Hotels in Georgetown

“Right in the heart of Georgetown..Perfect!” Value for money and the staffs were all very friendly and helpful. We stayed here for 2 nights wanting to roam about the city centre and then went up to Batu Feringgi to stay at Rasa Sayang for the remaining 2 nights just to relax and chill. I must say that after experiencing both hotels, Cititel wins hands down in terms of staff friendliness and helpfulness...

We had some issues with due to our local travel agent and in search of hotel we came here, though it was full on booking and Tripcom. They semi sustainable and do great job. They offer orange juice on check in, awesome. Bed mattress and pillows are excellent. We had no breakfast

I stayed seven nights at Cititel Hotel Penang in a Deluxe Double Room. Central location, clean rooms, comfortable bed, pillow menu, good desk chair, and helpful housekeeping. Sustainability efforts like water refill stations on each floor are a big plus. While the hotel markets itself as “Business Friendly,” the experience feels more functional than fully embodied. Small details – such as writing...

Good location. Easy access to bus and CAT. Walking distance to local market and local eating food streets. Hotel staff attitude is super friendly and courteous. Special thanks to front office staff Susanna, Nazifa, Fakhrul and Evelyn from the F&B. All of you had made our stay at citadel Hotel so comfortable and enjoyable. Dear Susanna, you go the extra mile beyond your scope of work. Good service...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Amazing Stay! Hospitality at this hotel was truly superb! From the check-in process, I was already amazed by how friendly and welcoming the staff were. The room was spotless, nothing to complain about at all. I even received complimentary drinks and desserts delivered right to my room, which was such a nice surprise. The next morning during breakfast, once again the staff were incredibly...

First time staying here. Room is spacious. Food is tasty and variety.. Great location.. very near to the many attractive places. Recommended👍

Very accomodating hotel stay. The nutmeg drink service daily at lobby is delicious.

Hotel location is excellent. Use the side road of carpark for an easy walk to Cecil Street Food Court. If you walk straight across the traffic light to Komtar, you can ride the free CAT bus (15 minute frequency). Or else take GRAB. Easy walk to 1st Avenue Mall that is connected to Prangin Mall (2nd storey). The hotel is well maintained & quiet facing as requested for our 4 night stay. It would be...

Stayed two nights with parents. Both rooms were fairly maintained, “fairly” in the sense that furnitures couldn’t close properly, stains, wear and tear visible, and old televisions with blurry displays. However, service was top notch and location was unbeatable. I hope some upgrades can be done, especially on par with the price that we paid for it. Overall I’d come back to stay again, if I see...

We were upgraded to premium lounge, which includes breakfast, afternoon tea and evening cocktails. It's a great gesture for me as I am going through chemo therapy, the hygiene issue is top priority for me. I was truly appreciative to have a quiet and peaceful environment to have all my meals in the hotel. St. Giles has the most comfortable linens that you can find. I slept well and hope to return...

Excellent hotel with easy access to nearby malls and markets, friendly and helpful staff rendered to customers requests with full commitments and follow up. Will definitely return on my next visits

First time staying in St Giles Wembley Penang. Location in Georgetown is very convenient to visit various tourist attractions. Hotel room is spacious. Receptions, housekeeping and cafe staffs helpful and friendly. Will definitely book the hotel again next time travelling to Penang.

nice and clean room location is near to the Georgetown city

Nice hotel to stay in city area. Service is excellent. Has swimming pool, separate ladies and gentlemen jacuzzi, sauna, kids club,fitness. Room is big and clean. Air conditioning is good. Breakfast menu is good. Worth the price staying here.

The hotel and the rooms overall looks dated but clean. Staff service was at par with the usual 4/5* rating. Most of them are able to speak in English. Location is great with many local food available with ½ km and malls as well. This is the ideal location. For a holiday. The only strange thing was that housekeeping claimed they do not allow guests to borrow knives.

Ample of parking lots at multi storey parking at the back of hotel . Swimming pools for family. Sauna, jacuzzi (hot and cool) and steam room. (Separate for male and female) and children are not allowed to use these facilities. Two nicely painted tennis courts available. Cool kids room. Drink at the freezer is free to consume. Clean room with cool air con. TV a bit old and not many channels available...

