Basically everything: location is perfect, close to the busy streets with pubs and bars on one side, local food on the other; bus station to national park 2 minutes away if you don't feel like taking a cab. The receptionist guy was super friendly, super smiling, gave us good tips to find places;

This is where you want to stay in Penang; the kind of boutique hotel that is a part of the history and culture of George Town. A great spot to start walking from with lots of great food options around but still quiet enough for a good night’s sleep.

A quaint heritage hotel that’s positioned well in the center of Geroge Town. I was able to visit all sites in the Heritage City by foot within 5-10 minutes. I also like the room details and how the areas are kept tidy.

Wonderful atmospheric hotel, very clean and walking distance to all the popular attractions in Georgetown. Surrounded by many restaurants and shops. Lovely Peranakan decor. Very helpful staff and nice, hot breakfast. Suitable for guests without cars as there is no parking space.
