Guesthouse The Frame Guesthouse

168, Lebuh Chulia, 10200 George Town, Malaysia –

Lock in a great price for The Frame Guesthouse – rated 8.8 by recent guests!

to get started.

Great spot and free early am alarm. Comfy bed and Chris’s lovely smile in the morning.

Matt, Saudi Arabia

Overall very good experience. Location is excellent, common areas are good, social and chill. Good hostel.

Nicolas, Peru

The interior. The room that provides good aircond.

Kyla, Malaysia

Fantastic central location, and very nice e modern furnishings and facilities. Great design aesthetic was a plus.

Sean, United States of America

This is my 5th or 6th time staying here and it has yet to disappoint. The bathrooms, I believe, are cleaned twice a day. The bedrooms are really clean. The staff is beyond helpful. They feel like family at this point. Shout out to Jon for always being amazing! Laundry is done the same day, drop off in the morning ready at night. Breakfast is nice and I crave the coffee when I'm not there.

The Frame Guesthouse is a unique and trendy hostel, with an industrial vibe. The friendly and helpful staff made the stay comfortable and enjoyable. There are plenty of common areas which allow for chilling out, watching TV, having beers and socialising. The hostel is located just a short walk from Love Lane and some food night market stands.

Lou, Vietnam

Excellent! John, Dean, Carson and the maintenance staff, all worthy of a 5 star hospitality rating. These guys know their stuff about the local area and will set you in the right direction for just about anything that you ask for. The building accommodations, location, and general environment are all exceptional. No fluff...a great place to stay in Georgetown, Penang Island.

David, United States of America

The hostel is located on a very lively Chulia street with many bars, restaurants and yummy street food in the evenings. The 8 bed dorm was clean, so were the other areas (bathroom, common area). I really like the interior design of the hostel, very minimalistic and rustic. You can easily walk to all the city attractions as the city center is not really big.

Katarina, Malaysia

The enviroment, the style/deco with minimal thing but have all thing..

Choctazz, Malaysia

I checked it out in person prior to booking since I was in the neighborhood. I liked the location, and the dorm room I chose to stay in. The bed was decent size and the sheets were clean and the 4 bed room was alright.