Pretty old but bang for your bucks. The best hotel I've stayed in Penang so far. Great to bring elders and older adults to stay in. + Cleanliness is great + Room is huge + Heaps of Complementary drinks + Breakfast is good, worth the price. + Great location. Near gurney plaza. + Room has good sound proof - hotel is old, my shower had some issue. - room is a bit dark. - senior staffs were great but the...

Great hotel. Clean and excellent services from check in to checkout. Room requested for higher floor at 1219 is spacious, clean and excellent facilities. Love the breakfast and where else can you get free apples daily with complimentary mini bar. Location is perfect and gym facilities is great too

This hotel has well-trained staff who are very friendly and helpful. Although it’s an old building, you get what you expect here. I especially remember one staff member named Kamaruzzaman a great guy. The hotel should give him some appreciation. overall..good..food good. staff superb

Attended a farewell dinner for our head of department, Penang GH at Berjaya Ball Room 3 days ago . Staff incharge of events Pn Rafidah n her team (Staff on duty was loy,acun,Drafi,Hilmi) done a wonderful job.food for the event was awesome.A well organised event basically. They even arranged a Family room for me which was spacious n clean. Swimming pool was clean as well. Kids loved the breakfast....

We stay in this hotel twice a year due treatment to my mom to a hospital accross the street. The room we booked mostly is family room which is have no problem at all, everything was perfect, ac running well, water heater is perfect, we just love the room. The staff also really helpfull especially Ronaldo, the one who in charge in dining room during breakfast time. Next year we will come back to this...

One of the oldest hotel in penang. Been staying there for multiple times since years ago. But now the hotel is SOOO OLD. u can feel the OLD-ness vibe and the surrounding is pretty scary like abandon building. But the staff was very nice. Mr Qamaruzzaman and all the staff was very nice and polite. The room was so so. My room was bit dusty. All in all, it was just okay. Just that i have so many memories...

Old hotel but still comfortable. Management need to improve the aesthetic of the building. Room quite neat for family even though toilet do not has bidet. Free parking as for our visit. Breakfast just decent but training staff named #Ronaldo quite hospitable and friendly. Walking distance to mall too. Overall if you don't mind old hotel, you can choose this hotel.Peace

it’s not a 4 star hotel as stated.The tv signal very poor and not in colour ,remote tv also not working. Noise from water pipe while taking bath. Swimming pool place are small. It’s a old building need to upgrade better in future ..overall 3star hotel 😬😅

Great stay here - staff are pleasant and polite, room was clean and comfortable, breakfast was tasty, and location is conveniently beside Gurney Plaza with multiple shopping and dining options. Made a request during booking for a complimentary cake to celebrate my mum’s birthday, and they very kindly noted it down and provided one. Minor areas for improvement - made multiple calls from my room to...

I booked this hotel for my family to stay … the room is not very new but overall is ok .. just that my parents said the room can hear the noise from the corridor … but the hotel staff service are good … breakfast spread was ok …

Hotel is generally good but far out to too many places and also my suites room has lots of ants. Need more thorough cleaning

Location is excellent with 2 shopping malls nearby, room is spacious and clean. The breakfast is great with lot of varieties to choose. Staff are friendly and attentive. Happy with the stay, will be back soon.

Hotel got ice cream and water when you waiting for check in . View no so good . Hotel is nice shopping mall just beside gurney plaza & paragon . Can walk and high tea . There cafe nice and cheese cake at gurney plaza quite good

First time staying here, very comfortable room! It’s next to Gurney Plaza which made it super convenient to eat and shop here. Will come again next time

Excellent overall!First of all,the room is very spacious with sea view and there are two water taps. everything needed is provided!! Secondly,the air conditioner is very good and there is nothing to complain for the bathroom which the water pressure is pretty good. Thirdly, the facility is decent,the only thing that could be improved is the air conditioner of the gym room. The breakfast is good at...

