This hotel is great value and is in a very good location right near all the sights of Georgetown.

The rooms are large and spacious, we had a family room which was split into 2 bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. Room were fairly clean however they are getting close to needing a refurbishment. Beds and bedding is quite old and hard. This however is outweighed by the great price and the sweeping views of Penang we had from our room.

The pool area was awesome, with a large pool and spa/kids pool.

There is parking onsite, which can be easy to miss when driving past.

All in all we had a great stay and will be sure to return.

Date of stay: October 2020

During the MCO, tried their Fish and Chips, part of their Takeaway Deals. For RM15 per set, it was a bang for the bucks! Crispy fish, golden fries, coleslaw and tartar sauce were delicious! Portion was satisfactory!

My credit goes to all hotel staff as they are friendly and helpful, hotel is clean, breakfast is ok but can be improved (more variety), family room is spacious and value for money, love the jacuzzi, strategic location where eateries, malls and tourists attractions are nearby.

Location was central to all the best attractions in George Town. I had the options of either walking or driving - the former being a great choice considering the holiday peak! Also, there were initial issues with facilities (e.g. alarm clock, bulb, switch) but the maintenance staff were quick to rectify it with such professionalism and politeness. The hotel may have been from the 90s, but their upgrade works (some still in progress) are great in keeping up with modern times!

Room tip: Higher floors have better views (either of the town or towards the sea). 8th floor onwards would be good.
