Great location, easily walkable to various tourist spots/local destinations for food, leisure, shops etc. There’s also a ban heang conveniently located across the hotel (5 minutes walk). Those who are into clubs, there’s also one just downstairs the hotel - midnight black.
Response from Property: Thank you for your wonderful review. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed our prime location, which provides easy access to local attractions, dining, and shopping. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to welcoming you again in the future.

First time here, even though corridors outside the room were quite narrow, everything else was okay. A minus point would be The sound proofing isnt that great, you can hear your neighbours TV and people walking outside. so if you need a quiet good rest i’d suggest getting the higher tiered room. Free drinks and snacks in a clean tidy room. Everything you could ask for in a hotel. Will come back again.

Perfect location right smack in the middle of town opp Line Clear Nasi Kandar. Beautiful interior and tasteful design. However, staff was not as hospitable and warm as I expected. Before going to bed, to my horror, I discovered some stains on the bedsheet. Didn't want to bring up to staff as it was already late. Hope they changed the sheets after every guest.

The hotel had a relaxing atmosphere with a serene pool area. I loved unwinding at the gym after a long day. Good location with walking distance to food places. But, check in & check out is slow. Breakfast not to suggest to taken because no variety food.. just so so only. Room it was cleans and stylist. Staff not friendly 😅🌸😃🏩

The service was great. Arrived in Penang late around mid-night. The front desk was manned with a receptionist to handle our check in. Everything was seamless. However, I was not aware of the UNESCO charges before arriving in the hotel, had to pay RM39 for it. Pool was quite cold when we wanted to use it due to the rainy days.
Response from Property: Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear that your check-in experience was seamless, even at midnight. We apologize for any confusion regarding the UNESCO charges; we will work on improving our communication about this to ensure guests are fully informed prior to arrival.We understand that the pool temperature can be affected by the weather, and we appreciate your patience. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts, and we hope to welcome you back for an even better experience!

Our stay at The George Penang was excellent! The room was spacious, clean, and well-maintained. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and the staff were friendly and quick to assist when we had minor issues with the lightbulb and TV. The hotel’s central location is a huge plus, with plenty of food stalls, restaurants, and tourist attractions within walking distance. The only downside was the pool—it’s in a covered area, unheated, and too cold for my daughter to swim. Overall, we were very pleased and will definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

Everything is fine. You just need to be very careful if you use the swimming pool. The day when I my wife was swimming, the chlorine level was too high & caused allergies. Already reflected to the front office.
