Your greeted by Raymond , who takes the time to welcome you to not only the guest house, but also Melaka . The map and information he provided made our stay in this charming historical place memorable . And the home made cakes provided put icing on the cake!

Like a home away from home, with plenty of communal spaces, we loved staying at Roof Top Guest House. Mani, the owner, bakes cakes every day and you can eat them, plus free fruit, drinking water, tea and coffee whenever you like. It was great to be able to eat something after getting up in the morning, but without having... More

No wonder this place is so highly rated by everyone and has won the Tripadvisor award for last year. We stayed here for just one night on a stopover from Singapore to KL, but the owners were extremely polite and the lady spent quite some time with us explaining the entire surrounding area, where to go and what to eat....

Bookings essential, especially on weekends. Booked for 3 nights, ended up staying 7. Pros: lovely old building remodeled with stylish modern touches (the water feature next... More

It is located edge of the China town. Owners are so nice, Mani, the wife bakes cakes, cupcakes, brownies, all kinds of stuff all the times. Techinically no breakfast included, but you can eat anything at the table in the kichen. The house is nicely furnished with peranakan style, and the roof top is the best. They have a gearden... More

The couple that run the hostel made my stay very pleasurable. They were always so friendly and helpful in every way possible. The location is also very good close to all the UNESCO heritage sights. No complaints! Everything on all the reviews earlier I read were correct. Also the cakes made by Mani tasted amazing as well.
