This hotel is a nice little, I believe 20-room clean hotel with large clean rooms and an amazing friendly staff. In particular, Liza is exceptionally helpful and friendly and if you wish, she can arrange for day tours. Excellent hotel. No complaints whatsoever.

Liza is a truly wonderful manager. She went above and beyond to help us including excellent restaurant suggestions. The hotel is very nicely presented and the beds and sheets great quality. For us the only drawback was the room not having a window. It is a beautiful old restored building so this is the reality for this type of boutique hotel. That said, once the air conditioning was cranked up the room was fine. We would not recommend hiring a driver via the hotel to tour the city. It would be better to go with someone who speaks English and who can explain a bit about the city.

Great location to eating places. All within walking distant. New lane, Kimberley food street. Chowraster markets, Clear Line Nasi Kandar .. all nearby. The hotel is an heritage venue.. the suite are actually adjoining rooms which gives good space and privacy for 4 pax. The wooden antiquity wardrobe doors creaks. And toilet doors creaks too. We stayed at the ground floor rooms facing the parking lot. Could be noisy at night when people talked loudly at the carpark. But it’s just our lock on that particular day. Otherwise it’s super convenient to walk from street to the room.

After 24 hours solid travelling the Terraces was a welcoming sanctuary for us to recover on the first night and thereafter a well located base for our visit to George Town. The hotel only provides rooms which is no problem with so many good eating places around. Everything was very good quality and well maintained. The artwork in the lobby was fun. All in all, a very enjoyable stay.

Great little hotel, very boutique focused, great street art throughout the lobby. Lisa the manager was extremely helpful and gave great advice on where to go and where to eat. Only downside was no bar or anywhere near by to go for a drink but saying there’s plenty of fabulous eateries very close. Would recommend if you want a small and quiet place to stay right in town.

I really enjoyed the property; it was so clean, artistic, and felt like a museum. Also a plus everyone was so helpful. Parking easy right in front in spots, but I didn't drive, and I literally walked to everything while I waited to get check in. Can't wait till they open a bar upstairs. Also if you need car service or tours, they have it for you right at the desk so don't book anything online.
