Just the perfect hotel to stay in Penang. ##### Santosa Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Marianne 11 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Spacious clean room, good location around eateries in nice legacy old style shophouses. ##### Marianne Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Michael 28 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Hotel location is good, and room comfortable. But the hotel has zero atmosphere it feels like it's just surviving and that's it ##### Michael Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Li Ling 23 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The location is nice near area food, the service is good only the bed and couch a little bit not clean, itching and dusty ##### Li Ling Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 12 Jul 2025 Liked: Staff & service #### Not that great Poor WiFi connection. I needed to sign in repeatedly. Very basic provision. Hand soap, comb, hair dryer etc were only provided upon request. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### ZAINI 3 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Convenient location with lots of option for dining. Finding a parking space can be a bit challenging. Very friendly and helpful reception staff but the housekeeper need to be a little bit more detailed when cleaning. Very spacious and clean room. ##### ZAINI ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kwok keung 19 Aug 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Terrible experience The room smells, and bed frames has bending noises. First day towels was normal, 2nd day towels was terrible condition and smells. In room no hand washing and hair dryer provided. TV channel was limited. Not recommended. ##### Kwok keung Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 1 Aug 2019 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### cleanliness and unexpected condition There are urine stings on the toilet plate of the room and electricity stoppage happened on one day's morning. Yet, polite staffs and daily room cleaning service compensate those poor experience. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Peter Jurgen Lutz 23 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness The property is very well located with lots of food outlets around. All over the facilities are OK. The mattress was worn out at one side and killed my back. Otherwise the room was fine. Upon arrival and on first evening we had to experience the one staff that was arrogantly friendly, slow and not helpful. The 'why do you bother me' attitude. All other staff was excellent. So sad! One person spoils all. ##### Peter Jurgen Lutz Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 29 Aug 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Cleanliness #### 房間大，可以24小時checkin，但房間有大曱甴 凌晨1:30到酒店，好快已經做完checkin手續，房間幾大，環境唔錯，但毛巾好舊，訓醒見到有隻大曱甴係入廁所位半死不生，已經好驚，打電話落酒店cs，好快有職員上黎幫我夾走隻大曱甴，不過一有曱甴係酒店房已經係唔合格。8am幾左右，旁邊幢大樓裝修鑽地拆牆，總之好嘈，如果酒店通知我，一定會另揀酒店，唔去住 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Karim 15 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Mysigt hotell i George Town Vi fick en tvårumslägenhet på andra våningen i ett av hotellets hörn som ligger längs med huvudleden. Dock så var rummet väl ljuddämpat och vi stördes inte av ljud. Det jag kan anmärka på är att badrummet inte hadde någon fläkt eller ventilation så det blev väldigt fuktigt när man duschade även om man öppnade fönstret. Då duschkabinen inte var helt tätt vid dörren så blev det väldigt blött på golvet om man inte var försiktig när man duschade. Hade också gärna önskat ett större kylskåp. Området ligger ca 15min från Komtar bussterminal där du kan ta bussen till alla möjliga ställen på ön. Det ligger även en del affärer och matställen längs med gatan utanför hotellet. ##### Karim Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Leong Keong 26 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities NA ##### Leong Keong Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 7 Nov 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Overall is good Comfortable room, love the shower pressure and heater.

