Top Chinatown Hotel Reviews

Shangri-La Rasa Sayang, Penang

10/10 Excellent

"I have stayed at the Shangri-la Pinang on 8 occasions over12 years. I go back because it’s excellent"

Eastern And Oriental Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The E&O is Georgetown's premier hotel. It offers travellers an elegant experience from a bygone era of travel. The suite in the victory annex was gorgeous and opened onto an ocean view with beautiful breezes. The breakfast and food were fantastic. The heritage pool is warmer and worth the walk into the older building. The only complaint concerns the mini fridge in the room, which was burned out and kept what would have been lovely cold drinks at a not-so-cold 36C. I reported the matter, and the electrician attended. There was the obligatory shrugging of the shoulders and the very nicely mumbled 'so sorry, no spare fridge' excuse given. Still, it is Malaysia, and you have to expect that. The place kind of works, but in a duct tape and held together with rope kind of way. This was consistent with the electrical wiring in the room, where I had to flick two or three switches to get the bathroom light over the bathroom mirror working. All part of the charm to be honest, as they say in Latin America, mañana (tomorrow). If you want a Singapore exprience, where everything works perfectly, then stay on the airplane for another 90 minutes down to Changi Airport at the other end of the Malacca Straits. I have to complement the General Manager Alison Fraser and her staff, they provide a great experience. I commend you to the E&O and would return without hesitation."

Shangri-La Golden Sands, Penang

10/10 Excellent

"Our welcome, check in, room and staff were excellent. The hotels pools, Adventure Zone and buffet breakfast was amazing. The outer hallways were a little worn down. The hallway on the 4th floor smelled like vomit or rotten milk was spilled on the carpet. The staff worked tirelessly to clean it up but the smell was still there. Towards the end of the trip water was leaking from the ceiling and a bucket was put on the ground in the hallway. It just needs some updating. However our room was fine. Nice cold air conditioning and clean. Wonderful ocean view balcony. Despite the small things I'd definitely stay here again!"
