Love to stay here. I stayed with my husband and daughter, also with my parents (and it is their first time in Penang). Hompton Hotel has upgraded the room for my booking on our first time in Hompton, so my parents were really surprised and happy with the room in Hompton. Really big and very best view. The breakfast has various menus. All of the staff here are also very responsive.

Writing The stay was amazing. Despite the remote location — you need to take a Grab to get to the city centre — the ocean view was absolutely worth it, especially for the price we paid. The room was clean, and the staff was wonderful. I would definitely recommend purchasing the breakfast, as it was excellent. We also received a couple’s discount when purchasing breakfast directly at the restaurant. In addition, we had an amazing dinner at the downstairs restaurant with a beautiful ocean view. On the downside, be careful with the step when entering the bathroom. I also wish there had been more than just two bath towels provided, and another one placed on top of the toilet bowl. It would have been nice to have more than one bottle of combined hair and body wash in the shower as well. My husband used the gym and mentioned that the air conditioning seemed to be turned off all the time — working out in a stuffy room without AC was quite uncomfortable. It also seemed like a very strong air freshener was being used to mask the smell. Overall, it was a great stay, but there is still room for improvement.

This property is quite old, according to our Grab driver it's about 50 years old and it shows. They only have 3 lifts, one of which wasn't in service the entire time we were there. The lifts were slow and crowded. Our room had torn bedding the day we checked in, the bathroom had grime under the sink. This property way past its prime. The only thing they have going for them is its location and the people who work there, service was excellent. Everyone greeted guests with warm smiles. The breakfast buffett was very good, that alone made up for much that is wrong with this hotel.

Loved how spacious my room was. And the view of the beach was lovely. The pool was nice but sadly mostly in the shade, not receiving enough sun. The hotel was located very near a food court, so that was very handy when it came to meals. However, Hompton is situated quite a distance from Georgetown, so it's not so convenient if you have lots of things to do there.

I would rate this as a 3.5-star hotel. The beach by the hotel is quite small, so if you are booking based-on beach access and proximity, I would recommend a hotel either closer to Georgetown or a newer construction (as this hotel has been renovated but is in an older builing. Jazz hotel down the street may be a newer and better choice, but check the reviews first!). What can be improved at this hotel is housekeeping. When we checked in the sheets were severely stained with makeup (not a little bit, the inside/top of the sheets were pink). The bed was changed as requested, but this is an oversight a 4-star rated hotel should not have had. Also housekeeping was typically not done by 5pm or sometimes even by 7pm, when we were gone from the room all day. There was one day where we hit the service room button when we left after 9am and we were back around 7pm and the room hadn't been cleaned, and was skipped that day. Typical room cleaning in hotels is from 10am to 2 or 3pm, but not at this hotel, either the room wasn't cleaned or it was done after 5pm. Lastly, this is more of an issue with the Expedia booking and not an issue with the hotel or hotel management - watch out when booking to be sure your confirmation says "free breakfast". When we booked on Expedia it said free breakfast in red by the room description, but I didn't notice that the confirmation didn't have this noted, as a result we didn't have free breakfast at the hotel and it was 49MYR per person per day.

The shower in my room was broken, the safe didn’t work, the refrigerator didn’t work, the lotion dispenser was empty. 33 floor building, 3 lifts, one of which was broken, and the staff use the guest lifts as well. On my third night the battery in my door gave out so I couldn’t get in my room-which meant two trips to the lobby from one of the top floors, at close to 11 pm. Once the door was fixed, for reasons I still don’t understand, a random staff person showed up and rang the door at 11:30 pm. I don’t know what language he spoke-it wasn’t Malay, Thai, Chinese, English or French. After trying all those I gave up and made him leave. On a more positive note the bed was comfortable. But the hotel overall needs attention to the basics, maintenance is shockingly bad.
