Find Hotels in Ache Street Mosque, Penang

The E & O is a 5 star rated hotel and I certainly agree. We stayed in the Victory annexure of hotel (room 907) and what a room. Overlooking the ocean, nice and quiet, very well appointed, plenty of room, great en-suite area, clean, tidy. The hotel in our opinion lived up to its reputation.

We stayed in the Victory annexure of hotel (room 907) and what a room. Overlooking the ocean, nice and quiet, very well appointed, plenty of room, great en-suite area, clean, tidy. The hotel in our opinion lived up to its reputation. Fruit, soft drinks, newspaper in the room daily (all complimentary). You do not have to lift a finger. The staff are extremely courteous and friendly in every area of the hotel, even by the pool without asking staff brought ice cold water (a nice touch). Breakfast was up to 5 star standard. The ambiance and décor of the hotel makes it relaxing and very pleasant. The happy hour (6pm to 7) just puts icing on the cake (again all complimentary). Having an ice cold beer or glass of wine watching the ocean and the thunder clouds roll in after a nice sunny day, magic. An excellent hotel, worth the rating and it is nice place to be pampered. There is a shuttle bus that will take you to Buta Ferringi beach area. Also the there is a boat launch that will take you over to Straits Quay for some shopping and a wander around. Both of these services are free to hotel guests. For your genuine (!!) products Bata Ferringi night market is probably the place to shop. As usual half the sellers asking price and take it from there, although the main shopping place (Parkson shopping centres) have some just bargains and the quality there is good. We were able to pick up an absolute bargain at of all places, the hotel (Bombay gift shop) gift shop. 2 antique Penang porcelain plates. These were authenticate by a personal visit to the dealer and provenance confirmed by way of published reference books. The woman in the gift shop could not have been more helpful with putting us in contact with the dealer and allaying any fears of purchasing reproduction or fraudulent items. To sum up, if you want 5 star pampering, the E & O served us well.

Booked 3 nights with Sunway as a surprise trip for my girlfriend's birthday. Let's put it this way, Sunway is the ONLY hotel you should be staying when in Penang (unless you are coming to Penang for the beaches, then it's a totally different story).

Let's put it this way, Sunway is the ONLY hotel you should be staying when in Penang (unless you are coming to Penang for the beaches, then it's a totally different story). Penang is well known for being an artistic city and great local food. Sunway will give you WALKING access to almost all the great local food that you should try. 8mins walk to the famous Chendol and Penang Laksa, 5mins walk to the famous fried kuay teow, and what else, all the other great local street food are just outside the hotel! It's also walking distance to Peragin Mall and 1st Avenue(these 2 shopping malls are probably the only 2 shopping mall worth going to in Penang. They are pretty good.) Taking a cab to Armenian Street for the street art, and gurney drive is simple as there is a taxi stand filled with taxis just outside the hotel! Trying to flag a cab in Penang without a taxi stand can be a problem as their taxis are known to just wait at taxi stands. The hotel is equipped with a pool and a pretty good gym. If you're going to Penang for a relaxing trip, Sunway is the hotel to go for! I might have missed out some stuffs but both my Girlfriend and myself feel that the trip was so awesome cause we didn't have to waste time traveling in taxis or finding the way. They are all so near! Btw, they have pretty good wifi too! Will definitely be back when I'm going to Penang again in the near future!

Spacious, clean, modern decor. Wi-Fi, kitchen, LCD TV, underground parking. The only catch, poor sound insulation. First night I arrived the next room is having birthday party.

First night I arrived the next room is having birthday party. I can hear the talking and shouting. Thankfully they stop it by 12 midnight. The windows are not as soundproof as those found in 4-5 stars hotel. Being situated along the mainroad, there are a lot of vehicles, especially motorcycles even into the midnight. My room is situated at the corner facing behind, yet the noise from the road is audible. I did prepare ear plugs but that didn't save me from the dogs barking at 2am for half an hour. Apparently the resident (house) behind kept a dog outside the garden at night. Thankfully it didn't bark the second night. If you are someone who is sensitive to noise, best stay in a hotel instead. The only reason I stay here because I am attending an event nearby.

