8/10 Very good
21 Jul 2024
This boutique hotel is located in the heart of Penang’s Little India district of historic Georgetown. An easy 10 minute walk from the Ferry Terminal and minutes from the Light Street bus stops, this inn is a great base for those who want to explore Georgetown and Penang via walking and public transport. The property is tastefully converted old Chinese medicine shop with rooms above the ground floor bistro and coffee shop, where breakfast is served. The breakfast dishes are prepared by the lovely proprietors and consist of fresh fruit, continental pastries and a variety of Chinese and Malaysian treats like dumplings, roti etc. While the hotel may lack some of the amenities of the traditional 5 star luxury places (no pool or spa), it’s location and pricing make it a great base for budget conscious travellers who want to experience Georgetown and surrounds.
