Hotéis com bar em Penang, Malaysia

Overall, I had a pleasant stay and a good experience. The staff were all very polite, friendly, and helpful, which made us feel welcome throughout our stay. The hotel itself is a little dated, and some areas could benefit from better maintenance. The tiles underneath the sink were cracked and looked as though they might come loose, which was a bit concerning. There were also some marks and stains around the sink area. They may simply be due to age or water stains, but they gave the bathroom a less clean appearance. One thing that concerned me was the presence of Charlie ants (rove beetles). We noticed them outside the room, and there were also quite a few in the steam room. Although the hotel has placed notices to warn guests about them, they are extremely small and difficult to spot unless you look very carefully. Since contact with them can cause skin irritation, it was a little worrying. Overall, the staff provided excellent service, and we enjoyed our stay. I hope the hotel can improve the maintenance of the facilities and continue taking measures to reduce the presence of Charlie ants, as these improvements would make the experience even better.

We chose The Lone Pine Hotel to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I was worried that arriving too late on the first day would spoil the romantic vibe, but the hotel was incredibly accommodating. They proactively arranged for our cake and gifts to be delivered the next morning, allowing us to enjoy them leisurely – this thoughtful detail was a huge plus. As for the view, we were lucky enough to be upgraded to a sea-view room. The endless blue ocean outside the window offered a superb vista. Even more surprising was that I had only booked breakfast for the first day because we had an early start on the second. Yet, the hotel upgraded our second day's breakfast for free – so incredibly considerate! The food was the major highlight of this trip: I highly recommend the fried chicken at the breakfast buffet; it's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, usually gone before 11 AM. After 10 AM, there's also an outdoor Welcome Drink by the pool, and the adjacent Barbecue area offers amazing fried kway teow and roti canai. The overall dining atmosphere was very chill. The location is also very convenient, just a few minutes' walk to late-night snack stalls and the beach torch performance. Finally, I must praise the nighttime experience – many might mind the sound of the waves, but I absolutely love falling asleep to them; it's incredibly therapeutic and relaxing. It's basically a place where you can just unwind for a couple of days 🎶. One small suggestion: The hotel could perhaps optimize the color scheme of its lighting. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who loves a slow pace and a seaside getaway! 🌊🍗

The hotel's facilities are exceptional. On a clear day, the sea view is absolutely stunning, with a vast ocean panorama right outside the room window. If the weather is good, you can even catch the sunset. I gave the facilities five stars because there are two swimming pools: one children's pool with a small slide, and a sky pool more suitable for adults. You can order food by the sky pool, and it's quite good. Additionally, for families with children, there's a kids' playground with various activities. Children aged five and above can be looked after, allowing adults to go to the gym or do other things, which is a very thoughtful service. I only gave the hotel's location and cleanliness three stars. The location is quiet but there's nothing else nearby. Typically, beachfront hotels are closer to night markets, especially this one which is quite secluded. The hotel does offer a shuttle service, but when I enquired, they didn't mention the need for a reservation, and there was only one scheduled trip. I arrived 15 minutes early only to be told I needed a reservation, and by then, it was full. Luckily, a 10-minute taxi ride still works. Regarding cleanliness, the room attendant didn't clean properly. Leftover takeout food was still in the room, which was quite disappointing.

Hotel average. Not satisfied with the difference in check in counter&the deposit is quite high for average hotel. Receipts for deposit provided only by request. The pressure for toilet bidet is too slow. Room is clean & spacious however the pillow is too light&causing a headache in the morning. Charge for parking is too high & unacceptable for guest shoud be waive.

Our last hotel in Penang was in Batu Ferringhi. The hotel isn't very large, and the room facilities are a bit dated, but the experience was excellent! First, the resort layout is well-designed; despite its size, the areas are cleverly arranged, creating beautiful views at every turn. There are several swimming pools, including two for children with slides and more. Most importantly, there are staff members consistently present at the slides and by the pools to supervise and maintain order, ensuring children can play safely and securely! Breakfast was also great; although there was a queue during peak hours, the food was delicious and offered a wide variety. The beach bar also had good food, and it was lovely to relax there with the lights on at night. The best part is that the hotel has direct access to the beach and the sea! And the path from the hotel to the sea looks absolutely beautiful when lit up at night. We booked a two-story family room with a lovely balcony. The staff service was also excellent. I'm giving it five stars.

Really nice and clean place to stay in. Have a great meeting lobby, clean room. Also a convenient shop where you can get almost anything! Great location. Facilities are very good swimming pools, gyms but don’t have enough time to go around. The massage is at level 10, tried out. Not bad though.

This hotel was arguably the best value for money on our entire Singapore-Malaysia trip. The overall style is an unfussy, beachfront vibe. The basic room type, priced under 400 MYR, all come with balconies and are located in the main building on higher floors. We paid a little extra for a room type that required us to go down from the main hall and take another elevator; it was on a lower floor but closer to the sea, with a very large balcony and expansive views. It has all the standard resort amenities, the common areas are pleasant, the private beach offers fantastic scenery, and the sea-view restaurant is also quite good, especially the 38 MYR set menu which is excellent value.

The hotel's new location is good, but... The shower water pressure in the bathroom was very low, and it kept fluctuating between scorching hot and icy cold. The internet was terrible. Even connected to Wi-Fi, some apps wouldn't load properly. There was racial discrimination in the staff's service. A Malay guest parked their car in the EV charging spot all day without charging, and the staff didn't make them move, claiming the guest said their car was over 2500kg and couldn't go into the lift parking! We needed to charge but had no space, even though our car was larger and heavier than theirs, and the staff told us to use the lift parking! Then, as soon as we finished charging, they made us move our car early in the morning, while the Malay car next to us remained untouched! The staff even said, ”If your car is too heavy for the lift parking, find a place to park outside yourself!”

Shangri-La, as always! The facilities, though a bit dated, were clean and smelled great. I'd mentioned it was a birthday trip, and they arranged a room in the Garden Wing on the 6th floor. To my surprise, when I returned to the room after swimming on my check-in day, there was a birthday cake! Even though I didn't get to thank the staff in person, it was a really thoughtful gesture that I appreciated. The staff by the pool were also super friendly and always greeted us warmly. The hotel breakfast is definitely worth it – the Nonya kueh, the noodle station, the tea stall by the entrance, and the flame-grilled toast are all highly recommended! We also had dinner at the hotel, and it was delicious. Beyond that, the hotel's natural environment was a major reason we chose it – I just love all the trees! We saw lizards, squirrels, and lots of birds. It's a shame we didn't spot the legendary monkeys this time, but I'm looking forward to seeing them on our next visit!

Fantastic hotel with top-tier service, though the location is average My friend and I stayed for one night in a Standard Room at the Crowne Plaza Penang Straits City. The hotel truly feels like a 5-star property, and the cleanliness, service, and amenities were all absolutely excellent. We were well taken care of by the attentive staff, and the facilities—like the outdoor swimming pool and fitness centre—were top-notch. The only minor downside was the location in Perai, which we felt was just average compared to staying directly on Penang Island. Overall, it is a great choice if you prioritize comfort and exceptional service!
