Casa del Rio Melaka
Melaka, Malaysia · Independent · Accessible Luxury
Casa del Rio Melaka sits directly on the Melaka River near Jonker Street, its riverfront rooms set in a reconstructed colonial streetscape. Portuguese-colonial styling matches the river quarter, and the name nods to Portuguese Melaka, which fell to the Portuguese in 1511, so the river walk at dusk passes the old shophouses and the lit bridges.
