This was the highlight of our three-night stay in George Town, Penang. You can tell the care that went into restoring and maintaining this beautiful, historic property. The staff are top notch, from the friendly main entrance guard who always greeted us with a smile whenever we entered and exited the property to the helpful front desk staff, cleaning staff, and many more. We loved our room, the Mandarin, and the little touches from the decor to the complimentary daily treats and drink cartons. The pool with a switch to turn on the jacuzzi, and garden are lovely as well, and the breakfast buffet had a good variety of food. We joined one of the 3:30 pm tours led by Sally who was informative and entertaining as she explained the history and design of the mansion. Highly recommend anyone visiting George Town to stay here, and if we were to ever return to the city, we would jump at the chance to stay here again.

    “As a guest, we were really pampered and prioritised. The architecture was stunning, the room was clean and spacious, and the activities were enjoyable. No complaints if you're looking for a bit of a luxurious stay.”

    “This was my first time to Penang and this unique historical setting took me back in time as well as to a new country. The elegance and beauty were beyond expectations. You could get carried away with the surroundings but what is the quality of the stay? Well it is equally amazing. From the man that welcomes you at the gate with a beautiful smile to the reception staff, who will help with anything you request. (In my case sending postcards back home.) The rooms are clean and so many little thoughtful ideas are added. (Thanks to the efforts of Hoque) The daily turn down service was unique each evening. At breakfast we were treated like guests to their home by Jalal and his colleagues. In the evening enjoy a drink from Shobor who is great behind the bar. This hotel is unique in making you feel like you are at home. This is maybe because it was a home in the past. But the current custodians are welcoming guests on a phenomenal level. I would like to end with the queen of the house. Ginger the cat who is an absolute delight to see roaming and ruling her house. I will be returning .”

  • erg mooi hotel, wat meteen het mooiste museum in George Town is.

    “Это место где живёт душа настоящего Пенанга, это история, архитектурная эстетика, торжество геомантики, , великолепный дизайн и ода Шинуазри Каждый день туда стоят очереди и это того стоит В первый раз не попали сюда из за солдата, во второй раз попали на несколько часов и полностью очарованы этим местом В ресторане подаётся ужин от шефа, обязательно попробуйте В отеле ведутся экскурсии но они не мешают и не проходят в жилой части Это великолепное место, если вы приезжаете в Пенанг то обязательно к посещению”

  • Very satisfied according to our expectations

    “La chambre est tout simplement superbe, nous avons l'impression de dormir dans un musée. De part son coté musée et ouvert au visites extérieures cela peut peut-etre géner la tranquilité même si la partie guest est normalement pas accessible. Le petit déjeuner est un peu limite par rapport au standing de l'établissement, pas de viennoiseries, pas grande variètè de pain, pas grand choix de fruit frais”
