A superb heritage hotel set on the banks of the river in Melaka where Malay and Chinese traditions combine in a rare culture called Peranakan- which is incorporated into every aspect of The Majestic Malacca- from the outstanding cuisine to the unique treatments in the spa. Western colonial influences also play a part in this intriguing melting pot to produce a chic mix of Portuguese porcelain floors- teakwood fittings- Dutch antiques and windows swathed in silk. The Peranakan- based Spa Village is the only one of its kind in the world with treatments that include bird s nest facials and cooling egg-rolling body therapy. Take a trishaw ride around the town and discover the red-brick Dutch buildings- intriguing temples and the narrow old shop houses on Jonker Street. Visit the Baba Nyonya Heritage Museum to gain an insight into this fascinating culture. The Majestic Malacca is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
