Historical building in the center of old George Town. There is so much history to this building especially if you are familiar with early 1900 East Asian history. Walkable to Armanian street with all the cool street arts, and this a lot of restaurants near by. Friendly staff that kept the property well maintained. The house condition shows the age, but consider this property was built over 100 years ago, you can’t complain too much. Only negative if the loud music from the food center next door that lasts until midnight every day, makes deep sleep a bit difficult

After seeing our ‘offsite’ room - kilometers away, decided not to stay, at all. Biggest travel disappointment, I have had in years. Maybe, ever . . . . Did not stay (we declined our room) so can’t tell you about the rest?? Don’t let anyone force you into staying ANYWHERE, you are not comfortable / happy with. Life is too short. They should just stick with being a Museum. They are NOT hoteliers. Cool little place for a walk thru. That’s it. We went somewhere else, even though I paid for it. I am cheap and I went somewhere else and paid again - that’s how bad the experience was.

Old historical building. Dated building but well maintained and restored. Excellent location to explore old parts of George Town . Excellent restaurant and Cafe on site. Good street food right next door. Massage at Siam Paradise nearby was excellent. Good for 2-3 days stay to enjoy GeorgeTown and surrounding attractions.

Exceptional hotel, service was impeccable! The room was very spacious with all the amenities you would need. Lots of extra special touches included for your stay, loved the small sweet treat left at night. Breakfast selection was very good, the staff’s attention to detail was superb. Would highly recommend a stay at the Blue Mansion, not only for the history but also the level of comfort. The only negative was that the pool was a bit out of the way to get to & didn’t have the same atmosphere as the rest of the property, otherwise could not fault the service, room & all other areas of the hotel.

Overall, we liked our stay at The Blue Mansion - the staff is friendly and helpful, and the breakfast is good. We checked in on a Saturday and there was a concert in the open area, which was very close to the rooms. The daily room cleaning was of variable standard.

Lovely heritage mansion but...
This is a lovely hotel with jhrd working & attentive staff. However, if you are looking for an exclusive mansion/boutique hotel experience, you won't find it here. The residence is a combinatiom hotel & tourist attraction with non-guests visiting communal areas throughout the day on amplified guided tours. Not as mindful, considerate or demure as we were hoping for.

I was in Penang about 5 years ago and stayed at the E&O. We came to the mansion for a museum tour and fell in love with it, so I promised myself that if ever I came back, I would stay here. This place is magical. No, you will not find gyms or lifts and you should probably pack lightly as lugging your cases around won’t be easy. However, it is an absolute privilege to be able to stay in one of the 20 rooms. The staff are attentive and the location is brilliant. Walkable to just about everywhere (though super hot). I am just happy that someone had the foresight to restore this place with such thought and love.

An incredible hotel to stay in while in Penang: you are transported back in time in the decor, detailed accurate renovations but with current conveniences and thoughtful touches. We stayed in one of the 2 town houses not the Blue Mansion itself, which we would recommend. ( - the main hotel I would imagine would also be fine, apart from 2 daily tours open to the public although hotel guest areas were roped off.) Our house was ‘Zhang’- a 2 floor original Chinese house beautifully and accurately restored - loved the design and in keeping furniture. Shower was brilliant/ in enormous bathroom, with lovely products. Multiple fans and A/C in bedroom. Washing machine which was handy. There was also daily maid service as in the hotel which was an easy 10 mins walk - but a phone call away, when it was raining brought a car to our door to get us for breakfast. That was excellent and on our early start the day we left, a lovely picnic basket was delivered with goodies to take with us. ALL the staff were polite, smiling and did a great job at welcoming us. As for the city…,loved it- something for all. A favorite in our 3 week trip in SE Asia.

This is a beautiful traditional building which also has a museum. It was used to film some of the scenes in “Crazy Rich Asians”. The building itself is gorgeous, and my room was very comfortable and had all the expected amenities. The breakfast was really nice and the hotel is well located in Georgetown. I was able to walk to shopping and restaurants, and always felt safe. I would definitely pick this very special place again for a future stay.
