Hatten Hotel, Melaka (2 May-4 May 2015)

For our mid year break, we wanted to do something a bit different, instead of doing the annual PD/ Theme Park type of holiday, we decided to visit our hometown, Malacca. I had a list of activities planned so we had to choose a strategic hotel location, keeping in mind that Malacca town is extremely busy during weekends and public holidays. 

Lan suggested the hotel based on his own  experience staying there during one of his work trip . The hotel is situated mid-town, above an adjoining mall and across Mahkota Parade and Dataran Pahlawan. No shortage of activities and eateries around.

View from our room : I have some issues with this, as the windows was not tinted, we're super visible to the people downstairs. The drapes had to stay close at all times, which was a shame really.

I would say that Hatten have one of the best hotel layout I've seen. The room is big but what made it really nice was the fact that the space is divided into two areas, a sitting area and the sleeping area. They also provided a tv for each area, which worked real well with my children as they can watch their show while Lan and I enjoy other channels.  

 Nice big and clean bathrooms

The kids enjoyed the swimming pool very much. There's the standard adult pool and a kids pool with an attached sprinkler-ish water feature. The pool is also situated at a shaded area, so the kids was not exposed to the hot sun. 

 Happy faces :) 

We're mostly happy with the hotel, the service and staff. However, the breakfast buffet was not too great though. We stayed at Hatten for 3 days and 2 nights and did not see much variety in terms of the food served. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

I rate my experience 8/10