Room bed was full of hairs initially, went down to the receptionist and requested to get it clean again. Overall takes about an hour and the room is clean. At least they make it up to their mistakes I am willing to accept it.

Travel with big huge family members. Room is big. Nice floor for swimming pool n gym. Love it. Hotel lobby is nice with bar attachable. Opposite is garden n alot of facilities for children to play around. Walking distance to mall n gurney fodd court. Next to hotel can easily get beers n snacks.

Lowkey the best hotel in gurney! Spacious room, easy checkin n checkout process and good services. This is my second time here and definitely not the last. Walking distance to all the malls and food places.

Lovely and exceptional hotel. Great view of the sea. Very comfortable and clean room with 30 tv channels. Has a kitchenette with microwave oven n fridge. Great pool for kids. Will be coming back again with the family!

Very recommended to all..strategic located..the room clean..the toilet also clean.. Children can play at children room and playground..

Excellent cleanliness. Breakfast not bad. Good value for money.

Review of Sunway Hotel, George Town I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Sunway Hotel in George Town, and I was thoroughly impressed with its prime location, making it incredibly convenient to explore the surrounding attractions. One standout feature was the spaciousness of the room, which far exceeded what you typically find in newly developed hotels. While the decor and finishing did feel...

Great location with many eatery and local products shops around. Good stay with parking

A four-star hotel should not provide towels with torn edges or bedsheets stained with blood and other unknown marks. Equally disappointing was the breakfast, which offered limited choices and lacked flavor.

Close to all the food centre and easy check-in. Overall, it was a great experience.

Helpful staff and good location. Suggest to travel by Grab for places of interest within Georgetown to avoid hassle of parking. Walls a little thin and could faintly hear noises from outside, else everything is good.

What a beautiful, historic hotel. Occupying a great position in Georgetown near the water the building has a classic facade and timeless charm. Service throughout our 3-night stay was friendly and generous. The breakfasts were great - our favourite was on the terrace in the heritage wing though Sarkies in the Victory annex had lots more choice and a great chef who made roti canai to order which was...

Beautiful hotel. I really enjoyed the grounds and sounds of the ocean at night. I stayed in the original wing and highly recommend it. There are two dining areas, the new wing feels like breakfast in a busy Cafe. The old wing feels is much quieter and relaxed with a smaller breakfast spread and a la carte options. Spacious rooms and antique furnitures with modern amenities like coffee machine. The...

One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. The old wing has an incredible atmosphere — polished wood floors, striped hallways and that classic old-world elegance that makes you feel like you’ve stepped into another era. We stayed in the old building and loved it. The room was spacious, beautifully styled, and even had its own doorbell inside the bedroom — such a unique detail. We also got a newspaper...

I was genuinely impressed by this hotel — it exceeded all my expectations. The room was extremely spacious, beautifully designed, and filled with historic charm. The colonial ambience gives it a character that modern hotels simply cannot replicate. The pool area is stunning, especially with the sea view. It was one of the most relaxing parts of my stay. Service was also excellent. The staff were...

Other reviews would have given u descriptions of the room and they are all true. Spacious room, excellent services & quiet environment. Complimentary Cans of soft drinks given & replenished everyday with bottles of water as well. Free parking. The only complaint is their buffet breakfast. If u stay more than a day or 2, u don’t get any changes to the menu! We stayed for 5 nights & the menu is literally...

Overall, I am satisfied. The breakfast is varied and delicious.

The room is quite small, but it offers a lovely view. It's very clean, although we didn’t have enough space to store all our shopping bags. :) Mr Putasnen Nagadaran was exceptionally helpful and proactive. He made sure my early check-in request was fulfilled with a clean room ready upon arrival, and he even greeted me by name when he saw me in the corridor while he was checking other rooms. He took...

The hotel is quite small but when comparing to the price, it's reasonable.

Nice place, there are many delicious food nearby the hotel. I recommend the ice cream shop “Swatow Lane” and vegan restaurant “Coo Sweet Bun Vegetarian Restaurant”

cleanliness is good the soundproof not very good still can hear the noise from other travellers, the street vehicles and the sound of compressor. btw overall is good.

