Excellent location in the middle of the old city, easy walking distance to lots of the street art that Georgetown is famous for and the jettys, street food areas and lots of restaurants in little India and chinatown. The breakfast is very good, lots of choice and freshly prepared. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms are clearly individual, so this applies to a loft room which we chose, I had some concerns about noise with a city centre location but our room was very quiet and we were not disturbed by noise from inside or outside. The property itself is fascinating, you can easily spend an hour or two looking at the architecture and many historic exhibits. I will certainly return for future visits.

The infinity pool was awesome, I think there is no any other property that has this splendid view. The whole Penang view with such a clean environment would definitely make people come back again and again. Not only the view of the swimming pool, but to talk about the room. What a clean room with fully equipped room amenities. We booked a 2 bedrooms unit. The checking in process was very smooth, as well as the checking out. We did request some laundry bags and some extra towels, and the service was nice with my request.

We recently stayed at the Stewart Hotel and were impressed with our experience. The location of the hotel is perfect, close to the main attractions in Georgetown making it an ideal base for exploring the city-close to Little India and the city’s street food scene. The room we stayed in was spacious enough, with some extra beds provided, the hotel building is in a local style so we felt more connected to the local culture. We will definitely be back on our next visit.

Ideal property in the heart of Georgetown. Room was small, but very clean. Since the property was in walking distance to all the sites you don't spend a lot of time in the hotel

Lovely guesthouse in a strategic location. It's within walking distance to the main attractions of Georgetown but still quiet at night. The room is charming (love the wooden floors) and the both bed-and bathroom are very clean. Staff are really friendly and helpful.

The bed was huge and comfy, the room was very clean, coffee and tea provided daily, several toiletries provided also. The swimming pools location is a bit odd but it is a lovely pool to have a dip in and looks beautiful at night. The walk way at the front with the Koi ponds is also lovely. The staff were always very welcoming.
