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.

Pros: service in Traders Hotel was excellent really. The staffs were keen to make sure that you enjoyed your stay there, and are really fantastic in their side role as a "tour guide." They were unconditional in the effort that they provided to us, and always had a smile whenever they dealt with us. I really thought that they excelled in service. Basic room services lik...Pros: service in Traders Hotel was excellent really. The staffs were keen to make sure that you enjoyed your stay there, and are really fantastic in their side role as a "tour guide." They were unconditional in the effort that they provided to us, and always had a smile whenever they dealt with us. I really thought that they excelled in service. Basic room services like changing of towels etc. were well done. Location was fantastic, and during the trip, I really felt that the location alone meant that I made the right choice in choosing Traders, apart from other choices like Dorsett, etc. Traders is just situated beside Komtar tower in which you could take pratically all the buses that you need to cover all places. Each bus ride cost 1-2 ringgit, while providing a fantastic atmosphere of travelling. Taking taxis everywhere is certainly possible, though the mark up is really high and is definitely not worth it. You could reach the same place through buses, though you may need to spend slightly more time (5-10 mins more). Nearby to Jalan Mcallister and Penang road, these are two great night areas. With the former being a night hawker area serving really great local food at economic prices, and the latter being a famed nightlife area with pubs and clubs. All are within walking distance. It's one of the cheaper 5 star hotel around in Georgetown, given it's location, service and quality, the amount that you pay for certainly is a steal. Cons: Well, the rooms were slightly disappointing. That doesn't mean that it's poor though, it just didn't feel as grand as i thought a 5 star should have. Perhaps 4.5 star quality. That's about it for the cons.

I am not a big fan of the Sunway group but decided on the hotel because of its location in the heart of Georgetown and because it has a private covered carpark. Also liked the look of the newly refurbished super deluxe rooms in pictures. Was a bit worried after reading the mixed reviews.

Also liked the look of the newly refurbished super deluxe rooms in pictures. Was a bit worried after reading the mixed reviews. Thankfully, getting a super deluxe room on the 5th floor for 4 nights was the right choice. Our room, which had a view of Kek Lok Si and Penang Hill in the distance, was as good as it looked online. Stylish, clean and modern, it just lacked pictures on the walls. The strong water pressure and constant hot water at the shower were excellent. Hardly heard the drilling / renovation works. The only time we were bothered by the renovation was on the day we were checking out - they were working on the lift lobby on the ground floor and it was awkward when getting in and out of the lifts. Buffet breakfast in the function rooms on the lower ground floor was nice enough. Liked the Indian bread and curry, Chinese porridge, nasi lemak and bread+butter pudding. The food was tasty but could perhaps do with more changes each morning. A few of the waiting-staff were really friendly and enjoyed talking with the guests. Although we had a car, it was an easy walk to the food stalls / coffee-shops and shopping malls like Times Square, First Avenue / Komtar and Prangin Mall. Wondered at first what the colonial-style building next door was, we found out later that it houses the Penang state art gallery.

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. 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.

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. 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 servic...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. 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 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.

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.

I was a bit nervous with this choice after reading so many bad reviews. Upon arrival I was met with a very efficient and quick check in staff. After getting in my room I was pleasantly surprised to see a beautiful and clean room. I first cranked up my iPad and telephone and the wifi was smokingly fast. The air condition worked perfectly and the shower was one of the best if had in asia with plenty of pressure AND no flooding in the room as mentioned in some of the reviews. The TV had enough English speaking and sports channels but the internet was so good I just plugged in my chromcast ant watched my favorite channels. If I want to be picky I could say they didn't serve bacon. I'm surprised someone didn't complain about that. Breakfast had an Asian flair with the noodle dishes, chicken, rice and vegetables. They did have scrambled eggs, baked beans, and chicken ham sausage. Not a proper Full English breakfast but excellent for the room price paid. And let's not forget the excellent security guard who goes above and beyond his job to assist with bags or offer assistance with any questions one may have.

At first i was a bit hesitant to booked in this hotel. By the name itself 1926 Heritage Hotel, it crossed my mine antique houses, of course! when its old it has something different. However it was a bit too late for me to looked for any other hotel online. (i.e. i booked the hotel less than a week before my flight to Penang from Johore. and because it was a late night ...At first i was a bit hesitant to booked in this hotel. By the name itself 1926 Heritage Hotel, it crossed my mine antique houses, of course! when its old it has something different. However it was a bit too late for me to looked for any other hotel online. (i.e. i booked the hotel less than a week before my flight to Penang from Johore. and because it was a late night flight. i decided to booked rather than look for a hotel by the time we got there ).But contrary to all my weird imagination.. the hotel's atmosphere is completely different. Once inside, i felt like im just a foot away from home. From accommodating staff to the room itself.. very nostalgic.. I also got the experience of being able to feel how governor used to live.Wow!!!truly high-class.. In the morning we had complimentary breakfast buffet style. Food is good. The location of the hotel is not so far away from Komtar (main bus station).. If your business is to mainly to (jalan-jalan)scout around, do sight seeing it is best to walk. Find and appreciate all other heritage buildings which are not even included in the brochure's map..once you do all the sight seeing, it is not so hard to find your way back to your hotel since buses passes in its main road.