Maybe the centralise aircon problem or how. Overall the stay is satisfied. It will be good if the hotel prepare slipper for the room. ##### NG Stayed 1 night in Dec 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Sept 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had such a lovely experience staying at Macalister hotel from check in to our departure. The hotel was clean and minimalist that I had wanted and expected. A lot of local foods stands/courts around as well as being close by the street art (10 mins walking for me). Worth the stay :). Big thanks to the both check in and out FD agents! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 31 Aug 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Convenient, Chic and Affordable If you are looking for a strategic, clean, chic yet affordable hotel in the centre of Georgetown, I personally feel that this newly operated Macalister Hotel by PHC is by far a great option. Walking distance to several foodcourts with good food, the famous Lorong Selamat Char Kuey Teow, Jiao Sai mamak and more; you’ll be able to fulfil your food cravings without the hassle to drive and finding for carpark. There’s a coffee cafe, convenient store and Watson within the hotel so you can get your coffee fix, snacks and toiletries with just few steps. The room is spacious and clean while bed is big and comfy. The only downside is that the TV has limited channels. Overall is a good place to stay and will definitely return again when we travel to Penang. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 25 Jul 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Newly furbish hotel that is clean and comfortable, the only drawback is the limited parking spots. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Yeanny 1 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Disappointed with the max 2 keys policy Max 2 keys were given during checked in while we have 4 people and were in the 2 bedroom suite room. Asked for more from the front desk and we’re told it’s the policy every room only can have 2 keys. Kinda disappointed with the front desk service. ##### Yeanny Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 1 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Room is good and bright and most importantly is clean. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 23 Oct 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 設備及裝潢很現代，飯店外觀又很有歷史文化風格，附近小吃也多，非常方便 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samantha 2 Oct 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Our room wasn't soundproof.

Room is spacious, and well laid out, clean and come with lots of pillows! Great location and surrounded by lots of good eateries, but yet sheltered from the busy main road of Jalan Macalister. Easy to walk around to explore nearby areas of interest (provided it doesn't pour), and street parking is easily available around the hotel. We will certainly be back, and highly recommended 😉 ##### Cheng Lim Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Choong, Kuala Lumpur 20 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities New design, great location, super clean, comfortable bed and pillows, lot of electrical sockets ##### Choong Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### SER-HOU 16 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### SER-HOU Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Farhanah 1 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Farhanah Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Boutique Hotel Seven Days Prague](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prague-Hotels-Boutique-Hotel-Seven-Days-Prague.h908570.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Padoue](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lourdes-Hotels-Hotel-Padoue.h2543215.Hotel-Information) > > [First Hotel Paris Tour Eiffel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-First-Hotel-Paris-Tour-Eiffel.h4013102.Hotel-Information) > > [Playitas Aparthotel - Sports Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tuineje-Hotels-Playitas-Aparthotel-Sports-Resort.h11267034.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Wembley Stadium](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wembley-Stadium-Hotels.0-l501565-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Victoria Golf Resort and Spa Managed by Accor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Loule-Hotels-Victoria-Golf-Resort-And-Spa-Managed-By-Accor.h2215702.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bear Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Devizes-Hotels-The-Bear-Hotel.h8402680.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mansion at Glen Cove](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glen-Cove-Hotels-The-Mansion-At-Glen-Cove.h862714.Hotel-Information) > > [W New York - Times Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-W-New-York-Times-Square.h853497.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Ash Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llandudno-Hotels-Grand-Ash-Hotel.h1969148.Hotel-Information) > > [Exmo Hotel by Olivia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porto-Hotels-Exmo-Hotel.h37247527.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Sant Antoni de Portmany](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sant-Antoni-De-Portmany-Villas.d5760-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) ### Flights > [Flights from Indore (IDR) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/idr/lhr/indore-to-london) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Lisbon District (LIS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/lis/edinburgh-to-lisbon) > > [Flights from Bristol (BRS) to Belgrade (BEG)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/brs/beg/bristol-to-belgrade) > > [Flights from Barcelona (BCN) to Yundum (BJL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bcn/bjl/barcelona-to-banjul) > > [Flights from San Francisco (SFO) to Las Vegas (LAS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/sfo/las/san-francisco-to-las-vegas) > > [Flights from Narita (NRT) to Melbourne (MEL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/nrt/mel/tokyo-to-melbourne) ### Cars ### Activities > [Things to do in St. Helier](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-St-Helier.d4306.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Croatia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/theme-holidays/all-inclusive-holidays/43/Croatia) ### General > [Visit Altura](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Altura.dx6046510) > > [Visit West Drayton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/West-Drayton.dx10519) ---
