George Town Hotels with Breakfast

What a fantastic accommodation. My husband and I loved the place. The room was spacious,and bed was comfortable. No issue with noise.at all and zero issue with a good night sleep. As this hotel is just newly opened, everything is very new. The service from the team is excellent, helpful and friendly. We love the common areas like the laundry room which also served as a chill out room for a game of pool or some board games. The seating area beside the pool is also a nice place to just relax. I did not try their breakfast so cannot attest to that. If I have to really pick on something, it's that the shower control of the water feels very sensitive and takes a little getting used to to get the right temperature. Water pressure is also not the strongest. However this did not at all affect our experience of this stay. Would come back to this hotel in a heartbeat. ❤️

Positive -have requested for a connecting room， and hotel arranged the connecting room for us. The buffer restaurant got a nice view, but not our room, Negative - we were allocated the room could see the opposite building closely, means other buildings could see us as well. No privacy at all. Rooms getting a bit dated The rubbish bin not clean up every day We haven't been notified there was a short renovation upstairs in the afternoon, we were taking rest at the hotel by that time. The worse is after we come back from dinner, the light at the corridor and in our room all dark. This is the first time I experienced all night off in my hotel room. The manager told me that because we switched off the main switch, and made both rooms light off. Do you think it is possible for us even turn off the corridor light and another room night? In fact, we never turn off the light.

The room was beautifully vintage and spacious, leaving an amazing first impression. However, on the first night, the sheets had stains as pictured, and after reporting it, they were changed the next day. On the morning of the third day, I found what looked like mouse droppings on the balcony floor (pictured in image 4). I recognized them because I used to own hamsters; otherwise, I wouldn't have thought it. But the hotel denied it was mouse droppings, suggesting it might be bird droppings, as they had just disinfected a few days prior. Additionally, at breakfast, a middle-aged female server roughly cleared our plates without asking, making a lot of noise. This contrasted sharply with another younger, seemingly Indian male server who was smiling and polite when offering service. The hotel's response to these issues was just an apology and cleaning the balcony, which felt very perfunctory.

This hotel has a lot of character; it's a historic building that's been renovated, and each room type is unique. However, the hotel overall feels a bit old. The air conditioning in the Strait Eclectic room was very loud, the shower pressure wasn't great, and the shower head holder was difficult to use. The towels and bath towels were also a bit worn. Breakfast was à la carte, quite average with limited options and a so-so taste. The hotel is conveniently located next to a bar street, and there's a night market with food within walking distance.

For our anniversary trip to Penang, I contacted the hotel in advance via email. They arranged anniversary decorations, gifted us a cake, and upgraded our room, which made us feel very cared for and warm. The hotel's location is excellent, right in the heart of George Town, within walking distance to all the nearby attractions. Breakfast was abundant with a wide variety of choices. Upon check-in, we received two 10 MYR vouchers for use within the hotel, which could be combined. We used them for room service, which was very convenient. Choosing The Wembley was the best decision of our Penang trip. I'll definitely choose to stay here again on future visits to Penang and will recommend it to others too.

After seeing many recommendations for this hotel across various platforms, I chose it. It's a Chinese-friendly hotel, which is great because the power outlets are universal and don't require an adapter. The room comes with complimentary bottled water. Although the room isn't large, it's impeccably clean, and the window offers a direct view of the ocean. It's very quiet at night, ensuring a good sleep. There's a large shopping mall right next door with a Watsons, and it's also very close to Durian Street, making it super convenient for enjoying durian.

On a business trip to Penang, I'd stayed here before and chose this hotel again. The location is excellent, about a 30-minute drive from Penang International Airport. There are plenty of restaurants, supermarkets, and shopping malls nearby, and it's not far from the Street Art area. The front desk is on the 20th floor; the staff are friendly, and there's a comfortable business and lounge area. The room amenities are comprehensive and clean. This time, I noticed they added a water dispenser, which is eco-friendly and convenient for guests from different countries, offering warm, hot, and iced water. Breakfast on the 21st floor isn't extensive but decent. There's also a good cafe right opposite the hotel with nice breakfast options. Overall, a great experience. I'll choose this hotel again next time.

The staff were friendly, polite, and generally helpful throughout our stay. The location is also a strong point, with plenty of restaurants and shopping malls nearby, and the Clan Jetties are within walking distance. Unfortunately, the check-in experience left much to be desired. Before arriving, I had emailed the hotel to enquire about an early check-in as we were travelling with elderly family members. I fully understood that this might not be possible due to the peak holiday season, which was perfectly reasonable. Upon arriving around 11am, we were advised to return after 1pm. We came back shortly after 2pm but were informed that our rooms were still not ready. We were prepared to wait until the official check-in time of 3pm, but even then, the rooms were unavailable. We were repeatedly told ”10 more minutes”, only for those 10 minutes to become 30 minutes and then even longer. In the end, we did not receive our rooms until approximately 3:40pm. What made the situation particularly frustrating was seeing guests who arrived after us being checked in ahead of us. The explanation given was that a supervisor needed to inspect the rooms before they could be released. While delays can happen, clearer communication and realistic timelines would have been far more appreciated than being repeatedly asked to wait another 10 minutes. To make matters worse, one of our rooms had pillows and blankets with an unpleasant odour, which raised questions about the room readiness that had caused such a lengthy delay. For guests driving, parking may be challenging as there are only a limited number of parallel parking spaces available. Even for those arriving by taxi or private hire, the drop-off and pick-up process can be somewhat inconvenient. There is also a Heritage Fee payable upon check-in, which was acceptable and clearly communicated. Complimentary coffee and biscuits are available, and water dispensers are conveniently located near the lifts, although bottled water is not provided in the rooms. The check-out process was also slightly unusual, as guests are required to wait for staff confirmation before leaving. Overall, the stay was comfortable and the location was convenient. However, I value hotels that provide a smooth and efficient check-in experience. Delays are understandable, especially during busy periods, but guests deserve honest communication and accurate updates rather than repeated promises of ”10 more minutes.” With better management of the arrival experience, this would have been a much more enjoyable stay.

The price is reasonable for the room. It isn't very large, but there is a table for one piece of luggage. There is no wardrobe. There is a fridge, though it doesn't actually get cold. The bathroom is spacious and clean, with good lighting at the vanity mirror. It uses a key-card slot system; the air conditioning stays nice and cool. You can plug in Thai chargers directly without needing an adapter; USB charging ports are also available. There are power outlets on both sides of the bed—two points on each side. Check-in is at 3:00 PM (Malaysia time). Stayed for one night: July 13–14, 2026.

Totally enjoyed my staycation here! The staff were friendly and accommodating throughout my stay. I loved how cold the air conditioning was, the bed was comfortable, and the room was spacious. The location is also very strategic, with plenty of local food options just a few minutes away. Would definitely stay here again ☺️
