happy stay at here”

overall im so satisfied with this hotel. althought the furniture is old, but he room is very clean. the bed sheets is smells very good. the carpet was not smelly. the air con was work perfectly. im stay with 2 young children. they was so happy about the swimming pool. it have 2 big slide. but the bottom of the pool was a lik bit sandy cause beside the pool there was a volley bal field. I was dtay at 2 bedroom suites for 3 nite. theres a coffe bean shop beside the hotel. every nite i bought cake for my children they like it so much. n behind the hotel there was a subway restaurant. it make me n my hubby so happy . the drive time to gurney paragon n gurney plaza is only 5 mins. so overall I was happy tonstay at this hotel. Ps. the breakfast is standar. but enough for us. cause the option of food was not too little but the taste was standard. maybe the complaint should be the corridor to the room a bit hot. maybe the air con not work properly when i was stay there . definetly coming back to this hotel when going to penang again. ^^

good location”

our penang trip was short, we therefore booked 2-bedroom suite at the gurney resort hotel & residence for just a night. as always, the big children swimming pool and the wi-fi.. it's all complimentary. the gurney resort hotel & residence is our first choice.

Good location”

This hotel has been always my first choice of stay when in Penang. The reason is simply because of the location. It was very near to Gurney Drive. It took me about 10-15 minutes walk. You can really enjoy the walk as you will be walking along the seaside. Checking in was very smooth and the staff was very helpful and friendly. The room i stayed was nice and i can see the sea from my room. The room was spacious and nice. I requested for big bed and a king bed was waiting for me in the room. Overall, i was very happy with the room and it was worth of money. Definitely i will stay again and recommend this hotel to my friends.

The Hotel Is Value For Money”

The Hotel Staff Service Are Good & Friendly The Room Would Be Suitable For A Big Family, Because The Room Space Was So Wide. The Room Was So Clean & Tidy Suitable To Travel & The Hotel is Located in Middle Of Gurney Town I am Satisfied for what i paid & used to stay The Gurney Resort Hotel & Residence, Would Be Coming Again

Overall OK with the price you pay”

The main factor im staying here is beacause of the big pool for kids complete with a slider. Got a promo price this time which is very cheap compare from other hotels along the Gurney Drive. The room lil bit run down but it complete with a bath tub and also a jacuzzi. At first they put me at the room near the lift and please be in mind the hotel now doing major renovation for their elevator so everytime someone using the elavator the loud irritating sound can hear easily from my room. Call receptionist for exchange room and they pass me to their Manager that time name Amirul who very helpful and understand about my problem. Allow me to change another room which far form the elevator. Thank you Mr Amirul. The hotel have a ample basement parking facility but dont have a elevator from the basement parking but only have elevator. Please make sure you drop all ur big n heavy luggage at the main door first before u park ur car at the basement parking area.

Value for money and great service”

i would like to thank mr shafiz for my womderful stay. He take the initiative to give me the best moment at gurney hotel. He also arrange something special for my anniversary. He is a good example to other hotel. Friendly and helpful. Will definitely come stay again when i m in penang again. The location is also close to shopping mall n gurney drive.

WORTH OF STAYING ”

This is my 4th time staying here when i was in Penang. Love to stay here because the location is strategic at gurney area which is nearby with gurney drive and mall as well. The swimming pool is best. We love to swim there, bcs of the huge pool also kids pool area provided. But... Please add on more lighting inside the room and also mirror. Easier for us ladies especially to do makeup things. Overall is okay and nice to stay. Will keeps on staying here whenever i came to Penang for a short visit 😊

Strategic Location with Big and Clean Room ”

This hotel strategically located at Gurney Drive where you can find multiple restaurant and food courts within walking distance. Giant shopping complex - Gurney Plaza and Gurney Paragon is just about 5min walking from hotel too. The room is super huge, very spacious for my baby to walk and play around. However, my room is at 35th floor where each time need to consume longer time to wait for lift.

Really Joyful stay in Gurney Resort Hotel”

My wife and I really like to stay at the Gurney Resort Hotel First of all at the Front office, we will meet a luxurious lobby and receptionist who is very helpful to us. Next room, the room is very large and very complete, very suitable for couples and honeymoon But there is a little disturbance where the noise from the next room or what slightly disturbs the peace and comfort Whenever I have the chance to return to Penang, I will definitely stay again at the Gurney Resort Hotel

Affordable, Family friendly hotel”

Fast and easy check-in. We requested for a king size bed and a baby cot just before we went out for dinner and these were all set up by the time we returned. Room and bathroom was pretty large ( enough for my two year old to run around and not knock into things ). There's a recreational center on the 7th floor where we spent most afternoons lazing in the pool. Kids pool had slides and some other water features to keep them entertained. While we were there, we also saw a outdoor gym, beach volleyball court, children playroom. Location of hotel isn't exactly in the middle of Gurney drive (it's almost at the other end), but it's only a 10 min stroll along the beach to the newly opened Gurney Paragon and another 5 mins to Gurney Plaza and the eating area beside it. Areas that can be improved on: We asked for the in-room safe to be setup, but it never came. Sofa cushion had some mysterious stains on them. One of outdoor access card failed to work by the second day. Overall impression: good value for money. Family and kids friendly hotel. Extremely friendly staffs.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay here.”

