Located within the UNESCO World Heritage Site of George Town, Ren I Tang Heritage Inn is located in a restored building from the 1800s. Spanning an area of 3 shop house units, the property features free WiFi, a restaurant and small museum on the ground floor, which used to be a medical hall. Lovely heritage inn, right in the heart of Little India, steps away from all attractions in the centre. And huge bonus is the bistro, super breakfast but also open for meals at other times. .

Situated in George Town, 1.4 km from Northam Beach, Eastern & Oriental Hotel features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a fitness centre and a garden. Among the facilities of this property are a restaurant, room service and a 24-hour front desk, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The accommodation offers a concierge service, a tour desk and currency exchange for guests. I had 2 suites in separate wings. The staff showed me both rooms in 30mins themselves. The location is so good, just on the shore with the town at its back. The staff also gave me 3 days of complimentary lounge access since only 1 of my suites had it already but we were a family so they gave us all access.

Situated in George Town, 2.3 km from Northam Beach and 500 metres from 1st Avenue Penang, My Guesthouse 109 - SELF CHECK IN features accommodation with free WiFi, air conditioning, free bikes and a shared lounge. It is located less than 1 km from Rainbow Skywalk at Komtar and offers private check-in and check-out. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and luggage storage space for guests. I just loved everything about my stay. My room was spacious and very comfortable. The bathroom is clean and the location very convenient. You can just love the cats. They are so cute - they even come to your room if you want to. I lost my heart to the baby kitten outside in the backyard.

Set in a restored private mansion, East Indies Mansion is located in the heart of UNESCO World Heritage Site of George Town. Inspired by Chinese shophouses, the property features a large courtyard and classic wall ornaments. Free WiFi is accessible throughout. Can't recommend this highly enough. This place has so much character and is so beautifully decorated, you really feel like you're staying in a historic house. The staff are lovely and so helpful. The location is great and easy to get around either walking or a short drive away. Breakfast was good with continental one day and dim sum another. We stayed in Clove 1 and 2 which are interconnecting rooms, very spacious and spotless.

Located in the capital city of Penang, Seven Terraces is only within a 5-minute walk to the significant Goddess of Mercy Temple and the popular Penang Peranakan Mansion.

The property is just a 10-minute walk from Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, Penang Museum and the large Chinese clan house of Khoo Kongsi. Penang International Airport is a convenient 30-minute drive away. Had a lovely stay at 7 terraces. It's in a nice location to walk around Georgetown. The room was beautifully restored and had all the facilities you'd need - comfy beds and even a nesspreso machine. There is a nice pool area too. The staff were very helpful when we needed a trip to a doctor. They showed great kindness that was very appreciated. We stayed in one of the apartments with 4 adults- there was a double and 2 single beds (upstairs) it was spacious and comfortable with a nice little roof terrace. Sometimes these kinds of places can feel a little stuffy, but not here. The staff were so friendly. It has a lift to the 2nd floor - but be mindful there are steps here and there due to the age of the property.

A restored 19th century building, Yeng Keng Hotel is located in George Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Penang. It offers an outdoor pool, a restaurant and free Wi-Fi.

Hotel Yeng Keng is located along Chulia Street, 15 minutes on foot from Fort Cornwallis and Khoo Kongsi. Famous food centre, Gurney Drive, is a 10-minute drive away. Colonial vibes all the way. There was a major problem in the city with the water supply, but the hotel was on top of things and didn't affect us in the least. Centrally located, i'm not sure what more we could have wanted
