Pet friendly Hotels in Penang, Malaysia

Found this gem of a place by accident. With many hotels increasing rates during the festive season I managed to book a room here for a price I thought was way below the average for a 3 room unit. Of course my expectations were not much BUT when I arrived I was pleasantly surprised - what I say a “bang for your buck” - it was near one of the busiest shopping complexes and close to highways which was a breeze until u hit town (obviously). My room even had a sea view. It’s tucked away outside the busy streets and to me it gave me the extra quietness and calm I needed after a long drive. I hit the pool and tried the gym - not a big gym but “it’s all there”. This is what I noticed : bus station and airport was in my opinion nearby (no more than a 20min grab ride) In short you can’t fault this property for the price you’re paying. I will be back! Tq for making the stay memorable.

This loft in the city center is relatively decent. It's perfectly located for all the attractions. The airport bus stop is just a 10-minute walk from the hotel. There are two large shopping malls nearby. A big thank you to the staff for letting us check in early. The bed linen was soft and the air conditioning worked perfectly. Shampoo and shower gel were provided for free. There's a water cooler (hot/cold) on the floor. The fridge worked great, and there was also a kettle and toaster in the room. As for the downsides: The cleanliness of the room was so-so – dusty, with a somewhat worn-out renovation, and some noticeable dirt stains in places. The shower only had lukewarm water. There were no face towels. One of the bath towels had a stain. There were ants running around near the fridge, seemingly knowing where the food was, so make sure to put all your food straight into the fridge. I left a biscuit on the table and ants swarmed it. There are no double-glazed windows, and since our room faced the street, we could hear passing cars perfectly. It's tolerable for a night or two, but not for any longer.

My biggest regret about staying at this B&B was only booking one night. I really wish I had stayed longer, and I'll definitely be back if I get the chance! The environment here is fantastic. Waking up and drawing back the curtains to see the ocean was pure bliss. It's also very close to Tanjung Rhu Beach, where you can catch a great fireworks show. The owner was incredibly thoughtful, recommending nearby restaurants and beaches, and even sharing some beautiful spots we hadn't discovered ourselves. Staying here felt so free and comfortable, just like being at home. Overall, it was a truly wonderful stay. I highly recommend everyone stay for more than just one night – we only stayed a single night and didn't even have time to explore the night market, which was such a shame. I honestly feel like this area is much more enjoyable than George Town city center!

Comfy bed and convenient location! However owner needs to inform guest earlier on the check in information, pls contact owner right after booking. Overall all good!

Traveling to Penang makes it more convenient and easy. The homestay is overall good 👍. Only the water heater in one room needs to be repaired.