How would i compare between Jen Hotel and st gail wemberly? After staying here same room type excutive suites with club access. I would prefer Jen hotel.

After staying here same room type excutive suites with club access. I would prefer Jen hotel. If you want a bathtub, all jen rooms on a club levels has bathtub whereas wemberly executive superior does not. 5 stars and friendly staff on the club lounge, young people with a good attitude for good customer service. I got told off on the ground floor by the restarant staff because i went to seat in their brand new seating areas, to me if they dont want guest to seat there yet they should have signs advising areas not ready yet for seating. Anyway did not bother me but goes to show they still need improvement when come to hospitality. Get uber or grab app, so cheap to get around places eg. By grab to penang hills OR botanic garden cost 8MYR. Airport to hotel 23MYR. Be expected this hotel does not have anyone to help you with luggage or give you a welcome greetings i didnt care and i prefer to will my luggage myself. If you are a guest wanting that kind of service, be aware that this hotel does not provide such service. I arrived midnight, the security guard just talk amoungst themselves. I stay here 5nights and try to interact with hotel staff minimum as possible except for club lounge staff they are wonderful. If the price is right and cheaper than Jen hotel for the club rooms i would stay here again. Level 30 skybar not part of the hotel business indepently owned, be aware its not cheap if you want a drink or two. I already have a drink earlier in the hotel club lounge and decided to checked out the skybar you need to order a drink otherwise they wont let you in to see the views. Fair enough business is business

Suppose i am booking for the next door St Gile Wimbley. But accidentally booked this hotel as i can't recall St Gile Wimbley name. When look at the address it should be the place local called "2nd Avenue". And the price is attractived. So I booked it. When i when there, realize there are 2 hotels at same location. Anyway the first impression is plentty of convenience ...Suppose i am booking for the next door St Gile Wimbley. But accidentally booked this hotel as i can't recall St Gile Wimbley name.

Anyway the first impression is plentty of convenience carpark. 7 stoleys Wow. Don't worry need to park outside like the high end J hotel at opposite. When i check in the young sweet staff is very efficiency on her job. She is friendly to, important is she remember the customer's name. (Not only me, i observed she remember other customers too). Her information is clear and direct to the point. And she always very patient with questions. I was surprised it is included breakfast although i did not booked for. But if more local dishes and vegetarian available will even better. The chef in the Japanese is very helpful to explain me every single single dish. I give low mark is not food not nice but only few dishes available. I feel very secure here as the life only activated with card key. Further more safe in room. The room is pretty nice although small but is enough. I like the shower very much powerful shower and the warm water flow is easy to control. The toilets bowl and basin using Toto brand. Surprise, and it is very comfortable. Overall, i feel this is a value 3 star hotels. Good for a business traveller who only need a good bed, no hassle parking space and nice place to take refreshing shower. High speed Internet also a plus point. Hope other hotels should align to this hotel so it can be more competence overall. Thank you.

From the moment we checked in the staff were very friendly, always greeting us with a genuine smile. The bell hop provided us with maps and info about the city while checking in.

Check in was fast and easy. The bell hop saw that we were a family of three. He offered to get us an extra pillow and towel even though our reservation stated for only 2 adults. They delivered quickly. The last day (we only stayed 2 nights, unfortunately) my wife wanted to get some local Malaysian food. We asked the staff that were standing around the outside drop off area because they asked if they could help with anything. We asked about the food and they thought about it and said that food is usually served only during breakfast and would probably be hard to find it this late in the day (8 pm). We thanked them and started to walk towards the free shuttle stop across the street when a staff came running after us telling us that a restaurant right down the street may still serve that food. He was right and it was great! The location is ideal. There is a free shuttle right outside the hotel that goes around Georgetown. You can hop on and off through out the day. It stops by every 15 minutes. The room was clean and comfortable. The large clean window had a great view. There was no safe in the room but there is a security box in the lobby behind the front desk. All the staff are very professional, always asking how we're doing and how they could make our stay more comfortable. The breakfast was the best breakfast I have ever seen. It had foods from all around the world and it was all really good! The coffee machine was a made to order mocha, latte, cappuccino, hot chocolate, black coffee machine. Everything tasted fresh and perfect! They opened at 6:30 but on our last morning we had to leave at 7:00. They told us to come to breakfast at 6:00 and we could start early. I would recommend this hotel with no hesitation. This hotel should really be a 5 star hotel!