My husband and I decided to have our short honeymoon trip to Penang. Therefore, I pre-booked this hotel (it had the best rating for the price). And I am so glad that I did. We stayed there for 2 nights. The staffs there are helpful. The room and bathroom were clean and tidy when we arrived. The room we had was partial ocean view. They also had free wifi which was a nice bonus. The location of this hotel is excellent . Only 5 minute walk to Gurney Shopping Mall a.k.a Gurney Plaza. Gurney Plaza has various well-known brands for shopping, dining and entertainment (Golden Screen Cinema) We were a little disappointed because we requested a king size bed, yet they gave us (my husband and I) 2 single beds. We are travelling by our own car, thus, public transport is not an issue. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here.

VERY SATISFIED”

This was my second stayed at Gurney Resort. No doubt and no complaint. Always at my expectation. My kids love the pool. We love the view from 15th floor (my first stayed) and 20th floor (2nd stayed). The location at Gurney Drive, best location, easy park, comfortable, huge room and clean toilet, best surrounding. Nothing to complaint at all. Will stay here next.

Horror night”

Our first night stay on 4 November 2017 was spoiled by heavy rain in the night. Five of us could not go out anywhere after dinner. We stayed on 32nd floor with nice sea view. In the middle of the night the rain was so heavy and the devil wind was roaring outside. One room was leaking profusely through the air con due to heavy rain got in from the wall hole. We got 30% discount for the room. Next day we were shocked to learn that 80% of Penang were flooded. Fortunately our hotel at Gurney Drive was not affected.

The location of the hotel is an advantage”

The hotel's location make it easier for us to go to various interesting places all over the island. A lot of interesting spot sorrounding the hotel along Gurney Drive itself and Kelawai Road. Driving from the hotel to Georgetown via Sultan Amad Shah Road is no hassle at all. We reached Old Padang Kota, Fort Cornwallis and Port Weld within few minutes by car at night. Awesome place to stay. The food are nice and reasonably priced.

The gurney hotel always the best selection for me ”

me and my partner stay in very relaxation and enjoyable weekend in gurney hotel. In fact we actually watching the TV live program for Singapore Mr Lee Guang Yew funeral Ceremony and we requested for late check out and the reception of gurney front desk service staff are so understandable for us to extend and finished this important ceremony for Mr Lee Guang Yew in Singapore even though I am overseas in Malaysia. I really thankful for this unreasonable extension But still I feel appreciation for this kind service from gurney hotel. Many thanks

Big room, relax and comfortable hotel”

When i check-in to the room, the life number can't see properly on the numbering figure. So that the next day morning, i having my morning breakfast. One of the lady technical person come to me and ask me what are the things need to be improve in the hotel. I let her know on the lift issue, that night when i reach to the hotel lift. I saw all the number can be see very clearly, next day morning she came to look for me again and ask me how is the lift number is okay. I said well done to her and the technical team. I'm very happy on my check-in and check-out on my luggage and others with the same person. He handle all my things very carefully and he like to joke with the people and very friendly. I have nothing to comment on this hotel and well done to all the hotel staff in the, The Gurney Resort Hotel & Residence.

A best place for honeymoon”

Thank you Gurney Resort Hotel for the amazing room and arrangement for our honeymoon. the view from the room at 35th floor is totally amazed. thank you so much for giving us a memorable experience at Gurney Resort Hotel. Keep up the good job <3

A perfect stay for my mom, kids and me!”

It is about the perfect hotel that i have always thought of whenever i come to penang to stay. My mom first time here and glad that she was really happy. My kids spent the whole time at the pool and they felt like they were by the seaside. The staff were very pleasant and they offered an in house wheelchair for my mom without having to wait for a request by me. Thumbs up to gurney hotel! I will definitely come back on mu next visit to penang!

Relaxing, comfortable, great food and service”

We had a great stay at The Gurney Resort! The room was large and comfortable with a fantastic view. The staff, especially the 2 of the concierge men were wonderfully entertaining, and extremely helpful. The swimming pools were great, both the kids and the adults pools. Nearby restaurants were great, particularly Bali Hai, thou it's extremely expensive - ($30 for fried fish - the most delicious fish ever!) on the whole I'd highly recommend this resort to anyone!