I would never stay at this hotel again unless I absolutely had no other choice. The toilet doesn’t even flush properly… it’s disgusting! At night, I could hear loud music from a stage performance outside. I specifically told the staff not to give me the last room, and yet that’s exactly what I got. On top of that, the air-conditioning compressor sounded like it was right next to my ear. How is anyone...

I booked without windows reception. Great, give me with windows 928, but aircond leaking waiting 40min no response, then go to reception they changed to 628, which is OK but the pillow to thin but the bed is ok .towel is thin for budget hotel is ok

Strategic location and close to everywhere. Many places selling food and restaurants.

Good place to stay. Just one minus, the pillow so small.

Surrounding by local food pub nearby Komtar good night life too

Good service by the staff with greeting and smiles, very friendly too. The location is great with oharmaxy and food courts nearby. However, the cleaniless part is just normal in general. The right site of the bed has a loose metal spring, which comes out and scratches my feet until bleeding. The electric plug only available at main table site which it's broken too. So if you need to.charge your phone...

Location very convenient and ample parking space. Room space is big.

Had a pleasant family stay at Red Rock Hotel! Great location on Jalan Macalister, close to Penang’s famous hawker food. Our room was spacious and clean, though a bit dated. The pool was great for the kids, and the staff were friendly. Hotel could use some renovations, but for the price, it’s a good budget-friendly option in George Town.

The location is great, have many restaurant and mini mart nearby. Quiet place, we have wonderful sleep.

Great location. If you need the hotel that you can walk to many landmarks this is the great choice

I had a great stay at this hotel. The location is very convenient—close to public transportation, restaurants, and major attractions. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The price was reasonable for what was offered. Overall, I was very satisfied and would definitely stay here again in the future.

The location is superb! Walking distance can reach beryls chocolate mansion, cookiecrumbs and etc. 2 o clock direction from lobby got 24h mart, few eatery right Infront hotel. Most of the famous local delight also can reach by foot! The downside of the hotel just not sound proofing，light sleeper might need to request corner room. But highly recommend from us and will stay again next time!!!

I really enjoyed my stay here. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff were very friendly. I’d be happy to come back again.

The room has a fake window with outside is a wall which cannot tell the room has "city view" (see picture). The facility is old but clean. There is no table in the room which it is quite not convenience for me to browse on my computer. The layout of the room is not reasonable as the toilet door is hidden on the back of the room which is not convenient to use. The service is good enough as per this...

Staff is nice and helpful but the room is quite old and the floor produced sound while stepping on.

But not suitable with guest who came with own vehicles because so hard to find parking around the hotel area. Also, during our stay aircond is not functioning in one of the room. Called the maintenance but still the problem is not fix.

Our fav hotel everytime we hit penang island. The best.. our daughter lovessss the bathtub so much. Me too.. will repeat!!!

Location is unbeatable and very charming hotel, but the overall quality match well with the price you pay.

We stayed for 3 nights here! Check-in was swift since we arrived at the hotel ~5pm. We loved the spacious room with vintage Peranakan decor. The king-bed was so comfortable. Best experience was the bathtub with jacuzzi! After a hot day touring around Penang, a long soak in the tub was very refreshing! The air-conditioner tripped on our last night 😭. Thankfully the ceiling fan was strong enough to keep...

I love the heritage cultural, wooden style, historical vibe and especially the first time I'm seeing a bathtub with jacuzzi. Fully furnished and also outside have a water dispenser without worrying to look for water. Very convenient place to stay and also walkable to mamak, street food, restaurants and cafe's nearby. Will come back again the next time when I come to Penang again. 🫶🏼👍🏼👍🏼

The room is considered ok, the service is good, but I have already stayed. There is no drinking water in the room. There is only a kettle. Overall, it is considered ok. There is no drinking water provided. The atmosphere is like being at home or a homestay in Ayutthaya.

Nice comfy old-style rooms at affordable rates in a quiet neighbourhood. Penang should have more of these.

First option if I visit Penang. Very affordable. Near glugor n the best part is near the pasar Tun Sardon eating place - medan selera which best place to have your breakfast penangite style. Recommended.

