Kancil Guest House, Melaka, Malaysia - map - directions
image image image The simple facade of the building betrays the beauty inside this two storey traditional Malaccan Chinese house. Just ring the bell to be let into another world! An antique lounge set greets you!!

The relaxed team and the hospitality in general. A very nice place to stay. And do 'rent a bike' at the corner... that's better in Melaka.

The hostel was clean, quiet and relaxing. A very comfortable hostel, like being at home. The breakfast options were good and the hostel owner and the lady that cooked our breakfast were really friendly. A great option for a little peace and relaxation. Easy to get toby bus from Sentral Bus Station.

The peaceful, easy atmosphere. Beautiful garden and house. Lovely staff. Don't worry about the cool showers - they are great after a hot sticky Melaka. Double rooms are nice and spacious with chairs and table. You can choose your breakfast from a menu - it is cheap and good!!

beautyfully decorated historic house with little garden to relax
14 May 2007
although there's no hot shower, and sleeping room looks like jail; but special fitment, pretty garden with tropic plants and talkative and friendly staff really attract me to visit again in the future, strongly recommend to all backpackers and travellers who want to be close to nature with peaceful mind

The owners Daud and Lee are extremely helpful and do anything they can for you. Although breakfast is not included it is very cheap. A lovely atmosphere though not a party place as you have to be quiet but there is a garden where you can sit outside until late.
