    “Great Stay”

    The location is very good and convenient for exploring the area. Many attractions and food places are nearby. Free wifi and welcome drink available. Parking lots busy on weekends, but parking availble near the hotel. We stayed in the Deluxe King Room with balcony. The room was comfortable and well maintained. Our first room had an aircon issue, but the staff assisted us quickly and helped us change to another room, which we really appreciated. Cleanliness was good and the hotel was well kept. The noise level was acceptable, and the hotel also thoughtfully provides ear plugs for guests. Service was great. The staff were helpful and responsive whenever we needed assistance. Amenities were good as well. My daughter especially enjoyed playing with the water feature at the rooftop area. It is not a swimming pool, but it was still very fun for kids. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and we will definitely come back again whenever we visit Melaka. 😊

    “Excellent location with good staff”

    This is the second time I stayed in this hotel, due to its good location (very near to jonker), excellent cleanliness of everything in the hotel (room, bed, toilet, common space), friendly staff who speak good English. Love the interiors of this building, down to its details of Peranakan heritage. We are very particular of the towels and toiletries but must say they surpassed our expectations. Only thing is hope the building maintenance can last - rooft top bar no longer in function, our sink cover is missing. The room power points availability also varied from room to room - my first stay in room 208 has 2 PowerPoints near the TV, but not the room 222, making the charging in 222 limited esp the bedside power point was already used for alarm clock, so we unplug that instead. Still, overall, good and worth our stay and will definitely come back to stay here if we come to Melaka again.

    “Home away from home ”

    We absolutely loved our stay at Baba House Melaka. 🥰 The décor is stunning— since it’s a refurbished home of an old Peranakan family, it beautifully preserves the traditional furniture and atmosphere, with just the right amount of modern touches. The room was very comfortable and cosy, and the service was impeccable. The staff were warm, attentive and always happy to help with any questions we had. The location is also a huge plus—just minutes from Jonker Street and the Melaka River. Melaka is best explored on foot, and we found so many lovely small shops and cafés around the hotel. Everything was so convenient. Definitely a hotel to keep in mind if you’re staying in Melaka. ❤️🤩

    “Nice & enjoyable stay”

    From the outside, the hotel looks quite ordinary, but once you step inside, it is a lovely surprise. The interior design is beautiful and thoughtfully done, and the entire place is exceptionally clean. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Although the hotel has limited parking spaces, they went the extra mile by arranging for security to keep an eye on our car when we had to park outside, which we truly appreciated. The location is excellent — we were very satisfied, and it is within easy walking distance to Jonker Street. There are many beautifully designed spots within the hotel that are perfect for photos. Overall, a very pleasant stay and highly recommended.

    “Beautiful hotel with great location ”

    Stayed here for 3D2N. The location of the hotel is fantastic. The hotel itself is very pretty, with a lovely Baba-Nyonya style design — very charming and well thought out. The room assigned to me seemed to be a handicap-accessible room, as the toilet facilities were designed for that purpose. The room was located on Level 1 — it was spacious, and housekeeping did an excellent job keeping it clean throughout my stay. However, it was a bit noisy in the morning as we could hear doors opening and closing with a loud bang. It was slightly irritating, but I guess there’s no choice since we were on Level 1 and could also hear the carpark doorbell ringing.
