Top Bukit Jambul Hotel Reviews

PARKROYAL Penang Resort

PARKROYAL Penang Resort

8/10 Good
"Naeem did a fantastic job cleaning our room, leaving funny towel animals around the room. Kana was very friendly attendant and the staff in general were. Kids loved the pool and slides. The kids room staff were very helpful, although the kids room itself was very dated. The breakfast was poorly organised and chaotic with limit vegetarian options. The restaurant staff were helpful to locate foods but I have had far better, lunch and dinner is much better."
