The Majestic Malacca is an elegant luxury hotel set in a restored 1920s building with a modernized annex attached. The 54 rooms and suites are beautifully designed, with luxe marble bathrooms alongside modern amenities that include minibars and flat-screen TVs. The spa is a highlight, with menu of ancient Chinese remedies, and there's a modern gym as well. Unfortunately, the plunge pool is a bit small and the free Wi-Fi is slow. A free breakfast buffet is provided, and there’s also a stylish saloon-style bar and afternoon tea. There's few other luxury hotels in the area, and visitors seeking a boutique property in the heart of the action might want to consider the Courtyard @ Heeren Boutique Hotel, directly on energetic Jonker Walk, where rates are far cheaper.

Jonker Boutique Hotel is a three-pearl property located directly on popular Jonker Street. Decor is an interesting combination of both modern and period features, with many original Art Deco details preserved for character and ambience. The 16 rooms are pleasantly decorated, with contemporary features like hardwood floors and attractive accent walls plus flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and electric kettles. Amenities like the on-site restaurant and free Wi-Fi are nice, but more impressive features -- such as swimming pools and gyms -- are located at Jetty Suites, a 10-minute drive away. For travelers who'd prefer their amenities to be more conveniently located on-site (and for similar rates), check out the Hotel Equatorial Melaka instead.

Casa del Rio Melaka is an upscale riverside hotel in historic central Melaka that's just over five minutes from popular Jonker Street on foot. The beautiful property has a riverside terrace where guests can dine, and there’s a rooftop infinity pool with a swim-up bar. The 66 rooms have charming Mediterranean decor, private balconies (some overlooking the river), and bathrooms with separate showers and tubs. It's one of the best hotels in town, but return guests report that rooms are starting to show a little wear and tear. Guests should compare rates with another area favorite, the Majestic Malacca, a luxury property with swish Dutch colonial decor and a history dating back to 1920.

With spacious rooms and plenty of amenities, the Holiday Inn Melaka offers a lot of bang for the buck. The upscale chain hotel is located in a busy area next to a shopping mall and within a reasonable walk of historic sights, though popular Jonker Street is a hike from here. The property has two restaurants and a bar, an outdoor infinity pool, a fitness center with modern equipment, and a spa. The 275 contemporary rooms include free Wi-Fi and sea views in some, and guests can also opt for Kids' Suites with bunk beds. The similarly priced Hatten Hotel Melaka is a bit closer to the city's popular sights and also serves a free breakfast buffet.
