"Great location right by the ocean! You can enjoy the sunrise over the water from both the living room and the master bedroom. The property was very clean and had air conditioning units in every room. It looked exactly like the pictures and was very spacious for the three of us. It is located in a beautiful neighborhood, and the building has 24/7 security, so we felt very safe throughout our stay."

Top Owl Museum Hotel Reviews

JEN Penang Georgetown by Shangri-La

10/10 Excellent

"Room was cleaned. The wall between room to room seems very thin and I can hear people talking from the next room"

Ascott Gurney Penang

8/10 Good

"We had a very pleasant stay overall. For a refurbished property, the room was impressively clean, spacious, and well-maintained. The views were beautiful too—whether facing the city or the sea, both offered a lovely backdrop to our stay. The staff throughout the hotel were warm, helpful, and welcoming, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Their hospitality was genuinely appreciated. We slept very well for most of our stay. However, on our final night, there were recurring loud sounds coming from the water piping system between approximately 1am and 3am. I’m not certain of the cause, but it was noticeable enough to disrupt our sleep. It may be worth having the piping checked. The pool area was pleasant and enjoyable. One small suggestion would be to have staff make occasional rounds to monitor tidiness and safety around the pool. There were quite a few crows around during our visit, and they seemed rather interested in guests’ belongings left on the sunbeds. Breakfast was another highlight—generous in variety and well-prepared. I would happily recommend it, especially for guests looking to avoid the more tourist-oriented prices around the Gurney Drive area while still enjoying a satisfying meal. Overall, it was a great stay with excellent value, comfortable accommodations, and wonderful service. With a little attention to the unusual water piping noise, the experience would have been even better."

Sunshine Residence Suites

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment suite is in a 2-year-old building connected to a shopping mall with food courts, restaurants, a money exchange, and a supermarket. If it's raining, you can get back to the apartment from the mall without going outside — there are dedicated elevators from the mall to the apartment. The building has an outdoor pool, a gym, and a table tennis table on the 9th floor. The gym equipment is well maintained and the pool is always clean. Front desk, cleaning, and security staff are all friendly and helpful, and responded to my inquiries promptly. My suite is air-conditioned and has a fan in every room to help circulate air. It was very clean — no dust or hair on the floor. There's a washer but no dryer; a drying rack is available in the laundry room, and you can also hang laundry on the balcony. The apartment is at least 20 minutes from Georgetown/city core, roughly halfway between the airport and Georgetown. If you like authentic local cuisine and want to eat where locals go, this is a great spot. My only complaint: no venting fan in the washroom and no hood fan in the kitchen, so a hot shower will fog up the bathroom and mirror, and the kitchen is really only good for reheating food — cooking smells just circulate back into the suite instead of venting out."

Eythrope Boutique Villa

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed for 4 days enjoying the kind and thoughtful hospitality provided by Brendan Hamid and Hamada. The recently restored bungalow was fully equipped, very comfortable and had lovely touches like a library of recent books on Penang history its buildings and gardens, flora and fauna. We stayed in a large room on the ground floor which was spotless. The views from the balcony of Georgetown and Butterworth were wonderful. The hotel is very conveniently located close to the Penang Hill funicular station, restaurants and cafes. The Eythrope was an excellent base for an extremely enjoyable relaxed stay on Penang Hill. "
