This hotel was recommended by a girlfriend who has stayed at the Park Royal for 6 times now. A great location quiet, easy walk down to shops and other restaurants. A great breakfast buffet daily and friendly staff. The pool was great too. I think they have to promote cheaper drinks at the entertainment area in the evening to encourage people to join in and appreciate the entertainment. Guests go outside the hotel to eat and drink a lot because of the high prices inside the hotel and its great to enjoy the culture of the people and the food outside the hotel.
Breakfast, pool, ftness room, and friendly staff.
Phone charges for connections overseas, even if you don't make contact with the person overseas, a rip off.
Manager of the breakfast buffet never smiled or said good morning, only the staff under him.
- Restaurant Tip : Walk down to Long Beach Restaurant area to experience the food and people, we ate there because of the variety and value of the experience. Its very popular and would receommend.

This hotel is well designed. Tall and spacious lounge and reception removed the need for air conditioning. The swimming pool and colourful garden blends well. The staff were cheerful and attentive to guests. Beach front is fairly clean, but, water looks murky. You are quickly accosted by beach vendors, but, they leave you if not interested in their activities.
The layout and design of the building.
A bit pricey and air conditioning in room is on the cold side.
- Restaurant Tip : Lots of restaurants and shops around the hotel's main road at night.

It is not the first time for me in Park Royal Penang. Well it has been many times which i usually book from their website but lately Agoda.Com has ease my booking much better and faster. If you are going to stay in Park Royal you going to have to like the beach and the night market shopping which is cheap and always do bargain to get it cheaper. Due to large amount of tourist they have randomly increase their price for their product. I'm local here in Malaysia so i practically know how much are the cost of these items.
I would say their best features are not Park Royal itself. It is what the locals have to provide at the back of Park Royal which is on the Beach. Jet Ski, Para Sailing, etc. Oh yeah Banana Boat for your kids too. Location of Park Royal and it's long beach is a good relaxing place. Service is good too if you going to hang out at the pool bar like i do. ah! Caesar Salad with Smoked Salmons. Must try it!
Hmm.. Need a new PING PONG BAT and BALL is cracked! The Ping Pong table need to be replaced it's getting colapsing.. lol. Well not much improvements we had alot of fun and have always do. Slack thing is they never remember their regular customers. I may be wearing some normal local clothes but i've been staying there so many times. Not like Berjaya Hotels they remember their regular customers. oh yeah.. talk about reception. I was there on SAT a day before i had to get on Agoda.Com and book a room for Park Royal. Reception say "We are fully booked for the week!" Well they are not! Bunch of sticking liars! Get on Agoda.Com and make your booking.. abracadabra you get your room at Park Royal. Well can't blame them Malaysians are just good bunch of liars. I would say 90% are! So beware!
- Nightlife Tip : If you do your shopping at the night market outside of Park Royal. Lesson 1: If the item is 100(RM) Ringgit Malaysia do bargain for 60(RM). They are bunch of cut troats on tourist.
