Seven Terraces 4 stars

George Town

Located in the capital city of Penang, Seven Terraces is only within a 5-minute walk to the significant Goddess of Mercy Temple and the popular Penang Peranakan Mansion.

The property is just a 10-minute walk from Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, Penang Museum and the large Chinese clan house of Khoo Kongsi. Penang International Airport is a convenient 30-minute drive away. The location close to Little India is fantastic. The restored historic building just amazing - with little hidden doorways and rooms everywhere. And the tranquil pool to retreat to in the hot afternoons was a delight.

Le Dream Boutique Hotel 4 stars

George Town

Located in Georgetown, Le Dream Boutique Hotel offers modern accommodation with free WiFi access.

Le Dream Boutique Hotel is 150 metres from Upside Down Museum and Dark Mansion - 3D Glow In The Dark Museum. Komtar is 700 metres away and the nearest airport is Penang International Airport, a 17 km drive. The hotel had everything you need - starting from an extremely helpful staff, who gave us some tips on places to go and see, through great customer experience, amenities. Plenty of tiny things that seem insignificant at first, but combined make the stay a full 10/10
