Stayed in the Mansion Villa. The property and room decor is quite unique. But the room itself is basically right up against the street. This means you can hear every motorbike, car and other vehicle passing by. If you are a light sleeper this room is not for you. I left after one night and checked into another hotel because I could not sleep. I'm not sure that other rooms on the property would have been much quieter. Also, there was no "do not disturb" sign, and housekeeping staff attempted to enter the room while I was inside. The room could use a bit more cleaning, especially the rugs. Location is good.

A beautiful, historic facility and fantastic staff that take care of all your needs. The rooms can use updating and the A/C in our 1st room was too weak (the staff moved us into another room that had better a/c) but restaurants are a short walk away and again, the staff are great.

A modernized historuc mansion in George Town. Rooms are spacious and well appointed with period furniture. Bathroom spacious with rain shower faucet and room for 2 😊 Small outdoor lap pool that was welcoming after hot day of sightseeing. Staff were pleasant but clearly not equioted to run a hotel and service guests. Overall good value for the money

It's the first hotel that I've checked out earlier than expected because I couldn't sleep at all during my first night. The room is really spacious and rather clean. But they don't have proper pillow; the pillow was extremely thin. The aircon wasn't cooling the room enough as well, so I was perspiring. In addition, the property is beside a main road and so it's always very noisy. I think the place should have sound proof window and good pillows. I do understand that it's an old mansion but if it is being converted to a hotel, much more should be done.

The mansion has been beautifully restored to its former glory and it was a total delight to stay in it. The staff are just wonderful, in particular Priya and Steph, who gave us useful directions on eating places and shopping, and were just so obliging. Great to watch the video on the restoration works.

The property was really well located in a smart area just on the edge of the old town which allowed us to explore areas we would have not thought to look up. The hotel is very spacious and cute, but the pool is the real gem, especially after a day exploring. Great dining close by in all directions

Pleasant stay
It's Penang, traffic is hell and parking is not plenty. And it is Georgetown so road is narrow. Those things are the worst of the entire stay BUT I find no fault with the hotel. It was quiet, the quickest, easiest check in I have ever had - EVER. My husband had to find tiny spot by their entrance so we can drop our luggage, all the while traffic is flowing inches away. They have staff to carry the bags upstairs where our room is located. Then he has to go find parking, luckily right next to the hotel, there was a spot but to get to that spot he had to drive around to find the street leading to it. All the while hoping no one else has taken that spot. The hotel itself was so quiet, I hardly ever see any but 2 occupants while passing the entrance. The pool was refreshing from the heat, it was during the time when they had heat problems. Yes, the stench from all those open storm sewer wafting up it gets really hard to enjoy anything, even while eating at those restaurants nearby. But that's just how Malaysia is. I wish I can pluck the hotel and put it somewhere else in Penang where the traffic is not as crazy and parking is not a stressful to get. Otherwise, the room was clean, the bathroom was huge and clean and hot water works and my boys love the upstairs bed. We didn't hear any noise from the nearby mosque. Actually we slept really well.

The rooms are large and comfortable with characterful decorations. Staff are available and able to give local information. There were water and coffee available and the pool was nice to have a cooling dip, though the poolside was not great for all day chilling out. Super close to the town but not full of backpacker noise and hipster establishments. The wifi in the room was weak and in an old building some noise such as heavy footsteps carries from other rooms
