Question about Malacca

[Andrew833]

Oh, once I'd to stay a night at a hotel around Jonker itself coz CdR was fully booked in the midst of my almost week-long stay. Same, I used CdR for my rides.

Have even contemplated on staying at Quayside Hotel, but I'd definitely stay away from weekend stays there. Unless one enjoys the noises from the loud tourists during the day and people who never sleeps, at night.

You solo very easy.
My first time in Melaka, stay in Estadia Hotel, can walk to Jonker and attraction nearby. Now grab better

Like I said, it occupies the former Renaissance Ramada. The building is not new.

I don't drive, and likely to stay around the Jonker area and move around using Grab, so I thought to/fro Jetti Quayside would be the better option for me

Have you gone for the river cruise, is it worth it? Anything to see along the way?

Jonker Street Pasar Malam is every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night, right?

Would it be advisable to go on a Friday night to avoid the crowds on Saturday and Sunday?

on other weekday nights at Jonker Street, apart from those Pasar Malam, are shops open till late, especially those makan ones?

Yes, pasar malam from Fridays to Sundays. Stalls normally start setting up by 5ish.

I normally go on Friday, to beat the weekend tourist crowd that arrive around Saturday noon. In fact, whenever I wish to visit the pasar malam, I'd go on Friday or Thursday if possible. And to visit the non-crowded malls, I'd only leave on Monday or Tuesday.

Nights along Jonker Street, normally left the pubs and such open. IIRC a couple of makan places might stay open too... If you're around Jonker at night looking for food, can consider walking along the road in front of the nearby Casa del Rio Hotel and Residences to Jalan Kota Laksamana. About 5 to 10 mins walk.

My past experiences were that all 3 nights were crowded.

Certain sections will be more crowded than some, due to more people standing around.
