Where to stay in Georgetown

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.

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.

The room is quite small, but it offers a lovely view. It's very clean, although we didn’t have enough space to store all our shopping bags. :) Mr Putasnen Nagadaran was exceptionally helpful and proactive. He made sure my early check-in request was fulfilled with a clean room ready upon arrival, and he even greeted me by name when he saw me in the corridor while he was checking other rooms. He took...

The hotel is quite small but when comparing to the price, it's reasonable.

Nice place, there are many delicious food nearby the hotel. I recommend the ice cream shop “Swatow Lane” and vegan restaurant “Coo Sweet Bun Vegetarian Restaurant”

cleanliness is good the soundproof not very good still can hear the noise from other travellers, the street vehicles and the sound of compressor. btw overall is good.

I would never stay at this hotel again unless I absolutely had no other choice. The toilet doesn’t even flush properly… it’s disgusting! At night, I could hear loud music from a stage performance outside. I specifically told the staff not to give me the last room, and yet that’s exactly what I got. On top of that, the air-conditioning compressor sounded like it was right next to my ear. How is anyone...

I booked without windows reception. Great, give me with windows 928, but aircond leaking waiting 40min no response, then go to reception they changed to 628, which is OK but the pillow to thin but the bed is ok .towel is thin for budget hotel is ok

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 😬

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

The location is great, have many restaurant and mini mart nearby. Quiet place, we have wonderful sleep.

Great location. If you need the hotel that you can walk to many landmarks this is the great choice

I had a great stay at this hotel. The location is very convenient—close to public transportation, restaurants, and major attractions. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The price was reasonable for what was offered. Overall, I was very satisfied and would definitely stay here again in the future.

The location is superb! Walking distance can reach beryls chocolate mansion, cookiecrumbs and etc. 2 o clock direction from lobby got 24h mart, few eatery right Infront hotel. Most of the famous local delight also can reach by foot! The downside of the hotel just not sound proofing，light sleeper might need to request corner room. But highly recommend from us and will stay again next time!!!

I really enjoyed my stay here. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff were very friendly. I’d be happy to come back again.

The room has a fake window with outside is a wall which cannot tell the room has "city view" (see picture). The facility is old but clean. There is no table in the room which it is quite not convenience for me to browse on my computer. The layout of the room is not reasonable as the toilet door is hidden on the back of the room which is not convenient to use. The service is good enough as per this...

Strategic location and close to everywhere. Many places selling food and restaurants.

Good place to stay. Just one minus, the pillow so small.

Surrounding by local food pub nearby Komtar good night life too

Good service by the staff with greeting and smiles, very friendly too. The location is great with oharmaxy and food courts nearby. However, the cleaniless part is just normal in general. The right site of the bed has a loose metal spring, which comes out and scratches my feet until bleeding. The electric plug only available at main table site which it's broken too. So if you need to.charge your phone...

Location very convenient and ample parking space. Room space is big.

Had a pleasant family stay at Red Rock Hotel! Great location on Jalan Macalister, close to Penang’s famous hawker food. Our room was spacious and clean, though a bit dated. The pool was great for the kids, and the staff were friendly. Hotel could use some renovations, but for the price, it’s a good budget-friendly option in George Town.

“Great location with easy access to everywhere. I absolutely loved the pillows, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I’d definitely recommend this place to all my friends.”

Great hotel with good service. Has lots of food places nearby and some malls. Night markets are within walking distance too. Will be back again!

Jen Cafe : This staff team is excellent and professional. Even when the cafe was crowded, they were patient, always smiling, and worked hard to seat everyone. 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...

Good location with easy access to good food & shopping. Hotel is clean and staff are friendly and helpful. Will stay again for my next trip to Penang.

Great hotel. Clean and friendly service. Its within walking distance to alot of eateries as well. Enjoyed Penang!!!

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. 🫶🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Value for money (deal). Outside the old town, but only 10 minutes walking or you can rent city bikes from the street to the right if the Burma entrance. Very nice local dinner options right outside, and other entertainment, healthcare etc., but if you are in town for the old town feeling, this may not be first choice. Bad Wi-Fi, get your own sim with data. Great breakfast. Nice staff. Nice room, with...

