We had a lovely stay at the hotel which was recommended by a friend from Penang. We took the Transfer Suite. We stayed from 10/5-11/5. Both days the morning front desk personnel was great. Check in was only suppose to be at 3pm but he noticed that my wife and I was so tired, he tried to rush the room for us. He also gave us a lot so suggestions to do around Georgetown. But I’m quite disappointed with the night shift front desk personnel who was quite rude to my wife. We too come from a hotel background. I am not going to belittle that person on social media but if management would like to know more, please check my details we were staying at Transfer Suite No.2 during the dates mentioned. You may call me to find out more. Overall, we were tremendously happy with the great service and the cleanliness of the room and obviously it’s value for money. We will definitely come back whenever we’re in Penang. #mysecondhome…

The antique decoration is beautiful but still keep it minimal, the ambiance very comfy ,and the balcony and jacuzzi is a plus point i can relax and enjoy the facility. The location was convenient too, walking distance to many place we wanted to go. It was very comfortable. The staffs were superb. Remember to visit their restaurant, they serve good pasta.

first time. Didn't think it was full house (altho they said so) — they could only offer me 1st floor (of 3) Bed mattress firm, linen ok clean. Towels so so. Phone cord tend to fall out. TV only 1 pathetic English channel; poor reception. Room spacious, with "antique" furniture. Bathroom with jacuzzi.. hot water pressure & volume outstripped cold.. couldn't mix well.. was scalding. The shower was worst.. pressure pathetic. Shower glass panel stained old. Comes morning you'll never miss your alarm. Front road traffic roars with motorcycles & cars that will ensure you're up before the sun's all popped. Back again? Nope

My friend and I had to check out at midnight because the room was just too awful to stay in. Firstly, it was a different room from the one we booked. Secondly, the room had a musty smell. Thirdly, the towel and bedsheets had the smell of damp too. Fourthly, there were bugs on the bed.

This is not our first stay at Penaga, we stayed in the main building, and then in the extension/Transfer. First experience was great :-) ; second (few month ago) was catastrophic. :-( I have to say that this time, it was great again. :-) I guess few month ago, we really had a pretty crappy bedroom which was not well-maintained. This stay, we had a great room at Transfer, quiet and well-maintained. Very pretty indeed as usual, very traditional deco, which I love. Comfy bed too. Thank you for this stay, which gave us the drive... to come again!!! ;-)
