The location is amazing. Fully immersed in nature. The walk up to the nearby Thai restaurant for sunset was great. We ate fresh Durian and pineapple. Explored the grounds lots—including the lovely local dogs. The pool is a really nice touch

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hickory on Penang Hill, and it was a truly memorable experience. The location is incredibly tranquil – a perfect retreat for peace-loving individuals looking to escape the noise of the city. Surrounded by nature, the weather was pleasant and refreshing throughout our stay. One of the highlights of my trip was the 15-minute walk down through the forest from the top of Penang Hill to the resort – a thrilling and scenic trail that makes you feel completely immersed in nature. The sign boards were kept at the right place for guests to reach the resort. A special mention goes to Raaj, the owner, who was exceptionally kind, polite, and welcoming. The staff were also wonderful – they went out of their way to assist us, even helping prepare food upon request, which made our stay feel homely and relaxed. One minor challenge is that the train service to the station near the resort runs only once every hour, so planning your travel times is important. That said, the peace and setting more than make up for it. Don’t miss “The Habitat”, an incredible attraction on Penang Hill. It's a must-visit for nature lovers, offering a breathtaking walk through untouched rainforest. As a bonus, guests staying at Hickory can enjoy a 20% discount, which Raaj can help arrange. If you're looking for a peaceful, nature-filled escape with warm hospitality, Hickory is the place to be. Highly recommended!

    I think they should revise their price instead of what they charged as the facilities were not really aligned with the standard. And lights keep tripping , the toilet was not on standard size for adults too low to seat perhaps everything can be done better. Good effort to make homestay as others but must be really serious when it comes to customer satisfaction.
