The hotel was central to downtown George Town and as expected. It did feel like a historic site. Breakfast was basic. It was an easy walk to other restaurants

What a peach of a hotel, you're treated brilliantly by all the staff, they cannot do enough to assist you. Breakfast is lovely with a selection of choices, didn't try the restaurant in the evening as was too busy trying the multitude of dining options around George Town. Would highly recommend this hotel.