We arrived at this 1926 Heritage Hotel and found our way around the arrival hall to get to the reception located at the side entrance to check in. Athough our room has been renewed but it still shows signs of a poorly restored job. The housekeeping staff should remove the beds to vacuum and mop the floor underneath them. The hotel certainly needs a decent refurbishment to bring it back to its heyday...

This one of a kind hotel is unique. The architecture is from the British Colonial. It's old but they are trying to keep it the way it was during it's hay days. They have done a marvelous job. The Monroe restaurant is small but they serve everything that you can imagine. As the saying goes, nice things come in small packages. Food there is of top notch. Try the Italian dish. The breakfast provided...

Cheap but the customer service is so awesome!! The vibe so warm. If the swimming pool can open from 7am -10pm, it will be the best

Environment verry Heritage & Style. Clean in overall. Swimming pool not to small but Ok for kids enjoy the pool. Easy Parking because can park near room.

The name explains that it is a heritage building n you will expect an old building. Wooden floor but comfortable. No astro & fridge for room 242. A bible in the drawer. Anyway it is worth it for us.

big room big toilet sofe bed comfort nice area no noise will come again

close to amenities surrounding , location is really prime, never thought a refurbished can be made to such a wonderful heritage ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️hotel!

Nice classic hotel with great location. Very quiet. The heritage style is the main attraction..

TV not working. Too small 16-19 inch Tv. Nice heritage villa house

Parking Provided . Everything okay

We had a pleasant stay for our 3 nights. The bed was reaaaaally comfy. The staff was friendly and the location is perfect. You can go anywhere from there. Thank you!

Overall okay. Near with queensbay mall. Toilet a bit dirty at wall and need to clean. Wifi sometimes okay, sometime slow.

Everything is good and if I had to comment on something then it’s definitely the toilet, it’s long rectangular concept and it’s quite squeezy.

Everything is good. Good place for overnight. Near to shopping mall. If u have big luggage, this place not suitable for u. No lift. U need to bring ur luggaga using a stair. But uncle at receptionist so friendly. Mattress also great..

Room is a bit small, but great for a short transit stay.

Good location. Restaurants nearby. Shopping mall.

Overall is good! Because it is a budget hotel, I don't have too many complaints.but the air conditioner in the room I stayed in was leaking, and the bed was right under the air conditioner. I reported it to the staff. The staff apologized and was very nice! I hope they will pay attention to this problem!

Staffs are friendly and welcoming. Good location near KOMTAR, Prangin Mall & 1st Avenue Mall. Has a Coway water filter near the Reception area, so hot drinking water is readily available. The hotel provides complimentary water bottles as well for the room. Water pressure of the shower is good. Toiletries such as shampoo, shower gel & shower cap is provided. Coffee and tea sachets are provided too....

Good location.easy access to main attraction places.

Hotel maintenance is very bad. But the charge is so high. The room environment is too hot even with 16 degrees of aircond at night. The photo shows everything so well and highly environment in the room, however when 1st step into the room, I totally regretted just trusting the photo blindly. The room is big but the aircond condition is not acceptable, total spoilt my trip because of this type of accommodations...

Wonderful stay. Housekeeping team prepared cute decorations for my stay. Thank you WOW Hotel Penang

Great and convient location to stay! Easy access to keys atractions around city.

Hotel is very central 2mins walk from Komtar main bus terminal and malls, heritage sites and Penang Famous Chendol Rooms are very modern and spacious in size so very comfortable and clean too Great value for money will come back again

Plenty of delicious food, reasonable prices n nice night lifestyles to go round the clock 👍

Service is not impressive. Front desk ask for depo (RM50) is understandable but they don’t prepare for change so they ask for RM100 (only take cash). Facilities is broken (shower) cannot hang so you have to hold the shower head when you wash. Cleanliness is the worst. There is a foul smell when you enter the hallway to your room. No parking provided even if you booked one. First come first serve, so...

