Pet friendly hotels in Penang, Malaysia

Found this gem of a place by accident. With many hotels increasing rates during the festive season I managed to book a room here for a price I thought was way below the average for a 3 room unit. Of course my expectations were not much BUT when I arrived I was pleasantly surprised - what I say a “bang for your buck” - it was near one of the busiest shopping complexes and close to highways which was a breeze until u hit town (obviously). My room even had a sea view. It’s tucked away outside the busy streets and to me it gave me the extra quietness and calm I needed after a long drive. I hit the pool and tried the gym - not a big gym but “it’s all there”. This is what I noticed : bus station and airport was in my opinion nearby (no more than a 20min grab ride) In short you can’t fault this property for the price you’re paying. I will be back! Tq for making the stay memorable.

This loft in the city center is relatively decent. It's perfectly located for all the attractions. The airport bus stop is just a 10-minute walk from the hotel. There are two large shopping malls nearby. A big thank you to the staff for letting us check in early. The bed linen was soft and the air conditioning worked perfectly. Shampoo and shower gel were provided for free. There's a water cooler (hot/cold) on the floor. The fridge worked great, and there was also a kettle and toaster in the room. As for the downsides: The cleanliness of the room was so-so – dusty, with a somewhat worn-out renovation, and some noticeable dirt stains in places. The shower only had lukewarm water. There were no face towels. One of the bath towels had a stain. There were ants running around near the fridge, seemingly knowing where the food was, so make sure to put all your food straight into the fridge. I left a biscuit on the table and ants swarmed it. There are no double-glazed windows, and since our room faced the street, we could hear passing cars perfectly. It's tolerable for a night or two, but not for any longer.

This beachfront gem offers breathtaking sea views right from your window. Just a few minutes' walk away is a charming little beach that's an absolute must-see. Falling asleep to the sound of waves all night long was incredibly therapeutic – 10/10 for healing! I highly recommend it 🌊. The cleanliness was impeccable, the room was spacious, the bedding was soft, and the facilities were complete. The host was warm and thoughtful, providing us with plenty of local tips. The overall ambiance of the place was fantastic, perfect for stunning photos. It's quiet and peaceful, making it the ideal choice for a relaxing vacation. You can book with confidence – you won't be disappointed! A taxi to Cenang Beach only costs a few dollars, but walking might be challenging due to the winding mountain roads and fast-moving traffic. If you're taking a taxi to Cenang, I suggest getting dropped off at the FamilyMart supermarket where you can stock up on essentials. Just 20 meters straight ahead from there is another beach. About 500 meters from the property, you'll find beachfront restaurants with lively evening performances and delicious food – not to be missed!

The place was clean and big, super comfortable for our family of 10. Parking was sufficient for our two cars and the owner was responsive to our messages. Check in was breezy and the house was located strategically in the middle of Georgetown. Overall a great place to stay in Penang.

Traveling to Penang makes it more convenient and easy. The homestay is overall good 👍. Only the water heater in one room needs to be repaired.
