The host was very kind and welcoming — even waited for us outside when we arrived later than planned. The room was cool and ready with the AC on, which felt so thoughtful. It’s clean, well-kept, and close to the airport, perfect for transit. The mountain air and breeze made the stay even more relaxing.

It is a bungalow built on 1929. Itself is a beautiful building worthy to take many photos. It has best city view and far sea view during day and night! It has best sun rise view. It is inside Penang hill, so a good start for hiking around, to visit nearby bungalows. It provides very good food, so some local people come here by train for just having a meal. It has a very nice owner Raj. Do chat with him, if you can meet him. It has two lovely dogs. Do play with them. It provides many free instance drinks.

Best location for going to multiple tourist locations. Room looks exactly as in the picture. They even provided an extra mattress for my brother and all the extra amenities! Lovely people, oh they also gave us fresh bread, 1st day was coffee bread and the other day was orange bread. Amazing! Highly recommend this to people who are indecisive and have hard time deciding, like me. I went through multiple hotels and home stays and finally decided on this one and I must say, I’m blessed to have stayed here. Thanks to the owners for being so kind and nice. 💕

It was an absolute pleasure to stay here. Housed in a beautifully restored heritage building, this guesthouse seamlessly blends historic charm with modern comfort. The rooms were impeccably clean and exuded comfort, with plush beds ensuring a restful night's sleep. The common areas were equally impressive, with stylish decor and well-appointed kitchen and bathrooms. Despite being open for only two weeks, the owner were incredibly helpful and informative, offering valuable tips for exploring the area. Located in the heart of George Town, the guesthouse is conveniently situated within walking distance of numerous restaurants, cafes, and attractions. Overall, my experience at Aayu Melayu was wonderful, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Penang.

Living in a traditional building is a special experience. The room is very cozy, especially the bed. After a long, tiring day, the bed helps us relax. The location is excellent, allowing us to walk to all the famous landmarks.

Aayu Church is a charming blend of heritage and comfort, nestled in the heart of George Town. The architecture carries a quiet elegance, reminiscent of European boutique stays, with tasteful touches and a serene atmosphere. The room was well-appointed, clean, and peaceful—ideal for unwinding after a day exploring the vibrant streets of Penang. Its location is excellent, within walking distance to both cultural sites and excellent local eateries. The team was warm and attentive, always ready to assist with a smile. A lovely experience overall—I would happily return.

    Excellent rural setting. Friendly hosts. Clean rooms and basic rooms (expected given that it's a farm stay). Close to other fruit farms. Love the setup of the villas. The small wade pool was a hit with the children.

    Really great location to calm down and relax. The fruit farm is a beautiful place in the middle of nature to enjoy a few calm vacation days. If you are lucky, Jenny will be around and cook delicious meals for you :) The hosts know a lot about Penang and its surroundings and give great recommendations! Highly recommend!
