that the website had promotions that were falsely advertised. When I first corresponded with Rucksack's staff, she informed me that only one of the promotion was currently available, to which i then wanted to book already. Shortly after, another staff emailed me that the first staff which had corresponded with me had misinformed me. Despite the unavailability of the promotion, i had wanted to go ahead with the booking. Before i confirmed the booking with my credit card booking, i enquired about the cancellation/refund policy twice. Both times, the staff conveniently ignored my questions, which was frustrating. Alas, i decided to avoid the hassle altogether and booked the room through Agoda. In my opinion, the hotel could have done better in terms of customer service. There is a lack of consistency and communication between their staff. The staff is not adequately trained. (The second staff mistook my booking date despite me explicitly stating in the email the dates i was keen in + conveniently ignoring my questions). It is too much of a hassle to book through their website with little to no information provided prior to booking their hotel, which i think is pretty important. I do see

This is my first stay in this newly opened hotel in Melaka. The staff were friendly and helpful and alway greeted us with sincere smiles, something rare to see in another part of peninsular Malaysia. The room was spacious, mine was a Straits Suites which overlooking Straits of Melaka, hence the name of this hotel because no matter where your room at, either at left or right aisle, still you can see the Straits Of Melaka from the large glass plate window. However, the management should consider subscribing few Vision 4 channels for room entertainment since the one and only Fox Movie Premium channel still can't suffice the craving of in-room movie entertainment especially enjoying at midnight. The plus point, especially for Singaporeans, this hotel provides all MediaCorps TV channels. The pool, though a bit chilly because it was built on the topdeck of the building,provides bird's eye view of Melaka city and its surroundings. This hotel is a stone's throws away from shopping malls and tourist attractions, a walk through shophouses lane is not that tiring, though may be sweat a bit under scorching noon sun. Ample parking is available. I will definitely return to this hotel the next time I go to Melaka few weeks to come!

- great, great location - right gobsmack in the centre of ayer keroh - surrounded by tourist attractions in ayer keroh; zoo melaka, butterfly park, crocodile park, taman malaysia, etc - surrounded by shops, markets, mamak places and facilities outside the hotel - very near to ayer keroh toll plaza - close to other commercial areas and shopping malls which have karaoke, cinema, shooting range, food stalls & restaurants, shops, funfair, clubs, etc - food and service are good - the hotel is quite cozy, clean, quaint and peaceful - close driving distance to jasin, melaka city, batu berendam airport & other places in melaka - one of the best places to stay in ayer keroh - definitely one of the best value-for-money hotels in melaka

I had a lovely one night stay in Melaka (I live in Singapore, and went over just for a weekend getaway). The room exceeded my expectation, it was large and luxury. The location of the hotel was very good as well, in the heart of Little India. I didn't try the breakfast in the hotel, which could be purchased separately, as there were sufficient food options outside the hotel and took my breakfast at Selvam just across the road. It was a 5 minutes walk to the historical area of Melaka and a 7 minute walk to Jonker Street from the hotel. Equally, it was only 7 minutes to Bukit Cina and around 10-15 minutes to the shopping malls, if you prefer that. The staff was friendly and helpful and helped me to book a taxi and check availability at the restaurant (Nancy's kitchen - Peranakan food) where I was planning to eat dinner. The only improvement that I can suggest is for the hot water at the shower / jacuzzi. I could only get lukewarm water following the instructions on the wall. When the technician came over, he had to twist and turn the knob several times and the water got a bit warmer, but still not exactly hot. For enjoyment of a jacuzzi, hot water is a must, and lukewarm just doesn't make it enjoyable. Otherwise I had a very nice stay and will definitely recommend it to friends and stay again next time I visit Melaka!

Great hotel in Melaka. The lobby was excellent as well as the staff, and the rooms were also at a quality to match. The rooms were so comfortable and very spacious, and all of this came at a great price. It's close enough to the tourist areas with just a short taxi ride away. The only downside was every time I called the lobby to get a taxi, the taxi took 30 min or more to arrive, but that's hardly a reflection on the hotel so much as the taxi service in Melaka.

We stayed last Saturday in this hotel. We had booked a normal standard room with 2 breakfasts and front liner gave us 1 double bed and 1 single bed. It’s giving us more than adequate for our family of 2 adults and 1 child. Check in was smooth and performed very fast check-in procedue. Staffs were polite, friendly and well trained. The room was very clean and comfortable, basic amenities like slipper, iron & ironing board, hair dryer and toiletries is provided. Hotel has plenty of parking spaces available at in and outsides of the hotel. Good variety of food for breakfast and huge variety of food for choose. Enviroment café design in good and let for your choice to seat in aircond or in door open air. The coffee tasted very good similar to STARBXXX. My daughter has fun at swimming pool at hotel which located at M1 floor. Location on the hotel also easy access to town, even take one corner you already reach AEON, Tesco and all the amenities. Only a few minutes drive to Jonker Street. We families for sure will come back to King Green Hotel whenever were visiting Melaka. The stayed really value for money. If you do not like crowds this is the place for your own relax.

