Situated in George Town, 2.2 km from Northam Beach, My Guesthouse 109 - SELF CHECK IN features air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and express check-in and check-out.

Really enjoyed our stay here. Very easy Check in and we were immediately welcomed by the friendly cats. Our private room was quite small but very clean and one of the best beds we have on a 3 month trip. The facilities were great and we could get free water and free washing which was a bonus. It was always very quiet and the cats were a great feature. Walkable to all the highlights of Georgetown - would definitely recommend to stay here.

Located 2.5 km from Northam Beach, Heritage Villa by Aayu George Town Penang in George Town provides rooms with air conditioning and free WiFi.

Great property, rooms are very spacious and pretty. The shared area is also filled with great amenities and staff are very helpful. Only thing I would say was the duvet was a little too short lengthwise but other than that it was a perfect stay. Would definitely recommend to those visiting Georgetown as the main attractions are all a short walking distance away.

Urban Suites TWO Or THREE Bedroom Georgetown by ANC is set in Jelutong and features a rooftop pool and pool views. The homestay provides a spa experience, with its sauna, hot tub and fitness room.

The cleanliness of the apartment. The towels were thick, clean and nice smelling. There were simple welcome items such as 3in1 tea packets, coffee packets, toothbrush and tooth paste. The washing machine was clean and the yard area was inviting and clean as well. Adequate racks were provided for drying the wet, clean laundry. The facilities were well maintained with the pool, basketball court, rock wall etc. There were vending machines available that served main course food, small bites and drinks.

Located within 2.4 km of Northam Beach and 600 metres of 1st Avenue Penang, Aayu Melayu George Town Penang provides rooms with air conditioning and a shared bathroom in George Town.

Faultless place to stay. Really helpful staff via WhatsApp and on site guest assistant. Self check in was welcome. Cannot fault the place. Would recommend. They have some deals with neighbouring cafes and restaurants to avail of discounts. A/C was very effective which was important given the heat.

    Very strategic location, no traffic congestion to come in and travel out form this home stay. Quite and peaceful housing area. Rooms, living room, bathrooms and kitchen were clean and well kept. All facilities provided were in good working condition and the stay was a comfortable one. Excellent place for family outing.

    Friendly staff and good location (located in a quiet housing area); it's like staying in a homestay because you can use the fridge and its kitchen's basic utensils (although we rented the rooms); iron with a board is provided outside the rooms. The air-cond, fan and shower water heater work well. The size of the double room is spacious enough for my son's family (2 adults + 2 children aged 8 and 12 years old) to move around.
