I went to Penang for 3 days. Stayed in EST on the first night & come back later on the 3rd day”

Its very clean and comfortable. You would be shock what EST offer for that price. We stayed in EST on our 1st night in Penang and later check out to a much pricey hotel in Georgetown. But got shocked seeing how horror that hotel was. We were supposed to stay there for the rest of our trip. But cancelled it and go back to EST. Even if EST is quite far from Georgetown. It is still recommended. Definitely value for money. The staff even permitted us to left our stuff there upon check out before our flight that night. I would definitely choose EST again.

Excellent”

Receptionist was very nice and helpful and the hotel was nicely decorated. Rooms were very clean, spacious. The beds were also very comfortable too. They have about 3 floors and no elavators so keeps that in mind if you have heavy luggage. The location is good as it's near to the airport but a little far from Georgetown, not a big deal if you have a car or use Uber/Grab. Overall, a good budget hotel that is definitely worth the price. One of the budget hotels I'd gladly come back to stay whenever I'm in Penang for a short trip.

Nice Cozy Stay”

Love the decoration and the room is clean. Near to the airport and a good place to stay if you very much spend time over at Bayan Lepas area such as Queensbay.

Quick stop over nearby the airport”

Booked this hotel to drop by Bayan Lepas for a quick event. Best decision as it was a Friday and we got to the hotel less than 10 minutes from the airport. Hotel was clean and met the basic needs. Rooms were clean and the hotel deco was nice.Staff accommodated to our request for additional iron and ironing board. Overall, it will be a great choice if you need to stay nearby the airport.

Quaint, clean, comfortable ”

We were quite surprised when we got here. For a budget hotel, everything about EST was classy. Check in and check out were a breeze, loved the decor, room was perfectly clean and comfortable. Our one issue was that the heater was broken, but because we didn’t mind a cold shower, we didn’t bother asking for another room. Overall, I’d definitely come back if I needed a place for an overnight stay. Thanks!

Very good”

My flight arrived at 11:00 pm, so I booked Hotel EST near Penang Airport and walked there ( about 20 min.). It was unsafe walking in traffic, so I don't recommend this. Better to pay double for a taxi at midnight. Regular taxi fare to Georgetown is about RM 45. If you are leaving Penang on an early morning flight, it might make sense to stay in this location. It's cheap, clean and friendly reception.

double room ”

i booked this room from agoda & that time i only have to pay less than rm40. when i saw the room im very satisfied. this will be my fav hotel at bayan lepas.

Beyond Expectation ”

Was expecting this hotel the same as other budget hotel, but it was very lovely, the deco in the lobby looks fresh, front office was super helpful and the room itself is spacious for its price. Water heater and air conditioning work fine despite the bad review I read previously. Good for a quick stop, bed was super comfy, room was clean. Iron was provided upon request with iron board. Will definitely stay here again.

Money Worth Budget Hotel”

The EST Penang budget hotel is money worth to stay. The design of the hotel is special and each room has different design. The room is clean, the staff are friendly to help. They have coffee machine, water refil machine at the lobby, it really convinience. I love to stay there again!

Worth the price.”

Very clean and well kept facility. Room is very much comfortable and spacious. Located 5min away frm Penang Int Airport. Food shops, clinic, 24hrs mart located nearby hotel. Recomended for budget travellers.

Spotless choice near the airport”

If you have early flight from PEN you definitely want to avoid the crazy traffic from Georgetown down. For this the Hotel EST is a good choice, value for money and walking distance to the Airport. With big lugguage you can take bus or GRAB. Nothing to complain!

Easy Access to Airport”

The hotel is ideal if you need to be at the airport first thing in the morning. This is the reason why we checked-in the hotel, although our stay in Penang was really in Georgetown. We didn't want the hassle of unreliable public transportation from Georgetown to make it to the first morning flight the next day. The hotel was great; my only qualm was there is a smell of urine from the bathroom ... I think it is because we were on the first floor and the pipes are closest to the sewer? I don't know. Otherwise, the room and everything else is clean and comfortable. Staff is great.

good location and value”

Very close to airport, not too small a room for the rate charged!very friendly and professional staffs and fast at checking in.food shops close by.sweet decoration from staircase to room.would definitely stay here again if in need to fly through Penang airport.

Great for the late night arrival ”

We landed gone midnight and EST was still open and happy to receive us. It’s clean, convenient, and such value for money.

Near airport”

we booked at Hotel EST as we only spent one short night in Penang before getting up at 4am to take a flight. Clean room and bathroom, comfortable bed, good air con, no window but quiet and didn't really need window apart when a thai man knocked at our door around 2am, we got a bit scared and wish we had a window, in case of. Anyway the hotel was fine for what we needed, just wish we didn't get waken up at 2am

Staying in #room 208 (21 to 28) August”

This hotel just near to Airport if there is emergency unfortunately stupid Malaysia Airlines only notified there is a flight change time from 3:25pm to 5:25pm for local domestic flight flow from PEN to KUL (MH1149). We all passages stranded after check-in/ boarding 2:25pm called as per instructed. This hotel is very flexible to accommodates your need with a charges unfortunately stupid people has caused stupid error. I would take my sweet time to enjoy the local malay foods along the EST Hotel comparing useless @ the Penang International Airport by name to cater all the reschedules of other flight’s at the same time for example AirAsia, Firefly (MAS), & Malindo. My suggestion’s don’t visits Penang because Penang never will be ready for tourist.

Affordable stay”

The room was super value for money with all the basic facilities. However, the air con in our room kept on auto closed off every 1 hour. It is close to the airport and Queensbay mall but very far away from Georgetown, but this was what we wanted as it is near to the penang marathon starting area. Overall, everything is good except maybe we should have ask the staff to help with the air con problem which we didn't do.

Convenient for flyers ”

Walking towards the hotel, after a very short bus ride from the airport (RM1.40 only), I saw and heard planes taking off and was terrified about getting any sleep in there. Upon entering the hotel, I was once again worried because it looked rather small even from the inside. But once I made my way to the rather spacious room, with relatively spacious bathrooms, I didn't hear a single plane or a single child's scream for the next 3 days. It was amazing, clean and the staff were very pleasant, changing the towels when we requested and bringing us buns to eat, everyday. There are non-tourist trap eateries nearby, frequented only by locals, which are very cheap and authentic, which the staff will gladly recommend and direct you to.

Near to Penang Airport ”

Nice location as near to Penang International airport (10min in car). Have food stall beside the hotel main entrance . Good and clean environment. Recommend to people who wanna travel via flight
