Located within the UNESCO World Heritage Site of George Town, Ren I Tang Heritage Inn is located in a restored building from the 1800s. Spanning an area of 3 shop house units, the property features free WiFi, a restaurant and small museum on the ground floor, which used to be a medical hall. This is a beautifully restored building in Little India! The hotel rooms are comfortable and have an AC (although you probably won't even need it, given the excellent construction). Staff were incredibly helpful, providing advice on the local area and even helping us get local street food when we had to leave before the breakfast buffet opened. The breakfast buffet is amazing, providing both Western options and local specialties. The location is amazing as well, in easy walking distance to shops, eateries and sights as well as the free shuttle bus.

The Millen Penang, Autograph Collection is in Georgetown, just 3 minutes' drive from the New Central Business District. It has spacious suites with free Wi-Fi. On-site facilities include an outdoor saltwater swimming pool, a fitness centre and pampering spa treatments. Actually I just published a recommendation post about this hotel..I have to say it’s one of my favorite part of my Penang journey. Everything is just so perfect. I choose hotels mostly depend on the details, and during my stay inside, there’s nothing I can say dislike👍🏻 Clean, bright, intelligent, with very user-friendly layout and space design, returning to the room has become my everyday expectation .. All staff are highly qualified, all the decorations are fascinating. I will definitely choose it again when next time back to Penang.