value for money...cheap hotel with very best location.. it is located in penang road. near kheng pin cafe (the famous loh bak in penang). many shops that sell clothes and t shirt.. just with walking distance..it is more cheaper than buying in the mall.. many food stalls.

Garden food court is a few steps away (where the famous kimpo duck rice is located ).. maybe the building is a little bit old (the others have the newer and better appearance than this one.. but of course they are more costly).. almost every grab or uber driver know where it is.. this hotel is near to all of point interests in penang (3-6rm by uber). i book family room for 4persons..with breakfast..the food is almost the same for 3days.. but looking at the price it is good lahh.. very reasonable.. and the staff is very helpful.. they changed the bed sheet and towel everyday..so happy to stay in this hotel for 3nights

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.

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. 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.

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 ...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

The hotel is gorgeous. My partner and I felt like arriving to a fancy hotel, even though we only paid $63 per night! If you can go on week days is better, because it is a popular hotel and is usually fully booked.

However, if you arrive in a quiet day, they can upgrade your room free of charge.Internet drops out a bit, but nothing dramatic. The hotel food is not the best, but is worth paying for if you go to the revolving restaurant. The pool is all right and the spa is ok. the massages are very reasonably priced and good. I would recommend this place any time.

Overall good, I booked for family rooms, pictures from agoda is totally different when you walk in into the room. I seriously think that Agoda should change all the hotels photos in the booking website with current hotel condition, travelers are not cheated by the hotels, for me it's all Agoda pictures.

I seriously think that Agoda should change all the hotels photos in the booking website with current hotel condition, travelers are not cheated by the hotels, for me it's all Agoda pictures. We cannot blame the hotel, Agoda should change. The cleanliness is good, I cannot say it's excellent, nice pool but no any pool towel, have to bring room towel, have no choice in breakfast, the hotel management should change the menu in daily basis. Provided salt instead of pepper for fried eggs, lucky i noticed and they changed it to pepper. Its seems the cook is new (foreigner), just smile for everything we ask. Excellent free parking for hotel guest, since it's a old building, parking are a bit narrow, careful when you drive a big cars,nice location, friendly reception, value for money for those who prefer budget stay with family, need for power point and a bit slow wifi.

best point is the hotel staff, very friendly and alert. the house keeping is not so good thou. our pillow was smelly when we arrived and changed upon request. the next morning we were late to leave the room and the house keeping were forceful on request us to allow him to come in to do his duty while we were still in the room getting ready for our day. convenient stall...best point is the hotel staff, very friendly and alert. the house keeping is not so good thou. our pillow was smelly when we arrived and changed upon request. the next morning we were late to leave the room and the house keeping were forceful on request us to allow him to come in to do his duty while we were still in the room getting ready for our day. convenient stall within hotel. breakfast is average. location is great. parking is a bit limited. air conditioner was good, its cold. the room is big enough.

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.

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.

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.

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!

We stayed there four nights. Lucky we were on the 9th floor this time. Supprisingly, we saw the ocean throm our room's window and it was a ocean view room. Great location was the best of the stay.

It is only about 10 mins walk to the COMMTA (can't remember the spell)which is the shopping and transportation center. what's more the hotel is 10 mins walk to a lot famous eating site. But there was also 2 down points. 1. We are not able to check in before 14. Additional fee will be charged for early check in. We took the overnight flight and exausted when we found the hotel. And we waited over 1.5 hours to be checked in. 2. Someone triggered fire alarm in the hotel(most probably sb smoked in the room). It occured twice in our 4 nights stay!!! All others are good, and I will recommend it a valuable hotel to stay.

Superb location where you can easily walk to Pragin Mall, Lebuh Kimberly with tonne of nice local foods even at 11pm! If you are hunting for local food in Penang, this is the best hotel for you. Anyhow, the hotel breakfast especially fresh orange juice and roti canai are just excellent, unfortunately our stomach is too small to fit so many foods! Also, thanks Rita Lee ...Superb location where you can easily walk to Pragin Mall, Lebuh Kimberly with tonne of nice local foods even at 11pm!

