Located within the UNESCO World Heritage Site of George Town, Ren I Tang Heritage Inn is located in a restored building from the 1800s. Spanning an area of 3 shop house units, the property features free WiFi, a restaurant and small museum on the ground floor, which used to be a medical hall. 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.

Situated in George Town, 1.4 km from Northam Beach, Eastern & Oriental Hotel features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a fitness centre and a garden. Among the facilities of this property are a restaurant, room service and a 24-hour front desk, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The accommodation offers a concierge service, a tour desk and currency exchange for guests. We loved our stay at E&O! The hotel is beautiful, and everything looks neat, elegant, and classy. The international breakfast at Sarkies was delightful. The room was big and the bed was super comfortable, with great pillows and good temperature control. The fully stocked free mini bar was very handy. The 2 swimming pools were big, very well located and with plenty of sunbeds. The gym is quite basic but with a good array of dumbbells, is not bad for a hotel gym. The staff was always smiling and very welcoming.

A restored 19th century building, Yeng Keng Hotel is located in George Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Penang. It offers an outdoor pool, a restaurant and free Wi-Fi.

Hotel Yeng Keng is located along Chulia Street, 15 minutes on foot from Fort Cornwallis and Khoo Kongsi. Famous food centre, Gurney Drive, is a 10-minute drive away. Colonial vibes all the way. There was a major problem in the city with the water supply, but the hotel was on top of things and didn't affect us in the least. Centrally located, i'm not sure what more we could have wanted
