"Excellent hotel in a historic building. Amenities are great and a bit quirky (see how they bring the luggage to the upstairs rooms). Staff is very nice. The Italian hotel on premise is Michelin listed."

"The staff are amazing at this hotel. They are an absolute asset. I believe one was called Martin and there was a Tamil lady, too. They were both amazing.
The rooms are amazing..so comfortable and very big. Loved the massive daybed and the bed. The seating area is great. The location is very good as well."

"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."

The stay at The Blue Mansion Qing Suites is definitely the highlight of my Penang trip. The hotel is stunning and modern and you can just cross the street to visit the original Blue Mansion, whose rooms are too classic for my taste. Highly recommended!!!

Very helpful staff on arrival. Best hotel in Penang’s historical district. I did encounter a problem st checkin though. I believe that breakfast was included with the room. They claim it was not ands I looked at my Expedia receipt and it was not. I don’t fault the hotel but Expedia for this. It’s like bait and switch!

Friendly and helpful staff made my stay a very pleasant one. But the glass partition for thr bathroom made the room lighted when 1 person is using the bathroom and another person is trying to sleep.

One of the most beautiful and unique places we have ever stayed. A villa in the middle of a rain forest surrounded by the most beautiful nature. Everyone there was so accommodating and nice.

Rasa Motel is great value and the staff provides wonderful service! The property is not directly on the beach, it is across the street. There is beach access within walking distance with many beach activities available including boating and jet skiing. The beds in the rooms are VERY comfortable!!! The hotel lobby provides free coffee. There is a very nice outdoor seating area with a library and tables for remote working, smoking areas, etc. The staff also offers luggage holding if you need that...

We booked just a regular room and lucked out with the Old Kitchen room. It was amazing. We had a private hot tub to use and just an overall comfortable room. The bed was great and the AC was even better. The staff is amazing and goes out of their way for you. The mansion is a must stay just beware that the hawker next door is very noisy but stops around midnight. We ate there and it was fabulous. The breakfast at the old mansion is way better than any standard free breakfast I’ve gotten anywhere...

We stayed one night at this remarkable hotel and was professionally chaperone by Pushpa & Andy's excellent service to perfection. Breakfast was awesome and staffs were ever eager to meet your food craving desires. Our only regret is not staying for more than one night and already planning for a second longer visit. Great service and selfless courtesy is what we experienced. Thank you!!

Clean and safe. The infinity pool is exactly as amazing as the pictures portray. I didn’t get to use all the amenities, but they looked great! I think I could bring my family back here next time.

Charming small hotel. Staff, especially Redho & Devi, were so accommodating. Felt a little like ‘home’. The antique and art collection are beautiful. Definitely will stay again if I ever get back to Penang.
