Top Penang State Museum Hotel Reviews

OZO George Town Penang

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, nice breakfast. Noice from the outside can be heard in the room though"

Le Dream Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very good location to night street food, morning food market. Each staff people were helpful - day to early odd morning hours. Clean room and bathroom. Everything was working."

The Granite Luxury Hotel Penang

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was well located within the centre of Penang with a good selection of restaurants and cafés all within walking distance. The staff both at reception and also cleaning were excellent in particular a staff member who took care of my room who goes by the name of Harun was a lovely chap who could not do enough for us. We felt very welcomed throughout our day and would recommend the granite hotel to future visitors of Penang."

The Prestige Hotel Penang

8/10 Good

"Great location and very clean. However, there was some construction next to the hotel, and occasionally there was an unpleasant sewage smell."

lyf Georgetown Penang

10/10 Excellent

"All good"

Cheong Fatt Tze - The Blue Mansion

10/10 Excellent

"The mansion and staff were fantastic - thank you!"

Cheong Fatt Tze - The Qing Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Stunning rooms, excellent breakfasts, and a great overall atmosphere. The breakfasts were generous, healthy, and delicious, with the bread and specialty butters being particular standouts. The design and finishes throughout the property show real care and attention to detail. The one thing that felt slightly off was the service style. The staff were polite and friendly, but seemed overly reserved and lacking confidence. We were also given a very detailed room briefing on arrival. As it was late and we were tired, a shorter introduction would have been more appropriate, as some of the information felt unnecessary. A beautiful property overall, with just a few refinements needed in the guest experience."

Yeng Keng Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is a lovely heritage-style hotel in the middle of Chulia St. While it's close to all the action, it's also an oasis of calm inside. The pool is small but nice to have (and rare for a heritage hotel). We spent three nights here and on arrival were told that the original room we were booked had been overbooked, but comms via Expedia hadn't come through in advance, so we were downgraded to a Courtyard room, which turned out to be slightly bigger and more comfortable than expected from other reviews. As compensation we were offered the final night in the suite, which was absolutely lovely - I could easily have spent a week in there! Staff were incredibly nice, thoughtful, helpful and kind. Breakfast was so-so - while the buffet was not the most appealing, there were also omelettes made to order, and you're not short of every kind of food option around the neighbourhood anyway."

Cititel Penang

10/10 Excellent

"Its a great location with shops near by. walking distance from the famous blue masion hotel. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!"
