"The hostel is clean and the rooms are spacious. The staff are fantastic, always very helpful and kind. The location is excellent, just a 10-minute walk from Komtar station. Right in front of the hostel there is a restaurant where you can eat one of the best nasi kandar dishes. The price of the hostel is very affordable. I highly recommend it, and if I ever come back to George Town, I would definitely stay here again. "

Would stay more days in the future trip to Penang."

"I had a good stay at Tido's. Highlights have definitely been the easy-going reception staff as well the lovely common area on the top floor. I would recommend anyone visiting Penang to stay here. It's centrally located and has a 24 hour reception. The staff are accommodating and the area itself is convenient. The only wish for improvement is for the toilets and bathrooms to be cleaned daily. But in general the hostel is well kept :)"

Top Penang Hotel Reviews

Eastern And Oriental Hotel

Eastern And Oriental Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Staff were welcoming and helpful. Standout lady was Kha Mun, efficient and remembered details about us ( hopefully because we were nice! ), fun and so professional. Room in the heritage wing was great, spacious and old style which we prefer to modern rooms which lack character. Bottled water provided daily, complimentary mini bar and wine on arrival. Loved the daily offerings of canapés and a drink between 6pm and 7pm. Such lovely tasty nibbles and we looked forward to it each day. Pool was quiet and well maintained with comfortable sun loungers and iced water on offer. Breakfast was a gentle start to the day, no mobile phone conversations allowed which was fab as some people just talk so loudly and interrupt the ambience. Lovely coffee. Attentive staff. Exemplary. A great hotel."
