"One of the best hotels - if not the actual best in Malaysia: everything was seamless and exceptional from the welcome to the food to the check out, congratulations to the entire team (front office, back office and housekeeping) for what they do day in day out! A stand out food wise in Penang is the restaurant Lili - exceptional chef, talent to watch!"
