Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
Located in the heart of Georgetown with easy access to local hawkers and tourist attractions. Hotel staff were helpful and nice. Breakfast was poor but given the circumstances to Covid-19 it's fair to say that the kitchen will serve better tasting food in the future.
MalaysiaClean room, friendly & helpfull staff, free parking, comfortable bed, good location.
MalaysiaFood was good. Staff are friendly & very helpful. Lots of parking space. Nearby to tourist attraction.
MalaysiaThe customer service, the condition of the room and its arrangement. I love the toilet facilities and its superb water pressure from the water heater.
MalaysiaRight from pulling up at the entrance to ask where to park I was highly impressed with the service here. The attendant took my large suitcase while I parked my car and this set the standard for all my staff interactions. Even the cleaning staff were very friendly and helpful, offering to come back later when they came and I wasn't ready. The pool is simple but lovely, providing loungers to sit on under large umbrellas. The inhouse spa and restaurant were not open due to the CMCO but the room service was easy to access, quick to arrive and delicious to eat! The locations is so close to the Clan Jetties and Georgetown and you can easily walk to many places to sightsee and eat.
MalaysiaAll good except there was no face towel provided in the room.
MalaysiaNice furniture nice design. Comfy bed. Nice staff, nice buffet breakfast. Great location
