Great location next to 2 malls and hawker food area. Also easy to reach north of the island and downtown George Town. Exec room was good, large bathroom with great shower, Nespresso style machine. Plenty of power sockets. Gym was ok, good business centre. Breakfast was ok, I felt the food could be slightly better quality.

The hotel was great as were the staff. It was what I needed on this trip. Shame that they throw the uneaten foods in the bin instead of giving to some less fortunate as there must be a lot.

Die Unterkunft liegt etwas außerhalb, doch ist man in wenigen Minuten im Zentrum (Taxi). Zu Fuss kann man 2 grosse Einkaufszentren mit vielen Restaurants erreichen. Das Frühstück im Hotel ist reichhaltig. Das Personal ist sehr hilfsbereit und aufmerksam. Das Pool und die Bar auf dem Dach sind Spitze!

honeymoon

Tijdens mijn reis in Maleisië, heb ik besloten om 2 nachtjes in Penang te verblijven. Uiteindelijk kwam ik terecht bij G Hotel Kelawai. Bij het inchecken bleek dat we bij de oude hotel waren aangekomen en dat zag er al geweldig uit. Uiteindelijk werden we met een golfkarretje gebracht naar ons hotel. Is ongeveer 5 minuutjes rijden. Ik heb uiteindelijk heerlijk genoten. Goeie service, heel vriendelijk en eten was heerlijk.
