The hotel's location is excellent, and it's very clean. The rooftop pool is spotless, and the large windows in the rooms offer a great view. The breakfast is abundant, and the service is excellent. Definitely recommend staying here. I'll choose this hotel again when I visit Penang.

Overall, I'm satisfied, but of course, there were a few things that weren't perfect, haha. Check-in was good and fast, even though there were a lot of people. There was complimentary juice while waiting to check-in. The swimming pool is great and big, with slides for kids too. The kids' room is amazing, with a ball pit, PS5 games, slides, and more! The kids' room is definitely the best 👍🏻 Breakfast was a bit disappointing because the table I got was hot. Didn't feel the air conditioning at all. The room was great, sea view, and clean. Parking was a bit difficult. It's first-come, first-served, or you'll have to valet park if you want secure parking. The staff were very friendly. Excellent.

Definitely like the bath tub! And also the sauna and jacuzzi, it was separate by gender and even have a locker room to store your belongings. Was convenient go to the gurney bay, can just cross the traffic line to walk and enjoy the chill breeze. Around there a lot of choice for food and places to be chill around. Will choose this hotel for the next visit

I want to give a special shout-out to Shane, the Guest Relations Manager. He was incredibly hospitable and went above and beyond to accommodate our small requests. On the day we checked in, the hotel's air conditioning system wasn't quite up to par for the higher floors, but the hotel immediately addressed the issue and Shane quickly arranged a new room for us. While it might sound like I'm exaggerating, I genuinely experienced the excellent service from Marriott and Shane – I'm very satisfied! I forgot to take photos right away, so I'll express my feelings with the few I have. 😎

Great location with plenty of good restaurants nearby, perfect for a city walk through the old town. The decor is fantastic and all the facilities are in excellent condition – definitely a place to consider. Taxis are also readily available right outside the entrance.

Layout is nice and comfortable. The kids love it. I like the drawers provided under the beds. Initially I was worried about lack of a cabinet for clothes. Water dispenser is very well used by us. Plenty of power sockets near the bed. Swimming pool had a great view. Chlorine taste was crazy strong though. Kids thought the water was salty. Biggest gripe is that this place is too popular. 4 lifts serving the 30+ levels of patrons are not sufficient. During peak periods like meal, arrival or checkout timings, we waited more than 15mins to get into the lift. Overall very pleasant stay.

We've stayed in many 5 star hotels over the years all over the world but we were still very impressed with The Millen rooms and service! Extremely comfortable beds, service and responsiveness from front desk and housekeeping, beautiful room with the lovely tub that we used daily during our 4 day stay, turn down service with the lovely cookies and second round of room cleaning, ample amounts of water, nespresso pods and fluffy towels, robes and slippers. Everything was beautifully curated in the lobby, corridors rooms and even a very helpful guard stationed at the car park level. We enjoyed our stay thoroughly! The only thing that would have made our stay even better would have been an ev charger in the parking area. Luckily, there was one about 400m outside the hotel but not so convenient as we had to sit in the car to wait for charge rather than relaxing in our room. All in all, we'll definitely be back for another stay next round we're in Penang. Thank you to all the lovely hotel staff that made our stay so memorable!

My family and I recently enjoyed a stay at Angsana Teluk Bahang and found it to be the perfect choice for a relaxing staycation. Located on the quieter side of Penang, the resort is about 40–50 minutes from George Town, which may feel a little far from the city centre, but that's exactly what makes it special. If you're looking to escape the traffic, crowds, and bustle of town, Angsana offers a peaceful beachfront retreat with plenty of space to unwind. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with beautiful sea views, and the beach is not crowded at all. The infinity pool overlooking the sea was a favourite spot for our family, especially in the evenings when the sunset painted the sky over the Straits of Malacca. The staff were consistently friendly and attentive, helping to make the stay smooth and enjoyable from check-in to departure. Although the resort feels secluded, it's still only a short drive from Batu Ferringhi if you want to explore local food, night markets, or nearby attractions. For us, however, the best part was simply slowing down and enjoying the calm surroundings. Overall, Angsana Teluk Bahang is an excellent option for families seeking a relaxing beachfront staycation. While it is some distance from the city, the peaceful atmosphere, beautiful sea views, and resort facilities make it well worth the trip, will definitely come again!