We are trying to look for a clean and comfortable room with good price while walking around Penang. Once we found Armenian, we thought that the prices will be really expensive. But once we get to know them, we realise that the price is quite affordable while the environment and services are really heart touching. Before we do the booking, the bring us to 3 rooms to have a look. They never hesitate to reply our doubts and questions. We feel like home coming as they treat us like an honourable guest although we have only done a booking for one night. Two thumbs up for Armenian and definitely 5 stars rate for overall services. The best out of the best.

We enjoyed our one week stay at this hotel. It is a city hotel, not a resort, and it lacks imagination in its surrounds. For example, there is a pool area that has 2 pot plants as greenery. If your focus is on cement construction and internal appointments, this one has it all. It is a very good city hotel with all the facilities you would expect from a 4 star hotel. So...We enjoyed our one week stay at this hotel. It is a city hotel, not a resort, and it lacks imagination in its surrounds. For example, there is a pool area that has 2 pot plants as greenery. If your focus is on cement construction and internal appointments, this one has it all. It is a very good city hotel with all the facilities you would expect from a 4 star hotel. Some hotels of this standard rate themselves as 5 star. The hotel is a short walk from the ferry from Butterworth, but having done that with luggage, we recommend getting a taxi from Butterworth train station to the hotel if you are coming that way. The walk is most unpleasant with luggage. On our return trip to Butterworth, the hotel arranged a taxi for us, and it was worth it. The hotel is located close to the heritage area, and it is easy to get around with buses or walking. Little India is close by. A variety of restaurants are not too distant, and there are plenty of street food options close by if you are game. We found it easy to get around the island with buses - they are modern, airconditioned and cheap. All our encounters with staff at this hotel were pleasant. The included breakfasts were first class. Our room was clean, big enough, comfortable and serviced daily. Some rooms may have ocean views across to Butterworth - ours didn't - but the haze was so bad while we were there that we would have been disappointed had we paid for views. Laundry services outside the hotel were hard to find and distant. The hotel laundry prices were not prohibitive. We enjoyed our first visit to Penang and had no regrets about choosing this hotel as our base.

My wife lost her wallet that has phone and her passport inside at the lobby but managed to get back from front desk. We really appreciated. Its a small boutique hotel in the middle of the town , I would say as the komtar tower is there and a lot of shopping mall are there too. At night the kimberly street night market has awesome food. The Kwe Tio soup at the corner is the best I tried so far. It might be exaggerated if I say that the best that I tried so far in Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia. Pretty dern good soup. I didn't tried the food at the hotel . So nothing to say about it. The room is a bit small but it neat and clean. great location, awesome staff, clean room and good food near by. whatelse do you need more. Oh George town coffee shop at the foot of the komter tower has pretty good coffee.

We were looking for somewhere not-too-expensive to put up for the night as we were passing through Penang and found 1926 Heritage on agoda.com going for a song, so we booked it. Check-in at 11.30pm was a breeze with the friendly desk staff on duty. The room was easy to find and was delightfully spacious; I wasn't expecting that for the short-notice price we paid.

Check-in at 11.30pm was a breeze with the friendly desk staff on duty. The room was easy to find and was delightfully spacious; I wasn't expecting that for the short-notice price we paid. The mattress was wonderfully firm (great for my aching back!) and the bathroom, while not exactly 5-star fitted, was also spacious and had a hot shower. Despite it being the middle of town, the hotel was delightfully quiet at night, so we slept with the windows open to let the breeze in. Was awakened in the middle of the night when the mosquitoes started biting too, but plugging in the insect repellent vaporizer plug supplied in the room soon took care of that issue. We woke early to have breakfast at the hawker centre just a short walk up the street from the hotel and came back in time for a quick dip in the pool before checking out and resuming our road trip. Great stay, at a great price. Would recommend it to anyone!

