The location of the property is great, right in the hustle & bustle off china town, lots of restaurants close by to choose from, across the road are the chew jetties and the main strip is approx 5/10 walk. The rooms are modern & spacious, rooms were cleaned daily with fresh towels and coffee refills. The hotel staff were so so lovely, they really do go above and beyond for you. We accidentally left our fire stick remote in our room during our stay and they were nice enough to post it to us! If I was to return to George town, I would definitely stay here again, it's a nice escape from the busy hustling bustling town.

Prime Yet Peaceful Location: Nestled among hip coffee shops and trendy restaurants, the hotel enjoys a quiet setting just off the main tourist paths. While parking can be challenging, the staff go above and beyond to assist guests. Thoughtful Touches: Enjoyed daily complimentary snacks, a luxurious bath butler service with specialty tea, and an unexpected free upgrade to a spacious loft-style room. Exceptional Breakfasts: Rotating set menus featuring Chinese, Nyonya and other local food varieties were a delicious highlight of each morning. Outstanding Service: Staff provided excellent recommendations, helped with parking logistics, and even suggested personalized city tours and touristy experiences. Futhermore, the staff proactively offered access to a sister property's swimming facilities - we regrettably didn't have time to take advantage, but appreciated the thoughtful gesture during the hottest month in Malaysia. Stylish Design: Beautiful boutique interiors with Aesop toiletries and well-maintained facilities.

The team led by Ai Tee, Kanmani and Shohidul are excellent! The place is gorgeous and the rooms are huge! The location is central to every single must go place in Penang. Please note that the hotel itself is located in Little India. There are some must try restaurants in the area along with plenty of food hawker streets. The place is definitely meant to relax and enjoy the ancient Chinese architecture. Fantastic place. I will come back!

We booked a sea-view room, and the front desk kindly upgraded us to a higher floor — the view was absolutely stunning! Especially the bathtub facing the ocean — it was breathtaking! We mentioned to the front desk that we were here to celebrate a birthday, and that night, we received a surprise of two cakes from the hotel — such a thoughtful gesture! The room design was beautiful and elegant, with a long, spacious bathroom featuring two sinks, a bathtub, a rain shower, and a toilet. The front desk service was exceptionally attentive, always greeting us with warm smiles. The concierge team was also very helpful — they noticed our luggage, were always ready to assist, and even asked if we needed help bringing it down to the car park when we were leaving. The security staff were wonderful too. Overall, it was a truly gorgeous sea-view stay, and we will definitely be back next time!

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.

We had an amazing experience at the Light Hotel! We were traveling at Penang and decided to stay at this hotel for 10 days. The room was spacious for a family of four at their family room, towels were changed everyday, water bottles were replenished everyday, and the breakfast was fantastic! Kids can be very picky when it comes to food and I’m so glad that the food variety offered at the breakfast buffet able to fill my kids tummy! They have other services like a massage center (for moms to take a break from kids) and a small children playroom.

If you visit Malaysia, George Town Penang is a must on your list. From Heritage Buildings to Nature to Great Food to Beaches and more. Do visit Artlane and Mano Plus for gifts and experiences, China House for their cakes and drinks, Ome Spacebar for real coffee lovers, Aayu Homes for heritage building living. Do sign up for workshops at Aayu Homes. Last but not least, make sure you have a full weekend there to visit hin Pop Up Market. Check out their instagram!

Batu Ferringhi is only suitable for those who has not plans to travel to the City. The beaches are no longer the same due to soil erosion and reclamation. Hotel Prices are too expensive and in short I will not recommend any foreign friends to stay there.

I stayed one night in Bukit Mertajam and overall, it was a decent short stop. The town has a quiet, local charm and isn’t too busy, which made it quite relaxing. There’s not a whole lot to do, but it’s a good place if you just want to unwind or try some local food—there are definitely some hidden gems when it comes to hawker stalls and small eateries. That said, it’s not really a tourist-heavy spot, so don’t expect major attractions or much nightlife. It’s more of a laid-back, pass-through kind of town. For one night, it was okay and served its purpose as a quick rest point.

You can try Nasi Kandar, Cendol and char koay teow near Chowrasta Bazaar. Vist the Upside Down museum. Can drive to Genting food court in Island Glades. From there driving to Penang Hill, jetty, Padang Kota , Kek Lok Si temple, big Thaneer malai temple and Pulau Tikus is easy..

I like it because it is away from the traffic of Georgetown on the one side and from touristic Batu Ferringhi on the other. A handful of decent restaurants supplement the many informal local huts, giving all levels of cost and quality for variable dining. All the local folk are courteous and kindly, though English is universally poor to incomprehensible. Excellent modern buses connect with Georgetown etc. on a frequent, low-cost service. Car hire is not expensive and a liberating device for island discovery. Pop-up Fruit stalls abound for an exotic breakfast in your hotel room or on the beach. Meridien Hotel has the cleanest beach!

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.
