Casa Del Rio Melaka Hotel

Location of the hotel was perfect as is just a stone throw away from Jonker street. Anytime you are tired, can just drop back to the hotel and have a rest. Room was large with good /AC and ceiling for better circulation. Even the balcony also has a ceiling fan making the room cooler under the scorching heat. Staff in the hotel were all friendly and helpful. and also attentive to your needs. No problem as they all speak very good English. However, you do have to pay a bit more the location on the service this hotel provided, but overall, no regrets. Nothing more I could ask for just continue giving the guest the great service that you provide.

The Casa del Rio Melaka is one such classic colonial-style hotel. Location of the hotel was perfect as is just a stone throw away from Jonker street. Anytime you are tired, can just drop back to the hotel and have a rest. Room was large with good aircon and ceiling for better circulation. Even the balcony also have a ceiling fan making the room cooler under the scorching heat. Staff in the hotel were all friendly and helpful. and also attentive to your needs. No problem as they all speak very good english. No in-dining menu in the main folder, kitchen was closed for in-dining services at 10.30 pm when official information reads 11pm.

After being checked-in, I was greeted by a very considerate concierge who escorted me under seat near the large water feature area, here she gave me a cold towel and a sorbet, both highly crucial things in the heat of Malaysia. Shortly after I cooled myself off, I went to my room, it was spectacular to say the least. It was well taken care of, it was clean and pest free and above all it was very homely and very comfortable. The room I was in had one large bed with a balcony, the bathroom of the room was gigantic so much so that it feels like its own room. The bed was comfortable and clean, as was the bathroom, in it there was a shower and a bath, bath salts are included as well, and even the cutest little rubber ducky. The in room entertainment is also there, the satellite TV service should occupy the entertainment needs from the little ones to adults. There is in-room WiFi as well but I never got the chance to test its speed and its stability since I bring my own hotspot. The only problem I had with the room was the air conditioning, it was cool, but not very cold and it takes a very long time to even get to that point, so I recommend leaving the AC unit on even when you're away from your room. I also had the opportunity to try out the breakfast, lunch and dinner spreads, while the selections can be limited compared to other high end hotels, it is very tasty and varied just enough to keep your taste buds entertained. I recommend the hotel's lasagna, it was very nice. As for the facilities, there was a gym and a relatively large swimming pool as well. The location is pretty decent as well, there are a lot of surrounding cultural landmarks however I recommend bringing in some water and some sunscreen as you do. The people of Casa Del Rio were kind, courteous and professional, from the concierge, to the waiters to the housekeeping staff. I was very well taken care of and not once did I feel disappointed when it came to service.
