Le Dream Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I like the central location..very convinient. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Third time there."

The Granite Luxury Hotel Penang

8/10 Good

"Considering the cost of the room, there should be more available like a restaurant with at least breakfast service."

The Prestige Hotel Penang

10/10 Excellent

"Well maintained. My 3rd time staying in Prestige hotel since opening. Clean and perfect size room for couple with complete amenities. Friendly and helpful front desk staff. Good breakfast with Malaysian flavours. Highly recommended"

Muntri Mews

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful place, attentive staff. The bed is comfortable. The location is central. The decorations and the ambience made the trip extra special!"

Cheong Fatt Tze - The Blue Mansion

10/10 Excellent

"Very helpful staff, especially Aaron and Jalal!"

Mclane Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Well maintained hotel at the heart of GeorgeTown. Excellent location for connectivity to the mainland, via the ferries’ jetty, very close to historical sites (eg the Khoo Kongsi), local eateries and to the lively night scene. Staff are friendly and helpful (special shout out to Nick and Eline). The night staff during my stay could smile more or just offer a warm greeting. Breakfast menu is fair and could be improved with more items l(eg coffee in a pot) plus tastier cereal and sausages. Room amenities are reasonably complete only ergonomics could be slightly improved (eg more flat space to put stuff, localised electrical plug for the kettle and a movable shower head to prevent water splashing onto the wooden door. However I am very pleased there is an in-room safety box and an air conditioner that could be turned off completely when the room gets too cold. The price is reasonable for a boutique hotel, Overall I enjoyed my stay here and would strongly recommend the hotel to local and international guests."

Sunway Hotel Georgetown Penang

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel rooms are big. Although it's not in the latest decorations, the room and bathroom are clean and functional, bed was comfortable with clean linen, meets our needs. The location is excellent. The New Land hawker stalls are literally on the doorstep, we were able to take away the food and enjoy them in the comfort of the airconed hotel room. Many attractions in Georgetown are within walking distance. We will stay at Sunway if we visit Penang again."
