A little out of the way
The facilities are good but the room was outdated : old tv, noisy fridge and old bed. They need to improve their shuttle services otherwise you need to take the bus because there is nothing walking distance. Many crows birds around the hotel. Quite creepy.

Not fancy but good value and comfortable
Friendly helpful staff, facilities were ok, comfortable location requires a bus or taxi to get anywhere. Only thing to watch out for is when we went to leave the taxi never showed up, we took a bus to town and caught a cab. Get up early and reconfirm your transportation. I would stay there again. Food and drink were pricey but that would be normal in most hotels.

Dining tip:
Not Applicable
Eat in the local food courts, some of the best tasting food in the world and inexpensive. The hawker centre at batuferringi is ok but somewhat diluted by Westerners who want to eat burgers and fries no matter where they are in the world and prices are about 20% higher than in other areas of pinang

Clean, comfortable room with a
Clean, comfortable room with a great sea view. Since we came at low season, they upgraded us to a Superior room, which was quite spacious and appreciated. Breakfast buffet is pretty average, but acceptable. One "a la carte" meal was quite good but slightly pricey by Penang standards. Pool is OK with good poolside seating, and the little beach is well worth the 75+ steps to get to it...just to sit in the shade and enjoy the sea.

Exec Deluxe room we had booked
Exec Deluxe room we had booked was not to expected standard & we were (gratefully) upgraded. Property was extremely busy, so breakfast was CHAOTIC at best. Porter service was ABYSMAL. No-one to collect bags on arrival, couldn't/wouldn't organise a taxi on departure - waited over an hour! Local bus is cheap & efficient - just a few minutes to/from the night market. WIFI is charged and in public areas is conditional on purchase.

I had to wait for about one hour
I had to wait for about one hour for check in.We travelled from KL on the car for 5 hours and were very tired and stiff. There were many other guests who were getting impatient and angry with the procedure. It was painfully slow and poor receptionists were running around like headless chickens . I have never seen any worse reception. Although it is a good hotel in a good location and other facilities are good I would not come back to avoid the same painful experience
