Great new and modern hotel in Georgetown. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the beds were very comfortable. Good shower, good air-con, and good WiFi …. all very important! The staff were really kind and friendly. It was nice having a restaurant and a cafe downstairs for when we wanted something to eat but didn’t feel like walking. The pool and the gym were also great. There are some malls and supermarkets really close by, and not too far of a walk to the more touristy area of Georgetown.

Good food - local food aplenty and very delicious.
Good food - local food aplenty and very delicious. Seafood was very good and cheap. Many things to do: drive to durian plantations for durians, beaches, batik factory, vivid wall murals, Penang Hill, driving around, shopping, massages, etc. The tourist counter at airport provides many useful booklets of places to eat, visits and things to do. Easy to drive around with a rented car from airport. We like Penang!

George Town is a perfect mix of beach side vibes , business of a city and old town culture. We spent 3 days there, but would recommend staying for at least 5 days to really experience the place.
Our highlights were:
Penang Hill
The beaches
Eating at various Hawker markets
Armenian Street
Upside down museum
Buses were easy to navigate, but were a little unreliable at times. Make sure you have correct money (RM 2) for each time you use the bus, or if you are planning on using the buses a lot, get a visitor rapid passport.
Street art was great, too!

Georgetown has great places of interest to visit.
Georgetown has great places of interest to visit. Please do consider visiting Gama Mall - its a splendid 7 storeys high comprises of supermarket, food court and amazing clothings, shoes, household items and even children sections.
Also, please drink lots of water when u are in Penang. The weather was scorching hot and my family definitely drank so much water during our stay there.
Visiting Penang hill is good but be patience for a ride on the Gondola. You will clock in many steps visiting places there.

You can spend up to a week in George Town exploring the food, architecture and culture that it has to offer. One of the highlights for us was the Hin Bus Depot weekend market where you can get artisanal products and enjoy the creative, artistic vibe.
For more historical insights, do visit the Pinang Peranakan Museum. Spent a lovely afternoon there and ended up with a very delectable lunch at the restaurant next to it. A must visit.
Taste the variety of delectable food that the night markets have to offer. However, for those of you without a sweet tooth, would advise you learn to use the phrase 'kurang manis' when ordering drinks.

I decided to visit Georgetown, Penang spontaneously without knowing much about it. What an incredible discovery! Known as the food capital of Malaysia and a UNESCO World Heritage site, this place completely exceeded my expectations.
I was amazed to find a small town where four religions—Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism—coexist peacefully within such a close community.
Georgetown is also a vibrant canvas of street art and graffiti, showcasing the creativity of its people. The locals are warm and welcoming, and the food... absolutely delicious! From local street cafes in little India to trendy cafes, every meal was a new adventure. Add to that a lively nightlife scene, and you've got a perfect blend of culture, history, and modern energy.
Georgetown is truly a place to visit!

Honestly one of the, if not the best interior design for a boutique hotel in Malaysia. I love the view of the air well facing from the bed which its roof reminded me of my kampung house.
The bed was super comfy and I had the best sleep. The check out time is 12 pm which is nice.
Alot of essential facilities such as a ceiling fan, a mini fridge, an ironing table and a flat screen TV is available inside the room. The hot water runs consistently throughout.
It's a beautiful hotel, great interior decoration and clean. The included afternoon tea was also very nice. It also has a great location that allows for quick access to down town George Town.
We were on the far end of the mosque, and the sound didn't bother us, it was actually quite calming, and doesn't last too long
The hotel was really nice - we really enjoyed the colonial style of the rooms which were huge!! The staff were super friendly and helpful throughout. The location was also great, very close to the main area of George Town.
The Hotel is centrally located in George Town. Nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. Very attentive and helpful staff. Lots of places for eating nearby. Highly recommended.
