Evergreen Laurel Hotel Penang
Georgetown, 53 Persiaran Gurney 🧭 Map
nice and clean room location is near to the Georgetown city
Nice hotel to stay in city area. Service is excellent. Has swimming pool, separate ladies and gentlemen jacuzzi, sauna, kids club,fitness. Room is big and clean. Air conditioning is good. Breakfast menu is good. Worth the price staying here.
The hotel and the rooms overall looks dated but clean. Staff service was at par with the usual 4/5* rating. Most of them are able to speak in English. Location is great with many local food available with ½ km and malls as well. This is the ideal location. For a holiday. The only strange thing was that housekeeping claimed they do not allow guests to borrow knives.
Ample of parking lots at multi storey parking at the back of hotel . Swimming pools for family. Sauna, jacuzzi (hot and cool) and steam room. (Separate for male and female) and children are not allowed to use these facilities. Two nicely painted tennis courts available. Cool kids room. Drink at the freezer is free to consume. Clean room with cool air con. TV a bit old and not many channels available...

Great to bring elders and older adults to stay in. + Cleanliness is great + Room is huge + Heaps of Complementary drinks + Breakfast is good, worth the price. + Great location. Near gurney plaza. + Room has good sound proof - hotel is old, my shower had some issue. - room is a bit dark. - senior staffs were great but the...
Great hotel. Clean and excellent services from check in to checkout. Room requested for higher floor at 1219 is spacious, clean and excellent facilities. Love the breakfast and where else can you get free apples daily with complimentary mini bar. Location is perfect and gym facilities is great too

The hotel is beautiful. It’s a bit far from the city center though. The staff were helpful but not so friendly. The restaurants were good but did not offer traditional Malaysian cuisine. The pool area is gorgeous and relaxing.
Overall experience is great. Loved the bed and firm yet comfy pillows. Breakfast spread was great, with a pleasant surprise of fresh passion fruit. First room service experience here, western food and pizza come in huge portion and tasted great. Local delicacies were over priced though :P Would have given 5 star if the hotel could be more baby and kid friendly
Built in 1990 but has lost nothing of its charm. Rooms are well maintained, spacious and clean. A large pool with a relaxing outdoor area to sit down for a snack or drink is a nice place to be in the late afternoon or evening. Its proximity to the nearby golf course with all its greenery gives the hotel a laid back feeling.
Had the pleasure of celebrating my birthday here. I was not disappointed. The food is excellent especially the deserts. The romantic ambiance of the place with the songs played really sets the mood. The staff is very courteous. The view from The View is also nice. Loved the place!
Room is comfort and the view is peaceful. The environment is well maintained. Pool is nice and have hot tub. Breakfast is great and the price is reasonable. Add on breakfast is 50% off when staying in the hotel (very happy with this offer). Staff is very friendly and welcoming (specially pool and dining area). Will definitely repeat staying here.
Wonderful area with good view and fresh air. Convenient to famous area like Georgetown airport and other by shuttle bus providing by hotel.

Hotel staff are very friendly and checkin was very smooth , will come again.
terbaikkk. sangat selesa, services best, breakfast pon sedappppp. request suprise for my husband’s bday, got 2 slice of cake and simple deco
Great service from checking in to the room. Even manage to accomdate me with my request of a higher floor. Very very satisfied..will definitely be back
Good location good view . Transit 1 day before toward kl . Thank you n will stay again
good view ...breakfast nice too...nice place to stay ...it also have a a lot of parking space
The DoubleTree Resort is an excellent choice for a family-focused getaway with great amenities and service. However, if you're looking for a location with immediate access to George Town's city life and street food, its slightly secluded location may be a drawback.

Shangri-La Rasa Sayang, Penang1 / 49

Batu Ferringhi, Jalan Batu Feringgi 🧭 Map
This has come to be my favourite hotel in Penang now. Very close to the beach (though not recommended to swim at the beach). Well kept room. Friendly and warm staffs. Will surely be back whenever i return to Penang.
Very good services provided by every staff in the hotel. Break fast is good with many choice and seafood buffet at Friday/Saturday night is good too but bit slow in restock the seafood. Room is spacious but view not very good as booked the sea view but the view is blocked by trees. Asked to change a room and reception also happy to assist and bring us to check the room before change
Environment, Sea view, food, The facilities are very complete and all are very good.
I had a delightful two-night stay at Shangri-La Penang! The lush greenery and big old trees provided lovely shade, creating a relaxing atmosphere while I sit near the pool or beach. The beach offered nice sunset view, but I am unsure if it’s swimmable We stayed in the Rasa Wing room, which came with lounge access and complimentary cocktails in the evening. The staff were warm and friendly, making...
Very Nice hotel and staff, the front desk upgrade our room from garden wing to rasa wing which is more spacious and have prestige lounge and swimming pool for rasa wing guest. Really an excellent experience
Overall, we had a good experience at the resort. My child loved exploring the beach and pool, and the resort environment was wonderful. We even received a complimentary upgrade to a deluxe room! However, I was a bit disappointed with the food—the taste just wasn’t up to standard. The only major issue was with the toilet blind, which needed repair. While I appreciate the technician coming to fix...

