Such a beautiful place to stay. Great staff, great location, clean and charming. The pool is also very lovely.

We loved our stay at Seven Terraces. The staff members were fantastic, always professional and courteous, with a genuine human touch. Jason was particularly kind and capable. The design makes a respectful but imaginative intervention in the original shophouse design, carving out a grand atrium, as well as several lovely common spaces where guests enjoy breakfast, afternoon tea, etc. We stayed in a Terraced Duplex Suite and felt as though we had a home away from home. We rarely stay in the same hotel twice, but would happily return to Seven Terraces. Also, the in-house restaurant Kebaya cannot be missed!

Wonderful staff, beautifully designed and decorated suites over two floors. Fantastic location. Almost everything in the old town is within walking distance. Great fusion restaurant onsite, which is well worth a try.

Everything about our two-night stay was wonderful. We would definitely return and have already told friends about it.

As promissed, “when in Georgetown, experience, feel, and live like the old asia”, GTH delivered it excellently. Our room, Steward Apt 3, is huge 100 sq m with spacious lounge, for 4 of us. The interior is precious beautiful, bring us to the past, Peranakan Chinese era. Salute to Chris Ong.

We had a very nice stay (despite the dislikes I have listed below) and loved our overall experience. Beautifully decorated hotel & rooms, very comfortable bed, spotlessly clean rooms & outstanding staff (Wendy, Shinny, Jason & Michael in particular) were the highlights.

The staff are all very friendly at the hotel. Jason, the young boy, is one of the most polite and helpful staff that I’ve ever met in my many hotel stays. We stayed at the Stewart Apartment which is super spacious and nicely decorated. We had a very pleasant stay at Seven Terraces and would definitely recommend it to our friends.

An Inside Look at Seven Terraces

Seven Terraces – this small private hotel of only 16 suites is by the award-winning hoteliers Christopher Ong. (Winners of the 2007 UNESCO Award of Distinction for heritage conservation and regular Conde Naste Hot List nominees). They have converted a grand row of seven C19th Anglo Chinese terraces, in one of Penang’s finest and most intact heritage streets, into a romantic, beautiful and timeless retreat, perfectly positioned in the very heart of the World Heritage Site, next door to the 1810 Goddess of Mercy Temple and just a few minutes walk from all the major icons. It successfully captures and celebrates the spirit of this world heritage town and its unique peranakan culture.

To answer those two specific examples questions does not cast good light on the hotel. The croissant for breakfast was reheated/stale. The bed was extremely uncomfortable - after two nights of extreme discomfort and anti inflammatory medication, we asked the front desk for assistance. The extra comforter made it more bearable. The bed is the most basic thing to get right. The shower had lukewarm water- part of the problem is the height of the shower head- the water probably drops several degrees in the time it takes to tumble down. The bathroom floor is half flooded when turning on the tap- and then the hose nozzle is too far from the shower recess. Once the shower is over the floor is so wet it is not possible to walk over to hang up towels. When we used the downstairs toilet for the rest of the day we needed to avoid the water pooling- my wife nearly slipped over in this mess. It would be great to have an iron and ironing board in the room. Generally speaking very few staff members engaged. It was a nice gesture to be asked if we wanted a pot of green tea when we were awaiting our taxi to leave. Frankly it would have been so nice to have been offered this during our stay - no one was forthcoming or made an effort to offer us something like this. We would have happily paid for this.
The bar was good. Breakfast was ok but not memorable. The hotel style is interesting albeit somewhat eccentric. The room was efficiently made up when we were at breakfast. Umbrellas very handy- could not have done without these Receiving the list of restaurants on arrival was a nice touch.

Some of the rooms face a school so can get a little noisy, early in the morning The room is quite chinese - meaning the furniture is not so comfortable, other than the two arm chairs- but if you are looking for the Perankan lifestyle then it is ok for a few days
The location is extremely convenient- in the heart of Georgetown. Breakfast is very pleasant

My boyfriend and I loved our stay at Seven Terraces. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. I forgot my phone in a taxi one time and they did what they could to get it back (thankfully it was returned to me!). But more than that, the building was gorgeous. Loved their afternoon tea and sweets session by the pool...just divine. Liked also dining at Kebaya, the hotel restaurant. So happy we decided to stay here and will book when back again and again. Thank you Seven Terraces!!

The cleanliness in my room was not tip top for the price we paid. The carpet looks old and dusty. I could not afford to walk freely in the room barefooted. The 2 sofa seats in the living area looks old and we only had 2 single seat sofas instead of a 2 seater. Less cozy for a family/couple.
The property’s architecture, Peranakan decor, and most of all the beautiful courtyard. Enjoyed the breakfast at the beautiful Nyonya restaurant and afternoon tea at pool front area.

Breakfast staff were not as competent as they should be - took orders without writing them down; subsequently got the orders wrong and we had to wait for the right order to be served. The smart TV had its cable unplugged for some reason (in one of our rooms). Easily fixed but expected some QA to spot these kinds of irregularities by Housekeeping staff before guest arrival.
