IndonesiaIt's a confusing hotel to enter as it seems to be a well renovated office into a good hotel.
There are fire doors & safety equipment everywhere and I was happy to see all of their safety & security features.
The entire staff could not have been more helpful & the personal service was lovely. A pod coffee machine, fridge & safe were very welcome. The room was much larger than I expected and very comfortable.
The location was excellent and easy walking to most things.

CanadaStunning hotel. The architecture is beautiful with indoor and outdoor spaces. The infinity pool is lovely with a stunning view. The glasshouse offered excellent food and beverages. The staff were all very professional, helpful and kind. The room itself was huge and beautifully done - modern and classy. Lots of little extras in the room. The bathroom was gorgeous and the shower nice with the rainfall shower head. The location was decent, walkable to many things.

A Palm-Lined Pearl
An island and part of the mainland make up the small Malaysian region of Penang, also known as the ‘pearl of the Orient’. It has long been coveted and the capital Georgetown has many elegant Colonial buildings. The observation deck of the KOMTAR tower – the tallest building – offers spectacular views of the town and surrounding mountains.
A funicular railway goes up to Penang Hill deep in the forest. Nearby Air Itam has one of Asia’s largest Buddhist temples - Kek Lok Si – lit by hundreds of lights at night. Another fantastic temple is Taoist Kong Hock Keong in Georgetown.
Penang Airport is near southern Bayan Lepas, and across the Malacca Strait is Pulau Jerejak, a peaceful island where trees merge into ocean.
In the much livelier north, Batu Feringghi is the largest resort, with lots of Penang hotels on the beach, plenty of bars and a night market. East, green mountains slope down to blue waters at Tanjung Bungah, where several high-rise hotels overlook the palm-lined beach towards the Floating Mosque just offshore.
On the mainland Butterworth is the departure point for ferries to Penang island, and has a bird park housing a large number of Malaysian species. Wherever you decide to stay, Booking.com has a fantastic range of Penang hotels and apartments to choose from.

Very nice rooms. Lots of English speaking channels on the TV. Revisited a lot of old movies I’d forgotten about. Booked a superior double because I had a lot of work to do and the desk was perfect for my Mac, iPad and iPhone with power outlets.
Couple of downsides. I was in room 1423 which is pretty much opposite the rooftop bar and techno versions of mediocre pop tunes was not appreciated at 1:00am! (Bar shuts at 2:00am)
Room service comes about 10:00am which is a bit too early for my liking but the staff were very accommodating and understanding.
10 minute walk to Love Lane so very close to all bars/cafes/restaurants.
Second time staying here and would definitely stay again. Didn’t get a chance to use the pool or gym this time but I will do on my next visit.

I could feel the great nature of Penang in Malihom. Though the location is quite hard to get but when I finally get to Malihom I was totally satisfied with the whole things of Malihom. Facilities, view, and kind managers, private and peaceful atmosphere, nice food… Everything was far better than I expected. I would definitely like to recommend this place to someone who need to be cured from stressful mind.

The staff and management are fabulous, so warm, friendly, and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The seafood night was fabulous, so much good food, but it does get booked up very quickly and we can see why. Fabulous view from our room. Loads of drinking water given to us every day, room was clean and comfortable with lots of amenities daily.

Lot of colonial stuff. In present day world such imperialistic artifacts do no draw the young crowd. They must update their advertising towards non imperialistic setting. Nature stuff like Penang Hill, Penang national park, Moon Gate were excellent. Upside down museum was fun.

Unfortunately, the sea was too rough to swim whilst we were there, we managed to lie on the sand and let the waves wash over us but it was far to dangerous to venture further out. I expect it is beautiful and safer when it is less stormy. The main street has some great places to eat, the place that does roti opposite The Hard Rock Cafe is excellent and there are lots of places to get a massage, we went to one called Paradise (if I remember rightly) which was nice. The night market is also excellent for food, lots of choice and I'd recommend the satay and curries from there.

I stayed one night in Bukit Mertajam and overall, it was a decent short stop. The town has a quiet, local charm and isn’t too busy, which made it quite relaxing. There’s not a whole lot to do, but it’s a good place if you just want to unwind or try some local food—there are definitely some hidden gems when it comes to hawker stalls and small eateries.
That said, it’s not really a tourist-heavy spot, so don’t expect major attractions or much nightlife. It’s more of a laid-back, pass-through kind of town. For one night, it was okay and served its purpose as a quick rest point.

A grounded city and quiet at night. Suitable for those looking peaceful stay and easy to move around. To go to Penang Island, the bridge is 10 minutes away with RM5 plus toll fare. Far more better to take hotels in Butterworth and go to Penang Island

Perai is an Underrated Land to Explore which is a another Option Place to Stay to avoid Massive Traffic in Penang Island. Hotels, Food, Fast Access to Exit the highway and the Shopping Malls are within 5-8mins drive. Obviously money worth it compared to spending so much in our accommodation on the Island.

Lift service was poor and shared with Cleaner and laundry team. Delayed the whole process of the lift service which takes 20 to 30 minutes each wait.
Noisy and the wall too thin. Can hear every movement of the children jumping and their walks running screaming crying till late nights from neighbours.
Toilets are dirty and too small. No closet and plates.

recently stayed at this Airbnb, and unfortunately, the experience was not great. The house is located very close to a mosque, and the loud prayers start at 6 AM daily, which is disruptive if you’re planning to sleep in.
The house is also much smaller than expected for a double-storey unit. The living room is cramped and not ideal for hosting friends. All the rooms are small, and the kitchen is equally compact, so don’t expect much space here.
A major inconvenience is the smart key system, which turns off the electricity when you leave the house. This means you can’t leave any devices charging or keep the air conditioning running while you’re out for lunch or dinner. Plus, there’s no air conditioning in the living room, which makes the space uncomfortable during hot days.
Communication was another issue. The owner does not understand English and only speaks Malay, which made communication uncomfortable for me. On top of that, there is a CCTV camera outside the car porch, and the owner won’t allow you to turn off the modem, so it feels like you’re being constantly monitored. I found this quite unsettling.
Lastly, the water pressure in the toilet is low, which was an additional disappointment.
Overall, this stay was not as expected, and there are better options available for the price.
