"This was a memory lane trip for me and first for my wife. Selected the Royale Chilean Hotel as best place to stay in Georgetown. I don't regret my choice, staff are the best, they are friendly, helpfully and efficient. The room was big enough for us, with large bed and we'll set out bathroom. Chose Breakfast on booking for each day and was not disappointed with the food available, this covered varieties for and culture or religion. I fully recommend this hotel to any traveller to Penang."

"Kimberley Hotel Georgetown is all about the location. Its situated perfectly in the midst of everything. All the attractions are walking distance, be it the beautiful, artsy streets of Georgetown, the Hawker Markets for Street Food at night, or a nearby mall for grocery and some mall time. Also nearby are the Glow in the Dark Museum, and other such activities. Add to that, you get all the conveniences of a hotel, be it having the room made, towels, wi-fi, basic supplies etc. It's perfect if you wanna save on transport costs, and plan to spend most of your time in and around the city hot-spots. The staff were very helpful, and they had useful city maps in the lobby which served us well during our time there. The only compromise is the room size, so be prepared for tiny rooms. You cant add an extra bed, and I found hot water to be warm at best, and not consistent. But overall for the location and the conveniences, it was absolutely worth it. "

"We were staying in Penang for 4 nights and booked 2 different hotels as there were some issues. We stayed in Hotel Neo Plus Penang for the first 2 nights and were very reluctant to change to the next hotel. True enough, Neo Plus was way better than our second hotel in many areas like location, room size, and cleanliness, breakfast spread and facilities. Firstly, the location is excellent and is within walking distance to many attractions like Jalan Magazine, Jalan Armenian and best of all, it is very near (less than 10 mins walk) to the best Nasi Kandar stall in Georgetown, Deen Maju! Even when you use Grab or Uber, it will take you less than RM10 to reach Fort Cornwallis (depending on demand). Secondly, we got the family room that can accommodate the 3 of us, and it was spacious. The room looks spanking new and the toilet was clean and comfortable. From our room window, we could also see Komtar, the tallest building in Penang clearly and that was quite a sight to marvel at, especially at night. Thirdly, the breakfast spread was decent but tasted great. It will sure be able to satisfy your morning hunger and keep you energized for the later walk around Georgetown. The menu also changes during the two days we stayed at the hotel. Very simple fare like rice, noodles, sausage, chicken, salad spread, bread and buns, fruits, porridge, cereals and some others. They also have an egg station where you can order any type of egg you desire. Decent, simple but filling. Lastly, the swimming pool on the top floor can be considered small but the view was stunning. Be careful of the rough edges around the pool as it is rather sharp and not fitted properly. The management can perhaps install a drinks and snacks bar on top to make the place livelier. Other small mentions include the mini mart that is located in the hotel lobby, great for buying drinks and snacks. There is also a cafe at the ground floor and we received 1 complimentary drink each. The drink wasn't great but "

"My 15 year old daughter & I really enjoyed this hotel. The staff were pleasant & helpful while the garden & pool was lovely. This is one of the only 4 star hotels in Georgetown with a pool. It was lovely to take a dip in the afternoon to cool off after a day's site seeing. We had a small problem with our toilet on the first morning but this was fixed by the staff immediately. I also needed an adapter to charge my phone & within a few minutes of making the request the adapter was delivered to my room.We loved the layout & decor of our room as well. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to a balcony room as well with a view of the garden. This hotel is close enough to walk to many of the city's sites. We would definately stay here again. "

More about Georgetown

Georgetown spreads over part of Penang’s east coast. It’s the administrative seat of the island, and hotels in Georgetown are the likeliest place for tourists to stay while visiting Penang. Its colonial Esplanade and Chinese and Indian neighborhoods are fascinating places to explore.

Penang is distinct from greater Malaysia. Its international atmosphere is more pronounced, and there are many more Chinese than ethnic Malays living here. It ranks with Malacca when it comes to historical character, and it’s proximity to Thailand means it’s a popular side trip from both Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur.

Travelers can hire a trishaw and explore the tip of the Georgetown peninsula. Chinatown and Little India are next-door to each other, with sites including Kuan Yin Teng, Penang Chinese Town Hall and St George’s Church all in the same vicinity. Further out, but still in the same area, is Khoo Kongsi clan house, with its intricate Chinese carvings. Other grand structures in the area are Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion and Pinang Peranakan Mansion.

The cultural dynamic of Penang is unique. In addition to its Chinese- and Indian-style temples and colonial churches, it also has a Thai-Buddhist temple, Wat Chaiya Mangkalaram. For an overview of local history and culture, head to the Penang Museum, near Georgetown’s founding point at Fort Cornwallis.

The city has countless hotels, and they cater mainly to international tourists intrigued by the city’s recent inscription as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Accommodation in Georgetown includes cozy inns in heritage buildings and lavish five-star giants. The biggest hotels are in reach of KOMTAR, Prangin Mall, Penang Time Square and other shopping centers. An even greater selection is on Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah, near New World Park theme park.

Penang is well connected to the rest of Southeast Asia. Ferries from Langkawi, Medan and Butterworth land at the ferry terminals off of Pengkalan Weld. Tanjung City Marina, Penang Yacht Club and Chew’s Jetty are also here welcoming yachters on holiday. It's possible to take an overnight train from here to both Singapore and Bangkok, making it a popular destination for visa trips.
