Undoubtedly one of best experiences, if not the highlight of my first visit to Penang and Malaysia in general. Beautiful, elegantly restored property with accommodating staff. Felt extremely safe and at home as a solo woman traveler.

We had an absolutely gorgeous stay at Jawi Peranakan Mansion! I can’t recommend this hotel enough. We stayed for three nights. The room was beautifully designed and comfortable. The staff was extremely helpful, service-minded, and friendly. And we loved cooling off in the pool. We’re recommending this to everyone we know traveling to Penang - if you get the chance to stay here, don’t miss out!

The property was really well located in a smart area just on the edge of the old town which allowed us to explore areas we would have not thought to look up. The hotel is very spacious and cute, but the pool is the real gem, especially after a day exploring. Great dining close by in all directions

If you're looking for a stay that feels like a genuine step back in time, Jawi Peranakan Mansion is a total gem. It's less like a hotel and more like a beautifully preserved piece of Penang's history. I stayed in one of the Mansion Rooms: The rooms are stunning, filled with character and old-world charm. While the beds were firm, they were still very comfortable. Being in a historic building, you'll hear some road noise in the mansion rooms, but it didn't bother me-it just felt like part of the city's energy. The pool is a wonderful. It's the perfect, quiet oasis to cool off after a humid day of exploring. The staff are incredibly lovely and welcoming. Plus, the location is ideal-you're right in the heart of George Town's best food and culture. Authentic, charming, and perfectly located. I'd go back in a heartbeat. Probably one of my favourite places in a long time.

The mansion has been beautifully restored to its former glory and it was a total delight to stay in it. The staff are just wonderful, in particular Priya and Steph, who gave us useful directions on eating places and shopping, and were just so obliging. Great to watch the video on the restoration works.

A very relaxing stay here. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good location but due to humidity I used ‘grab’ to get around. Beautiful old historic mansion. Highly recommend.

Beautiful mansion

We loved our stay in this beautiful old mansion building. Our room was huge and the antique furniture added to the beautiful decor. The room was very comfortable and clean, but the air conditioning was not very strong and we needed to sleep with a loud fan overnight. The lap pool was a welcome addition and the hotel was an easy walk to lots of great restaurants and to the colonial centre.

What a wonderful property

Saw some previous negative reviews a out this property after my booking. After checked in, all those negative reviews I read were already out of the window . From the room to the front desk and staff, everything and everyone was so surprisingly friendly and comfortable. The location is great too. Walking distance to everything in Georgs town. I am so glad I stayed with this property.

Relaxed and pleasant stay at Jawi P Mansion

We loved our room next to the pool. The property is well maintained and really connects to the heritage experience. Nice lap pool which we used to cool off several times. Staff are extremely pleasant and provided everything we needed. Walkable to some sights and easy pick up by Grab when we needed it. Spoke to a member of staff about breakfast and they said they hoped to bring back this option in the future. A very relaxed stay and would definitely recommend Jawi Peranakan Mansion.

Safe in room didn't work at first but got it settled later after staff passed us two sets of keys to reset (poor service). Not much of a welcome. An old-style accommodation, cosy but frills-less. Pool is really small.
