The hotel was very clean and the breakfast very delicious. It's not right in the center of the old city, but close enough to walk everything. The interior is beautifully designed and combined thus providing for a very comfy stay. Nothing much to complain about :)

The location was great for old and new Georgetown, the rooms were good and clean. The breakfast was good and the staff were excellent. I had the misfortune to fall down a drain whilst in Penang, this caused sickness and major bruising. The staff were excellent showing concern and offered to send me to a clinic. The staff remember you name to greet you in your return to the hotel which is a nice touch.
There could have been more than just beer or wine as a choice with dinner. No other alcohol was stocked
