Picturesque View
The view was amazing. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The food market across the road was fantastic with authentic street food. It was only a 5 minute walk to the supermarket. The parking was very good and the location was great for accessing the National Park.

Rooms were outdated with leaks. Only 3 lifts serving 32 storeys, with 1 broken down. Had to wait over 20 minutes for lifts, if I wasnt heabily pregnant I would have just walked down the 15 flights. Everything was slow, though staff were very friendly the service was incredibly slow. The lobby is terribly small and it cannot cooe during the local holidays. Again, nothing against thr staff who were very kind and pleasant. The hotel just isn't it!

Great location/view, but service SUCKS !!
1) I don’t have local Malaysia phone number, so when I checked in early, FrontDesk has no way to contact me when my room is ready (hello, there are technologies that integrate into your CRM that can send text messages to all phone numbers!). So the FrontDesk just told me to come back at 3pm which 3 hours away. 2) I travel by myself and requested a King size bed of a premium suite. They gave me a King size bed with a bunk bed in the living room. And it seems that someone lie on the bunk bed and housekeeping didn’t do anything about it (see pic below). 3) There are 2 colors for the pillowcases. Seems odd for a suite that cost $180 a night (see pic below). 4) Requested late checkout at 4pm cuz my flight is at 8pm. They want to charge RM60 per hour for each additional hour of stay. And tomorrow is a Monday and not a regular holiday that they don’t have nearly half full of a booking. Great ways to keep customer loyalty for someone who’s willing to spend $180 a night. I guess that’ll be the last time I stay with them.

This property is quite a gem for those who are travelling with family and/or young children and need to spend time in the room. For the price, I cannot think of a better hotel I have stayed at. Our suite was very spacious with an incredible ocean view. The air conditioner took some time to get going but, we realize from staying in other hotels, it was for our good because it did not turn the room into an ice box and we were able to sleep very comfortably. The staff was outstanding and commendable for traditional Asian hospitality. They were the strongest asset of the hotel, in this writer's opinion. In addtion, the breakfast buffet was plentiful and delicious. If one wants to eat out on a whim's notice, the street food in front is clean, popular and, oh so yummy! Highly recommend the Hompton hotel for value, quality and overall excellence.

Without any compassion or conscience
I had booked this hotel for a week (December 4-13) but to my horror, my young daughter was involved in a fatal car accident on December 7. Thus, I changed my travel plans and booked the first available flight on Singapore Airlines to California for December 9. They did so without a fee on Compassionate grounds. I had to leave the Hompton Hotel 4 days earlier because of this colossal tragedy. The hotel manager, Adrian, has refused to refund the money for the 4 days. Shame on them.

My friend recommended me this property when she visited Penang last month-singing praises on the location & dining that is why I decided to book to celebrate my birthday first time in Penang. :) I reached just in time for check in and when I got to the room there was a birthday cake in the minibar fridge. What a surprise! Room was clean, has a fabulous view of the beach and of course clean sheets. I am definitely impressed! Overall, staff were friendly (especially housekeeping staff) and ready to assist. And I wish the in-room dining hours starts earlier than 11am to accommodate guests who might want to leave hotel earlier for their itinerary or to the airport. Definitely will recommend my friends and family to stay at the Hompton by the beach!
