Good location, clean and nice hotel”
Fast check in and out by reception. When check in, we were each served with small cup of cute designed ice cream which my kids love it. Requested for connecting rooms, and was surprised to get it with 2 corner adjoining rooms. There is also a 50% discount for in house guest for their buffet dinner but was told that it would be ending soon in Dec 2022, hope this still available when my family stays in this nice n cosy hotel on our next trip! Keep the price rate with such good level of service, will definately keep the business going well! Thumbs up for the friendly hotel staff👍😁

Perfect wrap up to our Penang trip”
We decided last minute to extend our trip up to Penang for another night and decided to try a new hotel. Glad we made the choice to stay at G Hotel Kelawai! The place exudes a sophisticated, clean and professional vibe. We were impressed by how clean and organized the overall place and room feels. Very happy with our rooms - clean, spacious and luxurious. Also loved the lap pool at the top floor. Perfect for winding down in the evenings. Drinks, snacks and service from Gravity was also great. Breakfast buffet - honestly couldn’t quite ask for more. Definitely sufficient choices to choose from including made-to-order char kuey teow (never seen this offered at a hotel before). So for those that would like another plate before heading back, you can always get that at breakfast. The variety and quality offered makes it really value for money and I would strongly recommend visitors who prefers slower mornings (breakfast is till 10.30am) or has younger families to opt for breakfast at the hotel. The kids would surely be excited. Didn’t have too much interaction with staff but those that we did encounter was overall pleasant, polite and helpful. Would definitely recommend to others and stay here again during my next trip up to Penang!

Staycation at the heart of Gurney Drive ”
This new hotel situated nearby two shopping malls makes it ideal for its accessibility. The room which I stayed in had a king size bed and it’s amenities were clean and in working order. The hotel staff were polite and pleasant which made my stay here more memorable. I’m very likely to come back here again for my next staycation. Thank you for making my stay pleasant.

Clean and comfortable”
I booked 3 rooms here for me and my family during our 4 nights stay in Penang, totally enjoyed staying here as the hotel was very clean and comfortable. Minibar with free drinks and chocolate and they top up the items after every housekeeping. Excellent location just beside two major shopping malls, affordable breakfast and nice staff.

Great location and facilities”
This hotel is very very close (a minute's walk) to the 2 big shopping malls, food outlets, cinemas etc. There is an open-air rooftop pool with lovely views, an open-air rooftop bar which is a perfect place to finish the day. The breakfast room is relaxed (unlike the crowded Grand Central Station of some hotels). The rooms are lovely, big shower, big screen TV with Netflix etc. I will be staying here when I return.

Great location as there are 2 shopping malls just next to the hotel. Big and comfortable room. But the swimming pool not child friendly. Hope the management can do something for this.

Conveniently located next to Gurney Plaza and 5 min walk to Gurney Drive Hawker Centre. Check-in was a breeze. Parkings available at the basement and there was EV chargers are available for those who drive EV. Rooms are clean and big. There was complimentary bar too. The buffet breakfast was wonderful and staff were attentive to clear our plates as soon as we were done. Char kuey teow is highly recommended. As Penang is our favourite state, we will be back, definitely.

Fantastic!”
Staying Penang after COVID. Always love the heritage places in Penang and the food. G Hotel Kelawai is situated between Paragon Gurney and Gurney mall . Good location with good food and shopping options. We went for body massage at Thai Odyssey whose service never fails us. Good to book in advance as they are usually filled with bookings. Straits quay is also another option for simple shopping. It’s about 15 min drive away. Good dining options. Near the yachts. They also have a Thai odyssey there. The therapists were very friendly and provided a memorable spa experience for us. As for the hotel, it looked like a hotel for business travellers. Buffet blast was normal. They can perhaps improve on the variety of food options and food quality. Expected to taste authentic Malaysian food there but it was not up to expectations. The staff were polite and courteous but they can do better with service standards. They didn’t have staff at entrance to welcome guests, staff were reluctant to greet guests, found that bit cold. No complaints about the cleanliness and condition of the room, they were in tip top condition. The rooftop bar was good. Nice view of the hills and a great pool. . But I would love to see an improvement in overall service standards and hospitality.

Good”
This is the second time we stay here. At first, we got the room that was different with the one we had booked. It’s not as spacious as it should be. Thankfully, the staffs were really helpful, we requested to change the room and they agreed. The room was quite clean, although there were some stains on the carpet. For the location, it’s very strategic! We could just walk for around 5 mins to Gurney Plaza or Gurney Paragon. Overall, we were satisfied by staying here.

Good location - in between 2 shopping malls, ample food choices and shopping haven at the doorstep. Staff were all very courteous and friendly. The only area of improvement is perhaps the cleaniless of the carpet. Felt the housekeeping was not very thorough at vacumming the carpet, it was visibily dirty.

Great stay!”
This is our second stay at G kelawai and we’re still happy with our stay. The room is clean thoroughly. We have issue with drain blockage but it was cleared within an hour! Hotel staffs were knowledgeable and kind enough to suggest us with the best attractions. Our breakfast at Spoon was good. My kids enjoyed the selection of cakes and pastries, they even had ice cream for dessert. Thanks for such a memorable stay. I can’t wait to stay at your sister hotel G Gurney. I had a great stay there in 2017 too 😊
