Plenty of gorgeous historic boutique hotels in Georgetown but this one makes an enormous effort on service and, while not without some bumps, it shows. A few room quirks: surprisingly only 2 or 3 TV stations, with no English news. Yes, you are not here to watch TV but... AC is rather loud. The hotel is above Il Bacaro Italian restaurant--a very good place. Breakfast there (Il Bacaro, complimentary with hotel stay) offers many options, fresh and homemade.

You get what you expect from Marriott. At least I did. I was there for work hence it worked for me. Would I go back for leisure but I may also look at other options which is in the neighborhood for the price range. That said they delivered what a Marriott is expected to deliver.

My boyfriend and I stayed at The Prestige for 4 nights 5 days. The check in went fast and smooth and the staff were super friendly. We had a free welcome drink voucher. The room was spotless and the decor looked exactly like the pictures on the wensite. We immediately felt like we were staying in luxury.
The only improvement area for the room is that there was no bin in the toilet which is necessary for women to have. Also there werent enough sanitary bags in the room. The minibar options were...

This hotel was a surprise on so many levels. Loved the people who worked there and the vibe. The rooms were spectacular .... Huge space, 2 bathrooms, outdoor space, lots of thought given to detail. The restaurant was extraordinary. Breakfast was a la carte and delicious. Coffee was excellent. Great attention to detail. We didn't want to leave.

Edison gives you a warm welcoming experience at their heritage home- high attention to detail of service from the team, tastefully designed clean rooms, open concept pantry with access to coffee/drinks/snacks through the day.
It's fitted with modern finishing with a hint of Peranakan architecture. But the most memorable, is not about the architecture because you can find that plentiful around George Town. It is the people that makes the difference, it felt that we were staying with friends-...

The toilet seat was in need of repair, it was out of alighment so was not comfortable.
The wash basin area is too small. Water get splashed onto the sides.
Towels given were frayed at the edges

Checked in was very smooth, "Yaya" from the checked in counter was very helpful and she even call the room to check is everything ok. Breakfast spread was superb. The only setback was the pillow for my 4 nights stay, to soft, maybe hotel can invest for a better pillow, a bit firm should be nice.

Impressed with the size of the room, staff were informative and helpful, drinking water is refillable at anytime. The overall feel was excellent. Walking distance to street arts and other heritage sites.
