"Very helpful staff Excellent wifi Huge (too big?) room for 1 person I didn’t try the breakfast or pool so no comments about them. I had a room at the back on a high floor & traffic noise was really loud during the day but thankfully it went to almost 0 after dark so I slept ok. Not a lot of places of interest close by but there were good eating places across the road then go to the left then first right towards the river The keycards were frustrating as numerous times I had to get them...

Top Malacca River Hotel Reviews

Courtyard @ Heeren Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The courtyard Heeren Boutique Hotel is centrally located within the historic Old Town, in a beautiful traditional Malacca building. The room and bed were very comfortable and quiet, the shower and bathroom was great, and the staff were always friendly and helpful. I had a good stay here. The only comment is that although there is a window in the room facing an interior light court, the wood shutters were always closed. It would have been nice to have the shutters open during the day with a blind or curtain on the inside of the window for privacy. Otherwise, I did have an excellent stay and would recommend this hotel to anyone."

"Puri Melaka interior is gorgeous and like a peranakan museum! Its location is spot on. All the touristy venues, eateries and shopping areas are within walking distance. The hotel standard room is immaculate, clean and well maintained, however its bathroom is tiny. Breakfast is ok and nothing negative to mention. I will consider staying here when I am visiting Melaka again."

"The hotel is well-situated near some quaint coffee shops & sarabat shops with authentic Malaysian food. 😋😋 There’re stalls which open at night too. The hotel staff are all cheery & very helpful. I had called Housekeeping for an extra firm pillow & it was delivered in less than 10 minutes. 💫 Breakfast is also excellent with a wide variety & it is of good quality as well. The laksa is a must-try!! ❤️‍🔥 All in all, a wonderful stay here!! 朗Highly recommended!! 💞"
