Ascott Gurney Penang is a fantastic place to stay. The rooms are clean and very comfortable, the staff are friendly, and the facilities are well-maintained. The breakfast is good and the location is super convenient — near malls, restaurants, and the seafront. Really enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back!

Location was great, just a short casual walk to both Gurney Paragon and Gurney Plaza, with nice eateries along the way. Nice swimming pool and 24 hours gym. It’s great that a 24 hours supermarket is located just at the side of the hotel. Doorman and concierge were courteous. If they had provided bottled water, it will be better.

Love the stay and staffs are all friendly! Room was so spacious! Will definitely come back for a stay. Just a small drawback which was the noise for my second morning, I complained about it and hotel mentioned was the mall beside and they can’t do anything plus it was a Sunday! Our friends who were staying in higher floor (30+) didn’t hear that, our floor located at 20 stg so maybe it depends on luck?
