Excellent experience in G Hotel Gurney

Review of G Hotel Gurney
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 7 Jul 2019via mobile
This is my 2nd stay at G Hotel Gurney, i really enjoy my stay here all because the experience from the Executive Lounge. Lavinder the manager remember us upon check-in again and assign us on a higher floor L suite, Jason from the Lounge is very engaging with the customer, even my guest also compliments its a 5-star experience. This is the reason i will still paying more for Executive Lounge access and repeat staying in this hotel.
Although the room in Kelawa and the lounge is more beautiful there, but u will see the service here is more friendly here. Strongly recommend G Hotel Gurney.

Hotel location is excellent with a nice view over the water. Rooms are very large in size and clean, large bath nice walk in shower. Room safe and free mini-bar. View across the water is over a large land reclamation project currently underway stretching for several miles. I am sure it will be nice when completed. Hotel adjoins an 8 story mall and you have a night hawker market one block away.

Lobby of the hotel is also very large with attendants at entry doors, room key required to activate elevator. I would say security excellent.

I arranged for a driver from airport, he was there and waiting on arrival nice clean car. Only negative with the stay is that hotel charges a surcharge on taxi rides to airport at certain times of the day?

My second stay this year at G Gurney. Excellent services as always.

I took the L-suite as I needed more space for my kids to run around. This is my second stay in L-suite too, which is a lovely and cosy room to our expectations. However I also faced same problem of sound from connecting room which I hope the hotel can resolve. The conversations can be quite clear at times so privacy is compromised. Otherwise L-suite is perfect for my family.

Accessed both club lounges at both Gurney and Kelawai, which are excellence. Their services are top-notch.

This time we also tried the buffet at Taste Cafe on a weekday's evening, which wasn't really good to me. They only barbecue sausage, chicken, fish and sweet corn. I was expecting beef or prawn or lamb for the price. The cooked dishes are not tempting for me to go second round. There's one Malay section that is culturally interesting to me - where I get to mix different spices from salty to spicy with raw vegetables or dried fishes. Service was excellent though.

Overall had a great stay and will come back.

Dear Guest,

Thank you for staying at G Hotel Gurney and sharing your experience on TripAdvisor.

We were pleased to read that overall you enjoyed your stay. I was however sorry to learn that you had encountered challenges with the sound proofing in the L Suite. Please rest assured that we had updated your profile in the system to see what we can do to prevent the same incident from reoccurring in the future. Another option is you may wish to book our Executive Suite which do not have connecting doors. Your comments on the food quality have been noted and we will review to see where improvements can be made.

Once again, thank you for taking the time to write and we do look forward to welcoming you back in the near future.

Kind regards

G Hotel Gurney located at the heart of Penang with great food and shopping centres surrounding her. Room super clean with their quality toiletries supplies. The only setback is you have to request for comb and shaver as they don't provided as 1 of the required necessities. Overall still like it.

I stay with my family....with 2 children (4 and 10 yo)...we book the junior suite room type...spacious room...separate living room with big sofa...separated shower and bathtub.
Uncomfortable...AC blower at the bedroom blow the cool air to our head and body directly.
The pillow smells bad.
Location is very good....between two mall (Gurney Plaza and Gurney Paragon) and walking distance to Gurney Drive Hawker (street food).
Breakfast taste is good enough...staffs are very friendly and helpfull.
Good ambience.
Overall is good, we will stay here again.
