Visited three hotels during my trip to Penang, and Seven Terraces stands out as the absolute best. It's not just stylish with a unique design aesthetic—it's also incredibly quiet, making it perfect for a peaceful stay. The on-site restaurant is Michelin-rated, and the food was exceptional—definitely worth a special visit. I also want to thank the platform's customer service for helping me secure the reservation at the Michelin restaurant and arranging a late check-out until 1 PM. Their support made a big difference. Overall, this hotel offers outstanding value and a memorable experience—I'd definitely come back.

Staying at Tien Terrace was an absolute delight! The hotel is beautifully designed with a modern, aesthetic vibe that really stands out in George Town. From the moment I arrived, the staff were warm and attentive, making me feel right at home. The room was spacious, clean, and flooded with natural light—perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the city. I especially loved the rooftop terrace; it’s a peaceful retreat with stunning views of the city skyline, ideal for unwinding with a drink in hand. The location is fantastic—walking distance to great cafes, local markets, and cultural spots. Everything about this stay felt thoughtfully curated, and the 10/10 rating truly reflects the exceptional experience. I’ll definitely be back.

Staying at Golden View Serviced Apartments in George Town was an absolute delight. The room was spacious and immaculately clean—no corner left untouched. What stood out the most was having a microwave in the unit, which made meal prep so convenient, especially for late-night snacks or reheating food while traveling with kids. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the city center and close to public transport, making it easy to explore local attractions. The staff were friendly and helpful, and everything was set up perfectly upon arrival. It’s rare to find such comfort, cleanliness, and practicality at this price point. I’ll definitely be returning next time I’m in Penang.

My stay at Noble Villa Apartment in George Town, Malaysia, was extremely disappointing. The pool water was visibly dirty with debris floating around—definitely not safe or inviting. Noise from other guests was constant throughout the night, making it nearly impossible to get a good rest. I also noticed the tap water was discolored and had a strange taste, which turned out to be due to the incoming water filter never being replaced in years—a serious hygiene concern. To make matters worse, garbage piled up in the lobby area, creating a strong unpleasant odor that made the entrance feel unpleasant and unclean. Despite its convenient location near public transit, the lack of basic maintenance and poor management ruined the entire experience. I wouldn't recommend this property to anyone looking for a clean, quiet, and comfortable stay.

Last-minute booking and I couldn't be happier with the deal—great price, clean room, and it's definitely one of my top choices when visiting Penang. The location is perfect: right by the beach, with peaceful views and a relaxing atmosphere. Easy access to downtown via public transit, and there are plenty of local eateries nearby. It’s not just convenient—it’s an unbeatable value for the quality. I’ll definitely come back again.

Staying at Red Rock Hotel in Penang was an absolute delight. The room was spotless and well-maintained, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. The pool area is fantastic, perfect for relaxing or letting the kids enjoy themselves—my daughter had a blast! We loved how central the location is; major attractions are just a short walk or quick ride away. Plus, there are countless great dining options nearby—local flavors, street food, and cozy cafes all within easy reach. It’s the kind of place where you can easily spend days exploring without ever feeling far from everything. Highly recommend this gem—it’s truly one of the best stays in George Town.

This was my first trip to Malaysia, and after reading positive reviews online about this globally recognized chain hotel, I decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did— the room was surprisingly spacious with excellent air conditioning that kept the space comfortably cool, perfect for those who tend to get chilly. The only minor issue was spotting a few ants appearing unexpectedly on the table and sink counter—no idea where they came from, but it’s not uncommon in tropical areas. Despite that, the overall experience was fantastic. The location is convenient, close to public transit, and the value for money is unbeatable. I’d definitely stay here again if I return to Penang.

This was hands down my most satisfying trip ever! I highly recommend it for travelers on a budget who still want a comfortable and charming stay. The property is actually a beautifully restored terrace house, impeccably clean from top to bottom—every corner felt fresh and well-maintained. The interior design strikes the perfect balance between modern style and cozy warmth, making it feel like a home away from home. Breakfast was simple but delicious—just bread and jam, which worked perfectly for me and my boyfriend, since we usually wake up around lunchtime and needed something quick before heading out. It’s also incredibly close to major tourist spots—just a short drive away, so exploring was super convenient. The only hiccup? Our toilet clogged on the second night. But the staff responded instantly via WhatsApp, arranged a room change with zero hassle, and made sure we were comfortable throughout. Their quick, friendly support turned a potential problem into a positive experience. Overall, this place exceeded expectations in every way—great value, warm hospitality, and a fantastic location. I’ll definitely be back and would recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic, stress-free stay.

The room was spacious, immaculately clean, and had a cozy, modern vibe. The staff went above and beyond with their kindness and helpfulness—always smiling, ready to assist with recommendations or logistics. It felt like staying in a home away from home. If you're visiting George Town, this is definitely a top pick. We’ll be back!

Staying at Rangoon Residences + was an absolutely fantastic experience. The room was spacious and immaculately clean—walking barefoot felt like stepping on a cloud, with zero dust or mess in sight.

The staff went above and beyond with their hospitality—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. Plus, getting around town by taxi was incredibly convenient, making exploring George Town a breeze. I stayed for three nights and didn’t want to leave!

This trip to Penang lasted five nights—three of them were spent in a city-center hotel, which was great for accessing all the local attractions. For the final two nights, I stayed at Corner Club Penang, and honestly, it completely changed my perception of George Town.

Overall, a fantastic stay with excellent value for money—I’d definitely come back.
