Fodor's Expert Review Casa del Rio Melaka
88 Jalan Kota Laksamana, Malacca, Melaka, 75200, Malaysia
Within walking distance to Jonker Street and next to the Malacca River, Casa del Rio is the top choice for a central Melacca location. You'll get a taste (literally) of the excellent service in store when you're greeted at reception with a cooling towel and refreshing ginger-lime sorbet. Stylish, spacious rooms include balconies with wonderful river views, and the rooftop infinity pool with phenomenal city and river vistas is a delight. The hotel restaurant's food, particularly the Peranakan lunch and the Sunday riverside jazz brunch, comes highly recommended.