I heard great reviews about ibis hotels. This is my first time booking their hotel. Being new hotel in Melaka which completed like last year, the facilities are pretty new. The room is spacious and bed is very comfortable to sleep in. In additional, this is the first time I book that the hotel room got bolster! The location to Stadthuys and Jonker Street is about 15 mins walk away.

A truly wonderful experience! We really enjoyed it! The hotel is absolutely modern, clean, warm and cozy at the same time. Beautiful room with a full view window of the city and everything was new, clean, sophisticated and very much worth the money. None of the previous hotels in Melaka were as good as This was! I shall return to it many times in the future. The swimming pool on the roof top was a nice experience. The manager was a truly gracious, very polite and friendly lady, who took great care in seeing what was our idea of a good room. The bathroom had a wonderful shower with an elaborate glass panel. A sweet memory in our mind!

We were disappointed when we could not fly Jogjakarta with the volcano eruption. Impromptu , we booked a trip to Melaka instead. Via Agoda, we found this new hotel, The Settlement Hotel. Thanks to Agoda. The short two days trip to Melaka surprisingly turned out to be a wonderful one. The stay in The Hotel was really good quality. The bed was firm and comfy. We spend the whole day at the hotel, enjoying doing nothing, just chat, eat and relax. The hotel is simple. The surrounding has many very good local and delicious eateries. We tried the best Nasi Lemak, Ikan Assam Pedas and Devil Curry Chicken. Yummie...! We are frequent traveler and have visited many countries and places. I have to rate The Settlement Hotel as a really good choice of hotel for people who just wanted to work, chat and relax. It is truly beautiful and classic. A gem in Melaka. Our short trip in Melaka was really rewarding and was a great break. This is the kind of hotel we should have in Malaysia. Not big but friendly with attentive staff (we are impressed, this is perhaps the only hotel, we don't see cheap foreigners working in). Thanks Agoda for having giving us this choice hotel. From Rosalind and friends

Treasures Hotel & Suites are great value for money as I booked six rooms for my big family during our Melaka visit. It was also only a 10 minutes walk to the Jonker area through Little India. I would definitely book this boutique hotel again next time I visit Melaka. More importantly, the service provided by their manager, Brian, was above and beyond, as he arranged transportation to see the Encore-Melaka performance and afterwards transferred us to dinner at a Hakka restaurant he helped to book. He gave us discount on the tickets even though his staff were not able to apply the discount when booking the tickets online.

room yg sya dpt everything complete siap dgn kemudahan dapur yg selesa. cuma toilet berbau sedikit. management perlu tmbh kemudahan alas kaki pd toilet & ruang dapur sbb lantai jenis lincin. ada penanda arah kiblat utk muslim traveller. pemandangan laut yg cntik dari tingkat 20. lokasi tmpt tinggal dkt dgn bandaraya melaka & mudah cari mkn dgn kedai/restoran halal berdekatan. palig best ank2 happy sbb dpt main air kt swimming pool yg luas. tq

When we reached Melaka we travel using GPS, we have difficulty locating the hotel because of the hotel "Name Sign". We had passed by the hotel 3 times then we realized that its Midcity Hotel Melaka. We were looking for "MIDCITY" but the hotel name sign is too small. Should emphasize on the MIDCITY instead of MELAKA HOTEL. However, the check in was very smooth and fast, room was very spacious and clean. We love the rest room. The air-condition gets warm and cold intermittently and we have to adjust the temperature every now and then. Nice view of Melaka from our room window. Comfortable and value for money.

Although I only travelled alone, I chose this apartment as my accommodation in melaka. The price is quite affordable for a solo traveller and it's really quiet and of good conditions. You can enjoy the gym and swimming pool with no additional charge by using your room key. Although it has a short distance about 20mins walk from the apartment to Jonker Walk. However, using grab to book a car is quite cheap and just about 5 mins can reach Jonker. I strongly recommend tourist who are travelling in Melaka choose to stay here.

It was difficult to find at first but after calling the host, we managed to locate the hotel. We booked a 2 rooms apartment and everything is nice & clean. Far exceed my expectation. Besides, it is only a short 10 mins walk to jonker street. Hence for the 3 days in Melaka, it was a stress free trip because of the right hotel we booked that we don't have to drive around to eat or even sight seeing. Nothing to complain and for my next trip back to Melaka, this will surely be my choice.

The hotel was superp beautiful and scenery of Bandar Melaka when nighttime is amazing (city view room). Overall the room is clean and tidy, air conditioner working at it best dont feel hot when daytime and the best thing is the room was large event you book the most economical type, to many maybe its quite expensive but thing about your peace of mind its is worth it. Gym and swimming pool superp clean maybe because the hotel was brand new. Hotel staff was friendly, i requested iron and iron board thru hotel intercom and they sent it right away without delay. Toilet is clean and equip with hot water. Most recommended if you looking an hotel with old school design and touch.
