The Prestige Hotel Penang, a Member of Design Hotels

Bedrooms were beautiful, clean and modern. The shower was probably the best I’ve ever experienced in a hotel before - amazing water pressure and always hot. Beds were huge and comfortable, and the room was nice and dark at night, though we did have to cover up the aircon light.

The pool area was disappointing. Looked much bigger in the photos, and for the number of guests there are a very limited number of sun beds. My biggest issue was however that the pool was actually really dirty. It couldn’t be seen from a distance but when we got in the pool you could see so much mould lining all the grouting that would come off in your hand if you brushed it lightly meaning it clearly hadn’t been clean properly in a long time or alternatively, the chemicals must not be the right balance as I also found my skin stung after swimming. Seems picky but I promise if you look you’ll see it’s a real issue.

Location was great. Pool and deck were beautiful.

Bathroom configuration was odd

Sehr schönes Stadthotel, tolle Lage gleich neben/in Little India. Viele Lokale in Gehreichweite. Das Hotel war elegant und traditionsreich, jedoch sehr modern aussgebaut. Wir liebten das Zimmer und vor allem die große Dusche. Highlight war auch der Trinkwasserhahn im Zimmer. Wir liebten das Design des Hotels. Das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend. Der Rooftop Pool und die Bar waren ein toller Tagesausklang.

Das Gym ist nicht für Kraftsport geeignet.

Good location, comfortable room, excellent value for money and really nice staff made for a great stay in Penang. Very highly recommended.

This is nitpicking but, as nice as the room was, a little more storage space for clothes would be good.

The design of the hotel is unique. I like the details in the room. Shower room shower head pressure was great. Housekeeping is good and efficient. Reasonably nice breakfast. Within walking distance to many restaurants, cafe and shops.

I stayed here in Feb 2026. It is a really nice "boutique" hotel in a histotical building. It is in a historic area, near the Queen Victoria clock tower and Fort Cornwallis (and the coast) on one side and Little India on the other. Close to most things. I paid c. €462 for 3 nights which I thought was good value all in all. As a smaller boutique hotel in an older building, they have made it really pretty with an open glass mall and reception/ restaurant area. The rooms are comfortable. The top feature is the pool area with lovely views of the coast/port and "other side". It is a small pool with only about 8-10 deck chairs but really nice once you get a spot. There is a little cocktail bar too. There is only a very small gym area but that's ok! I must say the staff here are noticeably nice and friendly and always smile and say hi and offer to help. I didn't eat here so can't comment but they did give a complimentary drink. I really enjoyed here as a base in Penang. Classy!

It was all great.