Batu Ferringhi, Batu Ferringhi Beach 🧭 Map
Pros The mattress, pillows and beddings are very comfortable as expected from a global hotel chain. Hotel staff are quite friendly, helpful etc Room cleanliness level is acceptable Having a machine dispensing ice, cold and room temperature drinking water outside guest rooms is a nice touch especially for the weather Cons The quality of the wide spread buffet breakfast did not match expectations
My stay at Parkroyal is always wonderful. The staff are warmth and always ready to entertain in whatever needs that I have. They are very thoughtful in their service which is commendable. Everything else there just makes up for a complete wonderful staycation.
It was a rushed booking, but they didnt dissapoint. Went as celebration for birthday and everything was good. Hotel was kind enough to give us complimentary birthday cake when we told them. Food: only tried the breakfast buffet, 8/10. So many varieties, and they were good except for the sambal nasi lemak. Room: Bed, soooooo comfy. And you can change the pillow as to your likings. The bar soap, shower...
Room spacious with sofa bed inside even adult can sleep on that. Breakfast was very good and staff nice. Hotel was clean and had given welcome drink. Got playroom for kids and such many activities provided. Overall fantastic!!
We stayed in few hotels around Ferringhi but Park Royal was indeed remarkable. The service level was top notch. Even during breakfast rush hour, Saras attended us with a smile on her face. Thank you for the hospitality and will definitely come again.
The shower room next to the swimming pool has a water heater, which is the best feature. They offer shampoo for hair and body wash gel as well. After checking out, my family can still go there to shower after playing at the pool and beach. It's a great convenience.

Very accomodating hotel stay. The nutmeg drink service daily at lobby is delicious.
Hotel location is excellent. Use the side road of carpark for an easy walk to Cecil Street Food Court. If you walk straight across the traffic light to Komtar, you can ride the free CAT bus (15 minute frequency). Or else take GRAB. Easy walk to 1st Avenue Mall that is connected to Prangin Mall (2nd storey). The hotel is well maintained & quiet facing as requested for our 4 night stay. It would be...
Stayed two nights with parents. Both rooms were fairly maintained, “fairly” in the sense that furnitures couldn’t close properly, stains, wear and tear visible, and old televisions with blurry displays. However, service was top notch and location was unbeatable. I hope some upgrades can be done, especially on par with the price that we paid for it. Overall I’d come back to stay again, if I see...
We were upgraded to premium lounge, which includes breakfast, afternoon tea and evening cocktails. It's a great gesture for me as I am going through chemo therapy, the hygiene issue is top priority for me. I was truly appreciative to have a quiet and peaceful environment to have all my meals in the hotel. St. Giles has the most comfortable linens that you can find. I slept well and hope to return...
Excellent hotel with easy access to nearby malls and markets, friendly and helpful staff rendered to customers requests with full commitments and follow up. Will definitely return on my next visits
First time staying in St Giles Wembley Penang. Location in Georgetown is very convenient to visit various tourist attractions. Hotel room is spacious. Receptions, housekeeping and cafe staffs helpful and friendly. Will definitely book the hotel again next time travelling to Penang.

Georgetown, 33 New Lane (Off Macalister Road) 🧭 Map
Excellent cleanliness. Breakfast not bad. Good value for money.
Review of Sunway Hotel, George Town I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Sunway Hotel in George Town, and I was thoroughly impressed with its prime location, making it incredibly convenient to explore the surrounding attractions. One standout feature was the spaciousness of the room, which far exceeded what you typically find in newly developed hotels. While the decor and finishing did feel...
Great location with many eatery and local products shops around. Good stay with parking
A four-star hotel should not provide towels with torn edges or bedsheets stained with blood and other unknown marks. Equally disappointing was the breakfast, which offered limited choices and lacked flavor.
Close to all the food centre and easy check-in. Overall, it was a great experience.
Helpful staff and good location. Suggest to travel by Grab for places of interest within Georgetown to avoid hassle of parking. Walls a little thin and could faintly hear noises from outside, else everything is good.

