    If location and a reasonably-priced hotel room is what you're after, stay at the Equatorial. If not, everything will be a sore point for you. Since this is Melaka's more popular hotels, the lobby will be overcrowded with folks, the buffet breakfast will be catered for masses and the service will be so-so. The rooms are somewhat plain too. Perhaps the only saving grace is the big, luxurious pool. There are 3 interconnecting pools at this place and lots of palm trees to give you a secluded feel. A must, given that there are always lots of tourists..

    The pool , only the pool.

    Hotel Equatorial Melaka is an international business resort ideally located in the heart of the historical precint of Malacca.

    • Equatorial Melaka is located in town, enabling travellers to go around either on taxi or foot ( i prefer the latter...)

    Hotel Equatorial Melaka: Hotel Close to Mahkota Medical Centre    Check Rates

    • I recommend Hotel Equatorial highly. you can see Mahkota Medical Centre from the hotel and you can walk there in minutes. It also has the best Nyonya restaurant, wtih Chef Bong at the helm. The hotel staff are very friendly including the concierge, Amin.
    My favourite hotel is of course Hotel Puri. it is a very long walk from there to MMC but a good trikshaw ride. If the person is infirm in any way, I recommend Hotel Equatorial. Both Equatorial and Mahkota ( i have stayed there once, very oriented towards local tourism )are very close.

    • I didn't stay here; but did go to the coffeeshop and used its restroom facilities as well as the reception/concierge desk to ask about stamps. Very nice service. Receptionists spoke very good English and I understood them (and they understood me.)

    Tall building and in the centre of the historical section of town.

    • the last time we were here, we stayed in the equator club rooms coz there were no other rooms left.. pretty pricey and don't see much difference from the standard room.. pretty small and crampy.. but it being one of the newer ones, it's very well kept.. if you wanna be walking distance to everything and yet have a nice hotel, this is the place to go..

    we were given a room in the upper floors, so we got a decent view of the city.. with some historical places within sight.. other than that, they have all the trimmings of a 4-star hotel.. oh, rooms come with a buffet breakfast which is pretty okie.. :)

    The only five star hotel in Melaka, it deserves its rating. Wonderfully friendly staff, very attentive, especially Eveline at the front desk and Randhir who is trying to imitate eveline's good qualities..
    Excellent food at its five restaurants, possibly also the best in Melaka.
    Marble stair cases, chandeliers in the lobby...
    close to the city centre and the shopping plaza at mahkota plaza..

    The Dim Sum which I cannot partake in many of the chinese restaurants in Malaysia ( because of too many pork based dishes, I am Jewish ) is offered here as Brunch on
    Sundays... and it is Halal.. safe for a jew to eat!!

    Service at the Front Desk
    Seri Nyonya Melaka Cuisine
    Phoenix Szechuan and Cantonese Restaurant
    Comfortable large rooms
    Good Views over Malacca

    Malaysia has heavily invested in some of the african countries.. Ghana, Tanzania and Zimbabwe among them.. In South America, I think it is Bolivia.. The current president of Bolivia grew up in Kuala Lumpur..
    In any case, with the current despotic regime in Zimbabwe, it does leave a little distaste that the Govt of Zimbabawe, meaning Mr Mugabe is part owner of Hotel Equatorial!!!
