A great place to visit, with ample heritage and historical baggage. Great food, but a bit repetitive among the various food courts. Leboh Kimberley is probably your best bet. Also, as regards breakfast, it is difficult to find anywhere to eat anywhere before 9AM!
Unfortunately the iconic centre of GT is becoming increasingly gentrified, with some heritage buildings either being "uograded" into hotels/restaurants/bars or replaced by hideous concrete blocks, while others are unmaintained, visibly rotting and falling apart. The so-called al-fresco "art work" around the town is visibly decaying and there is a general feeling that the historic centre has seen better days and is slowly declining. Fancy shopping malls and jostling high rise condos are sadly now more representative of the city's face, and values.
Traffic is a "mess", with gridlock common in the central area. An efficient metro/tram system should have been installed a decade go, but has yet to be initiated.

It's a modern and heritage city mix together, wonderful food offering and cultural places to go. Traffic can be horrendous, and streets are narrower compared to Malaysian cities or town, driving is a nightmare as Penangnites do not stick to rules and some does not keep up with speed and on the wrong lanes.

We enjoyed the many reasonably priced restaurants in our area. We toured the temples and mountain top to see the view of Penang. We also toured the Spice Garden, Butterfly farm and Tropical Fruit Farm. I recommend booking a driver and touring these venues.

Love the atmosphere with the hustle and bustle of the smaller city. Food is great especially their seafood and hawker stalls, highly recommend Coco Island Street Food for their grilled seafood, Roti Canai Transfer Road for their roti canai and roti bakar and Batu Ferringhi's hawker stalls for their quick fix of Malaysian cuisine like char kuey teow, nasi goreng and satay.
Their malls aren't worth going as they have the same shops as in Kuala Lumpur, rather just walk and eat at their local shops.

Really enjoyed my stay, wonderful food, interesting places to see and the people were very warm.
My favorite spot was the hotel, enjoyed everything about our stay and the cafe was wonderful, we ate at least one meal there a day. They served a variety of food so we were able to have something different each meal.
The staff at Muntri Mews helped us in many ways, getting us taxis and cycle rickshaws, advice on where to go and what to see and eat.
Thank you all for a wonderful stay!! Hope to be back soon!

Mostly crowded place in any popular Nasi Kandar shop and food court. Its actually worth your while if you are patience and willing to wait
The town are full with historical area, not short of explanation given by hotels, pamphlet to explain what going on with Penang, very tourist centric and accomodating even to a new travellers.
In Penang, i rather stay in Georgetown or a bit to the south until Air Hitam, rather than in bustling area of nearby Tanjung Bungah or Batu Feringgi because the area are very isolated and a bit far from the most attraction in Penang. In a very busy day, a trip from Batu Feringgi to Penang Hill might take up to one hour!
For muslim traveller, Local Indian Muslim (assortment of curry) Nasi Kandar, Nasi Briyani, Gurney Drive and Ais Tingkap is a must!
The entire hotel is beautifully decorated and it gives me a chance to see what local residence feels like in the last century. Location is quite convenient, easy for transport and meals. The core area of George Town is right across the street and you can reach any of those landmarks within 15 minutes’ walk. And the staff are super friendly and helpful. I got some good tips from the manager and it really made my stay in George Town wonderful. Highly recommended accommodation in George Town!!!!
The location is perfect. Check-in staff (Natasha) was very nice and welcoming, she arranged us very comfortable room. Other staffs were nice too! Restaurant was closed but there are many cafe/restaurants around. Car park is small but if you decide not to move your car and use grab or walk instead, you could secure one parking slot. Room was big and clean. Wifi and AC functioned well. In all, I highly recommend this hotel and will stay there again and again when in George Town.
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.
Good vibe, the room, downstairs and the outside had lots of personality.
Nice balcony, nice idea to put out books that guests can borrow. There were options for different languages.
The staff was amazing and very helpful.
We were woken up by the mosque, but we booked the hotel knowing this and were curious to experiencing that bit of culture. Definitely something special to experience!
When in George Town, I would definitely book this hotel again.
Throughly enjoyed our stay at the Penang Marriott hotel. The service provided by Ivan and the team was exceptional. Everybody was attentive and nothing was too much trouble to make our stay even more special.
The location of the hotel perfect, away from the hustle of George Town. The hotel rooms good size and clean. Buffet breakfast offered a good variety of choice.
Would highly recommend this hotel to make stay in Penang extra special
The hotel was conveniently located in little India, George Town with several eating options. We stayed in a small room with twin beds that were placed upon a large wooden platform with no floor space between the beds. Room was clean and shower pressure really good. Breakfast was varied with both local and continental options. The fresh fruit and juices were really delicious and perfect for the weather.
The hotel is located within the town area. Which is very convenient for tourist to walk to most attractions within George Town. Easy to walk towards the Chow Rasta Market, Komtar, and a kilometer away to the Esplanade walking distance. In terms of the hotel outlook, I would say it's good not the best. Room cleanliness is just great. The transparent elevator is just bonkers.
Location is superb, short walking distance to Sweettenham Pier Cruise Terminal and many historical sites are within walking distance. The room is quite spacious, clean, nice interior and good view from the bed.(harbour view).Staff friendly. Breakfast was good. Royale Chulan Penang Hotel is at the heart of UNESCO Heritage Site in George Town, Penang, Malaysia.
The hotel was in a very good location in George Town, and the staff were friendly and polite. The hotel provided an airport shuttle for 60 MYR each way that only took 30 minutes. From the hotel you could get a Grab to the Kek Lok Si Temple and Penang Hill station in 15 minutes. Additionally, the hotel is only a couple streets away from where many bars are.
We really enjoyed our stay at Treasure Hunter. The self check-in was very easy especially as we were sent very clear instructions which included a video. Our room was comfortable, clean and quiet. The property is in an excellent location- we really enjoyed exploring George Town on foot and bus stops are nearby to explore other areas and attractions.
Smart hotel, with large suite and beautiful views in our case certainly.
Located between central George Town and Batu Ferengghi, but either accessed by bus or the ever reliable, quick and cheap Grab taxis.
Brilliant Lotus mall and supermarket a ten minute walk away - really good street food market hall directly opposite.
Very well located for walking around George Town. The hotel is very comfortable and attractive and the staff very pleasant to deal with. The added free afternoon tea each day was welcome after walking about in the heat for hours. The breakfasts and afternoon teas were high quality.
when I was booking the room, it didn’t show bunk bed. room was too small without any room to sit. I had never experienced in my life a hotel with bunk beds. stairs to room was very steep and narrow. it’s the worst in my life. I will never book at this kind of hotel anymore.
A boutique hotel but took care of all basic needs for a guest. Check in was seamless. Toiletries were provided. Rooms were clean. Most impt for us the toilet wet and dry areas were well separated :)
Very good hotel!
Very clean and spacious.
Staff and manager are very friendly and re-act to customer requests very fast.
