4/5 Posted by MR. HAMILTON, David, United Kingdom in April 2009
"Stayed in ground floor romm which was furnished in very basic traditional style with original stone floor[no rugs]. We found noise a problem from the rooms around us. We had mini fridge, tea/coffee and hard mattress on the bed. Most of the staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was cooked to order. Public rooms were furnished with antiques and were stunning. Location was good - walking distance for most sights. "

4/5 Posted by MR. GLOSSOP, Terance, United Kingdom in February 2009
"Very charming,fascinating, historic building - formerly the mansion of a very rich Chinese businessman who had it designed to be richly decorated and perfectly in tune with feng shui. Perfect place to feel part of the heritage of Penang. The owner and staff were very helpful. Also, there are three delightful cats in residence in the hotel. Overall, a great experience. Best place to stay in Georgetown to soak up the ambience. A few minor suggestions for improvement - 1. Install a fridge in the rooms so one can keep cold drinks there 2. Install cable internet. There is free wireless in the public areas, but the walls are too thick for the signal to get through in the rooms "
