Pros: The aircon is nice and cold and the WiFi works great. The shower is clean and nice hot water with great natural products - I even purchased some from their store. The staff there are super friendly and always willing to help. We asked to have breakfast early and they said no problem. They switch every other day an offering of noodles or naan like bread which comes with fruit, eggs, cereal, coffee everyday. I always walked away full. We loved this place the most after a month in SE Alaska. Beds were also very comfortable.

Pros: If you're a lover of antiques and enjoy coziness after a long day out, this is the stay for you! Felt like a home away from home. Staff were friendly; we met the owner as well - lovely and helpful. Also given the limit number of rooms, there weren't too many guests so it wasn't noisy or crowded like what most hotels would be.

Cons: There were little gnats when I accidentally left a wrapped muffin out so I wouldn’t bring any food into the room. Our air on wasn’t working at first but the staff came quickly to fix.

Pros: Location and staff were amazing. Really helpful with everything. Thank you! Bed was nice. The street food down the street to the right, on Chulia (?) Street was the best we had. Don't ignore it because it's close.
Cons: The noise from the street sometimes was a bit much but they were using jack hammers on the road from 11:30pm to 03:00 ish. Definitely not the hotels fault.

Pros: The hotel is quite conveniently located in the heart of George Town, with most main tourist locations in walking distance. The hotel staff is warm and welcoming, and really makes Ren I Tang a home away from home.
Cons: Nothing! However, people booking a room should be aware that the stairs in the hotel (and in some rooms) are quite steep.

Staff were friendly; we met the owner as well - lovely and helpful. Also given the limit number of rooms, there weren't too many guests so it wasn't noisy or crowded like what most hotels would be.
Cons: Personally felt that breakfast could be better. You have a choice of a home cooked scrambled egg (which could be cooked better) or a daily local breakfast that varies - they order from the stalls just by street. Coffee machine was a hit and miss as well, even the staff struggled a bit.

The Rangoon Residence @ Georgetown is one of the newest hotels in George Town, having opened in 2015. Famous local attractions Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion and Lorong Love, can both be reached with a short walk. After a long day of sightseeing, guests can retire to the comfort of the hotel. Travelers requiring pickup service can book this directly through the hotel. For those driving themselves, parking is provided on site. According to our guests, this hotel provides a very high level of service.

Pros: This Homestay is in a quite street about a 15 minute walk to the Georgia town center with plenty of food locations closer by. Our room was comfortable and exceptionally clean , private with a nice deck , the whole property is really well kept with a homely feel. The manager Jenny is very accommodating , friendly and helpful. If you’re looking for a quite chill out close to town , but far enough out to avoid noise then this Homestay is highly recommended. Will stay again on returning trips to Penang.

Pros: Perfect family stay at the heart of Georgetown! And obviously value for money! The check-in was so smooth as the staff/manager was so helpful in everything I need. Truly kids-friendly with kids section playing area, clean ground and room. Good safety for the access and parkings, plus no much noise even it's located by the main road (Jalan Burmah). Most recommended stay in Penang for sure, worth every penny!

Cons: Aint what I dislike about my stay, yet just the overview that you might need to bear in mind. Limited free parking (up to 4cars only); yet you will find the paid parking nearby with no hustle. Staircase; as all the rooms will be upstairs (just one level up), please be ensure you are in fit condition to hike the stairs up to the rooms. Yet overall, it's a great stay =)