Too noisy at night if your room faces the back or Penang bridge view. Cant sleep past past midnight with live band musiccfrom the restaurants

The room hotel just ok but AC not function well. Rise the matter to the hotel supervisor. They checking further the room and change new room for me. Staff hotel is helpful and friendly. Easy to get the food and drinks by walking distance.

The air conditioning wasn’t working at all. I contacted the front desk, and they said they would handle it promptly. However, after waiting for about two hours, the hotel finally brought a portable air cooler. Unfortunately, the noise from the cooler at night made it impossible for me to sleep.

Don't recommend paying extra RM30 for the breakfast voucher. The selection is very limited, don't even have the standard Nasi Lemak or kuih.

Overrall the hotel is good. The room is clean and won't be noisy during nighttime.

Hotel Malaysia is a well-located hotel in Georgetown, Penang, offering comfortable rooms, modern amenities, and a rooftop restaurant with city views. Ideal for travelers exploring Penang’s heritage sites.Unfortunately,there're not enough signal for tv and the channel is limited.

Was greeted by receptionist, Joshua who kindly checked us in. It was around 1:30pm but generally check in time was 3pm. Immediately checking in and being told we would have to leave our luggage in reception storage, he kindly informed us that the room was cleaned but didnt have the towels ready till 2:00pm. He provided the option to go to our rooms immediately and for towels to be dropped off to our...

There are very limited car parking lots. For hotel parking lots, it's 10 RM per day, based on first come first serve concept. Public parking lots along the roadside are also very limited. Lot of lucks are needed to find a suitable roadside parking lot. Within the hotel room, the toilet looks new. There is limited view from the hotel room window. There is no swimming pool.

Room and furniture very old already. some dirty for the bedsheet . for me still acceptable. But location is good . nearby all places eat also convenient . Near to kimberlystreet night market .

A very good location, near almost every attraction and famous food. A very outdated hotel but if you don't mind, it is worth staying. The male receptionist is very friendly and helpful.

The hotel is decent if you’re mainly looking for convenience. It’s near to popular attractions and famous local cuisine which makes getting around and sightseeing much easier. The rooms are basic and nothing fancy. My room isn’t spacious enough for my two kids, my wife and I. But it’s enough for my short stay. The breakfast is basic but it’s not that bad. The hotel parking is limited. I’ve never got...

A very good location to reach all attractions around georgetown. Had a great stay with my friends, the toilet was clean enough considering the old buildings and bed was comfy enough to sleep after a tiring day exploring penang. Can do something with the customer service as the receptionist was not really left a good impression. 🤗 Nevertheless, it was a good stay.

Staffs are friendly and welcoming. Good location near KOMTAR, Prangin Mall & 1st Avenue Mall. Has a Coway water filter near the Reception area, so hot drinking water is readily available. The hotel provides complimentary water bottles as well for the room. Water pressure of the shower is good. Toiletries such as shampoo, shower gel & shower cap is provided. Coffee and tea sachets are provided too....

Good location.easy access to main attraction places.

Hotel maintenance is very bad. But the charge is so high. The room environment is too hot even with 16 degrees of aircond at night. The photo shows everything so well and highly environment in the room, however when 1st step into the room, I totally regretted just trusting the photo blindly. The room is big but the aircond condition is not acceptable, total spoilt my trip because of this type of accommodations...

Wonderful stay. Housekeeping team prepared cute decorations for my stay. Thank you WOW Hotel Penang

Great and convient location to stay! Easy access to keys atractions around city.

Hotel is very central 2mins walk from Komtar main bus terminal and malls, heritage sites and Penang Famous Chendol Rooms are very modern and spacious in size so very comfortable and clean too Great value for money will come back again

As soon as you enter the main hall, you can feel a positive atmosphere of calm and serenity. The style is well-maintained. Clean rooms. Courteous and attentive staff. Good location, just a few minutes from the historic center. I would gladly return. Perhaps the only downside is the noise coming from the various air conditioners.

