I absolutely loved the architecture - it has a charming cultural vibe, right in the middle of George Town where you can walk to everything. So many nice restaurants around too (but if you're indecisive like me, just message them on WhatsApp, they reply instantly, even to my very random questions... thank you for your patience!). The staff are genuinely the sweetest. Ashan greeted us on the first day with such warmth, and everyone we met was kind, generous, and just really good people. One even showed my dad how to play a local board game - such a sweet moment ❤️✌️ I feel bad I didn’t ask for all your names. I really should have. But to the whole team, thank you so much for making our stay so easy and memorable. You made Penang feel extra special 💕

Good hostel, nice staff. Nice localisation, close to the city center. Cheap, beds very comfortable. Clean.
The air conditioning worked well. The room was secure. It was quiet at night time. I wanted basic comfortable and clean and this hostel fulfilled that brief. It was helpful to have a convenience store and ATM close by. Location was pretty good and taxis are very cheap so moving around is not a problem.
Great location, walking distance to food pharmacy etc, in the heart of city center. The host Nicole was excellent , super responsive and nice.
Cody is a great host. The room was so clean and huge. Love the sea view from the room. Exactly like in the picture. Very convenient location. Nearby a lot of restaurants and grocery. The house was soundproof, i think.. So quiet. Love the swimming pool. Will repeat my stay here.
Exceptional location. Close to the buzzing main street yet still located in a quiet back-street. Well equipped with necessary amenitites , charming decor. Very helpul host with instant reply to all of our questionions. We have also received a small kind gift for chinese new year! Highly suggested !
Excellent coffee, good food, fresh fruits. Exceptional rooms and atmosphere. Very friendly staff. Great location. Central but quiet place.
I stayed in two guesthouse in penang and I wish I could have stayed here for the whole trip. The place is quiet and clean. I had very good sleep there and the host trusts guest's independence, with clear instructions but not restrictions so I feel like at home. The staff (basically the cats) are so friendly. I could stay there and be with them whole day. The duck meat eatery next door is popular among locals and full of people in the morning. A must try. The free bicycle is a plus.
We absolutely loved our stay at Tony’s guest house. Tony is such a kind and generous host. We loved being out in a more quiet part of Penang, it was beautiful. We really appreciated the fresh fruit and use of bikes.
Good value, comfortable stay with a charming and helpful host and little luxuries like coffee and fruit freely available, as well as a washing machine! The guest house was in a more local village, outside of Georgetown -cheap amd available buses meant travel was no issue!
