"Hotel Puri is a beautiful heritage property in an excellent location for exploring historic Melaka. Jonker Walk, the river and many of the main sights are within easy walking distance. The heritage character of the hotel was one of the highlights, and the staff were friendly and helpful. We also appreciated being allowed to check in early, and breakfast was included and convenient.
The biggest drawback was our double twin room, which was extremely small. There was very little usable floor space—we actually had to move the two beds together just to create enough space to lay down a prayer mat. With luggage in the room, it felt particularly cramped. I would recommend checking the room size or booking a larger room category if space is important to you.
One thing to know if arriving on a weekend: road closures around Jonker Walk can prevent Grab from reaching the hotel entrance. Our Grab had to drop us near the Jonker entrance, followed by roughly a 10-minute walk with our luggage. When leaving, we found the area near Tamil Methodist Church, about a five-minute walk from the hotel, much easier for Grab pickup.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The location and heritage atmosphere are excellent for a short visit to Melaka, but I would choose a larger room if staying again."
