The only drawback for some people would be the close proximity to a Mosque so calls to prayer before sunrise and after dark added to the cultural atmosphere but might disturb some people.

Perfect location to explore the historic areas of Georgetown. Only steps from Armenian Street and a few minutes walk to the Clan Jetties. The hotel has a spa feel and the staff were wonderful.

Our room was in the annex and we seemed to have been forgotten about. We had to ask for our tea and coffee to be replenished and whilst the receptionist seemed surprised that housekeeping hadn’t been to our room they didn’t come the next day (our last) either!

The location was perfect as a base from which to explore the old town. Lots of restaurants and shops near by and just a short walk to Love Lane.

Mosque nearby was very loud. Wifi in annexe was awful - only half hearted attempt to fix. Wifi was exellent in the main building but inconvenient as we had a room in the annexe. Restaurant in annexe was sometimes noisy late into the evening (probably not a problem in main building).

Unlimited supply of water, tea and coffee. Nicely decorated rooms. Walking distance to many places to eat and see.

Although we booked a superior double room we were given one on the road side which was very noisy not only from the (already mentioned many times!!) mosques!! but also with late night traffic and building works. We were disappointed with this as we were hoping for one on the other side of the corridor which was a larger room with doors that led to a small terrace with table and chairs. ( Which most of the photos show) This would also have been quieter. Especially as we were staying 4 nights. If I could be sure of getting one of these back rooms I would definitely recommend and stay again. If not I would be doubtful, which is a shame as overall it is very lovely and unusual in its design.

Hotel decor and architectural design was lovely. Very attractive. Free (decent) coffee was appreciated. Excellent location for sights and restaurants/cafes.

We liked it all.

We loved this place. Clean, so much character, perfect location. Our room was large and we loved the separate room in the lower level. The sitting areas outside our room and at reception were inviting. We loved having refillable cold water to fill up our bottles. We even enjoyed the call to prayer from the next door mosque at 6:30am, better than an alarm to get us started on our day.

The hotel is located very near a mosque. We were awakened daily at 5am, 610am, and 625am by the mosque (calls for prayers). I think there is nothing the hotel can do about this though... I noticed that there are a few mosques in Georgetown. In other words, it is hard to avoid such noise disturbance. Sigh...

The hotel is located in a strategic location. It is easy to walk to most of the tourist attractions. It is converted from an old two-story townhouse. Our room is located on the second floor.

Stairs. You have to climb the stairs to get to your room. if you bring old parents, it will cause a problem. Will be okay for adults. The location of the room is bit confusing if its your first time. Luckily the receptionist assisted ur to our room. The toilet has a stinky smell at night.

A lot of ootd spots. Hotel was clean. Bed was comfortable. Air pressure okay. Nice ambience. This hotel give u the old town Penang vibe. Its situated in the Penang street art so its walking distance to nearby tours attractions. Has a common place to hang out if you domt want to lepak in room.

Our bedroom sink was outside of the washroom/toilet.

Most important for me is the cleanliness of the washroom/toilet. The room as well clean eventhough it is smaller yet comfortable.

No fridge, flooring on the loft was creaky.

It's very close to the Mosque, so be prepared for call to prayer staircase only - very narrow in annex building, so would not work well if you have heavy cases or mobility issues

Great location, staff polite, very good value for money. Was able to leave a bag with them while I went out after checkout time

As others have said this hotel is next door to a Mosque with call to prayer 4 times a day including very early morning and it sounds like it’s actually in your room . You will be woken up . Downstairs of family loft room very small - little space for luggage and upstairs steep if you have heavy bags. Fridge in room would be nice.

Great location for exploring Georgetown on foot and helpfull staff

It wasn't so cool to wake up during the night as the hotel just behind the mosque) But you have to accept it when travelling to the Muslim country.

The hotel is exactly in the center of the town, everything is near by. The building is just how i like it - historical, well kept, with a great decoration and style.
