Ascott Gurney Penang

Staying at Ascott Gurney Penang was an absolutely excellent experience. The room was spacious and well-designed, with smart layout that separated sleeping and living areas—perfect for comfort and privacy. Housekeeping was outstanding; every day, the room was thoroughly cleaned and refreshed with attention to detail, from fresh linens to spotless bathrooms. The location is quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk from great dining options and easy access to public transport. Some rooms even offer lovely sea views—waking up to that view in the morning made the whole trip feel special. I especially want to thank Angel One from the front desk team—her warm hospitality and professionalism made a big difference. The entire staff were attentive and helpful throughout my stay. It’s clear this property values guest satisfaction, and I’ll definitely be returning.

The George Penang by The Crest Collection

Staying at The George Penang was an absolute delight. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from some of George Town’s most popular eateries, and everything is easily accessible on foot or by public transit. I booked a triple room, and while the room faces the street—which means traffic noise and early morning prayer announcements can be loud—I’d still highly recommend it. The pros far outweigh the minor cons. The tap water is safe to drink straight from the faucet, which is rare and impressive. The bathroom is spacious with a lovely bathtub, and the minibar even came with two complimentary drinks—such a nice touch! The staff, including the Chinese-speaking team, were friendly, helpful, and made me feel right at home. Even though there’s some street noise, it’s a small price to pay for such a well-located, stylish, and thoughtfully designed stay. A truly memorable experience—definitely worth returning.

Bahari Parade Hotel Managed By The Ascott Limited 

The Bahari Parade Hotel is an absolute gem with incredible value for money. While there aren’t many reviews online, I can confidently say: book it! The room was clean, spacious, and well-appointed. Located just a short walk from a fantastic dim sum spot, you’ll enjoy both great food and easy access to nearby attractions. The hotel advised calling ahead one day before check-in, but my calls went unanswered—don’t worry, just head straight to the front desk and staff are very helpful in person. One small downside was the difficulty reaching guest services beforehand, but that didn’t affect the overall experience. With excellent location, comfort, and service on-site, this place earns a solid 9/10. Highly recommended!

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.

Eastern & Oriental Hotel

I first discovered this gem on Xiaohongshu and ended up booking through the platform for a 3-night stay—so glad I did! The Heritage Wing Suite offered incredible perks: three restaurants—Palm Court (Heritage Wing), Planters Lounge, and Sarkies—perfectly matched to my breakfast needs over three days. I also enjoyed unlimited access to both the Victory Wing and Heritage Wing infinity pools. Afternoon tea was complimentary from 12–6 PM, followed by cocktail hour from 6–7 PM—such a lovely touch. The in-room mini-fridge was fully stocked with 10 free drinks daily, plus one bottle of wine. Housekeeping came twice daily—morning and afternoon—for a consistently clean space. The only minor issue was a slight musty smell upon arrival, but it disappeared within a few days. With so many stunning photo spots—definitely more than 20—I couldn’t stop taking pictures. This hotel is a true visual delight and an absolute highlight of my trip.

Penang Marriott Hotel

Absolutely exceeded my expectations! As a brand-new property, the hotel’s overall quality and room amenities are top-notch. The two-bedroom suite was perfect for our family trip—spacious, clean, and thoughtfully designed. We were greeted with a welcome gift and even a handwritten note, which added such a personal touch. Yes, the immediate sea view is currently blocked by construction, but getting to nearby attractions is super convenient via taxi—especially Ferringhi Bay, where we cut travel time in half. If you're planning multiple nights in Penang, I’d strongly recommend splitting your stay between here and George Town. This place offers better value, comfort, and a more relaxed vibe than the city center, making it an ideal home base for exploring the island.
