Chic & Comfortable Hotel in a UNESCO HERITAGE SITE of Penang
Pros:

The Prestige Hotel Penang is nestled in UNESCO Heritage -listed George Town, the design-led hotel reimagines colonial charm through a contemporary lens - with gleaming brass, striking monochrome geometry, tropical light, and a touch of contemporary & chic ambiance throughout the building.

Our chic & spacious Duplex Loft Suite featured a stunning open-plan bedroom on the mezzanine floor with a sitting area/bath on its first floor.

The daily breakfast at The Glasshouse was excellent with a fantastic & extensive selection of local (Malaysian, Chinese & Indian & continental food), all served in a charming Victorian setting.

I would like to thank ALL THE GUEST EXPERIENCE TEAM & The Concierge especially FAHMIE. He was amazing, friendly, efficient, professional, super helpful and always had a smile with friendly assistance.

Our entire stay from beginning to end was FABULOUS.

Definitely one of the best hotels in Penang.

Parfait pour quelques jours à Penang
Pros:

Le staff est adorable et très bienveillant.
L’emplacement est parfait pour découvrir Georgestown et se ballader à pied (très bon restos à proximité).
La piscine est sympa et chauffée.
Petite salle de sport mais elle fait l’affaire pour une petite séance.
Je conseille à 100%.
