Melaka Hostels

"The staff were all excellent (at the counter, housekeeping). The room and bed were clean, cool, the AC was strong, and the bathroom was also clean! There's a spot to hang out. There's also storage space under the bed. Next to the bed, there's a hook and a night lamp. Everything was great!!! No noise, I slept soundly. By the way, I booked for a solo female, the environment felt safe, no disturbances whatsoever. Parking is available in front of the hostel. Definitely will come again!"

"I had a really good stay at Discovery Youth Hostel, Melaka. The location is honestly perfect — right in the old town, walking distance to Jonker Street, cafes, night markets, and all the main attractions. The place is simple, clean, and comfortable, exactly what you expect from a good hostel. For the price, it’s totally worth it. The vibe is chill, good for solo travelers and backpackers, and it’s easy to meet people. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly stay in a great location in Melaka, this is a solid choice. Would definitely stay here again."

"This hostel is absolutely fantastic! The location is superb – super close to the Stadthuys, Jonker Street, and St. Paul's Hill. You can get here directly from Malacca Central Station by taking the M100 bus; it's about a 10-minute walk from the Hatten Hotel bus stop. The ground floor is a common area with a washing machine, dryer, kitchen, and even a media room, plus lots of cats! I stayed on the third floor this time, and you do have to carry your own luggage up, so keep that in mind if you have big bags. It's great that the bathroom, toilet, and washbasins are all on the same floor. The only minor point is that each bed only has one power outlet, which might not be enough, but there are extra outlets in the room that you can use with an adapter, so that makes up for it."

"I like the location as it is quite near to Jonker Walk, it is just merely 1km from the hotel. Taking a stroll to Jonker Walk along the river is quite fascinating. The room, i have no complaint. It is reasonable for the price i paid for as a backpacker. During my stay, the bathroom was cleaned and everything is great. The restaurant below the hostel is delicious and worth the money spent. Will be back for more!"

"Very good environment is next to the river. Very comfortable. Unfortunately, the bathroom has no chain. The water is easy to splash. The staff is very friendly and kind. Sleeping in a multi-person bed. There is a bar at the street at night. It is very lively. It may be better to have earplugs for light sleep."
