    This is one of my favourite places in Penang.

    This is one of my favourite places in Penang. There are many interesting sights to see, and the local cuisine is amazing. I will definitely visit again. People in Penang are very helpful and friendly. The services rendered by some of the shops in Penang were awesome.

    Charming city with a long history.

    Charming city with a long history. The local food is amazing! Try the hawker stalls, local nyonya food/ restaurants. But if you want something fancier like modern western food, there are many new restaurants opened by the younger generation. Lots of coffee cafes operated by young people and they are great! It is easy to get around Penang in a Grab, and cheap too. Spend 1/2 day in Penang Hill - take the train up. Its only 4.5 min over a 2 km steep climb. The visit is worth it.

    Georgetown was delightful. Full of old-world Asian charm. The street food was amazing. If you like pristine places, I would recommend Singapore. We preferred Penang Island to Singapore as there weren't as many cameras and rules mind you.

    The two large historic mansions - Cheong Fatt Tze and the

    The two large historic mansions - Cheong Fatt Tze and the Pinang Peranakan Mansion - are fabulous, especially the former, also known as the Blue Mansion. Plenty of information about the history of Penang as well as some really beautiful artefacts to look at. The Penang War Museum was also well worth the excursion - it's huge and also full of historical information about the various conflicts that have affected the area, but particularly the occupation by the Japanese in the second world war, all set within the amazing fortifications built by the British. The old town of Penang is interesting to wander around - but beware, it was hot season and there is very little shade to be found. I really wish I'd had an umbrella as well as my hat and long trousers and long sleeves. There is a really strong emphasis on street food here and it is of varying quality. A long queue doesn not necessarily indicate this is a good restaurant - it just means that it's been featured by someone online. So look at the food yourself and judge your own instincts if you think something looks worth trying. Auntie Gaek Leen's restaurant was the most interesting we tried - really lovely food.

    Get up the hill on foot to see monkeys.

    Get up the hill on foot to see monkeys. Anything else is a waste of money. Yet another british colonial style city. Just wonder around for cafes and get to your next destination. Know that for the ferry they strictly enforce an illegitimate NO CASH policy. After discussing 20 min I was given a useless local RFID transport card for 22 myr instead of the 4 myr needed for the one way ride. Do yourself a favour and get there with a Grab by the bridge to avoid this very low level treatment and queues to board the ferry among plentiful indian families.

    The staff team were incredibly attentive and friendly. The accommodation (3-bed house over the road from the main hotel) was amazing and incredibly spacious. It has large and comfortable bedrooms with A/C in all. A large living space with excellent kitchen facilities. Breakfast was okay. The hotel restaurant serves really delicious Italian food and is well worth a visit to mix up your dining experience. Central location is excellent for exploring everything George Town has to offer.

    We have been traveling around Malaysia for 2 weeks, and this was the best hotel of all. The staff is friendly and helpful. They gave us a lot of information about the city, places to visit, and even a list of vegetarian restaurants :) The place is amazing. Restored old Chinese house from 1800, the atmosphere is relaxed with beautiful decoration. You have everything you need in your room plus, the bed is super comfy. We will come back for sure!