Georgetown, 139, Jalan Pintal Tali 🧭 Map
Excellent location for food as the famous Kimberly Duck Kwap Chap is just outside round the bend. There is also a shopping mall nearby 5mins walk away. There is also a Michelin award restaurant inside the hotel serving excellent food.. Hotel guest have discount too.
The staff are very helpful and friendly. I appreciate the helpfulness of the staff whom was on duty on Aug 10 at noon.
Everything is good as well as location. But the bed is quite stiff, I recommend the hotel to add a additional layer of mattress topper to improve the sleeping experience!
Closed to Kimberly night market and several attraction points. Good to stay here for travelling around Georgetown. Staff very polite and responsive.
Hotel is central and close to everything you would need. The main bus station is nearby catching bus 401E will get you to the hotel and return. It will cost you 3.7 ringgit the driver does not offer change so bring 4 x 1 or exact. You can also purchase a 1 week unlimited pass for think it was 36 ringgit if you plan to use the bus often (purchased at main station). Hotel is quite clean, service is...
The place is closed to everything i love eg. Food, bubble tea, chagee, all sweet thing. Staff very nice and helpful. The room is fine but toilet is not that clean. The floor in shower area is hurt my feet 😬

Georgetown, Corner of Jalan Hutton & Lebuh Clarke 🧭 Map
Staff is nice and helpful but the room is quite old and the floor produced sound while stepping on.
But not suitable with guest who came with own vehicles because so hard to find parking around the hotel area. Also, during our stay aircond is not functioning in one of the room. Called the maintenance but still the problem is not fix.
Our fav hotel everytime we hit penang island. The best.. our daughter lovessss the bathtub so much. Me too.. will repeat!!!
Location is unbeatable and very charming hotel, but the overall quality match well with the price you pay.
We stayed for 3 nights here! Check-in was swift since we arrived at the hotel ~5pm. We loved the spacious room with vintage Peranakan decor. The king-bed was so comfortable. Best experience was the bathtub with jacuzzi! After a hot day touring around Penang, a long soak in the tub was very refreshing! The air-conditioner tripped on our last night 😭. Thankfully the ceiling fan was strong enough to keep...
I love the heritage cultural, wooden style, historical vibe and especially the first time I'm seeing a bathtub with jacuzzi. Fully furnished and also outside have a water dispenser without worrying to look for water. Very convenient place to stay and also walkable to mamak, street food, restaurants and cafe's nearby. Will come back again the next time when I come to Penang again. 🫶🏼👍🏼👍🏼

As soon as you enter the main hall, you can feel a positive atmosphere of calm and serenity. The style is well-maintained. Clean rooms. Courteous and attentive staff. Good location, just a few minutes from the historic center. I would gladly return. Perhaps the only downside is the noise coming from the various air conditioners.
A pleasant stay with complimentary afternoon tea daily from 3pm to 5pm. I'm lucky to have an early check in 😊 Small issues like the toilet door got stuck and couldn't open, remote batteries went flat, hand towels missed out after make up room - these were resolved fast, so no major concerns. The location is great, good food is within walking distance and shopping malls are nearby. Best is roti prata...
It’s a convenient location and easy to get around. Lots of nice food nearby too. A cosy hotel and the rooms are clean.
Pleasantly surprised to find the rooms super big & location of the hotel right in the heart of George Town. Simple afternoon tea included. Cross a street to get to Chowrasta Market, Kimberly Night Market & famous Penang Chendol . Paid street parking is limited during the day but by night, it's quite available. Light sleepers, do note that you can easily hear traffic noise/ other guests along corridor
We love the room, antique furniture, and spacious room. Beautiful courtyard garden.
Pros: stylish renovation, clean and tidy, near popular eateries Cons: surroundings got beggars, no good views outside, too dim inside the room

They truly stand out as the best team in the entire hotel. Location: Great! The hotel is close to many popular visitor spots and a variety of famous food. Front Desk: The service was just okay. Housekeeping: This needs improvement. The...
Excellent Stay with a Great Location I had a fantastic experience at Jen Penang Georgetown Hotel. The room was immaculate, spacious, and thoughtfully designed with an armchair and king bed. I particularly appreciated the automated bidet in the toilet. The hotel's location was ideal, close to TOP Komtar and First Avenue Mall, yet it still felt peaceful and private. What truly stood out was...