The room was quite small Shower in bathroom partially malfunction Very limited parking, forced to illegally park at road side

This is amazing city to visit and stay at George town. Hotel, good atmosphere and vibes meet with people around places....if travel journey please booked roughly recommended

Nice budget hotel around Georgetown, worth the money. But if to compared to other budget hotel around/near to this area, I would reccomend Tune Hotel Georgetown (rate might be few ringgit more than this hotel, but the accomodations is ???)

Good value for money. Staff polite and helpful.Clean toilets. Central location.

new renovated in Oct'2024 . all is new bed. clean , comfortable . nice staff with sharing the facilities and near by to visit . Moustachz Hauze Cafe new open at end of Jan'25 . do serve the nice breakfast with home-made sourdough bread . Hand roasted coffee bean. even though the also do the home-brew kombucha with nice flavoured to choose . experience chef do serve the western food , fusion local...

Great hotel in central China Town location in George Town. Room was slightly smaller than expected and smelt of damp when we first arrived, but with AC and extractor fan on it went away quickly. Mezzanine bed was comfy, hot shower and lots of spaces for bags under bed! Fairly quiet hotel with not many comings and goings. Free washing machine to use on site. Cafe downstairs also.

I have a great experience by staying here. The room is so comfortable and suitable for anyone who search for budget hotel. The staff also very nice and helpful to me. They provide enough info for me to explore other place near my stay. Will visit this hotel again soon :)

A hotel with a great concept with cafe at the ground floor, bar at the first floor and also not many hotels are pet friendly. However the bar doesn’t really open anymore. I opted this because of the pet friendly availability. it’s sad to see a great concept dies off because of the lack of effort in up keeping. Hopefully the owner is able to revive the place as it is really run down and I don’t think...

The room is okay but it is the only pet friendly hotels which allows you to bring your pets without extra charges. And the location of the hotel is at the town which is very convenient for you to go anywhere. There are lots of nice cafe nearby and there is the food street as well as bars in walking distance at night. The male staff is very friendly and helpful when you ask for something.

Basic but Super clean & comfy room! Vy efficient & friendly staff! You can make different pillow choices & pick yr own shampoo/soaps. Own carpark. Great location. High recommended esp for its price!

Had a comfortable stay over here. The staffs were very welcoming. Overall, very clean and a rly nice budget hotel????

Budget hotel so don't expect too much. Small and comfortable room. The aircond seriously need to upgrade because the air sometimes hot sometimes warm (set to cold not auto). The room walls are too thin so you can hear voices from other rooms next to you. I was having hard time to sleep because of voices from the other room. Overall it's okay for budget hotel. Parking provided so yeah 3 stars.

Small, cozy hotel. If u just want a bed and a room , this is the place. Clean room. Friendly staffs. Reasonable rate

Staff is incredibly friendly and helpful; very service oriented. (5 stars!) Room was basic but comfortable. Most rooms don't have windows (though it's not advertised when booking online.) Fairly convenient to food; tourist attractions are about a 25 min walk. Good wifi. Only real complaint: shower curtain full of mildew. Notified manager at our departure.

Was very surprised by the friendliness of Mr Liau & Mr Ng at the front desk. Room was very comfortable (non-smoking), wifi available,free shampoo,free car wash service,bicycle available for rent.nice!

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...

Pretty old but bang for your bucks. The best hotel I've stayed in Penang so far. 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 room is not very good, the interior is very poor

Thank you AG Hotel, as traveller from non-malaysian, i have fulfilled the expectation with any facilities. Just one suggestion for the owner is adding more television channel 💕 Salam hangat, 🇮🇩

The rooms were clean and nice. You get the most from what you paid for with this budget hotel. The staff, especially Ms. Memee, were so accommodating and helpful. The location is excellent since it’s a short ride away from RECSAM, or Georgetown, or Queensbay, or even from the airport. Will definitely recommend this to tourists especially those who are budget-conscious but still want to experience great...

the price is just awesome, I have nothing to complain with this price.

There are cockroaches in the room, the room is not cleaned every day and the whole time I was here, the room was not cleaned.... there is no air freshener in the room and the condition of the electric cup and thermos is not very clean... tissues are also not provided.... overall not at all satisfying

Decent for an overnight stay. Great if you want someplace in between Bayan Lepas and Georgetown. This place is rather old but still well maintained.
