This hotel has a great location on the outskirts of central Georgetown, near a good shopping mall in Penang Island. The rooms are spacious and modern, but the outdated TV from the '90s was a downside. The service was impeccable with quick responses to my requests. The dining experience with juicy burgers was a highlight. The facilities were top-notch, offering various amenities. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel is conveniently located near many of Penang's famous Hawker eateries and other dining places, offering easy access to the culinary delights of Penang island. While the rooms are clean and comfortable, the outdated TV from the 90s may be a downside. The service is efficient, addressing my requests promptly.

The hotel is conveniently located near a shopping mall, making it great for shopping and not far from central Georgetown and Komtar shopping center. The rooms are spacious and modern, with the only downside being the outdated TV from the 90s and the lack of Wi-Fi. The service was excellent, especially with prompt responses to requests and efficient room service. While the surroundings were slightly on the outskirts of central Georgetown, the proximity to shopping centers and tourist attractions made up for it. The dining experience was delightful with flavorful home-made yogurt served, but some may find the prices a bit high. The facilities were impressive, offering various commercial services and convenient laundry options.

The hotel is conveniently located close to popular tourist attractions and many of Penang's famous Hawker eateries. The rooms are comfortable, but the outdated TV may not suit everyone's taste. The staff were attentive and fulfilled my requests promptly. The on-site cafe offers artisan bread, which was a nice touch but lacked variety in dining options. Despite the lack of Wi-Fi, the hotel offers paid shuttle services to ensure convenient travel around the city.
