[2025 Melaka Stay] Travel Guide for 1825 Gallery Hotel (Updated Jun)

🌟This hotel is an old building but has been maintained quite well and the design of the lobby is nice so as soon as you enter the hotel you can feel the boutique vibe. 📍Location of the hotel is excellent; Next to the Melaka river, close to Jonker Walk (where the night market is on the weekends) and the Red Square/Dutch Square with all the historic buildings, lots of good food options close by as well. 🌟The room was reasonably spacious and clean, airconditioned, bathroom is well-sized & equipped with basic amenities, and wifi is reasonably strong. - Some of the rooms look into the external courtyard or onto the blank wall of the adjoining building. The best and most expensive rooms look onto the Melaka river & with balcony. 🚘 The open-air parking is free for hotel guests but is not secured at night and can be quite tight to maneouvre into and out of the carpark. ✌🏻EXTRA TIPS: This is one of the expensive hotels in the town, but is still good value. Price per night starting RM180+ weekends. Although I enjoyed my stay here, However, i would recommend for traveller to consider stay here if you plan to explore the town as the hotel’s location is close proximity to many options & to enjoy the river view. Instead, there are other option of hotels that provide the same convenient service & comfortable stay nearby Jonker Walk & Mahkota Parade area, but with reasonable price/ way more cheaper price. #tripblazers #awesomepic #staycation #vacation #trip #solotrip #hotel #explore #tripguide #holiday

#springitinerary I stayed at 1825 Gallery Hotel during my trip to Melaka, and wow — what a charming surprise! Located right in the heart of the old town, the hotel sits quietly by the Melaka River, with lovely Nanyang-style architecture that instantly made me feel like I was walking through a Southeast Asian dream from decades past. The front desk staff spoke Mandarin and were super friendly. They asked for a RM 300 (or RMB) deposit, preferably in cash — easy to get back when checking out. The best part? I could walk to all the major spots — Dutch Square, Jonker Street, Baba & Nyonya Museum — in just 5 to 10 minutes. Perfect for slow exploration. Honestly, I loved the vibe so much that I’m already planning to bring my parents here next time! #Melaka #MalaccaOldTown #NanyangVibes #HeritageHotel

Bot for light sleeper. Room noise insolation is very poor! Sound of room next door, corridor and even water pipe!

#Jonker #River melaka

This hotel is at a very strategic place which is a walking distance to jonker street. Around the hotel there was a lot of food which included western food, asian food and a lot of cafes and bar also. Surely can find food either in the morning or at night🤭 The hotel has a free parking space but it comes first come first serve, as the parking lot is quite small also, make sure you have a good parking skill. #couplestrip #deliciousfood #malacca

#malaysia The 1825 Gallery Hotel is a pearl amongst the heritages of Malacca. Located at the heart of Melaka, this boutique hotel features a limited number of rooms for its guest due to its small heritage building. Back in history, it used to be an important storehouse for traders coming from all over rhe world. Today, it has been turned into one of the best hotels in Malacca with its history intact. It holds great significances that are beyond its physical appearance today – it is more than just being a hybrid architecture influenced by the British and the Chinese – but on a more profound level, it represents the spirits of the Chinese workforce that had contributed significantly to the trade of Malacca – it’s a heritage beyond compare.

Have to experience from the hotel , the eateries , the walkabout, then only you can enjoy and repeat your trip.

This is a Boutique hotel that showcases the Peranakan architectural style that is situated at the heart of Malacca. It is very close to popular spots at the same time tuck away close to the river to give a calm and peaceful moments. Cafes are just across the river at jonker street. you can find famous cafes/bars like Hard Rock Cafe and the famous The Daily Fix Cafe [A MUST TRY!!] Along the hotel stretch, you will be greeted by the rich historical sites like the Red house, Museum and Forts. After a whole day of walking absorbing the portuguese history, you can head down to the mega malls to cool off and have some dessert, massage and shopping therapy. I do recommend you to Malacca for a short trip!