A pleasant stay with complimentary afternoon tea daily from 3pm to 5pm. I'm lucky to have an early check in 😊 Small issues like the toilet door got stuck and couldn't open, remote batteries went flat, hand towels missed out after make up room - these were resolved fast, so no major concerns. The location is great, good food is within walking distance and shopping malls are nearby. Best is roti prata...

It’s a convenient location and easy to get around. Lots of nice food nearby too. A cosy hotel and the rooms are clean.

Pleasantly surprised to find the rooms super big & location of the hotel right in the heart of George Town. Simple afternoon tea included. Cross a street to get to Chowrasta Market, Kimberly Night Market & famous Penang Chendol . Paid street parking is limited during the day but by night, it's quite available. Light sleepers, do note that you can easily hear traffic noise/ other guests along corridor

We love the room, antique furniture, and spacious room. Beautiful courtyard garden.

Pros: stylish renovation, clean and tidy, near popular eateries Cons: surroundings got beggars, no good views outside, too dim inside the room

“Great location with easy access to everywhere. I absolutely loved the pillows, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I’d definitely recommend this place to all my friends.”

Great hotel with good service. Has lots of food places nearby and some malls. Night markets are within walking distance too. Will be back again!

Jen Cafe : This staff team is excellent and professional. Even when the cafe was crowded, they were patient, always smiling, and worked hard to seat everyone. They truly stand out as the best team in the entire hotel. Location: Great! The hotel is close to many popular visitor spots and a variety of famous food. Front Desk: The service was just okay. Housekeeping: This needs improvement. The...

Excellent Stay with a Great Location I had a fantastic experience at Jen Penang Georgetown Hotel. The room was immaculate, spacious, and thoughtfully designed with an armchair and king bed. I particularly appreciated the automated bidet in the toilet. The hotel's location was ideal, close to TOP Komtar and First Avenue Mall, yet it still felt peaceful and private. What truly stood out was...

Good location with easy access to good food & shopping. Hotel is clean and staff are friendly and helpful. Will stay again for my next trip to Penang.

Great hotel. Clean and friendly service. Its within walking distance to alot of eateries as well. Enjoyed Penang!!!

Value for money (deal). Outside the old town, but only 10 minutes walking or you can rent city bikes from the street to the right if the Burma entrance. Very nice local dinner options right outside, and other entertainment, healthcare etc., but if you are in town for the old town feeling, this may not be first choice. Bad Wi-Fi, get your own sim with data. Great breakfast. Nice staff. Nice room, with...

We arrived at this 1926 Heritage Hotel and found our way around the arrival hall to get to the reception located at the side entrance to check in. Athough our room has been renewed but it still shows signs of a poorly restored job. The housekeeping staff should remove the beds to vacuum and mop the floor underneath them. The hotel certainly needs a decent refurbishment to bring it back to its heyday...

This one of a kind hotel is unique. The architecture is from the British Colonial. It's old but they are trying to keep it the way it was during it's hay days. They have done a marvelous job. The Monroe restaurant is small but they serve everything that you can imagine. As the saying goes, nice things come in small packages. Food there is of top notch. Try the Italian dish. The breakfast provided...

Cheap but the customer service is so awesome!! The vibe so warm. If the swimming pool can open from 7am -10pm, it will be the best

Environment verry Heritage & Style. Clean in overall. Swimming pool not to small but Ok for kids enjoy the pool. Easy Parking because can park near room.

The name explains that it is a heritage building n you will expect an old building. Wooden floor but comfortable. No astro & fridge for room 242. A bible in the drawer. Anyway it is worth it for us.

big room big toilet sofe bed comfort nice area no noise will come again

close to amenities surrounding , location is really prime, never thought a refurbished can be made to such a wonderful heritage ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️hotel!

Nice classic hotel with great location. Very quiet. The heritage style is the main attraction..

TV not working. Too small 16-19 inch Tv. Nice heritage villa house

Parking Provided . Everything okay

We had a pleasant stay for our 3 nights. The bed was reaaaaally comfy. The staff was friendly and the location is perfect. You can go anywhere from there. Thank you!
