Located within the UNESCO World Heritage Site of George Town, Ren I Tang Heritage Inn is located in a restored building from the 1800s. Spanning an area of 3 shop house units, the property features free WiFi, a restaurant and small museum on the ground floor, which used to be a medical hall. The breakfast was amazing with fresh local fruit and specialties. The staff was very kind and understanding (especially in light of our late arrival). The location is in the middle of GeorgeTown (and could not be more centrally located with nearby attractions all within walking distance). There's even a decent sized grocery store across the street if needed. The interior of the hotel is a renovated historic shop/warehouse and is full of charm. Highly recommended.

Housed in a Chinese courtyard-style mansion, The Blue Mansion offers boutique accommodation tastefully furnished with antique fittings. Featuring a library and free parking, it is located within Georgetown’s UNESCO district.

Individually designed rooms are fitted with classic wood furnishings and air conditioning. They have a safe, hairdryer and tea/coffee maker. We loved this placed - it's beautiful, the staff is warm, the breakfast is served in the original courtyard of the family's mansion, and you're surrounded by history at all times during your stay!

Situated in George Town, 2.3 km from Northam Beach and 500 metres from 1st Avenue Penang, My Guesthouse 109 - SELF CHECK IN features accommodation with free WiFi, air conditioning, free bikes and a shared lounge. It is located less than 1 km from Rainbow Skywalk at Komtar and offers private check-in and check-out. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen and luggage storage space for guests. Laid back, clean, and full of very sweet and sociable cats! I love the way the space is decorated and the room itself had everything I needed to have a comfortable stay. Other guests were quiet and generally kept to themselves but also were very kind in the brief interactions I had. If you love cats I highly recommend :)

Noordin Mews is a boutique hotel housed in a historical building in central Penang. It offers an outdoor pool and provides free Wi-Fi throughout the building.

Noordin Mews is situated a 5-minute walk from Komtar and 1st Avenue. Heritage Area is a 10-minute walk from the hotel while Gurney Drive is a 15-minute drive away. We loved the old-world charm of the place. The breakfast was tasty and had an Asian option that changed daily. The staff were all consistently kind, attentive, and helpful. We brought our small dog along for the trip and she was made to feel welcome and cared for. We loved it so much we booked another stay while we were still there.

Featuring spacious suites with free Wi-Fi, it an art gallery and its own coffee museum. We loved the antique feeling of the room, was very clean and convenient to walk to malls nearby. Service was exceptional, shoutout to Judy for making us feel right at home. Cats were very cute and didn't scratch at all. Room was very unique, with wooden floors and the Nyonya feeling. Very clean and very good location. Breakfast had a great variety and service at the cafe was also good.
