The whole ambience is very hip ,colourful, relaxing n casual. Very young management team and everyone there makes u feel like a friend. Rooms are compact n cosy. Super clean indeed.

Poor checkout experience - when I checked out the room, I have left one of the keys in the room. Then the staff at the reception told me to “Go get your key”. I was carrying a lot of luggage and forgot to get the key when I checked out because I was always using one key. I understood he might have a long day, but I would also appreciate more politeness from the staff but not such a cold and rude attitude…overall, the service at this place is so so. The staff at the hotel are not so welcoming.
The hotel surrounding area is also very noisy.
The restaurants nearby often play live music until midnight 12 AM. There are prayers from the mosque every morning at 6 AM for around 5 minutes. So if you are sensitive to sound and have insomnia problems, I won’t recommend this hotel.
For the room, I booked a room with twins beds. But the room is so small that they basically put the two beds together without any space in between. In short, if you have more luggage, the room maybe too small for two people.
Having said that this hotel is in a good location, and close to the city centre and near all the key shopping areas and restaurants. Price is also reasonable.
Very Good

What I like about this hotel are the following - location, automated parking, provision of shuttle service to breakfast spots since the hotel does not offer breakfast. Their staff are also very helpful as they offer advice (such as whether to utilise morning shuttle service to breakfast spots, how to use automated parking within the hotel) and suggestions to guests.
Upon arrival at the check-in counter, their staff offered cool drink to guests and this is what I observed sets itself apart from other hotels. The room is comfortable too and having 2 aircon units at separate spaces and ability to turn off is a plus. The view from the pool is nice too. Overall, it is an enjoyable stay and there is nothing that I do not like.

Located in the heart of George Town, the hotel offers a blend of modern luxury and local charm, making it a great base for exploring Penang.
Check-in and Service: The check-in process was quick. We able to early check in because the room was ready.
Rooms: The highlight for me was the view from my room—overlooking the bustling city. The rooms were quiet, ensuring a good night’s rest.
Facilities: The hotel features a beautiful outdoor pool with great views, perfect for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. I also had the chance to visit the fitness center, which was well-equipped. The on-site restaurant offered a variety of both local and international dishes, and I found the breakfast buffet to be particularly impressive.
Location: The hotel is located in a prime area, just a short walk from Penang’s vibrant street art scene, and it’s easy to explore nearby cafes, shops, and cultural sites. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveler to Penang, the location is ideal. Public transport also easy to access since it was near to Komtar
Overall: St. Giles Wembley Penang offers fantastic value for money with its top-notch service, modern facilities, and central location. Whether you're in town for business or leisure, this hotel is a solid choice for your stay in Penang.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a fantastic experience. The room was spacious, offering plenty of room to relax and unwind after a day of exploring. It was well-maintained, clean, and had all the amenities you could need for a comfortable stay.
The location is another major plus—it's ideally situated with several great eateries nearby, so you’re never far from a good meal. Even more convenient, there's a mini mart in the lobby, which is perfect for picking up any snacks or essentials you might need during your stay.
Overall, I’d highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located place to stay. It’s a great value and I’d definitely book again.

My elderly parents stayed at The Gurney during their medical checkup in Penang and accidentally left behind some documents. We emailed the hotel and left a message through booking.com to no avail. Then through a phone call, we got connected to Danesh at the Concierge Department, who then went the extra mile to coordinate among various departments within the hotel, and mailed the document through express courier service. His attentive service is highly appreciated.
Communication was quite seamless and friendly though info is only provided a day before check-in.. Check-in and out was pretty easy. Most amenities are provided within the apartment such as towels, shower gel, shampoo, even toothbrushes. Apartment is quite spacious and all electrical appliances were in working order including a water dispenser, projector (inclu apps like YouTube, Netflix), refrigerator (freezer is top notch 😁), washing machine. Location wise is ok; with Grab, everywhere is pretty accessible. 😁

The place is clean. They provide slippers, shampoo, shower gel, dish washing liquid, hand soap and washing detergent. The rooms are a bit cramped. There is a snack stalls that sell all snacks such as noodles, nasi lemak, kueh etc. Good for breakfast and snacks in between meals.
As we are on 36th, we have a good city view
Overall a nice place to stay in.

