Hotel Rucksack Inn Premium Melaka (Malacca, Malaysia)

Surrounded by lovely tropical gardens, The Rucksack Caratel is a funky modern property that offers hotel style accommodation, but the great communal spaces that are ideal for meeting fellow travellers more typical of hostels. The rooms have attractive and unique designs, and feature flat-screen TVs, in-room safes, tea/coffee stations and free Wi-Fi. The hotel has a very stylish pool deck, ideal for both a refreshing dip and posing on a sun bed poolside. The Caravan Park is an outdoor area with foosball and other games, an ideal spot to socialise. There’s also a sound stage where regular gigs are organised. A very simple breakfast of toast and jam is available weekdays and a more comprehensive buffet at weekends. Being so close to the historic centre of the city, many of its key attractions, like Dutch Square, Christ Church, St. Xavier’s Church and busy Jonker Street are all within easy strolling distance of The Rucksack Caratel.
