The place to stay in Main Bandar HilirThis is our second stay here. The owner (Ridzuan) was nice, invited us for Eid dinner festivities. The reason we stayed here was the walking distance to the mosque, for Eid prayers and the kids were able to walk from hotel to Jonker street within minutes during the night, not to mentioned, hotel has it's own parking space (not many has parking readily available in Bandar Hilir). The beds are nice, enough to cover RESTING for busy days as we needed to travel to Muar (around 50kms and back). rnSurprisingly, my SIL booked the same hotel on another website, and the room cost more (no kidding), we used Booking.com and for 2 days, 2 rooms cost us around RM700 ++, as for my SIL, it was RM1000++.rnrnThe coffee & tea facility is only available at the ground floor pantry instead of being in the room. Again, because it was Eid Fitri, we needed the iron board which we had to share with others at the corridor BUT since we were the only people staying at level 2 with my SIL, along with another family, it WASN'T a big deal (sharing is caring).Non
Cara Hulu Hotel in Melaka exceeded all my expectations and is easily one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at in Malaysia. The location is perfect—right in the heart of the city, close to major attractions, yet nestled in a quiet area for a peaceful retreat. What sets this hotel apart is its incredible staff. From the moment I arrived, they were welcoming, friendly, and always ready to assist with a smile. Their local knowledge and attention to detail made my stay seamless and enjoyable. The cleanliness of the hotel is impeccable. It’s by far the freshest and most well-maintained property I’ve encountered in Malaysia. The rooms are thoughtfully designed, spacious, and equipped with modern amenities, ensuring a comfortable stay. The overall ambiance is warm and inviting, making it feel like a true home away from home. If you’re visiting Melaka, I can’t recommend Cara Hulu Hotel enough. It’s a perfect blend of excellent service, an ideal location, and top-notch accommodations. My stay was unforgettable, and I’ll definitely return on my next trip!
