Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The room is very clean and comfortable and the hotel staff is very good and friendly. The toilet was choked during our stay and the maintenance staff came and settled the problems immediately. We can see part of the sea from the window and the view was nice. The only drawback was that there was no drawers in the room and it was a bit difficult for storage.
Brand new hotel in a convinently lbut quiet ocation in Georgetown. Walking distance to many eateries and local sights plus plenty of transportation options including Penang Central Transit Area (CAT) buses connecting to Komtar and Jetty (Pangkalan Tun Uda) for ferry connnection to the mainland.
