Reviews3.2/ 5
(from 702 reviews)

Good match for:

  • Urban Explorers: Steps from street-art trails, KOMTAR attractions and Rainbow Skywalk for solo discovery.
  • Budget Travelers: Free Wi-Fi, parking and shuttle plus an affordable breakfast buffet at MYR 25.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Luxury Seekers: Three-star service and amenities may not satisfy those seeking upscale resorts.
  • Beach Vacationers: Located inland in Georgetown, not within walking distance of beaches.

Unfortunately my stay here did not start positively. The reception who claimed his name was Zakwan (?) was rude, unhelpful and downright had VERY bad attitude. When talking to me, he blatantly refused to look at me. He kept on saying it was his last day working there, as if to say he could do anything and he has the right to be uncourteous, and nothing would happen to him! The hotel management mad...

Booked last minute on Agoda, got it for under RM100. Arrived late but the male receptionist was welcoming. Parking is limited, but the location’s great — right in the city center. Room was okay for a night’s stay, got a mineral bottle and mini fridge too. Hotel should change the towels and fix the aircond — it was leaking, not very cold, and the towel had a bit of a musty smell. Okay lah for a 3-...

Avoid Sentral Hotel Georgetown Unless You Enjoy Disappointment If you're into stained sheets, sweaty pillowcases, and the thrill of wondering whether your room was actually cleaned—this is the place for you. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the unmistakable scent of someone else's sweat embedded in the linens. Housekeeping's explanation? "New staff probably forgot to change it." Ah yes, the class...

We both are old couples age above 70 plus years. When we check in, the bad receptionist staff ...

I will be staying at this hotel upon return trips to Penang. The service was excellent. I was allowed to check into my room three hours early. The add on package that I purchased did not give me much value as I typically do not use many of the amenities. However for someone who spends time at the hotel the package would be worth the purchase. I received excellent service from the wait person Subb...
