Baba House Melaka

Nestled within the winding streets of Melaka, Baba House stands as a testament to the rich cultural tapestry that defines this UNESCO World Heritage city. Recently, I had the pleasure of immersing myself in the timeless charm of Baba House, an experience that seamlessly intertwined history, culture, and hospitality. Upon arrival, the grand façade of Baba House exudes an aura of nostalgia, transporting visitors to a bygone era of Peranakan splendour. Stepping through the entrance, I was enveloped in the warmth of traditional Peranakan hospitality, as the friendly staff greeted me with genuine smiles and a warm welcome. The interior of Baba House is a marvel to behold, meticulously restored to its former glory, yet tastefully adorned with modern comforts. Intricate Peranakan motifs adorn the walls, while antique furniture and artifacts offer a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of the Peranakan elite. Every corner of the house is steeped in history, inviting guests to embark on a journey through time. My accommodation at Baba House was nothing short of luxurious. The rooms, adorned with ornate wooden furniture and vibrant Peranakan textiles, exuded an air of elegance and refinement. Modern amenities such as air conditioning and high-speed internet seamlessly blended with the heritage ambiance, ensuring a comfortable stay without compromising on authenticity. Beyond its architectural grandeur and culinary delights, Baba House offers a myriad of experiences to enrich the soul. Guided tours provide insights into the rich history and heritage of the Peranakan community, while hands-on workshops

The location was very ideal and it is a beautiful hotel, reflecting the peranakan culture. They play a movie each night at the front and if I didn't have children, I would have thoroughly enjoyed it with some food and drinks. The shallow pool is good for lounging and for small children as they can play without parents worrying too much. They must have been replacing the umbrellas as when it is hot, there is no reprieve from the sun and the bar is basically unserviced. In terms of cleanliness, it is good in our room, however there is mould at the bottom of the air conditioning and also in the shower. We didn't use the breakfast service but did not hear great things about it so we didn't feel like we were missing out.

Exceptional in every way ! Our stay at Baba House was nothing short of perfect. From the warm, welcoming staff who went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, to the immaculately clean and beautifully designed rooms, every detail exceeded our expectations, from the cozy bedding to the thoughtful little extras—made us feel truly pampered. The house breakfastwas a culinary delight, offering fresh, flavorful options that started our days on a high note. It’s rare to find a place that balances elegance with such genuine hospitality. Thank you for an unforgettable experience—we’ll be recommending you to everyone and can’t wait to return somewhere in time …

Really a nice place to stay when travelling around the Melaka old town. Convenient location with Baba Nyonya decorations. You can walk to most of the attractions and restaurants. Staffs are nice and friendly, and the room is clean and quiet. You could get Chinese tractional coins as a souvenir which could be also redeemed for a drink at the reception or the rooftop bar. Some spaces are designed for displaying some cultural artifacts.
