Like staying in a museum - yummy local food at breakfast. Comfortable bed.

We had a wonderful stay at 5 Heeren. The breakfasts each morning featuring regional Peranakan dishes were delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful and made us feel like we were being welcomed into their home. The HOGA tea shop, operated by the host in the back, was also lovely. Our room had 2 beds and was adequate for our family of four. The preserved architectural features and decor is stunningly gorgeous as well, the pictures only give you a small glimpse of what you will find inside the common areas and inside your room. We found our room a bit noisy from street traffic and trishaws into the night, but nothing unexpected given the location and keeping the fan/AC setting on high helped.

We had three nights at 5 Heeren and really enjoyed our stay. The staff and manageress were all very welcoming and attentive to our needs throughout. The interior of the hotel, with its many antique pieces has the feel of an old-style Peranakan home, which makes it a really special and memorable place. We especially enjoyed the local breakfasts in the main hall area. In terms of its position, it's super-convenient for exploring the heritage of the old town and very close to the night market, yet quiet and peaceful as soon as you step inside. There are some very good restaurants further down the same street -- thanks to the hotel staff for the great recommendations! We hope to visit Malacca again at some point and would definitely come back to 5 Heeren!

A lovely 300 year old historic building converted into a gem right into the city centre. Packed with amazing antique and very friendly staff and owner
4.9
Immersed right in the heart of the city. With the owners bringing the culture right from the drink they served you upon checking in, to the intricacies of the baba experience embedded in your stay, to finally serving up authentic peranakan cuisine in the morning. Highly recommend to experience this at least once in your visits to Melaka.

There were problems in amenity kits. No vanity kit is available, although the box is there. So, empty box. There was no sewing kit on the first day, but second day found it. Sewing kit box is there. If you find difficulties to supply them, then the boxes you need to take away.
Other than that, staff were very kind and supportive, the hotel was nice.

This is one of the best hotels we have stayed at. The family suite was spacious, the beds comfortable, the bathrooms clean and new. The staff were very helpful and the morning’s breakfast incredible: we were treated to excellent local food, made from quality ingredients. The hotel is very well situated, in the heart of the historical district but it was quiet and peaceful.

We had a wonderful stay at 5 Heeren.The interior is amazing, the room was beautiful and clean and luxurious. The breakfast (all local dishes) was served at our table with extensive explanation by the owner herself. The location is excellent, near the river and just 100 m from the Stadhuys.
When we go back to Melaka we will definitely stay there again.
Special thanks to Izzah and the rest of the staff.

I must say this is a jewel hotel in Malacca. Amazing peranakan items and all other collectibles and artifacts from different part of the world . It is a collection of museum . The staff are friendly , quality breakfast , very clean hotel . The owner and family are very friendly as well . The owner chat with us every morning during breakfast sharing with us about peranakan cuisine and her collections of items in the hotel. The location is excellent for sight seeing, shopping and food . The room we stay is not extremely quiet , a bit of muffled noise from nearby bar but didn’t affect our sleep at all .
I will recommend my family and friends to stay in this hotel .

It is an impressive Nyonga residence and it is a museum residence with amazing decors and antiques the owners collected over the years. I strongly recommend people stay in this boutique house hotel to immerse yourself in the Paranakan/Nyongya culture.

Truly immersive experience, like a homestay as a guest in an exquisite Peranakan house, complete with a great Asian breakfast (best Ondeh Ondeh we’ve eaten) and warm, personal service. Stayed in the Opium Pearl room and everyday was a homecoming to a traditional but cosy room with modern bathroom. First time ever in a canopy bed - like being in a period drama, and so much more special than your typical hotel room! Although there were other guests, overall felt very private. Bonus to have met the cute Chubby Chow!

This is such an amazing hotel! Our room is absolutely gorgeous. And the location is so convenient-walking distance to everything. The breakfast is mind-blowing-one gets to sample all the great Nyonya food. Not to mention the super friendly and helpful hotel staff, who are eager to share their Peranakan heritage.

Good central, quiet location and excellent breakfast with local specialties. Good location on a historic street near the Jonker Market. A little expensive for Malaysia. Got a few mosquito bites there.

It was like staying in a living Peranakan museum, with plenty of antique Peranakan furniture, yet the amenities were modern. Potted plants in the courtyard provided a beautiful subtle touch. Staff Nora and Sara were very helpful and friendly. The location was ideal, being within walking distance of the historical sites, Malacca river, and the vibrant Jonker Walk weekend night market. Breakfast was excellent, especially the laksa and kueh.

Location is great. Hotel is charming while still maintaining a high standard of facilities and service.

Lovely helpful staff. The room and bathroom had everything one could want and there was additional lounge room. Breakfast was extensive and offered the Paranakan foods that are typical of the Straits. Location is central to the river, old city streets and museums.

The location is great for exploring Jonker Walk and the canal, which is teeming with activities especially over the weekend. The hotel staff were all very helpful and amiable. The breakfast spread was exciting. The accommodation was like a step back in historical times.

Conveniently located. Easy access to most attractions. Minutes walk to food eatery, police station, H&M and San shu gong, jonker walk and christ church , river cruise and etc.
Hotel staff Ms Vicky Chan was warm and attentive to details and made our breakfast session in the hotel an unforgettable experience.
We stayed during weekdays, the rooms were not fully occupied. It was very quiet and peaceful.
Initially we were quiet worried with steep steps on the traditional old stairs to our room at third level. There was another easier option to climb up and down via the new stairs near the back of hotel.
Bathroom was bright and clean.
Overall experience is pleasant and unique.

We stayed from 11th to 13th October. The appearance of Baba Nyonya style is also beautiful, but it was surprisingly wider than I imagined when entering inside. Also, the interior was decorated with antique furniture and works of art, as if it was like an art museum. The room surrounded by antiques was very clean and beautiful, and I was able to stay slowly. Breakfast was traditional Malaysian cuisine, which was delicious, and the arrangement was very beautiful. Also, all the staff were friendly and could stay comfortably.

Booked 3 nights in 5 Heeren for our babymoon as I really loved the pictures of the Peranakan architecture and décor of this hotel. I must say the place looks nicer than in the pictures! (too bad no photography allowed) We stayed 2 nights in Oriental and 1 night in The Grand Boulevard Suite, both rooms were nicely decorated each in its own unique way, very clean bathrooms. The staff were all very friendly and approachable and always helpful. This hotel was converted from an authentic traditional Peranakan house so naturally there isn't any elevator/swimming pool, which I totally understand and was not a big problem coz my husband took care of carrying our luggage up the stairs but it was still a little tiring for me (5-month pregnant at the time) to climb 3 storeys to Oriental after a long day's walk around the old town, so those of you travelling with old people you might wanna consider if the elders would complain about that. The Grand Boulevard is on the second floor so it's a bit better. I love the different breakfast meals with traditional Peranakan food and kuehs we get every single morning. The staff keep everything in the hotel in very good order, plants and greeneries are well-maintained, everything is so clean and the floorboards don't squeak when you walk on it like in some of the older buildings (I guess they must have reinforced the floorboards or something when the place was refurbished). The whole place is very quiet, calm and elegant, just love it.
