[2024 Tanjung Bungah Stay] Travel Guide for Mercure Penang Beach (Updated Nov)
Hotel Mercure Penang Beach 🏝 🏖
🚶🏻🤳🏻The facilities are decent. The best thing here is the semi-private beach area, as well as dining in The Ombak overlooking the beach. The swimming pool also sees good use for those who prefer to avoid the ocean.
However, the gymnasium is in a state of partial disrepair, with the weights machine lacking the handlebars (which had broken off). Lack of parking spaces is also a problem.
Rooms are spacious, modern, and clean. I stayed at the Superior King Room With Ocean View.

weekend breaks
A weekend holiday by the beach with family is a delightful escape that offers relaxation, bonding, and fun-filled activities. The sound of waves lapping against the shore, the warm sun on your skin, and the salty breeze create an atmosphere of tranquility that invites everyone to unwind.
Upon arrival, the excitement is palpable as the family sets up their beach spot with colorful umbrellas and beach towels. Children quickly dash to the water, eager to splash in the waves, while adults may choose to lounge, read a book, or catch up on conversation. The atmosphere is one of laughter and joy, with the beach providing a perfect backdrop for creating lasting memories.
Activities are abundant during a beach getaway. Families often engage in building sandcastles, playing beach volleyball, or simply walking along the shoreline collecting shells. For the adventurous, renting paddleboards or kayaks offers a thrilling way to explore the nearby waters. As the day transitions into evening, watching the sunset together becomes a cherished ritual, with vibrant hues painting the sky.
Culinary experiences are also a highlight of a beach holiday. Picnics featuring fresh fruits, sandwiches, and snacks can be enjoyed on the sand, while nearby beach restaurants offer seafood and local delicacies. Sharing meals together fosters connection and provides the perfect opportunity to reflect on the day's adventures.
As night falls, the beach atmosphere transforms. Families often gather around a bonfire, roasting marshmallows and sharing stories under the starlit sky. The sound of the ocean creates a soothing backdrop, enhancing the sense of peace and togetherness.
Overall, a weekend beach holiday with family rejuvenates the spirit. It fosters connection, encourages playfulness, and allows for relaxation away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. These moments spent together by the water are not just enjoyable but are also essential for building stronger family bonds and creating lasting memories.

My first time try to stay in Mercure Penang and its soo wonderful! Brought family together here.
Before this always thought Penang is soo jam! ( yes indeed during peak hours). But actually of we do arrive here before office hours (around 7am-9am or 5-7pm) then the traffic better. On the way to Tg Bunga was so fun if no jamm. I wish Penang LRT will complete asap!
Penang is so lovely. Can come again soon ❤️🇲🇾🫰🏻 #penang #mercurehotel #familytrip

Had a fantastic stay at Tanjung Bungah, Penang when my wife's friends came over from Shanghai to visit. Compared to the more popular Batu Feringghi beach, this part of Penang is more family friendly without the hustle and bustle of nightlife, bars and night markets.. good quiet enclave to relax by the beach and a base to explore Penang from

Penang is always a charm. You get to unwind in the morning and join the hustle and bustle of the city after. Food is glorious. 2 days, 3 days or 5 days. Its never enough 🤍

Decent location to stay neae Batu Feringgi, Penang
If you are looking for a decent place with direct access to beachfront and good pricing, look no further than Mercure Penang Beach.
The room condition might be a bit old but it's still going to offer a pretty decent 2 - 3 nights stay. The location is also pretty convinient, with a local foodcourt within walking distance, and a shopping mall a short drive away. Batu Feringgi is also within a 15 minutes drive away.

PLAYING TOURIST AT PENANG 🏝️
During our stay at Mercure Penang, the hotel's comfort and elegance set the perfect tone for our Penang adventure. We began with a delightful breakfast at Biru Biru Resort Café, enjoying the serene beach views and fresh pastries.
Eager to explore, we headed to George Town, where the vibrant streets brimmed with colorful murals and colonial architecture. We savored the famous nasi kandar at a bustling local eatery, relishing the aromatic rice and rich curries.
Our afternoon was spent wandering through George Town's charming alleys, discovering antique shops and quaint temples. Each corner of the city revealed a piece of its rich history.
In the evening, we visited Padang Kota Lama, a lively spot known for its street food. We indulged in pasembor, a delicious Malaysian Indian salad with spicy peanut sauce, enjoying the mix of textures and flavors.
Returning to Mercure Penang, we felt fulfilled by the day's experiences. The hotel's cozy ambiance was the perfect end to a day of exploration and culinary delights. Penang had truly captured our hearts. #familytrips2024

Embracing Tranquility at Mercure Penang
The Mercure Beachfront hotel is right by a beautiful beach with amazing views of the ocean from its rooms. In the morning, I like sitting by the beach, listening to the waves, watching the sunset, and seeing couples walk along the shore. The beach is also great for finding seashells! The beds are comfy, and the shower amenities are luxurious, making our stay really relaxing.
Conveniently located in the heart of Penang, Mercure Hotel offers easy access to the island's myriad attractions. Explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site of George Town, immerse yourself in the vibrant street art scene, or simply stroll along the picturesque beaches lining the coast. With its central location, Mercure Hotel serves as the perfect base for discovering the rich culture and natural beauty of Penang.

Hotel Mercure Penang Public Area
-Public Area
4-star hotel with private beach.
Hotel Mercure Penang Beach is located on a street lined with houses and condominiums, about 20 minutes by car from the center of Penang.
Behind the compact front desk, the beautiful sea and sky suddenly appear. It is as if you are in another world.
You can enjoy the atmosphere of a resort with a private beach and swimming pool, yet you can stay in a room from RM240 per room.
I stayed in a superior ocean view room. The large window opens to the ocean, and when you lie down on the bed, the sky is all around you. Very relaxing.
There is a rocky beach right off the beach, so if you bring your own equipment, you are allowed fishing. There were countless shells on the beach.
There is a convenience store in the building next door and several reputable restaurants conveniently located within a 3 minute walk. The place was crowded with families.
Check many promotion and package!
Room rate: RM240〜
My room: Superior Ocean View(include breakfast)

Short Getaway at Mercure Penang Beach
#weekendgetaways
Mercure Penang sits along the beachfront of the Penang Beach, about 15 minutes car ride away from Gurney Drive. There is direct access to the beach, which was great for a morning stroll before breakfast.
Check-in and check- out was a breeze and the rooms were surprisingly big for the price. The bed was comfortable and clean, and there was a nice seating area within the room. Nevertheless, the bathroom was slightly small but basic necessities were provided.
The breakfast spread was also decent and there was quite a selection of food including sandwiches and an omelette station.
Facilities in the hotel included a decent pool and gym, as well as an outdoor lounge to enjoy the cool breeze.
Overall, value for money if you're looking for an affordable option to enjoy the beach in Penang.

Staycation by the Beach in Penang
🏖️ We really enjoyed our #staycation in Mercure Penang Beach. Their facilities are very well maintained and rooms are comfortable to stay in too. We love the sea view from our rooms.
Its location is strategic too as it is not far from Gurney Drive. Easy access to shopping malls and food courts. It is also complete with a beach where we can picnic and swim.
♻️ One thing I like most about them is they install water filters in the rooms as a step to conserve natural resources and reduce usage of one-time use plastics. I support this effort!
👍🏼👍🏼 Two thumbs up to their service too. On our last day, our room door were double locked. With the swift action by their maintenance team, they managed to help us open the door, with a smile on their faces. This is really excellent service!
I would definitely come back with my family soon. If you're coming to #Penang, do check out #MercurePenangBeach