Outstanding
KKK247It’s our maiden trip to Penang and I honestly did not have much expectations but our holiday was off to a GREAT start right from arrival. while we looked at photos and write-ups prior, the room was so much larger than we thought. the King bed is 3m wide which is much more spacious than what we’re used to back home—wonderful for us cos we were travelling with a 4yo.
We also hadn’t realised that our room came with lounge access for evening drinks + snacks so that was a nice surprise. The view on the rooftop was breathtaking and we had some really nice photos taken.
Guests also get to access the sister hotel’s facilities, which is a short buggy ride (or walk) away, so that was another pleasant surprise. the pool at G hotel Gurney was more varied and fun for the child, so that was another plus. breakfast spread is also really good. If we were to come back to Penang, i would not hesitate to stay with them again.
GGuest UserHighly recommended.
Superb location,beside got few shopping mall.
Clean room,comfy bed, a lot TV program.
Nice breakfast buffet spread.
Free lounge access and drinks.
Nice lounge setting,cozy,relax,served cake and fruits too.
Staff friendly.
Small pool.
GGuest UserRoom was very clean and had everything you needed, the bed was comfortable and there was netflix on the tv, very good location and there was a mee traik place next to eat, good for dinner. Water, fridge and microwave provided, slippers, shower bag and towel provided as well, and the laundry is FOR FREE! Loved this hostel it had everything needed. :)
GGuest UserArriving in the hotel and checking in was simple, friendly and fuss free. They were kind to my requests and assigned me a high floor sea view room, thank you. JASMEEN at the front office is very helpful, friendly and kind. My room is beautiful and the size is just nice, i only wish the bathroom has a view instead of sealed up in frosted glass. The spa and swimming pool is on the 11 floor, the pool is very refreshing to swim in the afternoon, but it would have been nicer to face the sea than the city. Breakfast is very delicious, the host Mr.BALU is always there, smiling and guiding you to your table. BOHARAJ also serves everyone with a smile. I enjoy my stay here very much for 5 days and 4 nights. I will stay here again when i come back to Penang. The location is very good as it is just a short walk away to all the great street food !
GGuat PingBy the time we reach hotel from airport just pass 1pm, but we still go to check in try whether is the room ready. Luckily room was ready and we able to leave our luggage and head to next destination.
The room overall is ok, the only problem is the piping whereby it easily get choke. The basin waste water take time to clear.
But not a big issue, as the location is very great just few mins walk to one of the local night market. A lot of restaurant nearby.
Will choose this hotel again, if we plan to visit penang again.
GGuest UserStayed here one night in family suites with 2 rooms with my 2 kids, the hotel is not far from Komtar penang. Parking is not an issue even for our MPV, their rotating car park with escalator can move the car into empty slot. Check-in is fast and we stayed at level 19th with nice city and some ocean view. Room is very big with a living room, master room with big washroom and changing cabinet, and another connecting room. Wifi is fast and there are 19 tv channels to choose from. Next morning we went for their gym at level 22, not very big but good enough with 5-6 workout machines. Breakfast is at level 21 buffet styles, choice is just nice, not many but food is ok with reasonable price, only RM21 per pax.
GGuest UserIt started off rough. Got into the hotel early to leave our luggage and the guy manning the check in was cold, standoffish, and didn’t even bother replying to our pleasantries. When we returned, a misunderstanding ensured. Cos of my earlier encounter, I was just unreasonable. But thank goodness for Suhaila (I think) and her manager - they deescalated the situation with grace and aplomb. That bump aside, I had a lovely time. Was in room 213. Initially I was worried because I have read about noise issues coming from the club next door. But either the club was closed or the soundproofing worked, there were no disturbances. We slept like babies. The room was beautiful, and the location is amazing. This hotel is highly Recommended. Just don’t bother to pay extra for the breakfast. That was just too sad. We tried it on our last day in the hotel as we were leaving early for the airport. It was dismal.
GGuest UserI have stayed in many hotels and even I'm also a hotelier. Requested for early check in at least 15 minutes earlier but the reception strictly allowed to check in after 3pm only. There must be some give and take with guest, then only we can thoroughly enjoy the hotel and service. If the room is ready, please allow the guest to check in abit early. It's not compulsory but it will help to make the guest happy with customer service.
AAnonymous UserThe location of the hotel is remarkable, very good, convenient to go everywhere. Downstairs is next to a breakfast shop, the roast meat and white chicken are absolutely delicious, especially delicious.
The hotel is very clean, and the accommodation is satisfactory. It is a good choice to only sleep and mainly go out for fun. The only dissatisfied waitress who came down to open the door for us was thin and wearing a nose stud, very arrogant and impolite. The slightly fatter waitress responsible for checkin is very good, and the male waiter who cleans the room is also very good.
GGuest UserThe hotel is quite old and the maintenance has not been kept up to maintain service level, e.g. aircon that is not cold, temperature cannot be adjusted because the knob is missing, closet doors that cannot be closed, power plug that is unsecured, dirty kettle.
