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. Ren I Tang is different. Firstly it looks more like a warehouse than a hotel! It's not what one would expect from a "normal chain-like" hotel and is staying in a unique time and place. The room is basic and adequate - the bathroom fine. What makes the Ren is its quirkiness and more so, the staff who were superb. The breakfast is really good, and it is a blend of Euro/local products. Samosa's wonderful!

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. very nicely designed rooms with very friendly staff, providing us lots of tips and recommendations on where to go and visit. They are very helpful and can reach out to them easily via whatsapp for questions. they provide little local snacks each night for us to try. one thing i didn't read properly is that there is no TV in the room, but it was fine. we were watching on ipads and just chill in the room

The Millen Penang, Autograph Collection is in Georgetown, just 3 minutes' drive from the New Central Business District. It has spacious suites with free Wi-Fi. On-site facilities include an outdoor saltwater swimming pool, a fitness centre and pampering spa treatments. From start to finish, everything was perfect, from the staff on the door, the very capable personnel at reception, the individual floor floors-and-room staff, those at the beautifully maintained pool too, the spacious and tastefully furnished rooms, the bright and airy breakfast room with its attentive service personnel, nothing beyond their capabilities, a welcoming receptionist and chef, both ready and capable of meeting and adapting to every request, all this through to help on the ground floor with directions, weather forecasts, and planning suggestions. Penang is the ultimate winner as The Millen just askd to be re-visted. We'll certainly try. Congratulations to all involved. Thank you.
