Location is good close to Gurney Plaza and Paragon Mall. Staff very welcoming right from arrival through to the time to depart. Rooms are well sized and very comfortable. Highly recommended if you are wanting to stay in Penang instead of the beach area at Batu Ferringhi.

Stylish , modern and comfortable. The room is clean , the design feels fresh and the staff were friendly. Loved the rooftop pool and the views from the gravity bar . Great location close to malls, eateries and tourist spots. For me this hotel is perfect for business trips and work travel not really a resort style place.
