Tony’s Guesthouse at Teluk Bahang in Batu Ferringhi provides adults-only accommodation with a garden and a terrace. This guest house provides free private parking, a shared kitchen and free WiFi. When staying at the guest house, guests can use private entrance. I'm having great time here. Absolutely great place to rest and immerse yourself into thinking about stuff you want to think. Kitchen for cooking food you like, bicycles, hammocks for chilling, that comfortable chair in the yard under the tree surrounded by quietness... P.S. haha, that fat cat is amazing

The property features city views and is 400 metres from Wonderfood Museum and 1.5 km from 1st Avenue Penang. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen and a housekeeping service for guests. The staff is one of the most amazing and caring that I have seen. Super friendly, attentive and trying to help and make sure you are comfortable. They shared details on what to see in the city, detailed instruction how to reach the room, were very friendly and polite all the time, allow to bring a bag before the check in and leave after check-out, provided earplugs and dental kit. Wifi is good, room is good, location is perfect, close to all the main attractions in Georgetown. Overall, amazing experience and the staff are just the best, thanks a lot! :)

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. The hospitality was undescribable. It really felt like being at home. Every day the breakfast is different wonders of traditional food to explore. And snacks are provided during the day. Every day you are inspired by the staff to explore different sights in the town that you would not have known of. This is the best experience I have had ever during my time of traveling. Just go here and try for your selves. The "boss" is a Garfield cat and he is great❤️

Located in George Town and only 70 metres from Tanjung Bungah Beach, Sea Lion by the beach provides accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay. Every room has a patio with garden views. We had an amazing time at Sea Lion. Not only were the hosts friendly and made us feel at home, but the house itself was very clean, and had everything we needed. Birdy (the resident cat) was also very sweet. The location was nice and quiet, being a bit out of town (but only a 20-40 minute bus ride away, depending on traffic). There were quite a few popular restaurant areas near the house. Great place to stay, would 10/10 recommend!
