Romantic Hotels in George Town

Everything more than met our expectations .... wonderful stay

Staff and rooms were very good

A Dream Stay at The Edison – Penang’s Best Boutique Hotel! From the moment we arrived at The Edison, we were swept away by its charm and elegance. This boutique hotel, housed in a beautifully restored historic mansion, feels like stepping into a piece of Penang’s rich heritage – but with all the modern comforts you could ever want. The location is simply unbeatable: right in the heart of George Town’s UNESCO heritage center, making it effortless to explore the city’s colorful streets, historic landmarks, and vibrant food scene. The interiors are absolutely gorgeous. Every detail, from the grand entrance to the tranquil courtyard, has been lovingly preserved and tastefully updated. Our room was spacious, airy, and refreshingly cool – a perfect retreat after wandering through the tropical heat. The pool is a hidden jewel – calm, inviting, and surrounded by lush greenery. We spent hours there unwinding. And the complimentary all-day lounge? What a fantastic idea! Whether you need a quick snack, a cold drink, or just a quiet corner to relax, it’s always available and beautifully stocked. But what truly elevates The Edison to a class of its own is the exceptional staff. They are the very soul of this hotel – warm, professional, and endlessly helpful. From the front desk to the housekeeping team, every single person we encountered went out of their way to make us feel welcome and cared for. Their restaurant recommendations were outstanding, and they gave us wonderful tips for excursions that made our stay unforgettable. The Edison isn’t just a hotel – it’s an experience. It combines heritage, comfort, and a level of hospitality that is rare to find. We travel often, but few places have left such a lasting impression. If you’re visiting Penang, don’t even think twice. Stay at The Edison. It’s hands down the best hotel in the city, and we can’t wait to come back!

Fantastique historical mansion. Very nice welcome from the manager who waited for us until 10:15 pm as our flight from KL was delayed. She also Even give us a ride from the mansion to the busy part of George Town to have late dinner ! Thanks again for that 😀 Walking its less than 10 minutes to Love Lane the busy night part. I highly recommend !

It was probably the most enjoyable of all my trips. That's because the hotel desk staff was friendly, responsible and efficient. I would especially like to thank Theva and Gini. Thank you so very much for all your help.
