"We had a really good stay at Jazz Hotel Penang. The reservation staff were very polite, friendly and helpful. The service was excellent — whenever we needed anything, the staff responded quickly and took care of it. I also really appreciated the free parking. The complimentary water bottles were surprisingly large, which was a nice touch! Our room was very spacious, and the view was amazing. We could see both the sea and the city from our window, especially beautiful in the evening. Overall, we had a very comfortable and pleasant stay. Great service, nice room and a beautiful view. Highly recommended!"

"We chose this hotel to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and it was truly a memorable experience. The hotel offers an excellent range of facilities and activities for both adults and children. There’s a mini theme park, kids’ playground, Adventure Zone, and the beach is just nearby, making it a great choice for a relaxing yet fun-filled family getaway. We were also impressed with the breakfast selection. There was a wide variety of delicious food, and everything we tried was enjoyable. The only thing we felt was missing was a sea-view room. Unfortunately, our room did not face the sea, which would have made our anniversary stay even more special. Overall, we had a wonderful time and really enjoyed our stay. The combination of great facilities, delicious food, and a beautiful seaside location made our anniversary celebration truly special. We would definitely consider coming back again!"

Whether you are here for business leisure or a long term stay you will find yourself immersed in the unique charm of Penang with iconic street art cultural hotspots and bustling markets at your doorstep.

"We had a lovely staycation here and really enjoyed the overall atmosphere of the hotel. The lighting was beautiful, everything was clean, and the hotel had a really pleasant scent, which made the whole stay feel very relaxing. I would also like to give a special mention to Krisma from the front desk. She was very kind and helped to sanitize my friend’s injured finger. We really appreciated her thoughtfulness and assistance. However, the room service experience was quite disappointing. We ordered our own food delivery and requested two sets of plates and cutlery by calling room service. We requested the plates in the early evening, but by the time they finally arrived, it was already completely dark outside. Both of us had already finished eating by sharing what we had while waiting. I completely understand that the hotel may have been busy, but waiting nearly an hour for two sets of plates and cutlery was quite unexpected, especially since we had already finished our meal by the time they arrived. I hope the response time for simple room service requests can be improved in the future. The sauna room was also under maintenance during our stay, although this did not really affect us as we did not plan to use it anyway. Overall, we really liked the hotel and enjoyed our stay. The atmosphere and cleanliness were excellent, and with some improvement in the service response time, I think the experience could be even better."

Breakfast was so good, and they even let us know the night before to set up the breakfast for us the next morning. Every night when we came back, we got the warmest notes from them and it made us feel so special. We came here for our short honeymoon and we loved every bit of it. Highly recommend this place to anyone especially those planning for honeymoon or couple escape."

"This is actually my 3rd time staying here, and I guess that says a lot! 😂 I love their bed and pillows so much that apparently my husband and I just keep coming back here as if there are no other hotels in Penang anymore hahaha. The vibe and environment are great, the service is good, and the staff are always so friendly. Honestly, I don’t have any issues at all with my stay. Everything has been pleasant and comfortable, and I already know I’ll be coming back again! Also, if you’re staying here, you HAVE to try the In-Room Dining. There’s this burger called “The Beast Burger” (if I remember the name correctly), and it was honestly heaven. The last time I stayed here, I ordered it twice because it was THAT good. Definitely recommend giving it a try! Overall, another great stay, and I’m sure this won’t be my last. ❤️"

"The room was good; not luxurious, but it met all basic needs, including USB outlets which saved me the hassle of not having an adapter. Cleaning was prompt and thorough. The staff were quite welcoming, and there was a young lady at the front desk who spoke some Chinese. Breakfast didn't have a huge variety, but there was enough to fill up. The pool water was clean, and they vacuumed it daily. There was a performance on Friday night. The beach is nice for a stroll, but I wouldn't recommend swimming in the sea. They have their own mini-mart, and if you turn right out of the hotel, there's a FamilyMart. A 10-minute walk will get you to restaurants, bars, and a small, not-too-busy shopping complex. Turning left, you'll find more restaurants, and a 15-minute walk leads to a food court, supermarket, and various shops. There's a bus stop right outside, and taxis are easy to get. It's about a 40-minute ride to George Town and Penang Hill, and around 50 minutes to the airport."

this hotel is good overall, but when we arrived, they told us that we didn't have a booking with them and they couldn't locate our booking and details. the room was also said to be taken, and they are waiting for a cancellation in order to get our room. There is a lot of confusion among staff. some visitors were told to leave their rooms once they have entered. we waiting 1 hr 30 min to get our room. so check in was at 4.30pm. parking was also very inconvenient, as we had to park at the basement, which was impossible to even get one if you came into the hotel late and a T&G card was also needed to get validated before leaving the hotel if we wanted a free spot. Room was very spacious and clean. the tea and coffee was hard like its never been changed.

The location is quite convenient. They upgraded me to a family room, even though I didn't really need it as I was traveling alone. What I don't understand is why the shower dispenser had lotion instead of conditioner; that needs improvement. Breakfast was very rich and there was plenty to eat: bread, noodles, chicken, fish, vegetables, fried rice, coffee, and juice.

I had a truly satisfying experience. First, let's talk about the location. There's a night market right downstairs. For breakfast, there's an excellent coffee shop nearby that serves Kaya toast and local specialties at reasonable prices – perfect for a morning meal. The night market offers a great variety of local food options for dinner, which is a fantastic experience. The hotel is also conveniently located for exploring all the attractions in George Town, whether you choose to walk or take a Grab. Now, a special mention for the hotel itself. Everything from the ambiance, room layout, and especially the concierge service and the professionalism of the staff, was outstanding. Although the rooms show their age, they are incredibly clean, well-maintained, and smartly designed. It was a wonderful experience overall, and I highly recommend booking here. If I visit Penang again, I will definitely stay at this hotel. Many thanks to the hotel for their thoughtful, attentive, and professional service!

The hotel boasts a simple yet stylish design with complete facilities, including a pool bar. It's clean, and the service is attentive. The only minor downside is that the soundproofing isn't great, being right by a main road. Overall, it offers excellent value for money.

The front desk is on the 20th floor. The location is just okay; it's about a 15-minute walk to the livelier areas, which is acceptable. The price itself is very good, and the overall place is comfortable and clean, except for some stains on the sofa which might be hard to clean but don't look great. The swimming pool and gym on the 22nd floor are small but well-equipped, offering all the basic necessities for a relaxing time! The room is spacious, bright, and clean, with all the necessary amenities, including an iron to smooth out wrinkled clothes from your luggage. The shower has good hot water and strong pressure. The only minor complaint would be that the soundproofing isn't the best, but it's not terrible either, so it's within an acceptable range!

What I liked: quick and convenient communication with the administrator during check-in. The room offered good value for money. What I didn't like: The pool rules weren't supported by its infrastructure. There's nowhere to change into dry clothes, but you're not allowed to leave in wet ones. The floor in front of the pool gets scorching hot in the sun, yet they require you to walk barefoot, even without slippers. They even came up with a dress code for visiting.

The hotel is located in the old city. The front desk and exterior are decent, but the room facilities are quite basic... I'd say it's on par with a 3-star hotel in China, or a standard budget chain like Home Inn. If the price is between 300-500, it's acceptable, but anything higher and you'll definitely be disappointed. There are plenty of good restaurants nearby within walking distance, so you don't need to include breakfast; there are many local specialties around.
