Noordin Mews is a boutique hotel housed in a historical building in central Penang. It offers an outdoor pool and provides free Wi-Fi throughout the building.

Noordin Mews is situated a 5-minute walk from Komtar and 1st Avenue. Heritage Area is a 10-minute walk from the hotel while Gurney Drive is a 15-minute drive away. The entire staff is great and the place feels extremely comfortable and warm like a house. The service is spectacular and we really loved the turn down service each day - because it came with a surprise treat from a local shop or bakery & so very well curated. Each day was something different! Even their breakfast spread is good. The rooms are fantastic & heritage and the entire property is beautiful. A hundred percent recommend.

Featuring spacious suites with free Wi-Fi, it an art gallery and its own coffee museum. We loved the antique feeling of the room, was very clean and convenient to walk to malls nearby. Service was exceptional, shoutout to Judy for making us feel right at home. Cats were very cute and didn't scratch at all. Room was very unique, with wooden floors and the Nyonya feeling. Very clean and very good location. Breakfast had a great variety and service at the cafe was also good.

The Millen Penang, Autograph Collection is in Georgetown, just 3 minutes' drive from the New Central Business District. It has spacious suites with free Wi-Fi. On-site facilities include an outdoor saltwater swimming pool, a fitness centre and pampering spa treatments. We booked a sea-view room, and the front desk kindly upgraded us to a higher floor — the view was absolutely stunning! Especially the bathtub facing the ocean — it was breathtaking! We mentioned to the front desk that we were here to celebrate a birthday, and that night, we received a surprise of two cakes from the hotel — such a thoughtful gesture! The room design was beautiful and elegant, with a long, spacious bathroom featuring two sinks, a bathtub, a rain shower, and a toilet. The front desk service was exceptionally attentive, always greeting us with warm smiles. The concierge team was also very helpful — they noticed our luggage, were always ready to assist, and even asked if we needed help bringing it down to the car park when we were leaving. The security staff were wonderful too. Overall, it was a truly gorgeous sea-view stay, and we will definitely be back next time!
