FAQs about hotels in Penang
A Palm-Lined Pearl
An island and part of the mainland make up the small Malaysian region of Penang, also known as the ‘pearl of the Orient’. It has long been coveted and the capital Georgetown has many elegant Colonial buildings. The observation deck of the KOMTAR tower – the tallest building – offers spectacular views of the town and surrounding mountains.
A funicular railway goes up to Penang Hill deep in the forest. Nearby Air Itam has one of Asia’s largest Buddhist temples - Kek Lok Si – lit by hundreds of lights at night. Another fantastic temple is Taoist Kong Hock Keong in Georgetown.
Penang Airport is near southern Bayan Lepas, and across the Malacca Strait is Pulau Jerejak, a peaceful island where trees merge into ocean.
In the much livelier north, Batu Feringghi is the largest resort, with lots of Penang hotels on the beach, plenty of bars and a night market. East, green mountains slope down to blue waters at Tanjung Bungah, where several high-rise hotels overlook the palm-lined beach towards the Floating Mosque just offshore.
On the mainland Butterworth is the departure point for ferries to Penang island, and has a bird park housing a large number of Malaysian species. Wherever you decide to stay, Booking.com has a fantastic range of Penang hotels and apartments to choose from.

- From $184.91 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.5Very Good - What previous guests thought, 3,599 reviewsThe room was big and catered for the 4 in my family. Very good use of one double deck bed and that freed up space. A small "dinning" table of sorts would be a perfect addition. The rooms were clean and in good condition. The breakfast was good with a good spread. Seating was comfortable and there was food even when the crowd was heavy! The service staff from the doorman, receptionist, service staff at breakfast; housekeeping to the Managers were great. We had a wonderful experience and would definitely stay in the hotel again! Thank you all.Guest review byVijayalakshmiSingapore
- From $111.34 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.6Excellent - What previous guests thought, 2,541 reviewsEverything is amazing. The room is absolutely huge, a suite with everything so beautifully decorated. There is a pool in my suite but also a huge pool on the eighth floor with a spa, gym and kid facility there too. Breakfast is a huge buffet with interesting Malay foods as well as standard Western food. A number of interesting restaurants and special dinners. The staff could not be better. Courteous, caring efficient, charming. Best bang for your buck especially with the favorable exchange rate. Bahrain is a nightmare with their exchange rateGuest review byAlexisUnited Kingdom

Loved the clan houses and shop houses. The Jetty is a good hawker centre for food. Don't bother with Fort Cornwallis. Must see the Peranakan Mansion Museum. Must see Kek Lok Si temple - Easy to get to by busGuest review byMcKeownUnited Kingdom - 10

Batu Ferringhi, is a great place for a relaxing holiday in the warm. The food in Penang is the big drawcard. It is great for chilling out and leaving the stress behind. The Night Markets are also great. Best of all is Long Beach Cafe, which is a market place which opens in the evening and has the best food, cheap as chips. Great restaurants everywhere. Dont forget to go to Ferringhi Walk and Bora Bora for Dinner. Food, Glorious Food.Guest review byStephenAustralia - 8.0

I stayed one night in Bukit Mertajam and overall, it was a decent short stop. The town has a quiet, local charm and isn’t too busy, which made it quite relaxing. There’s not a whole lot to do, but it’s a good place if you just want to unwind or try some local food—there are definitely some hidden gems when it comes to hawker stalls and small eateries. That said, it’s not really a tourist-heavy spot, so don’t expect major attractions or much nightlife. It’s more of a laid-back, pass-through kind of town. For one night, it was okay and served its purpose as a quick rest point.Guest review byKitsonLMalaysia - 6.0
What I liked:
What I liked: The hotel was clean, the staff were friendly, and the location was convenient for getting around. What wasn’t the best: We stayed in a triple room, and the bathroom only had a single sliding door, which offered very little privacy. This setup felt unsuitable for multiple guests and made the stay a bit uncomfortable.Guest review byPunithevathiMalaysia - 8.0

Perai is an Underrated Land to Explore which is a another Option Place to Stay to avoid Massive Traffic in Penang Island. Hotels, Food, Fast Access to Exit the highway and the Shopping Malls are within 5-8mins drive.

Lift service was poor and shared with Cleaner and laundry team. Delayed the whole process of the lift service which takes 20 to 30 minutes each wait. Noisy and the wall too thin. Can hear every movement of the children jumping and their walks running screaming crying till late nights from neighbours. Toilets are dirty and too small. No closet and plates.Guest review byAzuraMalaysia - 10

Nice place. Comfortable. No big city rush, but many new shops & eateries. Good food, quite cheap. Friendly people. Got lots to explore, including the parks. Also not too far from Penang & Kedah, just nicely in between.Guest review bySherinaMalaysia - 6.0

I like it because it is away from the traffic of Georgetown on the one side and from touristic Batu Ferringhi on the other. A handful of decent restaurants supplement the many informal local huts, giving all levels of cost and quality for variable dining. All the local folk are courteous and kindly, though English is universally poor to incomprehensible. Excellent modern buses connect with Georgetown etc. on a frequent, low-cost service. Car hire is not expensive and a liberating device for island discovery. Pop-up Fruit stalls abound for an exotic breakfast in your hotel room or on the beach. Meridien Hotel has the cleanest beach!Guest review byVictorUnited Kingdom - 2.0
recently stayed at this Airbnb, and unfortunately, the...
recently stayed at this Airbnb, and unfortunately, the experience was not great. The house is located very close to a mosque, and the loud prayers start at 6 AM daily, which is disruptive if you’re planning to sleep in. The house is also much smaller than expected for a double-storey unit. The living room is cramped and not ideal for hosting friends. All the rooms are small, and the kitchen is equally compact, so don’t expect much space here. A major inconvenience is the smart key system, which turns off the electricity when you leave the house. This means you can’t leave any devices charging or keep the air conditioning running while you’re out for lunch or dinner. Plus, there’s no air conditioning in the living room, which makes the space uncomfortable during hot days. Communication was another issue. The owner does not understand English and only speaks Malay, which made communication uncomfortable for me. On top of that, there is a CCTV camera outside the car porch, and the owner won’t allow you to turn off the modem, so it feels like you’re being constantly monitored. I found this quite unsettling. Lastly, the water pressure in the toilet is low, which was an additional disappointment. Overall, this stay was not as expected, and there are better options available for the price.Guest review byandythewangMalaysia
