The Prestige Hotel Penang

The Prestige Hotel Penang

10/10 Excellent
"Truly excellent hotel with the most caring and attentive staff. Sleek and stylish building with an excellent saltwater rooftop pool with great views across the Melacca Strait. Rooms are of a very high standard with excellent bed and bedding. The restaurant is truly excellent and breakfast served by Ayie in particular, is of the highest standard with great choices for all guests. The spa is also excellent and great value for the wide range of treatments offered. We had the full massage and afternoon tea package which made our day truly memorable."