Pros: The room prices are affordable and the breakfast buffet is one of the best I’ve ever had in a hotel. The hotel is right in the middle of Georgetown and that makes it easy to walk to a lot of museums, eateries, catch the bus and see the sea. The view from my hotel room was magnificent. I could stand by the window all day(Room 903) Izzy from the hotel’s res...Pros: The room prices are affordable and the breakfast buffet is one of the best I’ve ever had in a hotel.

I could stand by the window all day(Room 903) Izzy from the hotel’s restaurant should receive an award for the ‘Best Customer Service Representative’. She smiles immediately you enter the restaurant and was of great help in telling us of places of interest in Pinang. Hotel room was very neat and well cleaned always. If I go to Pinang again I’m surely going back to HOTEL MALAYSIA 😀 Cons: The room is not sound proof so noise from the street or other rooms can be heard slightly

This is our second stay in this hotel. The first stay didn't impress us very much but it is indeed just opposite Loh Guan Lye Hospital, so it is a convenient place to stay for my Mum's medical check up. Second time booking is because we are very last minute due to unplanned travel and in Agoda website it shows a very good deal for same day booking.

Second time booking is because we are very last minute due to unplanned travel and in Agoda website it shows a very good deal for same day booking. At our second check in, we met a very friendly staff who is dedicated to his job very much. He is very helpful in providing information. The apartment that we booked is very spacious and clean and it's so much better compare to Family Quad room that we booked at the first visit. The apartment is equipped with big refrigerator and basic kitchen amenities. The hotel also sells 600 ml water bottle at RM 1 only, so it just worked out very well for us since during our 3 days visit it always rain in the afternoon.

Great location! The hotel is centrally located in Penang...just a 5 minute walk to the bus station at KOMTAR (Komplex Tun Abdul Razak). There are buses going to the airport which only cost 2.70 malaysian ringgit per person. The bus numbers are: 102, 401, 401E (from Lane 6 of the bus station...the last lane in the station).

If you are taking the bus to the airport please make sure you give yourself about 1 and a half hours to reach the airport. I was stuck in a traffic jam ...left KOMTAR at 6:30pm and arrived in the airport close to 8pm. You can take these same buses from the airport to KOMTAR. The staff at the hotel are very helpful and friendly. I had a business meeting and I was afraid I wouldn't be able to make it back to the hotel in time to check out and they were nice enough to extend my checkout time. They were also very helpful when I asked for suggestions for dinner. Down the road from the hotel (about a 3 minute walk on Lebuh Pergraves) are several street food stalls and shops. The Hokkien Prawn Noodle there is very good...you can ask for extra toppings like spare ribs (extra $2), eggs ($1), roasted pork, etc, to go with your noodle ($4.30). The cendol from the drinks stall on the street is also pretty good. If you want some good local Nonya food, you can try Ivy's Nonya (Address: 58, Jalan Chow Thye, George Town, 10050 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia) which is off Jalan Burma...2 minutes walk from Him Heang Bakery. If you are alone, they have a set lunch menu that cost about $13 including a homemade soya bean drink. The food is very authentic as reminded me of my granny's cooking. There are several malls around the hotel. In fact, I need to get a luggage and got a pretty decent one (20 inch suitcase) at GAMA department store (across the street from the hotel) for only 99 ringgit (they were having a sale). There is also a supermarket close by at Pacific. I would definitely be staying here again if I return to Penang.

1st time we came to Penang, we stayed here because of the location. It is at the very top of jalan penang and there are so many things around.

