The Golden Legacy Hotel, Melaka

Advantages: Good cheap hotel and excellent location
Disadvantages: Busy - but very popular

...It was a very good place to stay - it was a cheap hotel with a convenient location. The prices where very good and the staff friendly. When traveling in Malacca its important to make sure you are not too in the centre of town because traffic is very bad there, so this hotel on the edge of town offers the best solution. Its a friendly place with parking right outside and this nice chicken restaurant right outside on the ground floor. The coffee shops are near by. The rooms as good and many types if you need a large room for a family or your relatives are staying with you. It was nice to have an adjoining room for my kidss. It recommend it again to anyone....

For those wishing to stay in the recreated ambience of the Baba... Read review

Advantages: Tasty food & cheap
Disadvantages: non

...Whenever I heard about Melaka, I though of it's tasty local hawker food. I have been staying in Melaka for a year. The only past time that i like very much is to eat! The food is cheap and there are a wide variety to choose from. The best one is fried oyster with egg. That stall has been there for about 50 years, I heard from a local! And there is always a long queue, but people are willing to wait. So, I think you can imagine how much the people there like that fried oyster with egg. Another must-try is satay celup. It is a stick of seafood which is boiled in satay saurce. Yummy...... Read review
