Had a wonderful stay in Royale Chulan Penang. We loved our room, it was very comfortable and it had a balcony which overlooked the pool. Would definitely choose Royale Chulan again in the future if I were to visit Penang again.

One night stay. The room was nice, clean with a large bed. Free parking and nice reception. Our room faces the jetty. Nice view. Located in Georgetown so you dont have to travel far for food and other attractions in Penang.

Cons. Leaking shower head, water from shower flows into the room, shower drain clogged.

Maybe it was not my luck to get that room. I want to complaint but for a one night stay, not worth the fuss.

But overall a nice hotel.👍

Dear FarhanNor,

Greetings to you from all of us at Royale Chulan Penang!

Thank you for your feedback on your recent stay here with us. We are indeed happy to hear that you found our rooms and facilities favourable and that you found the location of our hotel convenient during your stay. With George Town being in the core zone of the UNESCO Heritage Site, it has a lot to offer, from food and to other historic landmarks, just a stone throw away from the hotel. I am sure you had a good time walking around the old George Town heritage area. We take note of your comments on the problems you faced in the shower room and have highlighted it to the Maintenance department for their further action.

We are certainly looking forward to welcoming you back here again and we would like to thank you for selecting Royale Chulan Penang as your accommodation of choice.

Kind regards,
Dennis Lee

It's a very comfortable hotel. The staff is very friendly and nice. The breakfast is very generous. At last, the bed is very big and we slept very well. In our opinion, you have to book a room in this hotel

The deluxe room with pool view was comfy, clean and big to stay in throughout my 3 nights. The hotel staff from the bellboys, concierge, receptionists, cafe staff, security guards and cleaners were polite and professional. I like that the bathroom has conveniently separated the toilet and shower area with doors. But I hope the hotel can consider installing another power socket beside the beds so that 2 person can play on their devices in bed and charge their devices concurrently. I enjoyed my stay.
