Excellent stay in Royal Chulan Penang

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 16 Oct 2019via mobile
It was the best ever experience that i ever had in my life when i our room was upgraded from junior suite to Royal Suite. The most expensive room in the hotel. I was so surprised when the front desk inform about this. It was an once in a lifetime experienced that i will never forget. The hospitality was great. For sure will stay at this hotel again.

Dear KHALL75,

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

Thank you for your feedback on your 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 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

Enjoyed the friendly staff and light, spacious room. Well appointed, comfortable bed - pillows could be softer 🙏🏻
Breakfast was good without being over the top, just keep an eye on stocking up as items run out.
Handy position just 5 mins from ferry and a good part of town. Would definitely return and recommend

Staff here were welcoming from the start and even helped us find a dentist when needed! Large room with a big bed and nice shower. The pool was a welcome relief from the heat and only busy late afternoon. The gym is small but has everything you need. The breakfast was surprisingly good considering this is included as standard. Lots of choice of bith western and eastern options. Also had a great massage in the spa which was really reasonably priced.
