- Mathias Huss (7/5): - Udemærket og rent værelse. Personalet ydede ikke den store service, og virkede ikke rigtig glad for man var der.
- Orane (8/5): - Very modern hotel. The lobby, bar, pool and other facilities were really great. The room was impressive, with a huge size and very nice decoration. The shower and bathroom were nothing short of perfect. The location isn't really great. It's midway between the airport and George Town but a lot of traffic in the area and not a great offer of restaurant or other touristic stuffs. Also, the hotel entrance was pretty hard to find.
- Hanani (5/5): Good - Spacious room No iron , abit not muslim friendly
- honeybie (9/5): - Bersih dan cantik..tempat strategik
- Yew Meng (9/5): Great location only if you have a car. - The location is wonderful. It’s very central if you are driving or using e-hailing. Not great if you rely on public transport. The overall hotel is new and the staff is professional Some of the wall plugs are not working. Need to do routine check.
- Ahmad Idriss (9/5): - I like everything about the hotel..
- Ctleha (7/5): - the hotel very aesthetic,good vibes,have free complimentary drink,friendly staff,good food especially fried skin fish with salted egg very crispy n so good,everyone should try if coming here🤭 there is no staff bring your big luggage to room,the lobby not in entrance but level 9,swimming pool in front of pub for muslim mybe might be comfortable this kind of area🤗

- Fook Chua (8/5): Average was good, just hotel should look into the mentioned two major areas for improvement. - 1) Room is big and clean.
2) Location considers good as well if with own car. Two major areas for improvement:
1. Breakfast and drinks are only served at 8AM, which is not ideal and generally unacceptable for a hotel.
2. The cleaner was vacuuming the floor while guests were enjoying their drinks in the morning. Guests had to lift their legs to facilitate the cleaning. Cleaning activities should be completed before service begin to avoid disturbing guests and to maintain a clean and comfortable environment.

- Ceri (10/5): Enjoyed our stay - High quality hotel. Pool area was really beautiful. Bed was super comfy. The free drink was a lovely touch. Really clean. Slightly further away from main area in George Town.
- Lan'Ehh (8/5): - The air-conditioning is totally worst as it produce lowest amount of cooling air and extremely frustrating
- Corentin (8/5): A stylish stay with spacious rooms and great value, though the fitness facilities are very limited - The hotel is very modern and the rooms are impressively spacious, which made for a very comfortable stay. The industrial-style design is a nice touch, and the overall cleanliness and service were consistently good throughout my two nights. It offers solid value for money for travelers looking for a stylish base in George Town. While the hotel is great, the location requires a short Grab ride to reach the main heritage area and street food stalls. The main downside was the fitness area. It isn't a real gym and lacks enough equipment for a proper workout

- Lev (3/5): Overall, the stay had a nice co-living vibe, but the poor maintenance, lack of comfort, and unfinished feel made it disa - Great co-living vibes in Penang. A bit far from George Town The property feels cheaply done and not well maintained. The kitchenette is minimal, with only a few plates, a sink, and a microwave, and most of the room is left strangely empty. There is no central AC, just two individual units, and they were the loudest I have ever experienced. Exposed cables hanging from the wall also gave the place an unfinished feel.
In addition, several things were not working properly. The overhead shower did not work, and although we asked for it to be repaired, it was never fixed. The shower handle kept falling off, and there were also unusual electrical clicking noises throughout the stay.

- Chuah (7/5): overall minimalist environment, even better if the room cleaning services can be improved. - Minimalistic design, big room, nice swimming pool, overall minimalist environment Towel has a lot of dust, no proper room cleaning services despite we have indicated at the door front (in the morning) for room cleaning. Upon returning to hotel at 6pm and room was not cleaned, no new towels and have to constantly request for cleaning services. This is the only downside of it. Other than that, it was very a pleasant and comfortable stay.

- Eliz Meow (8/5): - Had an amazing few night stay at Sho Hotel Penang! The staff were friendly from the moment we checked in. Our room was spacious, spotless, and had a stunning view. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area, we will definitely be back!! Personal recommended, preferable bright color theme. The toilet tiles are too dark.

- Charlotte Viktoria (7/5): In Ordnung eher für eine Nacht als Zwischenstopp. - Das Hotel war modern und relativ neu. Das Personal ist überwiegend freundlich, aber sehr sehr langsam. Das Personal ist langsam und teilweise unmotiviert.
Einige Bereiche brauchen dringend mehr Aufmerksamkeit vom Housekeeping.
Oberflächlich wirkte es sauber. ABER: am Rand unter dem Bett lagen ChickenNuggets und Pommes von den Gästen vor uns.
Als wir um die Beseitigung baten kam er mit einem Sprühwischer ohne Wasser oder Putzmittel, auch die folgenden Tage wurde mit dem selben Wischer „geputzt“….
Fussläufig kann man hier nichts erreichen.

- Sueann (5/5): - I like the bedroom got sofa. And got own parking. The parking did not include the price and like everyday before got out I need purposely go down to G floor to scam the card and go back lift to go back to my car. rm200+ per night I felt no worth to doing this. And also the shower water is really small.
- PREETIJIT KAUR (9/5): - the beds were so comfy!

- Alena (9/5): - The place is great, although it’s a bit far from the city centre and you can get stuck in traffic. The facilities are good, the rooms are spacious, the staff are attentive, and the food is nice, also have a free drink tickets. I’m giving a slightly lower rating because the floor in the room wasn’t clean, but overall everything was very good.

- Kurelbaatar (10/5): - Very good
- nicole Yang (10/5): -
- Justin (8/5): Lovely vibes and atmosphere, great value for money - Loved the vibe and atmostphere, parking was easy, rooms were very clean Access to the hotel isn't ideal for low cars, the driveway into the premise from the back neighbourhood way is steep at the drain cover

- Alan (7/5): -
- Hani Hareiza (3/5): Enjoyed the spacious room and design, but the bathroom privacy was not ideal. - Spacious room with a nice, modern design. The bathroom design lacks privacy. It has glass panels where silhouettes are visible when the light is on, the sink is outside the bathroom, and the bathroom door cannot be locked, which was uncomfortable for family stays.
- REID (9/5): - Extremely spacious room, high quality pillows / mattress, great pool and bar on the 9th floor.
- Damen Lim (9/5): -
- mazlina (9/5): - very modern n cozy
- Rabie Haider (7/5): Bad first impression which was eventually salvaged by the hotel staff. - I was originally assigned a room which had issues with it's sewage system. Upon complaining, the staff came and sprayed some liquids but that was not ever going to fix the issue. And so I asked for a room change, which was given to me almost right away, but this should not have been the case in the first place. Multiple other travelers have complained about the same issue and the hotel management should have resolved this by now. I was originally assigned a room which had issues with it's sewage system.
