Vouk Hotel Suites, By The Blanket

ホテルの案内にある「人気の設備とサービス」は選択の判断要素であるが、 ・地域内シャトルサービス ・ランドリー設備 ・ビジネスセンター は無かった。 こんなことなら他のホテルを選んだので、正確な情報を掲載してほしい。

It’s an older building and outside downtown area. Restaurant in the hotel close early, front desk staff very friendly.

Excellent staff. Clean and professional hotel. Perfect location for the Gleneagles hospital. The hotel offers a van service to the hospital although it is walkable distance.

Nice big spacious room. Good facilities - free car park, good WiFi, swimming pool, gym. Limited restaurant service but plenty of eateries in vicinity - Gurney is just 10 mins walk away. Not sure whether its an oversight - previous occupier left a cup of bubble tea in the bin and the bin is not emptied. Limited cable TV - only loxal channels. Only 1 set of toiletries (shower gel and shampoo) for a double room. Have to request for replenishment. Booked for 2 nights but room cardkeys were deactivated after 1 night - have to get it validated at reception. Renovation is dated and the basin tap head came off easily.

Modern spacious rooms. Rooftop pool with great view of city. Clean. The only suggestion I have is to train the staff to learn English if the hotel wants foreigners. Most staff do not speak English…

Room and service was all good, facilities are temporary closed. Overall for a short stay was ok.

Cleanliness not up to par. Cups have stains in them and the kettle was not cleaned (foul smell inside the kettle. I think the previous customer might have cooked something in it. It goes to show that the housekeeping people did not even check the kettles or cups in the room. Although location is excellent but the cleanliness need some work.

Rundown We booked 2 rooms both is so poor maintain. The floor is so so oily, because they using tiles, and didn't clean it. Toilet leakage The sink is literally leaking while we using it. Water Heater The water heater will suddenly no hot water in the middle of shower. Dirty in overall Table, floor, bed and everything inside the rooms don't really clean properly. Very disappointed with the rooms condition.

Cockroach on bedroom, yellow stains on shower floor, musky smell

Booked for 2 nights but room cardkeys were deactivated after 1 night - have to get it validated at reception. Renovation is dated and the basin tap head came off easily.

Although the staff were very nice and friendly, the place was really dirty. I won't be returning unless they improve the cleanliness.

Room wallpaper coming off, dressing chair leg is losses, wash basin tap water milky color, towel colour looks like milky colour afraid to used, hand shower not working properly when shower, shower glass dr hinges is loosing when closed it bang on glass panel, hot water not working in one of their guest rm & chair fabrics need to change become it looks dirty etc.

Water heater is not working and we have to change room, and upon moving into the new room, similar problem happened on the following night. Bedsheets and towels are stained and yellow. I dont think this hotel is rated as said.

Good location. Room size is good. Lighting in the room inadequate, gloomy. Amenities insufficient. Housekeeping irregular.

Staff were very welcoming and friendly. The price was reasonable and location was great. The building and room was nice although there were a few things that could have been better. The mini fridge was not working properly and was not cold, the carpet in the hallway was really worn out and unfortunately on our last day there was a cockroach climbing on the wall of the washroom.

Likes - Good location, big room, polite and friendly staff, room service to repair the safe and deliver drinking water was prompt Dislikes - kettle base needed to be scrubbed, no bedroom slippers, no face towel, no proper teaspoon only plastic stirrer, carpet at lift lobby needs to be vacummed

One of the rooms i booked was leaking badly. Another room, i can only usecthe hair dryer each time for leaa than 5 mins. Then i need to wait for 5 mins for haur dryer to work again.

The executive suite do need proper maintainent especially the bath tub and water outflow system.

Room was spacious though we can hear the closing of doors, flushing, turning on and off taps. The service staff are extremely courteous and the doorman offered great help in recommending places to visit.

reasonable priced, spacious and comfortable room

Good location. Room size is good. Lighting in the room inadequate, gloomy. Amenities insufficient. Housekeeping irregular.

This is my second time staying at Vouk Hotel in Penang. I am unlikely to stay here again as the maintenance issues seem to be getting worse rather than better, unfortunately. It's not a bad place to stay; the hotel just needs a lot of work. Pros: *Central location to easily access most of Penang's popular areas; walk to Northam night market (5 minute walk), Gurney Drive/Plaza (10-20 minutes walk), and even historic Georgetown (20-30 minutes walk). *Very comfortable bed and linens. *Very spacious room and bathroom. *Great pharmacy and a Starbucks next door. *In-room, secured safe deposit box with customizable digital code. *Large workstation/desk and plenty of cabinet space. Cons: *Found several bugs/roaches in the bathroom, some adults and many babies, and one adult in the main area. *No hot water in the shower or sink the second day. *Needs minor maintenance (damaged wood flooring, inoperable wall light to the left of bed, electrical switch on left of bed sticks out from wall, wallpaper needs to be replaced, etc.) *Wifi is annoying to access, especially with a laptop. Each time you return to the room you need to re-login to the network. *Cash deposit of RM100 required to check in. *Hotel hallways are very dated and need a renovation/upgrade. *Not very quiet; you can easily hear people in the hallway and the adjacent rooms. I suggest getting a room at the far end of the hallway, furthest from the elevator, to minimize noise.

Prce is cheaper near to where my mum is.. but service has dropped in that towels and shower gels were not replenished automatically but need to ask housekeeping for them for all 3 days, even after making up the room

This hotel was rated as a four star hotel, that would not be a correct assessment, it is more like a 2 star or possibly a 3 star. We booked two rooms, the first room TV did not work and the A/C did not work. There was trash behind the curtain that was not cleaned from the previous guests. The second room hot water did not work. The staff was great and helped move us from the first room to another room. This room had an adjoining door to another room and we could hear that family very clearly throughout the night.

location : main street

Near the beach

Please note: the area around the property is safe at night. However it is a commercial area, so no tourist sights, no history, nothing to see, nothing to do, limited public transportation. You can eat out like in other parts of Penang, so no worries that you'll be forced to take all meals in the hotel. But otherwise is very much a check-in and sleep kind of place.

Nice hotel, easy access to everywhere

It is a good and peaceful area, and is quiet. Surrounding are far away from attraction area.

Buffet limited. No nasi lemak as malaysian standard breakfast dish. Watermelon served is not fresh. Otherwise is great.
