4.4/5558 Reviews
The hospitality so extraordinary. The staffs were very friendly and polite. Behaved very professionally too. Rooms were clean and comfortable as well. Loved everything about the place. As a birthday gift , they provided a slice of cheesecake too. Not to forget the wine as compensation .❤️❤️✨
Noordin Mews
4.7/546 Reviews
The front desk service of the hotel is very good. It will speak Mandarin and Cantonese. It will tell you where the main push is in Penang. In the evening, you will put sugar on the bed. The parking space is on a first-come, first-served basis. You can buy a parking ticket. The afternoon tea is very good. Very good, a lot of food nearby
THE CENTURY BOUTIQUE HOTEL (George Town)
4.3/525 Reviews
First experience with capsule hotel bed and dormitory with 3 other lovely female travellers. Fortunately, it was an experience exceeding all expectations!! First WOW - look at all the cultural heritage, beautiful art, antique items and furniture, the Feng Shui Koi pond, water fountain, greenery! OMG- better than visiting a museum- you get to live and experience it!!! Second WOW- looking for street food? Walk around and you see stalls selling the local delish: SATAY, Lok Lok, Char Hor Fun and other stalls. Also, the handicraft stores with Batik and wooden sculptures! Other amenities : open swimming pool, 3 shower room next to it and hair dryer (tip: the water pressure and shower much more satisfying compared to bathtub or shower inside dorm room, and a game/ relax room filled with couch to wind down after a tiring day. and just Final WOW- the receptionist and staffs are helpful and well-informed! Guests were invited to join in the fun and you can see guests lounging in the open, relaxed and chatting with the staffs! Room for improvement: mosquitoes... can't seem to get rid of them ( so be prepared) and the places are considered clean... but not spotless. I hope this culturally rich building can be well maintained, and the places be properly upgraded even more as it succeeds as one of the most valuable hotel experience in Georgetown 🥰
Savv Hotel
4.6/5116 Reviews
I recently stayed at SAVV Hotel in March/April 2023. I have stayed in George Town a number of times over 10 years and this (relatively new) hotel is really working very hard to look after guests and now tops my list! Everything was fantastic - staff very friendly, outstandingly helpful and professional from reception, cleaning, to security and maintenance. Hotel is spotless and the small pool gorgeous to cool off in (cleaned regularly). Busy location but I liked this as a solo traveller and felt very safe - easy to catch a Grab car at hotel entrance. Special mention to Mae and Kathy who made my breakfast every day - thinking about that great homemade jackfruit jam! Thanks everyone for making my stay so enjoyable. See you next year!

Vouk Hotel Suites, Penang
3.9/5391 Reviews
First time staying at VOUK hotel. It’s definitely not the most luxurious hotel, but for the price point, it’s worth a stay. Pros: Location is perfect, with lots of local delights within the vicinity (2-3km away). Receptionist and all other hotel staffs are mostly friendly, except they are not very fluent in English and communication may be a little difficult. Cons: Amenities are not very complete, and cleanliness can be improved. The cups were not washed and carpeted floor was not vacuumed. P.S. I don’t recommend the oden from the lounge. We waited for 45 minutes even though we were the only customer in the lounge. The noodles were not cooked and the Tom Yum gravy was purely made of oil.
St. Giles Wembley Penang
4.3/5808 Reviews
The location is great, walking distance to nearby mall & eateries. Room was spacious & decorated in luxurious style. Toilet was clean & equipped with bath tub which was a plus point for us. Love the breakfast spread that consisted of various nice food choices & the waitresses was very helpful especially to elderly. The only drawback was noise made by nearby hotel/ karaoke area at night. Overall, its worth the money i've paid.
