    The location was perfect, right in the middle of the city, making it easy to find something to eat. There were many restaurants and cafes nearby, especially in Chinatown. It was also convenient to walk around, and it only took a few minutes to drive to other places to eat. Plus, there were plenty of options within walking distance, including restaurants, bars, and tourist attractions. The room was spacious enough for all of us, with a comfortable bed and nice carpeted floors. The staff were very friendly and always had a smile. We even tried the room service in the middle of the night, and the food was delicious. this place was a great choice for our family!

    As for the cons, the hotel can improve on being more attentive to guest requests. However, despite this minor complaint, we highly recommend this hotel to families.

    We recently stayed at a 4-star hotel in Penang and had a wonderful experience. The location of this place was perfect, right in the heart of Georgetown and within walking distance to many of the best restaurants, bars, and tourist attractions. The room itself was spacious and clean, with a comfortable bed and a nice bathroom with a bath. The hotel staff were attentive and friendly, always making sure we were well taken care of. Additionally, the hotel had great amenities such as a sauna, swimming pool, and a fitness studio. The free Wi-Fi was also a plus, allowing us to stay connected during our stay. this hotel provided enhanced comfort and quality services, and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Penang.

    In conclusion, this hotel is absolutely ideal for a stay in Penang. The location is great, being right in the middle of the city, and it is convenient to travel around to other places.

    I booked the hotel through the net, but when I arrived the my booking wasn't in their system. instead of upgrading me to a better room or whatever, they made me wait for almost 4 hours to get my room ready. But when my room is done, they done even call me even though I've already left my phone no to them. I think this was the worse hotel I ever been to.

    Service was very good and attentive to requests. Availability of the sauna was a plus, however pool was small for exercise purposes while adequate for an afternoon splash.

    The welcome given by all staff was outstanding. The buffet-style breakfast was a real treat with a range of choices from western standards (freshly cooked omelettes or pancakes, porridge) to local cuisine such as Nasi lemak and Beef rendang.Even at 6:00AM.View from our room on the 17th floor was great.

    Had to pay a minimum of RM15 for use of a "Business Centre" computer - although this did cover for up to an hour.
