"An old building with some of its history displayed around the complex. The rooms are a good size with a comfortable bed, good shower, small bar fridge, and a filtered water tap. Fantastic breakfast buffet. Short walk from the ferry terminal and to main areas of old Georgetown."

"Our stay at the Qing Suites was so wonderful, we could not have asked for a better experience. The history of the building, as well as the Blue Mansion, is fascinating, and adds to the magic of the place. The room was superb - clean and comfortable, with a lovely private courtyard. The main courtyard, where a delicious breakfast was served, is stunning. The staff deserve a special mention - attentive, kind, and always cheerful, and made our stay extra special."

Staff were always friendly, welcoming and extremely helpful. Everything is brand new and lovely. Rooms are elegant and spacious with an excellent shower. Great location for walking to Little India, Little China, the heritage area, jetties, street art, and many eateries of all kinds. Beautiful rooftop infinity pool with towels and shower.

Its a wonderful building with very pleasant staff. Limited food options, but many local places to eat. Rooms are lovely, with lots of space. Road noise can be an issue, but wasnt for me.

Nearly a 2 week stay at Ascott Gurney. A lovely hotel with great facilities. Rooms were spacious and clean.. Lovely downstairs bar / reception area. Swimming pool area was great.. separate covered pool area for children to use..gym well equipped and with good air con.
Location of the hotel is really good. You can walk into George Town if you want (approx 40 minutes) or take a taxi which won't cost a lot. Opposite the hotel is a recently completed park / walking area, very pleasant. Shopping...

There are many boutique hotels out there these days, some much better than others, but the Edison George Town has to be up there as one of the best I have stayed in. Smack in the heart of colonial George Town is this wonderfully renovated hotel, brought back to life by the new owners.
The restoration of the hotel has been extremely well done and attention to detail impeccable throughout. Our bedroom was well furnished and comfortable, the bathroom, spacious with fine smelling gels and shampoos...

Pros: clean room , comfortable bed, selection of pillows if needed, close to eating places around Georgetown
Cons: carpark leading to lobby only by stairs so difficult for guests with big luggage and elderly folks to climb 2 flight of stairs. Guests need to drop off big luggage and elderly folks at the lobby reception before heading to carpark
- long queue to check in due to 3 staffs working
- no instructions on how to use room phone as the direct button for ‘housekeeping’ isn’t working.

We stayed here for 2 wonderful nights.
The hotel features in the World Boutique Hotel Awards Collection 2015 and rightly so. With 11 beautiful bedrooms, library, roof terrace, stylish traditional design and friendly staff who make every effort made to accommodate customers exacting requirements this as good as it gets. Just don't expect an olympic sized swimming pool, gymnasium and conference facilities.

Wonderful stay here, a real gem in the middle of Georgetown. Everything is within walking distances and the hotel is well located. Breakfast was great. Room was comfortable with a lovely bathroom area. Would recommend to all.

Hotel is a non-smoking hotel, but for some reason one of the rooms originally located which was on the 4th floor smelt of smoke. Asked to be moved to a diff room straight away and they accommodated straight away and even told us to wait for assistance with new key and help with luggages. Second room we got was much better and actually the beds were huge. Nice ameneties and bathroom comes with everything that you need. Breakfast comes with good variety of choice too.

I cannot recommend this hotel enough. The property is beautiful, but it’s the staff and service that truly set this place apart. Throughout my stay, all the staff were incredibly attentive, helped me find my way around the best local spots, and had the most positive and helpful attitude all round.
The location was also perfectly placed in Georgetown, close to all the tourist spots whilst not being on a busy or noisy road.

Areca Hotel was delightful, full of character, so much nicer than the high rise hotels we have been staying in so far on this trip. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, not only with a welcome drink, but an invitation to afternoon tea each afternoon of our stay. The room was small, but adequate and freshened every day inclcluding clean towels etc.

The hotel is located in the city center. You can totally walk from one place to another within minutes. You can also find lots of food stalls with reasonable pricing around the city.
