What guests think

Travellers describe U Hotel Penang as a budget-friendly stopover with a very convenient location near eateries, supermarkets, and USM, making it practical for short stays and business visits between George Town and the industrial area.

Rooms are compact and functional, with some noting dated elements, soft mattresses, or layout quirks like a shower without a divider; a few appreciated Netflix and a business-friendly setup. Many reviews praise clean rooms and bathrooms and generally friendly, efficient staff, though a few mention dust or odors. Other occasional issues include a nonworking Wi‑Fi connection, limited in-room amenities such as no toothpaste, and some noise or humidity. Overall, expect a simple, good-value base.

Place was great and bed was comfortable. I had a good sleep. A lot of eateries and convenience stores nearby. Seamless check in and deposit was RM100. Staff very friendly and approachable. The only thing is that inside the room I feel the area where the iron board is and the cups and utensils was dusty. I feel the hotel can improve on this. Otherwise good stay. Will definitely stay again.

Beware horrible smelly dump! Hobos sleeping out froht as we walked in through the cigarette smoke around front door. Dark scratched up painted walls in room. No shower to toilet divider leavng toilet seat slippery wet at all times. No wash cloths. Very few outlets. Very dark room, smelly and dirty floor. Definitely not family friendly and should be a one star or less rating.
