5/5 Excellent

"Suite was fabulous, nice lobby and all staff were very friendly. Sattar who took care of our room during our stay was excellent. Only downside was there’s only 2 elevators for 24 floors."

"Whatever expectations I had were met and exceeded beyond my imagination. I really enjoyed my stay at the Park Royal resort in Penang. The staff is very warm and welcoming and so very helpful, especially Osman and Ali. The property is gorgeous and is very well kept. I definitely will come back to the Park Royal resort anytime I’m in Penang. Thank you for a wonderful stay!"
