    This is one of my favourite places in Penang. There are many interesting sights to see, and the local cuisine is amazing. I will definitely visit again. People in Penang are very helpful and friendly. The services rendered by some of the shops in Penang were awesome.

    Charming city with a long history.

    Charming city with a long history. The local food is amazing! Try the hawker stalls, local nyonya food/ restaurants. But if you want something fancier like modern western food, there are many new restaurants opened by the younger generation. Lots of coffee cafes operated by young people and they are great! It is easy to get around Penang in a Grab, and cheap too. Spend 1/2 day in Penang Hill - take the train up. Its only 4.5 min over a 2 km steep climb. The visit is worth it.

    Georgetown was delightful. Full of old-world Asian charm. The street food was amazing. If you like pristine places, I would recommend Singapore. We preferred Penang Island to Singapore as there weren't as many cameras and rules mind you.

    The two large historic mansions - Cheong Fatt Tze and the

    The two large historic mansions - Cheong Fatt Tze and the Pinang Peranakan Mansion - are fabulous, especially the former, also known as the Blue Mansion. Plenty of information about the history of Penang as well as some really beautiful artefacts to look at. The Penang War Museum was also well worth the excursion - it's huge and also full of historical information about the various conflicts that have affected the area, but particularly the occupation by the Japanese in the second world war, all set within the amazing fortifications built by the British. The old town of Penang is interesting to wander around - but beware, it was hot season and there is very little shade to be found. I really wish I'd had an umbrella as well as my hat and long trousers and long sleeves. There is a really strong emphasis on street food here and it is of varying quality. A long queue doesn not necessarily indicate this is a good restaurant - it just means that it's been featured by someone online. So look at the food yourself and judge your own instincts if you think something looks worth trying. Auntie Gaek Leen's restaurant was the most interesting we tried - really lovely food.

    Get up the hill on foot to see monkeys.

    Get up the hill on foot to see monkeys. Anything else is a waste of money. Yet another british colonial style city. Just wonder around for cafes and get to your next destination. Know that for the ferry they strictly enforce an illegitimate NO CASH policy. After discussing 20 min I was given a useless local RFID transport card for 22 myr instead of the 4 myr needed for the one way ride. Do yourself a favour and get there with a Grab by the bridge to avoid this very low level treatment and queues to board the ferry among plentiful indian families.

    The location of this hotel is excellent. It is central to George Town. The Komtar bus station is one minute walk around the corner. The rooms are very spacious. Ask for a room at the back where there is a view over the town to the sea. Breakfast is superb with a lot of variety. The swimming pool is large and there are plenty of sun loungers. There is also a good sized shallow pool for children. The beds were very comfortable. The bed linen and towels were of a good quality. This is a very comfortable hotel with very good standards.

    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.

Restored old Chinese house from 1800, the atmosphere is relaxed with beautiful decoration. You have everything you need in your room plus, the bed is super comfy. We will come back for sure!

    The hotel is situated just outside the main centre of George Town, so it's quiet but still within walking distance of the main sights, shops and eateries. The staff are extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the town. The room (with ensuite bathroom) was very comfortable and quiet. There is a small kitchen area where you can make your own hot drink. The hotel is beautifully decorated in an old Malaysian style.

    Such a pretty cozy accommodation with chilly quiet vibes. The interior was nice including pretty antique displays, fish tanks, and wall arts. Location is good too. It is easy to walk around the points of interest in George Town. Since the hotel is off the main street, the neighborhoods was pretty silent and easy to get sleep despite the New Year's Eve.
