Spacious, clean and comfortable room with a firm bed. Superb location close to a plethora of F&B establishments serving local as well as continental options. Within walking distance to Cheong Fatt Tze Blue Mansion and to Penang Road.

Hotel location is perfect, walkable to all areas however if you want to go further afield to Penang Hill etc Grab taxis are cheap and easily ordered through the app. Rooms are clean, with all you need in them (aircon, fan and electric mosquito killer. You can purchase soft drinks and beer from reception too. The Red Garden Hawkers Market is round the corner and was great for food. We didn’t use the pool but the area looked great with chairs and towels provided. If you are looking for somewhere quaint and close to everything I’d recommend you choose this hotel. All staff were friendly and helpful too.

We had a great stay at Muntri Grove. Great service with a smile, from Joyce and Mr Ragu 😀 Always ready to answer our queries and give us tips and directions to places. Initially worried that it was in a deep location,but the neighbourhood was easily accessible with nice food as well. Made us feel at home. Nice afternoon tea provided with home made kuih! A cosy and homely place to stay. Thank you for the hospitality!

We were there on a work+leisure trip. The hotel is really calm & an oasis in the midst of busy George Town. The staff are warm & welcoming, and the rooms are nicely set up. The only two issues you need to be aware of are: 1. bathroom & toilet are separated, and they are smack in the middle of the room which does not give much privacy when there is more than 1 person staying in; 2. the fans are really noisy.

The staff were very friendly and helpful! We temporarily lost our keys (dropped in a grab taxi in the morning and only discovered in the afternoon) and the lady was very nice about it, helped us contacted the grab and got him to send it back to the hotel :) Hotel is in a quiet street but still very good location for walking around heritage district. Room was tastefully decorated, super clean and comfy - loved the silk dragon motif robe they had in the room!

Excellent place to stay! Located in the city center, the building is an architectural heritage of the colonialists style. The rooms are beautiful and charming. Staff is great and helpful. Pool is the cherry on top. Really recommend

We loved our stay at Muntri Grove. The rooms are spacious and well designed, the outdoor garden is beautiful and the pool upstairs is perfect for that cool down after a morning excursion. So for us it had all the elements we needed and was well located. Service was excellent and we felt very much at home over our 10 day stay.
