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. We liked everything, but above all the friendly and attentive staff

Located in George Town, 2.4 km from Northam Beach, Cocoa Mews Cafe and Homestay provides accommodation with a shared lounge, free WiFi and a shared kitchen. The property is around 2 km from Penang Times Square, 8.2 km from Straits Quay and 8.2 km from Penang Botanic Gardens. Penang Hill is 9.4 km from the guest house and Queensbay Mall is 12 km away. Howie and Awit (if I spelt it right!)welcome their guests genuinely, you can feel their passion while they're showing you around. They give you advices to visit the surrounding area , tell you which bus to get and places where to eat great local food. In the morning, Howie always cooks amazing home-made breakfast, he provides free water, juice, coffee + milk, teas.. You won't feel hungry or thirsty in the house as there will always be something to eat and he's very proud of it. Room wasn't big, but enough for 2 ppl. It didn't have a window but with a/c you don't really need it. It was perfect for us and enjoyed the comfy mattress and pillows!!! Thank you so much, Howie!!!
