We stayed with the Ascott group numerous times for its cleanliness and well-maintained facilities around the world, and Citadines Connect Georgetown is no exception. The building is renovated from a historical building which gives the hotel a mixture of cultural and contemporary vibe. It's a 3-story newly-built hotel and everything you see is brand new and tidy. The lobby is not large, but there are plentiful spaces to rest for a while. The room we stayed in is Studio Executive, and it's clean enough. The air-conditioning system utilized a touch panel for you to easily adjust to your liking. There are no drinking bottles inside the room but a water dispenser is just in the hallway, both environment-friendly and convenient. One of the things worthy of notice is the tap water system, where hot and cold water may be installed conversely. The hotel itself is located around minutes walk from Komtar neighborhood, and you can easily take buses to the airport or to other areas of Penang via the Komtar terminal. Several malls are also in this area to give you the convenience of shopping. The well-known hawker food centre at Lebuh Presgrave crossroad is also close by, where you can easily grab most of the famous and delicious local dishes here. CAT bus station is also not far from the hotel, and you can tour the UNESCO sites with it for a day trip. Overall, it's an excellent choice to stay here for its brand-new facilities, and its convenience regarding transportation, shopping, and dining.
Stunning stunning hotel in the heart of Georgetown. I have been to Georgetown many times and stayed at its many heritage accommodation offerings. The George on Penang Road is the newest kid on the blocking having opened its doors in December 2022. Like its siblings in the business the George is a conversion of a heritage building but while the others concentrate of showcasing Penang’s rich cultural heritage , the interiors at the George are minimalist & modern. The hotel exudes a cool, fresh vibe and offers a variety of well-appointed rooms. Other facilities at the George include an onsite restaurant, a bar, a decent sized lap swimming pool with a sauna room. The hotel has a car park equipped the parking cages enabling it to expand capacity if needed.
