Cititel Penang

8/10 Good

"All front desk staffs are very courteous and offers friendly disposition.. keep it up House keeping doing good job with daily supplies of coffee , tea bags , screamers etc ..clean towels replacements"

The Prestige Hotel Penang

10/10 Excellent

"This was a beautiful hotel and the bedroom was spotless - as were all the communal areas. The Glasshouse was a lovely place to eat and drink and the staff could not have been more welcoming and friendly. There are roadworks around the property right now but this is not really an issue once you’re inside so don’t let this put you off."

AC Hotel by Marriott Penang

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel, nice place to walk around nd eat"

DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hotel Penang

8/10 Good

"Booked for family of 5, 2 rooms, lovely and spacious. But surprisingly there was not an extra bed just a sofa and extra sheets not extra quilt! But room clean and comfortable. Breakfast, there was a good variety. Pool available and pleasant. Location a little disappointing as beach good for views but really noone used it and there was no amenities to speak of there. I would say for me restaurants for dinner of lesser standard than other 4* hotels we have attended, comparatively cost to restaurants particularly in Georretown extortionate for quality offered. Regardless staff very nice and helpful."

lyf Georgetown Penang

10/10 Excellent

"All good"