KKepulifunichahanyuThis was my first solo trip abroad, and I chose Penang, a city known for its overseas Chinese community and abundant durians. About 70% of the population here is Chinese, mostly originating from Chaoshan and Fujian, which gives it a strong Southern Min and Chaoshan vibe, much like Thailand in the movie 'The Letter to A-ma'. The Eastern & Oriental Hotel (E&O) in Penang, along with Singapore's Raffles and Angkor's Raffles, is considered one of the world's three grand heritage hotels. Established in 1885, it has hosted many celebrities, so it was a must-experience for me. The hotel is divided into two parts: the Heritage Wing, which is the original older building, and the Victory Annexe, a high-rise built just over a decade ago. To experience the authentic charm, choose the Heritage Wing. If you prefer better sea views and relatively newer facilities, the Victory Annexe might be a better option. However, the hotel's most iconic pool is exclusively accessible to guests staying in the Heritage Wing. When I was researching the hotel, I read some rumors about the Heritage Wing being a bit spooky. Perhaps it's due to its age; such tales are not uncommon in old hotels. But objectively, the Heritage Wing maintains its overall character beautifully. From the preserved first elevator in Malaysia located in the lobby to the various artworks displayed in the corridors, and even the doormen in old colonial-era uniforms, everything conveys the ambiance of the South Seas from a century ago. Three positives: First, the E&O is probably the closest hotel to the sea in Penang. Taking a walk by the ocean in the evening or early morning sounds wonderful, even if Penang's sea isn't particularly spectacular. Second, guests in the Heritage Wing receive a complimentary bottle of red wine, and all snacks and treats in the room are free. Additionally, the Char Kway Teow at Palm Court for breakfast in the Heritage Wing is incredibly flavorful – I think it's even better than many so-called Michelin-starred dishes. Third, sitting by the window in the morning, watching the sunrise and the coast, was quite therapeutic. As for negatives, overall, the hotel's service felt a bit indifferent. Compared to other places in Southeast Asia, there was a certain aloofness. This might, of course, be a remnant of its early British hotel traditions.

YyuleimorrisPros: Although the decor is a bit dated, the overall service and facilities are still up to par. The rooms in RaSa Wing are generally spacious, with a separate walk-in closet, and a large living room. The TV on the desk can be pulled out and rotated. There are also daily welcome snacks (dried fruits). For breakfast, you can choose the mainstream buffet at Garden Wing, or for a more unique experience, order à la carte at the RaSa restaurant on the second floor – their Hokkien Mee and Curry Mee are very authentic! The overall service level is also on point; you can take a shuttle from the concierge at the entrance to Golden Sands' swimming pool, and the staff are very friendly and greet you warmly. The overall facilities and service meet Shangri-La standards. Cons: 1. The parent-child facilities are not extensive enough, not as good as many domestic hotels: Basically, only the pool is available for play. Even at Golden Sands' water park, there's only one small slide, and there's always a queue, so it's not particularly impressive. There is a kids' club, but it requires an extra fee (though not expensive). Other parent-child activities are limited and not available daily, and it feels like we didn't receive schedule notifications on the RaSa Wing side. The parent-child experience is a minus. 2. The Concierge informed me that RaSa Wing guests could order free soft drinks at the pool bar (including Golden Sands), but when I actually went to Golden Sands, I was told that RaSa Wing guests couldn't enjoy this benefit there. 3. The food options provided during Happy Hour are more Western-oriented, with very few Chinese dishes, and the taste is mediocre. It's fine to try it once on the first day, but don't have high expectations. 4. The beach has been eroded, which is a major drawback for a beachfront hotel to not have a beach. Suggestions: You can walk to Batu Ferringhi beach; taking a taxi might get stuck in traffic. I don't recommend the durian stall at the RaSa Wing hotel entrance; instead, go to the durian stall at the Golden Sands entrance (only available at night), the quality is much better!

GGuest UserI arrived at the hotel an hour early, and even though check-in was officially at 3 PM, I was able to get into my room smoothly at 1 PM. The front desk staff were incredibly thoughtful and efficient – definitely a thumbs up! Overall, my stay was great. Just a small suggestion: there were some long hairs left on the bath towels in the room, so I hope housekeeping can pay more attention to detail cleaning in the future. I'll still choose to stay here again. I also tried the massage service at the hotel, which was pretty good.

AAnonymous UserThe hotel's location is excellent. There's a mall right downstairs, making shopping and dining super convenient. It's also close to other tourist attractions, and getting a taxi is quick and easy! We even ran into Chinese celebrity Huang Xiaoming and others promoting a movie at Gurney Plaza during our stay.

GGuest UserI didn't pay close enough attention to the details when I booked, but for two of us traveling, the Stuart Suite was absolutely massive, spread over two floors, with an atrium and a plunge pool. It could easily sleep a family of four, making it fantastic value for money. The hotel has a charming, antique feel with a lot of character. The front desk staff were very welcoming, and the breakfast was quite unique. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking to experience a Nanyang-style stay!