Bars behind the hotel, places to eat within 2 minutes walk, street market within 3 minutes and at the end of the street market, shopping centers are pretty much accross the road! Although there are other hotels that are located on jalan penang itself, bayview still wins hands down on location. The fact that its at the top of the street means a slightly quieter atmosphere. I mean, you don't want to step out of the hotel 1st thing in the morning to see some locals sleeping on the street, do you? Because that's what you'd get if you stay at the hotels on jalan penang. The band they constantly have performing each night is very good too. Sometimes after a hot day walking around or shopping or whatever you do in penang, you just want to relax and have a drink or two and listen to the band singing your all time favourites and do shout outs when you request a song (or 10!). We came back to penang a year later. And even though we originally wanted to stay in a resort around batu ferringhi, we decided we loved bayview the 1st time and we'd show that appreciation by returning. And were we glad we did. We arrived in the island quite late and was exhausted. We checked in at about 11:30 pm and Izhan (forgot the spelling of the name) asked if this was our first time in penang, so we told him we were there the previous year. After what seemed like 5 seconds, he thanked us for returning to bayview and upgraded us from superior room to premier! That's not even the next level of room up (superior then deluxe then premier then suite). At 11:30 at night after a long flight, I don't ever remember having much energy but I was jumping up and down. So thank you! Overall, aside from location, value, facilities available and all other things they advertise, experience like mine is not something you always get at other hotels. Thumbs up

I like the hotel location because just about 100m away you can find the best nasi kandar in Penang. Not 1 but 2. They are Hameed iyah and Line Clear. Our family like the former for its delicious curries and selections. Located along Campbell street just ask around if you were lost. The buffet breakfast in hotel is excellent.

Almost the best hotel in Penang! We stayed at the Merchant hotel for a total of three weeks. First one week and then I extended for an additional two weeks.

The front desk staff is excellent; the room was a 10+ rating. A perfect room with a good bed, full closet, fridge, safe deposit box, good TV, good size desk and chair with multiple electric plugs. An extra (soft) chair in the room and a good bed with four pillows. Bathroom with a full tub and excellent shower with good water pressure. Hot water in both the shower and sink. Fully stocked with all amenities. The in-house breakfast has a good selection, but the eggs, sausage and potatoes are always lukewarm at best. I hate cold foods for breakfast! The Wi-Fi is intermittent at best. I see no repeaters or Wi-Fi extenders in the hallways. Usually I get about 10 minutes from time to time then it disconnects. It seems that it usually disconnects right in the middle of me doing something important. I then go down the road to an internet café to send my important emails. We come to Penang every year (for 10 years now) and stay in hotels from 3 weeks to as much as 3 months. This was the first time at the Merchant Hotel. Even though the room is a five star room and the staff is great, I will never return because of the intermittent Wi-Fi.

We recently went to Penang for medical purpose. We thought Berjaya is near to Island Hospital. But we were wrong. Berjaya is the most suitable place if you are visiting Adventis Hospital.

The staffs are friendly, the room is clean and even our booking is without breakfast, the hotel only charge us additional RM12 per person for buffet breakfast. The breakfast at RM12 really surprised us as it has many selections and the price is just too good to be true. At the beginning, we were disappointed as the exterior does not reflect a 4 star hotel but we ended up feeling satisfied.

GLOW Penang was really a surprise as when we booked the hotel, we knew it was 3 stars and thus managed our expectations accordingly.

But honestly, GLOW should be rated 4 in terms of service, cleanliness and rooms. Their buffet breakfast was really good for a 3 star hotel. There were pastries, savouries (like rice or noodles) and cereals. Their scrambled eggs are awesome and keeps running out fast, so be sure to get yourself a generous scoop! They also had a pool and a pool bar, which my friend and I frequented for the ambience. Their in-room service was also efficient. When we checked in, there were no towels so we made a call to reception. We went out of our room after that. When we returned, we wanted to put a call to reception to remind them about the towels, but to our pleasant surprise the towels were already there. Impressive! One thing which I feel they could improve was to have 24-hour in-room dining. Yes there are a lot of eateries outside the hotel, and they have a restaurant from 9am to 5pm, but it'll be nice to have the option of munching something at night in the comfort of our room. But that's a small matter. I will definitely come back to GLOW on my next trip to Penang!

Staffs were really friendly and very informative. The hotel is also located on a busy main street so you don't need to be afraid to walk in a dark alley and such. There are local coffee shops nearby that sells penang food nearby. A bus stop is just a few minutes walk away. If you're not used to local coffee, just grab Starbucks right beside the hotel.

