Recommended by a friend, I booked a room for 5days 4nights. Went to Georgetown with my fellow grad student last May 2023. I love this property and highly recommended. Situated within Georgetown’s core zone and very accessible to all significant sites. The property is clean and safe. The staffs were all kind and welcoming. Internet is fast too. Took advantage of my holiday break in graduate school and went to Georgetown for vacay and research work on the side. My colleague left a day earlier and so I was alone on the last day. Upon checkout, I forgot that I placed my earrings on my bedside table. I only remembered it when I returned to KL. Then the following day (past 8pm i think), I called the property about my earrings. I was so scared of losing it for it’s a present from my brother. I was told the by the receptionist on duty then to call back the next day so that I can speak with the staff on duty and check with the housekeeping. Just before I thought of calling back the next day, the day shift receptionist messaged me on whatsapp asking about some details so that they can check the room and the housekeeping on duty. Before that, I asked my colleague who was with me about my earrings and she told me that she forgot to remind me but she placed my earrings in the side pocket of my back because she thought that I might missed it. Upon checking, my earrings are indeed in my bag. Simple gestures means a lot. I appreciate the extended help of this property. A different kind of hospitality. I will certainly stay here again when I return to Georgetown for another holiday vacay soon.

I do love this hotel! Not at a busy road yet near to other famous must visit sites in Georgetown, Penang Island. There is a food stall where you can enjoy your 'TEH TARIK' right infront this hotel. Never to worry about the surrounding noise. Room is well-designed, nice decoration, bed is comfortable & bathroom is clean & spacious! All staff are very polite & helpful. I really love the garden & little cafe too! They provide parking too. Will come again! Remember this hotel name!

I stayed 5 days at this wonderful boutique hotel & loved every minute of my time here! My room was extremely clean & comfortable, with an incredibly soft bed. The hotel was right in the heart & soul of George Town's vibrant centre, & the staff went out of their way on several occasions to ensure my stay was perfect! I would definitely recommend the Mclane Boutique Hotel, thank you (Elyn & Sha especially) so much for a wonderful stay.

You want to be in the old town of Penang, that is THE place to stay. Very clean and nice people at the front desk. You are at 5 minutes walk to the Indian quarter. Plenty of restaurants and cafés. Take room in the back of hotel. No noise at all!
