            Best Budget Hotel in Penang”

            As someone who pays attention to services and amenities offered by a hotel, I can say that The Southern Boutique Hotel provided me with one of the best staycation experience at a very pocket friendly price. Not only the room is aesthetically pleasing, the staffs were also really friendly, polite and very attentive. If you’re looking for a place to stay, do consider this place as it is located in the heart of Georgetown where everything is within walking distance!

            Strategic location. 3 mins walking to Sup Hameed, nasi kandar line clear, blue mansion. 5 mins to chow rasta, teo chew, ais tingkap, bee hwa, roti bakar hutton lane. 10 mins to Komtar & padang kota. Hotel itself is beautiful. Minimalist interior. Clean & staff very friendly. They have nice rooftop to chill (my fav). Environment is very quiet & peaceful. Recommended & definitely going to stay here again in the future.

            We booked the family room and it was located outside. Safety was guaranteed by magnetic locked door and blackout curtain. The room has this modern vibe. I love their sink, very old school. Was concerned about noise outside but we had no problem with that (probably bcs we were too tired haha) the price is also affordable, would definitely coming back to this place next time!

            The boutique hotel is very beautiful, especially the lobby area. For the price we paid, the room is indeed a bit small but worth the value. Located at a very convenient location so that you can explore the city by way of walking.

            From the foyer to my room, the hotel was immaculately clean and visually appealing. The room is exactly right for two people,and the toilet is stunning and the staffs are well trained and professional. The hotel has adequate conveniences such as an iron and microwave outside the hallway. The main disadvantages of the hotel are that is rather noisy due to its strategic location in town,and there is no guest parking,however there is private parking opposite thd hotel for rm2 per hour
