ALL ASPECTS OF THE HOTEL ECHO THE ILLUSTRIOUS
An integral part of Malacca’s colourful history, The Majestic beautifully reflects the heritage of this bustling port and town.
Occupying a grand 1920’s colonial mansion, and a newer building that mimics the style of the original architecture, The Majestic enjoys a picturesque riverside setting in the heart of town. From the original porcelain flooring to the teakwood fittings and wonderful antiques, all aspects of the hotel echo the illustrious, multi-cultural history of the city – now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Designed with four poster beds, beautiful silk upholstery and bespoke furnishings, the rooms and suites are incredibly inviting. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide plenty of natural light alongside views of the Malacca River. In the restaurant, diners are treated to a medley of cuisines, including Nyonya specialties, while the award-winning spa delivers treatments inspired by the Peranakan (a blend of Chinese and Malay influences) culture. After a days’ sightseeing, the saloon-style bar is the place to unwind.

We had a wonderful safari experience in South Luangwa, Zambia this September. Despite a few unexpected setbacks behind the scenes, everything ran seamlessly for us. Our driver and guide were outstanding, and the standard of accommodation was truly first class.
