Courtyard Penang

While the prices at this hotel are higher than those at Ascott, the room size is only about half of what you'd find at Ascott. Despite this, the overall experience remains comfortable. The location is excellent, with many places and restaurants within walking distance.

This hotel is pretty new, comfortable, clean and located in the heart of the city. Next to the hotel is one of the famous biscuits shop in Penang. However, the better biscuits is “Him Heang” which is not far away from hotel too. Within walking distance you can get to many eateries, convenience shops and cafes. However, be careful of durian stalls near the hotel. Always check and confirm final prices before buying/eating. Should try local Penang durian varieties like green skin, hor lor, ang he, etc which are cheaper (less than RM60 per kg depend on the daily price) and nice too. Musang king and black thorn are overrated, super expensive and you might not get the real one. If you can walk, it’s easy to walk around the city to enjoy Penang. Else, it is very easy to take a Grab to tour the city with reasonable fare. It is an enjoyable stay for me because the hotel staff took the initiative to decorate my room with balloons and cake to celebrate my birthday. I appreciate the gesture very much. It was a pleasant surprise because I didn’t request the hotel to decorate the room. So, thank you!

Very good deal through Trip. Perfect location whether business or leisure.

Nice hotel with good services, the basement carpark is a bit smelly though.

Room is big and clean. Chill swimming pool

Excellent, very good hospitality! Would love to come again if given the chance!
