My wife and I stayed, for the second time, in February 2013. This is a little gem, being right in the heart of the tourist part of Melaka, with windows overlooking the river. It only has a few rooms, so you need to book well in advance. Staff are very helpful, and even loaned us umbrellas because it was raining.... More

If you are looking for updated accommodations with no character, then you should go elsewhere. However, if you are looking for the best location in the historic district, then you have found the place. From the unfinished wall board ceiling to the ancient light fixture to a worn out bathroom in dire need of a re-do, you will think you... More

We stayed here for 4 nights over Christmas. Firstly, have to say that Marcie and Henry are lovely, very gracious hosts, and very helpful. And the breakfast certainly better than some places we have stayed in within Malaysia. BUT. To say the place needs some work is an understatement. Our first room (3) was awful, big damp stains in the... More

We stayed here for 4 nights this X-mas. The location of the gust house is perfect, jonker walk is just around the corner which is full of small shops and restaurants. If you want to go to the nearby shopping malls its just a few minutes walk. The owner is super nice but the rest really needs some tlc. The... More

A pleasant heritage building with a rustic & homely feel situated beside the Melaka river. It's proximity to the river does make it rather noisy with the tourist boats running early until late at night by your window. Lovely wooden floors & stairs, rooms are small size & could do with some upgrading. On further investigation, the Heeren is rather... More

We had stayed at Heeren House some years ago when it was run by Liz and Bernard. Now it is under the supervision of Marcia and Henry who are gracious hosts. The rooms are still basic and have had nothing done to themsince but they are comfortable. The position is right next to the river and you can easily walk... More

Heeren house is a converted Godown (Warehouse) right next to the river in the centre of Melaka. It is around 300 yrs old and the conversion has been done very sensitively. Rooms are not massive but are spotless and comfortable and excellent value. However, the real bonus of staying here is the owners Marcia and Henry. What they don't know... More

Stayed for four nights in July while touring SE Asia. Room was basic, as expected, in charming old shophouse. A/C worked just fine; not always the case with older hotels. River view was great but river odor was not. Easy walk to Jonkers Street. Tasty breakfast included. Marcia and Henry are excellent hosts and went out of their way to... More

This lovely old house is right on the river and is full of atmosphere as well as being very well located. When the temperature rose too high we could nip back 'home' for half an hour's rest in the air-conditioning. Marcia and Henry are great hosts and very helpful. Excellent breakfasts are included in the cost of the rooms. The... More
