A delightful stay in the heart of old town. Each room is a unique individual creation with vintage furnishings. The breakfast is amazing and the staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Everyday the chef creates a special desert and delivers it to each of the twelve boutique rooms. A must stay if you are going to Georgetown, Malaysia.

Beautiful boutique hotel

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful and cozy hotel. The staff is phenomenal and each person made us feel welcomed. The breakfast was delicious giving us the energy we needed for long days of touring the city. A special treat was coming back and having a dessert left in the fridge for us to enjoy before settling in for the night. And we got so many wonderful recommendations for sightseeing and restaurants to check out. This place is truly a gem and I’d be thrilled to have a second stay on our next trip to Penang!

Hotel location is FOODIE’S dream.

Location is EXCELLENT for foodies to Penang! Lots of great food choices within short walking distance or even on the same block. Many Michelin mentioned food stalls and restaurants near by. This hotel is a 100+ year old home turned into boutique hotel that services like a normal hotel. If you like history and antiques this would be heaven for you. Showers and beds are excellent. Daily afternoon treat and freshment drink to your room! We are avid travelers who are fairly picky and we would recommend this hotel to our friends.
