The Bayview Beach Resort
Staying here was a fantastic experience overall! The location is perfect—just a 2-minute walk from Dataran Beach, right by the seaside. Waking up to the sound of waves and seeing the ocean view from the balcony was absolutely peaceful and relaxing. The resort has a nice, clean pool and plenty of family-friendly activities, making it ideal for a beach getaway with kids or friends. Breakfast was a highlight—great variety with both local and international options, so there was something for everyone. The only minor downside? The air conditioning can’t be fully turned off, so the room gets quite chilly, especially if you’re used to warmer weather like me. It might work better for guests who don’t mind cooler rooms, but I had to bring an extra blanket. Still, the pros far outweigh the cons. Super convenient, beautifully situated, and great value for money—definitely a top pick for a relaxed coastal escape.
Bayview Hotel Georgetown Penang
The service at the front desk was excellent, especially from Mr. Sri—friendly, efficient, and genuinely welcoming. The hotel’s location is fantastic; Chulia Street, where most of the local pubs and street food spots are, is just a short walk away. It’s a great base for exploring the vibrant night scene in George Town. One small note: the parking entrance can be tricky to spot—it’s tucked under a shop house pillar with a large 'Honda' sign on the side wall, so keep an eye out. I highly recommend walking over to Red Garden Food Court. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is lively, and there’s often live music or performances going on—perfect for a relaxed evening out. Overall, this stay was top-notch, and the little details like the helpful staff and easy access to local gems really make it stand out.

Macallum Central Hotel Managed By The Ascott Limited
Staying at Macallum Central Hotel was a great experience overall. The room was spacious and located right on the street, making it super convenient for getting around. After taking the stairs to the second floor, we found a large open-plan layout with a living area and kitchen—perfect for cooking meals and relaxing. The cleanliness was satisfactory with no major concerns, and the neighborhood was quiet yet well-connected to the city center. The only minor issue was during check-in when the door remained locked, requiring us to call staff to open it—a small inconvenience that could be improved. Despite that, the hotel offers excellent value, especially for guests who appreciate extra space and independence. I’d definitely recommend this place for both short stays and longer visits.