Anyhow, the hotel breakfast especially fresh orange juice and roti canai are just excellent, unfortunately our stomach is too small to fit so many foods! Also, thanks Rita Lee (PR Manager) for walking us to the cheap and nice Kuey Teow Soup! Last but not least, the roof top bar is serving free and unlimited coffee, cookies and ice cream, also the complimentary red wine is so so sweet to us! Will definitely recommend to all my friends who visit to Penang to stay at this hotel as the services are much more better than some of the 5 star hotel!

I have never had such a bargain for a hotel ! It has an unbelievable location within 5 minutes walk to KOMTAR, right in the middle of all the best food icons .

The service is right up there with the very best 5 star hotels and the rooms are spanking new, clean and extremely comfortable. There is also a simple but very adequate buffet breakfast. I honestly think that it would be extremely difficult to beat Hotel Sentral for VALUE.

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 :)

We had issues trying to open the door to the twin room we had booked. The manager came almost immediately and offered to upgrade us to a family suite. We were thrilled with the gesture and have to say that throughout our stay, we found the staff friendly, attentive and responsive There a few of things that the hotel could improve on.

We were thrilled with the gesture and have to say that throughout our stay, we found the staff friendly, attentive and responsive There a few of things that the hotel could improve on. First, wifi strength in the hotel needs to be improved on. We were each given passwords for our devices. My friend had brought her Apple TV which failed to load - there was simply no connection. Phone devices were ok but signal strength was not the best. Secondly, there is no door separating the shower/toilet from the dressing room which was quite inconvenient when you are sharing a room or are in need of some privacy. Management should look into this - it wouldn't take much to install a door between the areas. Double glazing would be nice too, to block out the street noise (luckily this area is quieter part of the city) and the adhan/calls to prayer.

Travelling in a group with 4 generations, young boy to an elderly in a wheel chair, we all loved the hotel. The best part was the high standard of cleanliness & hygiene, staff was constantly mopping & vaccuming common corridors plus the great comfort food served (from local breakfast cuisine to the 24 hrs coffee, ice cream, biscuits corner & the free beers/wines/ soft ...Travelling in a group with 4 generations, young boy to an elderly in a wheel chair, we all loved the hotel. The best part was the high standard of cleanliness & hygiene, staff was constantly mopping & vaccuming common corridors plus the great comfort food served (from local breakfast cuisine to the 24 hrs coffee, ice cream, biscuits corner & the free beers/wines/ soft drinks entitlement at the roof top bar). Feels just like a top end four star hotel less the swimming pool. Great location - walking distance to Penang road where all the local shops for the cheap sleepwear, t shirts & jerseys, medical oils, five spice powders & tau sar piahs. Not forgetting the famous laska, cendol stand and nasi kandar shop yummy just located 10mins away from the hotel. The night food centre too also 10 mins away. If it was easy access for me with a overactive kid & a wheelchair bound, you all will love the place. Lastly, my 5 year old son discovered a penang rapid bus travelling from the hotel to komtar & batu ferringi (sun shine coast with horse riding) & gurdey drive for RM1.50. Will definately be back with my work buddies!

We were very pleased with our stay at this hotel. Our room was very clean and modern and the beds were comfortable. They did a great job modernizing the place yet still retain the old world charm of a heritage building.

Our room was very clean and modern and the beds were comfortable. They did a great job modernizing the place yet still retain the old world charm of a heritage building. It feels peaceful and zen like because the outdoors were incorporated into the design bringing in the sunlight and brightening up the rooms and community areas. There is even a garden where you can sit and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea and surf the Internet. The best thing about the hotel however is Jesse. He is stellar, always smiling and very quick and attentive to fulfill our requests. His laughs are contagious so be careful when you talk to him! He is engaging and a great conversatiionist with an array of topics. He knows customer service and it is very well appreciated by us. We walked away with heavy backpacks but a light warm feeling about our experience with the hotel and GT because of Jesse. Hope all your dreams come true Jesse! We will miss you!

Located in the heart of Armenian street, this hotel is steps away from George Town's more famous street art, as well as quaint museums, galleries, curiosity shops, and restaurants. I need to mention if your looking for a bit of nightlife in the area, this spot is far from it as most of the establishments close up early. If you're travelling as a family, this hotel may be wrong for you as it has no elevators and very narrow stairways. Also, the hotel has seen better days. The room we got seemed a bit run down, and the faucet wouldn't stop leaking. The hotel's internet was also not reliable at all. But I feel that the hotel's strong points far outweigh its weaknesses. A cheap decent room in the middle of it all, with pretty rooms and a friendly staff. Perfect for budget travellers and couples looking to do something different,
