Helpful staff at the counter. Room was clean. Aircon was cool. No complaints. Its a great place to stay for the nostalgia. The only thing lacking is the facilities like gym etc which you would expect from a hotel.

Overall this hotel was great. Staff was wonderful. Only reason why we didn’t give 5* was we had an early morning flight and the room lights are controlled so no ability to get ready with lights. We had to use the lights on our phones. The power works but the main lights in the room don’t. Mildly annoying but manageable.

Everyone was very kind and concerned about our experience. The hotel is beautiful and located on the edge of the historic area. The rooms are comfortable. They serve an amazing breakfast and tea. When on the first day, restaurant staff learned I was a vegetarian, they went and made special food for me! Then, afterwards they checked in with me to make sure I had a good selection. Quite amazing. A wonderful choice in Penang.