There are local coffee shops nearby that sells penang food nearby. A bus stop is just a few minutes walk away. If you're not used to local coffee, just grab Starbucks right beside the hotel. There's a 7-11 right beside the hotel so fret not if you're hungry in the middle of the night. The double bed in the room can easily fit 3 people. There was a window, but there's no view from our side of the room. (Open the window and what you get is hot air-con air and other room's windows) I would not recommend this hotel for people who likes space-a lot of space. But if you're a backpacker and just want a nice bed and a nice bathroom at the end of the day, then this would be a perfect choice. There is iron and computers provided at the lobby. My advice? Just make sure your booking includes air-condition (12 hrs or 24 hrs)fees, bath set and check if you need a late check out (if you're checking out late you'll be charged extra).

It is located at a unglamour street at Georgetown but the hotel, staffs and room is one of the best I had encountered. When I arrived on day 1, I was greeted by the friendly staffs and their manager at counter, Rita Lee took the effort to remember my name and addressed me by my name. Throughtout my stay, I was greeted and addressed by my name. Ask yourself which hotel you had went to had greeted by your name throughout your stay even from day 1. Even 5 star hotels do not do that unless you are VIP. Location wise, once you are out of the hotel, round the corner there is a local coffeeshop. Opposite the hotel there cafe and restaurants. 5mins walk to Komtar bus terminal and Pragnin mall. 10mins walk to Penang street art and many museums around that area. Room is fantastic. Nice pillows, soft bed and bathroom comes with the traditional Japanese wooden bucket and stool for bathing. Love it so much. This hotel even provide free 2kg laundry and free happy hour drinks at their rooftop bar. A lot of guests are couples and I can sense the sweet looks on their face. If anyone wants to visit Penang, this is the hotel you should go.

Comfortable stay in clean nice deco room...spacious enough for two. Friendly staffs and English speaking. Buffet breakfast alright with limited choice. We lunch and dine out at walking distance eateries as far as Komtar and the Clan jetties. Many street arts are close to the hotel and so are mosque, temple and church! Unfortunately there is no nearby bus stop to ...Comfortable stay in clean nice deco room...spacious enough for two. Friendly staffs and English speaking. Buffet breakfast alright with limited choice. We lunch and dine out at walking distance eateries as far as Komtar and the Clan jetties. Many street arts are close to the hotel and so are mosque, temple and church! Unfortunately there is no nearby bus stop to the hotel and I believe Komtar is the closest. However it is cheap calling Grab in Penang. Unless it is not within the control of the hotel, I suggest an improvement of its WiFi performance is a must...and that is the only downside during our stay.

The best thing about the Hotel Sentral has to be its location. It is within five minutes of the KOMTAR bus terminal where for about the 3MYR approximately 1USD you can take the public bus to most attractions in Penang. Also within three to five minutes from the hotel you can find plenty of food stalls serving up delicious Indian and Chinese street foods.

Also within three to five minutes from the hotel you can find plenty of food stalls serving up delicious Indian and Chinese street foods. Near the hotel you can find quite a few KTV bars, as well as other bars and seafood restaurants. There were also no less than 3 malls, with a cinema and wide variety of restaurants within 5-10 minutes walking distance. You should definitely opt for breakfast. It is a nice buffet spread, with a variety of choices: both Western and Asian, hot and cold food. The room was cleaned daily, good toiletries were provided as well as water bottles, and the staff was accommodating. They supplied us with adapters, and answered as many of our questions as possible. I would recommend getting a map of Penang before arriving at the hotel--they seemed to be out of it everyday we were there. Hot commodity I suppose? In any event, I would certainly recommend staying here. You could take the bus to Upper Penang for some Western nightlife spots like Soho Freehouse and Slippery Senoritas. I suppose one could possibly walk there within 15-20 minutes, however just be aware with Western spots come Western prices.

