Thisboutiquue motel (I don't think they deserved to be addressed as "hotel" from Malaysian point of view) is selling it through vintage and old furnitures as the boutique theme. But somehow, the motel is poorly maintained. If you are a fan of vintage, I would recommend you to visit the Peranakan Mansion which is within walking distance instead of spending... More

Being a great big fan of old vintage furnitures and accessories, I absolutely love the experience of exploring the hotel various items that graced every corner of the common area. We got the double-storey rooms at the back of the hotel, which is cute, but unfortunately can feel a tad too claustrophobic for some with narrow spaces and low ceiling.... More

We went here as a Christmas treat as part of a long backpacking trip. Yes it's a bit more than some places in Georgetown but for us it was a lovely experience. The owner Dickie is clearly very into his vintage furniture and interior design, resulting in a beautifully considered and original space. There are a few odd touches such... More

Come on Skinnydog, it's not easy running a little guest house like Moontree. You can help by canceling your reservation so they can let the room to another person who might really needed it. And do you know that when you don't show up the owner Dickie has to wait in the guest house for you.( I am also highly... More

i could not say a word about the hotel part of this place, as i only stayed there for drinks. However, staying at the café made me curious to try their accomodation... This place is very pleasant. The entrance is a bit like a little bazaar, full of interesting stuffs, furniture and objects belonging to another era, with peranakan influence... More

I stayed for 3 days enjoying my lovely trip here in Georgetown - Penang Malaysia. Owner of the guesthouse was really helpful. He proactively offered the best places to visit. He even arranged my bus ticket going back to Kuala Lumpur - Malaysia. Excellent customer service! Rolando Jr Joaquin

We didn't stay here over night, but we went early in the morning for an English Breakfast. This was accompanied by an AMAZING iced vanilla latte. My husband had the bacon and cheese focaccia which was also delicious. 8 of us went and all were happy and satisfied. The staff are friendly and the decor is very well thought out.... More

... I'd have to concur with other reviewers here - there are pros and cons to staying at Moontree 47. Dickie greeted us as soon as we arrived, provided a map and mobile phone with instructions to call him if we needed anything. He is more than happy to provide you with Penang tips and local knowledge during your stay.... More

Dickie is very welcoming and the little touch of a mobile phone and map to aide us while in Georgetown was lovely. The shophouse is in a great location for exploring all parts of Georgetown and we were able to walk everywhere from here. The room was quirky and just what you'd expect from a traditional style home. The bed... More
