There are quite alot of bad reviews recently, some good reviews try to cover them. I think standard has drop alot.
The one downside I've read in the past was the highway in front of it. Got to go look-see if no one here has recent experience then.

Thinking of hopping over for a quick trip mainly to visit friends we've made there over the years, so mostly outdoors and not able to enjoy (and pay+travel more) the likes of rooms from DoubleTree and such. :grin:

I stay in Estadia Hotel pre-covid, just beside Hatten. Location very good. Don't know now good or not, didn't read any review.

I just read reviews, got quite a few bad reviews. I think it's old liao,
I don't mind old if things still work, like the lights, aircon, and shower, at least. But having to go next door just to have breakfast...

Worst case if it's only for a couple of nights, maybe I'll go stay in the Quayside container rooms. :grin:

I think they close off their breakfast side, I used to have breakfast there. Actually hatten is just next door. I find it ok, you pay less but dine with those paying more :ROFLMAO:

The reason I stopped staying there and switched to Hatten was the highway in front. :ROFLMAO:

That was back on 2008 and 2009. Once switched to Hatten, then never booked that again.

I remembered during that time always dashed across the highway. Now even more cars, so I think it's more so difficult. Can go below the highway, but will end up having to move away from Makhota Parade. Another way is to use the traffic lights at the other end. But I think that one gotta wait quite long.

Last time could see the sea right behind it. Now it's landlocked. Bleh.

Ya, noticed it's out of the way in a sense, especially away from the malls. Not good then.

Thanks for sharing 👍

I was told Pak Putra is the famous one, but never got a chance to try coz each time I got nearby I always had a Haagen Daz in my hand, bought just before reaching PP. :s13:

I wanna eat Naan, but when I googled Naan in Melaka, only Pak Putra and another far away one appeared. :ROFLMAO:

Wife is not so keen on the tandoori chicken at PP.

PS. Anyone tried Restaurant D' Tandoori House before? It is located near to Restoran Tong Sheng. From pictures, they do have naan.

Anyone knows the situation of the road closures in Melaka?

From what I read, when it started, it was only 6pm till midnight on Saturday.

It seems like the road to Christee Suites is affected as well. Just hope the road closure is not 24 hours. If not, dunno how to get there.

Is it this - The recent extension of the vehicle-free zone duration to three days, from 6 pm Friday to midnight Sunday, had sparked negative reactions from the public.