we booked a triple room with separate rooms, and it looked exactly as the pictures. the beds were comfy and clean, bathroom was also clean. I was actually very pleased to get the room with window facing straight to the street, but bcos Penang was extremely hot during our visit (33 to 34°C), the room's temp was not great. fortunately, the hotel provided us with addition...we booked a triple room with separate rooms, and it looked exactly as the pictures. the beds were comfy and clean, bathroom was also clean. I was actually very pleased to get the room with window facing straight to the street, but bcos Penang was extremely hot during our visit (33 to 34°C), the room's temp was not great. fortunately, the hotel provided us with additional cooler. the staff was also nice to let us checked in earlier (around 12pm), and gave us a late check-out too, until 1.30pm. deposit was 100 RM, and 12 RM per night for tax, which you will pay when you checked in. location and its surroundings were good, not too noisy at night, and just a little walk to ride the CAT free bus (alight from Nasi Kandar Pelita). all in all, me and my parents were satisfied during our stay at Eton Hotel :)

What stood out is the hospitality of the staff - always ready to help and serve with a smile. Location is pretty gd and some really gd food within walking distance or a short Grab ride away like RM$4. Though the room was spacious and clean, ours faced the mosque and road.

Location is pretty gd and some really gd food within walking distance or a short Grab ride away like RM$4. Though the room was spacious and clean, ours faced the mosque and road. Hence noisy vehicles or people walking past could be heard til the wee hours. Some of the street light also spilt into our room. As early as 5plus am, prayers could be heard from the mosque but it was a brief one so we would stir a bit before falling back to sleep. You may wish to consider if you're a light sleeper. Other than these factor, our stay is a really pleasant one. We enjoyed the bfast. On the last day, we had to depart at 8am but their kitchen only operated at the time. However, the staff were nice enough to make special arrangement to have our bfast packed (sandwich, green apple and bottled water) and nicely left at the counter when we checked out. We really appreciate that. Thank you so much Areca!

One of the best local hotels I've ever stayed. The experience is far better than even some international hotel chains. The boss is always on the ground to ensure that things move like clockwork. Location is definitely within walking distance to the main Penang highlights such as local hawker food and street arts. Room is neither too small nor too big but just enough.

Location is definitely within walking distance to the main Penang highlights such as local hawker food and street arts. Room is neither too small nor too big but just enough. Toilet is minimalist styled with adequate features. Since the hotel opened in mid 2014 (IIRC), all equipment and interiors look new. We happened to stay over Christmas where the hotel organised a complimentary local street food for all guests. Staffs are friendly and speak good English with good local knowledge of Penang. Two things to highlight but are not fully within control of the hotel 1. Unstable Wifi connection multiple lost connections & 2. Our room was facing the mosque with prayers starting at 6am in the morning. Nonetheless, I'll definitely make this hotel my choice on my next visit to Penang!

One of the reasons why I booked my stay at Armenian Suite Hotel is because of how lovely their beds looked. It was exactly what was shown on the photos in Agoda and it was perfect.

It was exactly what was shown on the photos in Agoda and it was perfect. It was a struggle to find the hotel at first but once I got familiar with the streets, I realized the property was located at the heart of Georgetown, where some of the famous street wall arts can be found. What I love about this hotel is the care they offer their guests. This boutique hotel have the most amazing staff. I had tummy trouble during my stay and was sick the entire time. Miss Christine helped me with my laundry concerns and told me directions where to eat. Miss Irene helped me buy the medicine for my diarrhea from the pharmacy across the hotel. And Mr. Tony was so so so kind enough as to accompany me in the early hours of the morning just to show me where the 24-hour clinic was located in Little India. I'm deeply touched by the genuine gesture and I would never have expected to receive such excellent customer service from them. I'll be forever grateful for their kindness. I'll definitely book with Armenian Suite Hotel again in a heartbeat!

Best location in George Town, near almost to all recommended street food is within walking distance, such as Chulia, Campbell, etc. Also next door there's a convenience store that opens 24/7. Supporting staff, nice and clean room. We stay at the room outside but absolutely quiet. Highly recommend. Also try free coffee and waterin common area. Will back to this hote...Best location in George Town, near almost to all recommended street food is within walking distance, such as Chulia, Campbell, etc. Also next door there's a convenience store that opens 24/7.
