East Indies Mansion

The historic ambience. Very friendly and helpful staff. Little extra details like afternoon tea.

We spent 3 nights at the mansion and we really loved to stay there. The room was really spacious and comfortable, the bathroom clean and practical (we really like the bath gel and the shampoo) and the staff really nice. Sandra was particularly kind to us, taking the time to explain some particularities of the Malaysian culture and population, giving us good tips on what to do of our days. If you ever go to Penang, I can only recommend you to stay at this mansion as it is also perfectly located to discover the city!

The hotel is stunning. Perfect location in the old town and the hotel itself is a converted 19th century mansion which has retained all its charm, with little open air courtyards. You could easily forget you are in a busy city as it is an oasis. The staff are exceptional, Tom is friendly and polite and Sandra gave us loads of useful tips. We accidentally left a child’s teddy when we checked out and Tom drove 40 minutes to give him back to us in his own time after work. I can’t say highly enough of the place. Best hotel we’ve stayed in.

Hotel full of history very comfortable,delicious breakfast worthy for a try
