Welcome to LOOP on Leith! Loop On Leith George Town Penang Hotel by Compass Hospitality We’re a new, trendy and stylish boutique hotel located just beside George Town, Penang’s UNESCO World Heritage Site. Our name comes from our connection to the city. That means being in a super central location, where you can get to many places on foot without spending on Grab cars or taxis. Take the renowned blue Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion (as featured in the Crazy Rich Asians movie), it’s practically a three-minute stroll away. What about cafés, restaurants and charming kopitiams? There’s one directly across the street, and many like it nearby. Likewise, heritage sites, museums and speciality shops… the exploration of George Town begins at LOOP. Our selling point, of course, isn’t just location. You’ll find our modern guestrooms bright and cosy, perfect for relaxing after a long day (or night), equipped with free Wi-Fi and a fabulous bathroom you’ll definitely spend time in. All these, a 24-hour concierge service, our Monkey Kitchen dining and more, make our hotel the ultimate gateway and getaway in George Town. Come stay with us & join the LOOP!

The staff are amazing. truly fantastic .the hotel itself is great clean tidy modern and above all safe. they have a night security guard and the lifts need a room key to operate. Good hot water great shower great safebox good aircon. I would advise anyone who visits Penang to stay at this hotel Have I mentioned how good the staff are, I lost my mobile phone and was allowed to call the UK from reception for free when does that happen. they are all getting dinner on me

Very nice hotel. The room was comfortable and quiet. The situation is quite good not too close to the bars and noisy places and about 500 métiers from the places of intersest. The blue house is just down the road.

My first stay at Loop is in August 2020. I choose to return for its location (of course!) and a very good rate. I would say they have improve lots in terms of service and attentiveness. Listing my experiences: - I arrived early, since it is peak there is no ready room yet. But the man at reception (sorry to have missed his name, date was 5/12/2022 11-1130am) is very welcoming and promise to accommodate the earliest room available. I subsequently went out for a stroll rather waiting. At 1245pm a surprise call telling my room is ready! - I got an Amber room. Very clean with a small window, Caution though, the dimension listed is true 18m square. Nice for couples but not family as it is a bit cramp. - Breakfast is a let down. I acknowledged the charge is reasonable for a hotel but the spread is just too too limited. Coffee is prepared in a big jug with a few local coffee pouches. Overall, I will return. PS: Parking is available at basement but very limited. Be wary of its entrance as there is no indication nor signage. A path going down at the end of building is the indicator. IMO, Violet and Buttermilk has NO windows.

Loop On Leith was a great hotel for a short overnight stay after arriving close to midnight. Room was spotless and comfortable. Wi-Fi worked well. Good location in GT. Breakfast was fairly limited - might get a bit monotonous if you’re staying a few days.

After reading reviews on parking there, I was a bit apprehensive .... but luckily my car isnt big so I could squeeze into the basement parking ... Ha! The room was comfy and cool, bathroom was modern ... but a bit cramped. Breakfast was simple but satisfying. Service was great - special thanks to Linkesh/Lii ! Location was great too ...

check in quite fast and early, no deposit money, for breakfast 30RM for two but very few food choices. the staff is quite good in service. our room had a clogged bathroom problem and was immediately replaced with a new room. the only drawback was that other visitors next to the room were smoking and the smell of cigarettes reached our room.

Small room, window view was blocked, 2 single beds joined together, no cupboard, nothing much on TV, no work desk, very very very narrow ramp going down basement parking, very limited parking space, room arrangement on floor is confusing and almost haphazard... These are the most obvious negative points for this hotel. No breakfast option cos the cafe is closed. There is no other facility in hotel. There's nothing much on the positive side apart from the usual clean sheets and hot shower

Again, a wonderful 7-night stay! Why do we like this hotel so much? 1. close to all the restaurants and cafe and bars in Georgetown; 2. responsive admin; 3. clean room and amenities; 4. walking distance to anywhere in Georgetown. The property is so strategically located we practically walked to everywhere. The weekend was one of the dance performance at Georgetown Festival. We booked the tickets and walked to the venue. It was a mere 15 minutes walk. Nyonya food, Penang food, street food - all available within walking distance. We didn't even need to drive, we just left our car in the basement parking lot. The room was perfect - aircond was working fine and the water heater too. Water pump, according to the hotel, was under repair the first day we arrived. They got it fixed the next day. Great stay and the price is affordable for a seven-night makan trip to Penang. We shall return for the fifth time.

The receptionist was friendly. The room is kinda weird. There's some layout with wall in the centre of the room. Maybe only my room lmao. But yeah service is excellent and the cleanliness? 🙃 You got what you pay? Emm its not that clean but it's not bad either. The hotel is located in a great area where you can walk down the street to eat Pasembor and other things for approximately 10min. The decoration is modern, chic. It even got some informative area at its lobby. Bonus for hearing other room noises 😉
