Located at a very convenient location on Gurney Drive, the room we got was incredibly spacious and comfortable. The room was very clean and it comes with a filtered water tap which is always a plus in Malaysia. We had an incredible view of the sea from the room and also from the infinity pool. The bartender at the poolside bar was very attentive and made THE BEST cocktails. This will definitely be my go-to hotel when staying in Penang.

    I loved the town: the history, variety of wonderful foods and cultural experiences, shopping. For us as Australians, prices were very reasonable. Travel around town by Grab (=Uber) is highly recommended as it is cheap, reliable and comfortable - just download the app. Saves energy and strength in the heat. We loved the pop-up street food stalls and also some of the established cafes and restaurants. Highly recommend Lebuh Kimberley in the evening for street food, Lada (Western-Asian fusion), Laksalicious, D'sakra (Indian), Black Kettle (Australian/Western), Urban Daybreak Cafe (very Melbourne). Visit Penang Hill once or twice - lots to see and do. The Upside Down Museum and Wonderfood Museum are fun and interesting. Don't miss Armenian Street and Cheong Fatt Tze The Blue Mansion.

    A very interesting mix of cultures. The Botanical Gardens were lovely and the National Park boat trip to 2 beaches excellent. Hired a motorbike one day and used the excellent public transport (bus) another day.

    If you are a visitor from Europe, Australia, China or the Far East, you would love the island's laid back atmosphere especially in the beach resorts along the northern shores like in Tanjung Bungah, Batu Ferringhi or Teluk Bahang. Top-notched 5-star beach-facing rooms costs USD100++ per night. The island is famous for its street foods which can be found scattered all around Georgetown and the suburbs. A plate of mouth-watering charkoayteow (fried rice noodles), the island's most iconic and ubiquitous hawker food, costs less than USD3.00 per plate.

    I went for a walk around the old town and unfortunately got lost. I asked a local trader to call me a Grab which he did. Very friendly people in Georgetown. The local seafood market containing Bali Hai was excellent and the lobsters were delicious if a little expensive.

    Georgetown is a place with numerous delicious foods and exotic museums. I really love the Laksa, Hainan chicken rice, Nasi lemak and Hokkien Noodle on the street, as well as White curry noodle and Nanyang toast...(to be honest, almost everyting is tasty here). BTW, Ghost museum and Wonderfood museum shows more interesting knowledge of the multicultural heritage city. If you like durian, it'll be a wonderland for you because the durian stalls are everywhere in the city. The only thing to complain is the traffic. The bus comes not frequently, it takes too long to wait. I hope the LRT can be built as fast as possible.

    I would like to commend the 2 receptionist 👏👏 they were very helpful and accommodative. Secondly the hotel is located strategically in George Town, making it suitable to walk across George Town and also very near food markets and the bus stops. This was a hotel that was worth its price. The rooms had a number of amenities including a fridge, hair dryer, English Speaking channels on the television and also a safe.

    Very good value hotel & hostel, centrally located in George Town with a usable swimming pool and a large (hidden) common room for guests' use (ask them where it is!). Friendly staff and beautiful decor in the main building. I would definitely stay here again 🙂 For those who remember it, this is the old 'Banana' hotel under new ownership.

    The location was fine, I made a mistake during booking and booked a twin room this was not the hotels fault. George town is a unesco world heritage area and as such the hotels are limited to what they can do. This hotel was not to my taste and I will put staying here down to experience.
