1. Cheong Fatt Tze - The Qing Suites

Downtown George Town, 0.4 km from Penang State Museum

"Our stay at the Qing Suites was so wonderful, we could not have asked for a better experience. The history of the building, as well as the Blue Mansion, is fascinating, and adds to the magic of the place. The room was superb - clean and comfortable, with a lovely private courtyard. The main courtyard, where a delicious breakfast was served, is stunning. The staff deserve a special mention - attentive, kind, and always cheerful, and made our stay extra special."

Muntri Grove

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious comfortable room with decent air conditioning and spotlessly clean. Good and adjustable shower with huge shower room and nice sitting area in the room. Staff were always helpful and friendly, and there good recommendations for dining and spa treatments. Free ice cream available in the pool area and filtered water available to help yourself. A great location for exploring Georgetown. Music from local bars carried at night but generally stopped by 1am latest and didn’t stop us sleeping."

Muntri Mews

8/10 Good

"A beautiful heritage terrace house in a fantastic location in George Town, within walking distance of many attractions. We stayed comfortably for two nights, with three guests each enjoying their own king bed and sharing two well-appointed bathrooms. The furniture, décor, and amenities were all thoughtfully chosen. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a vintage stay full of old-world charm"

Cheong Fatt Tze - The Blue Mansion

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful stay in the picturesque, atmospheric Blue Mansion. The hotel staff were really friendly and extremely helpful. A wonderful place to stay for a few nights in George Town"

Mclane Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Well maintained hotel at the heart of GeorgeTown. Excellent location for connectivity to the mainland, via the ferries’ jetty, very close to historical sites (eg the Khoo Kongsi), local eateries and to the lively night scene. Staff are friendly and helpful (special shout out to Nick and Eline). The night staff during my stay could smile more or just offer a warm greeting. Breakfast menu is fair and could be improved with more items l(eg coffee in a pot) plus tastier cereal and sausages. Room amenities are reasonably complete only ergonomics could be slightly improved (eg more flat space to put stuff, localised electrical plug for the kettle and a movable shower head to prevent water splashing onto the wooden door. However I am very pleased there is an in-room safety box and an air conditioner that could be turned off completely when the room gets too cold. The price is reasonable for a boutique hotel, Overall I enjoyed my stay here and would strongly recommend the hotel to local and international guests."
