Great hotel for a family trip, the family room is so spacious so four of us don't feel cramped. The hotel is located near tourist spots and foodies (culinary) that we have tried and like so much. Great hotel at a strategic location.

Arriving at the hotel from the airport, it felt very comfortable and then check-in was very easy, taking the elevator felt safe and entering the room looked clean including the toilet which had a toilet spray, complete bathroom amenities and when asking for additional drinking water it was immediately sent by housekeeping. On the other hand, the staff who cleaned the room every day made swan and monkey ornaments from towels as well as small letters saying good rest and others that I have never seen in any hotel even in any country. We enjoyed staying at this hotel for the 2nd time and will continue to stay when we go to Penang, thank you.

The hotel is located near komtar and 1st avenue mall and accessible from other night street food. The spread in the breakfast was good as it has cereals, ham, Asian food and pantries. It would be nice to have more Danish selection instead of croissant. The staff in the breakfast was attentive and excellent service. The tv in the room hang when watching youtube. Perhaps the WIFI was weak. Since the tv was mounted on a wall, it would be good if it was bigger tv. see photo attached. Excellent service provided by staff during check in and check out. Overall it a pleasant stay.

Very comfortable room. Staff were helpful. We would have liked more help from the restaurant when it came to my wife's need for gluten free food. We tried to have dinner there one night and were offered only one choice which would have been a very basic meal. For breakfast my wife was informed by the staff that "all bread is gluten free", it's not! I would have thought that being part of the Shangri-La group, your staff and kitchen could do better here. Otherwise we had a good stay
