We had a very nice stay at the Parkroyal, Penang. The grounds were beautiful and awesome to lay back on a sun lounge and have a drink. The location of the hotel was close to some great restaurants and the night markets which was ideal. The rooms were alright, slightly dated but still comfortable. Breakfast was good, nothing amazing but... More

Spent three nights at Park Royal, just after the school break weekend so it was quieter. When we arrived by car, there was a noisy picket line at the entrance, some staff were at odds with the management, and decided to protest noisily with vuvuzelas, drums,and revving bikes. Not a pleasant greeting we expected as it went on daily from... More

Booked a garden view and was very dissapointed with the so called superior room. We upgraded to a grand delux sea view at a cost of an extra rm2000 which is £500 for 1 week and this is what I would call a superior room not a grand delux. This hotel has now cost approx £200 per night. Not worth... More
