This place was beyond my expectations ! The room was very clean and the facilities were new and well maintained. The bed was very confortable. I also appreciated the location which was close to the main attractions of George Town, you can reach the street art figures on a walking distance. The room have also a view on the sea and jetties, but not noisy at all. There is also too many cute cafes around the corner !

Prestige is very well located , had the best breakfast in my entire trip. I had a round trip from Singapore to Penang and the Kuala Lumpur. The chefs were extremely kind and helpful. They ensured we had a pleasant stay. You have a free marketer here in Ug . All your staff are friendly and helpful but your chefs went an extra mile. NB; Their lunch and dinner prices are good

FAQs about hotels in Penang

A Palm-Lined Pearl

An island and part of the mainland make up the small Malaysian region of Penang, also known as the ‘pearl of the Orient’. It has long been coveted and the capital Georgetown has many elegant Colonial buildings. The observation deck of the KOMTAR tower – the tallest building – offers spectacular views of the town and surrounding mountains.

A funicular railway goes up to Penang Hill deep in the forest. Nearby Air Itam has one of Asia’s largest Buddhist temples - Kek Lok Si – lit by hundreds of lights at night. Another fantastic temple is Taoist Kong Hock Keong in Georgetown.

Penang Airport is near southern Bayan Lepas, and across the Malacca Strait is Pulau Jerejak, a peaceful island where trees merge into ocean.

In the much livelier north, Batu Feringghi is the largest resort, with lots of Penang hotels on the beach, plenty of bars and a night market. East, green mountains slope down to blue waters at Tanjung Bungah, where several high-rise hotels overlook the palm-lined beach towards the Floating Mosque just offshore.

On the mainland Butterworth is the departure point for ferries to Penang island, and has a bird park housing a large number of Malaysian species. Wherever you decide to stay, Booking.com has a fantastic range of Penang hotels and apartments to choose from.

I really liked the pool and sea area. The beach chairs are comfortable and the massage service excellent. The room is clean, large and the bedding is excellent. I spent my best nights of my entire road trip in Malaysia (16 nights). The breakfast is well stocked with good products. The staff are friendly and very kind. A 5* for the reception staff, who gave me a very warm welcome. A very very good hotel where I enjoyed staying, I would return without hesitation.

Everthing is perfect, definitely worth to stay here at least a week! Enjoy a whole log cabinet, which is amazing. You will never want to miss this fascinating place!! But notice you don't book from this plateform, caz they charge you the tourism tax but they didn't give to the hotel. So there is a double charge, maybe you should bool through Agoda or whatnot.

This hotel was fantastic. We were given free ice cream on arrival and all items in the minibar were free. The rooms were exceptional, and the staff were incredible. Excellent location, attached to the largest shopping mall in Penang. Great views of the ocean. Excellent breakfast buffet, one of the best I have experienced and I am vegetarian.

George Town is quite amazing, I must say.

George Town is quite amazing, I must say. Love that everything is within walking distance. Plenty of affordable hotels with so many things to see like the Armenian Art Street. Gazillion of street/hawker food shops or what the locals called "kopitiam. For food, highly recommend the local char kway teow, Hokkien mee and wanton noodles. Do try the local coffee and fresh coconut drink.

'I like Batu Ferringhi......this was a nostalgia visit. It is in the throes of being updated, moving stalls to more permanent structures, fixing the pavements etc. Not before time. Very heavy traffic at weekends. The food is still good. The beach (water) wasn't that clean. Maybe it's the season? Very few were swimming in the sea. I would not have either.

The small town has changed a lot, but still buzzling with lives and activities. A bit problematic to navigate the roads that can be confusing to those who visit the first time. The hotel should do a survey on the local food and provide a list of eateries worth trying.

recently stayed at this Airbnb, and unfortunately, the experience was not great. The house is located very close to a mosque, and the loud prayers start at 6 AM daily, which is disruptive if you’re planning to sleep in. The house is also much smaller than expected for a double-storey unit. The living room is cramped and not ideal for hosting friends. All the rooms are small, and the kitchen is equally compact, so don’t expect much space here. A major inconvenience is the smart key system, which turns off the electricity when you leave the house. This means you can’t leave any devices charging or keep the air conditioning running while you’re out for lunch or dinner. Plus, there’s no air conditioning in the living room, which makes the space uncomfortable during hot days. Communication was another issue. The owner does not understand English and only speaks Malay, which made communication uncomfortable for me. On top of that, there is a CCTV camera outside the car porch, and the owner won’t allow you to turn off the modem, so it feels like you’re being constantly monitored. I found this quite unsettling. Lastly, the water pressure in the toilet is low, which was an additional disappointment. Overall, this stay was not as expected, and there are better options available for the price.
