Hotels With Pools in Penang, Malaysia

The location is convenient for visiting morning markets, night markets, and durian stalls. It's a bit far to walk into George Town, so taking a taxi is the best option. The bedding and towels are clean and comfortable. The renovation smell varies among the three rooms, it's a matter of luck. The room my parents stayed in had a strong, eye-stinging smell when they first entered, but it became less noticeable after ventilation and air conditioning. The sink in the hallway had severe backflow and a terrible smell, so we basically didn't use it. We kept the stopper in and let it soak to block the odor. They don't clean the room unless you specifically ask the front desk. A deposit is required, and since we didn't have Malaysian Ringgit, we paid in RMB. Check-out was very slow, as they needed to inspect the room. When we checked out early in the morning, we were the only ones, and it took half an hour to complete the whole process for three rooms. In Malaysia, people typically go barefoot indoors, so no slippers are provided. If you don't like that, you'll need to bring your own.

This hotel boasts an excellent location right in the heart of George Town. It's directly across from the bus terminal and offers easy walking access to the Seven Streets Market (Chew Jetty), Kimberley Street Night Market, and the Street Art area. The front desk staff are warm and welcoming, the rooms are spacious and clean, and the facilities are comprehensive. It's definitely our top choice for accommodation when visiting Penang and comes highly recommended.

View from the apartment was amazing and just need to look through the window and you see the blue sky and ocean. Just that the apartment they gave us has 3 rooms and if you book 2 rooms they will locked up the one of the room. The issue is that when we checked in they just let the 3rd room open and we thought we could used it until the security guard came and knock the door and said he has to lock up one of the rooms.

Conveniently located in a bustling area, the entire building is made up of apartments. Some are still undergoing renovations. When we visited, the occupancy wasn't high, so elevator wait times were short and they weren't crowded. The Wi-Fi was out for the two days we were there. Not sure if it's been fixed since then.

This hotel is just opened recently so that every equipment was brand new but the room smelled a little bit chemical because it seemed the room has just been started to provide for staying. The location is a little remote from the center of the George Town but the area is very convenient with small glossary stores, cafes, bakeries and etc. Our family enjoyed walking through Armenian estreet for having dinner. It was very interested to see all of the historical shops and buildings. The swimming pool in this hotel is compact with a few benches. Suggested to avoid crowded time zone. The town view from the pool is astonishing both daytime and nighttime that you must try. Overall we had a very good time in George Town and it was a really nice hotel.Thank you.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable, with all the amenities I needed. The staff were friendly, professional, and always willing to help, which really made the experience pleasant.

Although the hotel doesn't look new or modern, the interior is mostly wooden and painting. The hotel room was very clean especially the toilet. The breakfast buffet is delicious with a variety of choices.

I did not book room with breakfast but decided to hv it the next morning. Upon paying I ask for receipt but was told no receipt will be issued. Wonders why? Restaurant staff hv language barriers. Either they dont speak or understand which is seriously annoying when you ask for something and they think you are talking in a foreign language when it’s just simple English. Checking in out is way too long, only one staff manning the reception.

We stayed in G Hotel Kelawai for 5 nights. The hotel is between two shopping malls - Gurney Plaza and Gurney Paragon. Excellent location. Another hotel nearby (about 400m) is G Hotel Gurney. Both the hotels' guests are given the option to use each other's facilities and guests are given the flexibility to have their breakfast at either hotel without any advanced notice. By the way, G Hotel Gurney is the older hotel and is directly connected to Gurney Plaza, whereas G Hotel Kelawai is less crowded and quieter, which we liked. The breakfast variety is acceptable for guests who are on a short stay. Out of curiosity, we wanted to try out the breakfast at G Hotel Gurney but were prevented from doing so because of the heavy rain. Upon request, hotel guests can commute between the two by the hotels' buggy. The 25-m swimming pool and gym in Kelawai were hardly used. Clean and well-maintained rooms.

I will definitely repeat my stay, as it provides a wonderful combination of fun and happiness for families.
