    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.

    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.

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.
