2-Star Hotels in Penang, Malaysia

The owner, who speaks Chinese, was very welcoming and enthusiastic. The hotel is very close to the pier, with food stalls and a 7-Eleven nearby. It's also very affordable.

The entire guesthouse was spotlessly clean, and the decor was warm and stylish. The host was very friendly and patiently answered all our questions about local attractions and how to get around. The location is excellent, with food, drinks, and entertainment all within easy reach.

No pictures to share. The location is very good and easy to find. The lounge area is spacious but only has two chairs. The carpet isn't clean enough to sit on. The bathroom is okay, but the toilet isn't clean, and no slippers were provided for the toilet. The pump was broken. The bedsheets and towels smelled sour, as if they hadn't been dried properly. In my opinion, the cube sleeping area is only suitable for small people. Check-in and check-out were easy. Information from the owner was very fast and accurate.

Great stay at The Harbour! The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Check-in was smooth and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The location was convenient, with easy access to nearby restaurants and attractions. The bed was comfortable, and the room had everything I needed for a short stay. The facilities were in good condition, and the overall environment was quiet and relaxing. I had a pleasant experience and would consider staying here again in the future. Highly recommended for travelers looking for a comfortable and affordable place to stay.

I mean what could possibly ask for a lot with this price but the location is convenient after all.The room is small & the toilet is just mobile toilet and the hair dryer was broken when we stayed there but they came & replace it with a new one in the morning.Check in is easy just with passcode but it’s hard to contact to property on time actually.The bed was not too soft but it’s okay for travelers.Overall Clearly needs renovation since the room is dusty & hallway is quite smell.

Not great at all. The room was quite small, and the sheets had stubborn stains that wouldn't wash out. The facilities were so old, I'd never seen a water heater like it – it made a weird whirring noise when turned on. And there was no hairdryer in the entire hotel! No hairdryer, I just don't understand!! Luckily, we brought our own toothbrushes and other toiletries because they weren't provided. Paying over 200 RMB on Trip.com for this was really not worth it. It's comparable to a 70 RMB hotel back home. However, to be fair, the location is very convenient, within walking distance to the mural street, Peranakan Museum, and other attractions.

For travellers who travel by train, the location is excellent, walkable to the train station. Why walk when you can get a grab car easily? To walk off all the rich food we eat! The hotel is also within walking distance to the ferry terminal (Penang Sentral). So if you arrive via ferry from Georgetown, no problem! I walked to the ferry terminal to take a ferry to Georgetown! Adding to the convenience, there is a supermarket and self service laundromat near the hotel. The hotel has a lift, which is convenient, if you are assigned a higher floor. No need to carry yourself and your luggage to your room. But no chance to work off the extra calories. I'm not complaining, though Reception is 24 hours. I had to leave very early as I had an early train to catch, but was able to collect back the RM50 deposit. Oh yes, RM2 was collected during check in. Trip.com had informed me at the time of booking, so this is not a surprise to me The room that was assigned to me is spacious. The bathroom is well laid out. Shower on one side, WC on another side and sink in the middle. Shower gel was provided. Shampoo was not provided. It might be because the gadget for the shampoo container was broken. I booked a windowless room. But because it was spacious, I did not miss not having a window. I paid a higher price for my room, I don't know why my receipt showed a much lower price. In summary, I would stay in this hotel again if I go again to Butterworth Pictures 1: Aircon lobby - such a welcomed relief when coming in from the hot and humid weather 2. The hotel's room rated 3. My room rate, which is different from what I had paid in advance to trip.com 4. Door to the bathroom 5. Above the WC, racks for drying wet stuff, very hardy 7.The missing shampoo container 6.The ceiling of the lift - pretty and classy 8. Don't lose your receipt. You need it to claim back your deposit 9. The supermarket nearby 10. The laundromat

Saw the few not good comment in review ,expected it is average level hotel.But while I check in, the room is clean that I expected,and it is better than I expected. Just hope they can provide toothbrush in future.

I stayed at Swing & Pillows @75 Muntri in a queen-size room and had a good overall experience for the price. The bed was soft and comfortable, the air conditioning worked well, and the shared bathroom was clean. The location is easy to find, with nice streets and surroundings to explore nearby. I was pleasantly surprised by how clean and fresh the place felt. The facilities are excellent for a budget stay, including a microwave, fridge, water dispenser, and a small kitchen for guests. The room itself was spotless and well-maintained. However, the walls are quite thin, so noise from other guests can be easily heard, especially doors and footsteps at night. The staircase is also narrow and requires some caution. Overall, AQ offers great value for money and is a good choice for budget travelers, as long as you don’t mind some noise.

A decent option for an overnight stay near the airport. It has good air conditioning, two ceiling fans, a shower with hot water, nice bedding and towels. There's a water cooler with hot and cold water (located in the smoking area), and an iron available at the front desk. They immediately provided a plug adapter at reception upon request. The staff are friendly. A taxi from the hotel to the airport costs 10-15 ringgit. Regarding the downsides: you have to take off your shoes at the hotel entrance, but they provide a shoe locker with a key to keep them secure. I was also given a room whose window faced the reception, specifically it was right behind the receptionist's back, but it was quiet at night and I managed to get a good night's sleep, so that didn't bother me.
