Everything is great!! Nothing much to complain. From the moment we entered the property, the staffs are all very welcoming.

Pretty good selection to choose from & they do change some of the buffet items daily. Quality is good. We also ordered room service twice & the satay is good!

    Love the atmosphere with the hustle and bustle of the smaller city. Food is great especially their seafood and hawker stalls, highly recommend Coco Island Street Food for their grilled seafood, Roti Canai Transfer Road for their roti canai and roti bakar and Batu Ferringhi's hawker stalls for their quick fix of Malaysian cuisine like char kuey teow, nasi goreng and satay. Their malls aren't worth going as they have the same shops as in Kuala Lumpur, rather just walk and eat at their local shops.

    Really enjoyed my stay, wonderful food, interesting places to see and the people were very warm. My favorite spot was the hotel, enjoyed everything about our stay and the cafe was wonderful, we ate at least one meal there a day. They served a variety of food so we were able to have something different each meal. The staff at Muntri Mews helped us in many ways, getting us taxis and cycle rickshaws, advice on where to go and what to see and eat. Thank you all for a wonderful stay!! Hope to be back soon!

    Mostly crowded place in any popular Nasi Kandar shop and food court. Its actually worth your while if you are patience and willing to wait The town are full with historical area, not short of explanation given by hotels, pamphlet to explain what going on with Penang, very tourist centric and accomodating even to a new travellers. In Penang, i rather stay in Georgetown or a bit to the south until Air Hitam, rather than in bustling area of nearby Tanjung Bungah or Batu Feringgi because the area are very isolated and a bit far from the most attraction in Penang. In a very busy day, a trip from Batu Feringgi to Penang Hill might take up to one hour! For muslim traveller, Local Indian Muslim (assortment of curry) Nasi Kandar, Nasi Briyani, Gurney Drive and Ais Tingkap is a must!

    Georgetown is a must for everyone.

    Georgetown is a must for everyone. This town is a food mecca... it is hard to find a bad eatery, there are so many amazing places to eat, Michelin star restaurants at local Malaysian prices, hawker centres where you will queue with the aunties for a 6rm plate of the best noodles you'll have ever tasted. There are so many fantastic bars and speakeasies. The street art... it is easy to get lost in the culture as you wander around the old streets, before ducking into a place for a cold drink and some AC.

    Penang is my late dad’s hometown, so i’ve been visiting and staying in the Island many times since I was a child. I’d say that its capital George Town has it all; beaches, historical sites, shopping places, cultural centres, you name it and they got it. One of the must-visit place in Malaysia whenever you’re in the country; please take note that it’s not that close to Kuala Lumpur/KL. If you’re driving from KL, it’ll take around 4-5 hours drive (and longer traveling hours train). Alternatively, you may take a 45 minutes flight via KLIA. Oh, and skip the fancy clothing when you’re in Penang. It’s hot for the most part of the year. There’s no need to suffer in the name of fashion.

    George Town is the perfect destination for those looking for a weekend getaway from the bustling concrete forest that is Kuala Lumpur. It is also perfect for those who hold a deep and special appreciation for cities that preserves their rich history and heritage. As you walk around the city, you can find yourself surrounded by many amazing street art and cute heritage sites, such as temples and other old Chinese architecture. And don't forget about the plethora of amazing and affordable street foods you can come across during your walk. Definitely don't end your day early and make the most of your evening as there are many night markets happening daily.

    Beautifully restored hotel with a tastefully designed new wing. We stayed in the new wing - Victory Annex. The rooms are large and well equipped and there was a private balcony overlooking the sea. Would recommend having breakfast at the 6th floor Planters Lounge rather than the larger ground floor restaurant. 6th floor swimming pool was a bonus and great for a beer and swim after exploring George Town. The atmosphere of the hotel is relaxed and the staff are friendly and professional,

    The hotel location was central of George town main streets and excellent. As soon as we arrived at the hotel, the staff gave us a very detailed introduction to sightseeing in Penang. In addition to that, they prepared a packed lunch box for breakfast since they knew that we would depart early in the morning the next day as well as they sent our parcel at the post office, which was not originally included in hotel service. They also handled the early morning airport drop off for us.

    Good vibe, the room, downstairs and the outside had lots of personality. Nice balcony, nice idea to put out books that guests can borrow. There were options for different languages. The staff was amazing and very helpful. We were woken up by the mosque, but we booked the hotel knowing this and were curious to experiencing that bit of culture. Definitely something special to experience! When in George Town, I would definitely book this hotel again.
