Testimonials

I would definitely recommend this hotel to a friend who wanted something basic, clean and charming without the luxury of high priced hotels. I would also definitely return and stay again. If you're looking for a cheap place to stay that's still comfortable and clean - THIS IS IT!

Even it is not a five star hotel yet i been treated like a real five star guest. The warmth and kindness that they have showed to me is really worth it to be here and i will be back again once i came back to Penang for a holiday.

This heritage hotel is handy to George town and the beaches. We appreciated the friendly helpful staff who were very willing to help out with suggestions and advice for getting around.

I stayed there for 3D2N. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room quite big and clean and surrounding was clean and quiet. The room has aircond, tv, hot shower and jug kettle. Located in middle of the town, nearby to Komtar, Gurney Drive, Padang Kota (Esplanade), etc.

I love the scenery of the hotel's heritage building which suited the hotel's name. Seeing is believing. Definitely, I will stay in this hotel in my next visit to Penang.
