Holiday Inn

Melaka City


Holiday Inn promises chain-brand reliability and comfort if not the most snazzy ambience. The generously sized rooms are not the most charming you'll find in town, but they are modern and comfortable enough, the staff is keen to assist and it's value for money.

An occasional courtesy shuttle bus putters the short journey from the hotel to Mahkota Parade and Dutch Sq – handy as the hotel is located on the wrong side of a roaring main road that can be difficult to cross on foot.
