Located within the UNESCO World Heritage Site of George Town, Ren I Tang Heritage Inn is located in a restored building from the 1800s. Spanning an area of 3 shop house units, the property features free WiFi, a restaurant and small museum on the ground floor, which used to be a medical hall. The breakfast was amazing with fresh local fruit and specialties. The staff was very kind and understanding (especially in light of our late arrival). The location is in the middle of GeorgeTown (and could not be more centrally located with nearby attractions all within walking distance). There's even a decent sized grocery store across the street if needed. The interior of the hotel is a renovated historic shop/warehouse and is full of charm. Highly recommended.

Situated in George Town, 2.3 km from Northam Beach and 500 metres from 1st Avenue Penang, My Guesthouse 109 - SELF CHECK IN features accommodation with free WiFi, air conditioning, free bikes and a shared lounge. It is located less than 1 km from Rainbow Skywalk at Komtar and offers private check-in and check-out. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and luggage storage space for guests. Laid back, clean, and full of very sweet and sociable cats! I love the way the space is decorated and the room itself had everything I needed to have a comfortable stay. Other guests were quiet and generally kept to themselves but also were very kind in the brief interactions I had. If you love cats I highly recommend :)

Set in a restored private mansion, East Indies Mansion is located in the heart of UNESCO World Heritage Site of George Town. Inspired by Chinese shophouses, the property features a large courtyard and classic wall ornaments. Free WiFi is accessible throughout. Clove 1+2 provided ample, comfortable spaces for our party of three. The decor in the common area was incredibly cute. Every time we walked through, I found another interesting thing to look at. The location is within walking distance to all that Georgetown offers, though it still feels tucked away. The staff were professional and kind, making sure we had everything we needed. We loved it so much, we came back and booked an extra night after staying at another hotel.

Located in the capital city of Penang, Seven Terraces is only within a 5-minute walk to the significant Goddess of Mercy Temple and the popular Penang Peranakan Mansion.

The property is just a 10-minute walk from Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, Penang Museum and the large Chinese clan house of Khoo Kongsi. Penang International Airport is a convenient 30-minute drive away. A perfect place to enjoy the Peranakan or Straits Chinese (Fusion of Malay and Chinese cultures) in the heart of this former British colony. The hotel is beautifully renovated and the restaurant (Kebaya Dining Room) serves amazingly delicious food.

Situated within the UNESCO World Heritage city of Georgetown, Coffee Atelier is a collection of 5 beautifully-restored shophouses dating back to 1927. Featuring spacious suites with free Wi-Fi, it an art gallery and its own coffee museum. I had an amazing stay at Coffee Atelier in George Town’s UNESCO heart. This boutique gem, set in beautifully restored 20th-century shophouses, blends old-world charm with modern comfort. My suite was spacious, filled with antique charm, and had all the essentials, Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, and a cozy vibe. The location is perfect, just steps from Chulia Street, Blue Mansion, and Armenian Street, making it so easy to explore Penang’s vibrant street art and food scene, yet it’s surprisingly peaceful. The staff who took care of us were incredibly warm and helpful, sharing great local tips. Highly recommend for a memorable Penang stay!

It was like a film set.
