Noordin Mews

Our stay at Noordin Mews was outstanding in every way. The shared spaces of the old shophouse are exquisitely renovated and the modern rooms are squeaky clean, spacious and comfortable. The location is perfect, slightly removed from the tourist trap around Armenian Street, but close enough to the center to be able to walk everywhere. The neighborhood is actually quite hip, with plenty places to eat and have a drink. The cool Hin Bus Depot cultural center is just blocks away. The breakfast is delicious and there are new options every morning. The staff is absolutely great, and goes out of their way to make your stay special. They helped us book transfers to the airport, get tables at restaurants and gave us pro tips about where to go and what to do. The plunge pool is such a great perk in Penang's sticky heat. We travelled with two kids and they had a great time. I would highly recommend Noordin Mews. It's honestly one of the best, most genuine hotel experiences we've ever had. ||The hotel is a renovated early 1900s shophouse, so space is limited, as would be expected in a heritage building of its type. Rooms are close to each other, and at times you may hear other guests arriving/leaving, swimming in the pool, or chatting, although we personally never felt that privacy was an issue. Our children made friends with many of the other children staying at the hotel and were very sad to leave, though people seeking complete intimacy and 7 star luxury should perhaps look elsewhere.

We spent three nights here at the start of our holiday, it was excellent. The rooms were comfortable and the beds great with water and some snacks provided. The breakfasts were varied and substantial, the staff also are a credit to the hotel with nothing too much bother.||The location is OK within a 15-minute walk to most places with a few restaurants scattered around and a Seven-Eleven just round the corner.

Noordin Mews is a beautiful well maintained heritage building. Great location. The family room is spacious for 5 people. The beds are comfortable. There are 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, all rooms are pretty and clean. All staff are friendly and helpful. We feel very welcome all the time. Definitely recommend to everyone.

Noordin Mews is excellent and we loved the unique independent charm and the care the staff give to the hotel and its guests. The ‘standard’ rooms around the pool are luxurious with all mod-cons, but retaining a heritage feel. (With the day bed you could definitely squeeze a family of 3 in there, perhaps a young family of four). |The official family room (we stayed in No.1) was above reception and whilst beautiful, was more characterful and slightly less luxurious. I also found it a little noisy from passing rasping motorbikes on occasion, but I’m a light sleeper and no one else complained! Plus they provided ear plugs which helped. |The pool is gorgeous, clean and welcoming and perfect at any time of day. It was always in use.|The breakfasts were large and tasty and whilst they don’t have an onsite restaurant or cafe, they serve drinks (including alcohol) and also allow you to bring food in to eat at their tables. (Which, when we did this, they kindly plates it all up and waited on us like we’d paid them for it!)|It is a dog friendly hotel - we’ve noticed a lot of small-dog-in-a-wheely-bag-love from people in Malaysia and some guests had theirs. However, the dogs were well behaved (if their owners attention to them a little odd!!) and they’re not allowed in the cafe / table areas.|The staff we always on hand and they provided some lovely touches like treats on our pillows to mark both Christmas and New Year. They also provided complimentary wine and cheese to see in New Year and neighbouring fireworks.|We stayed for 5 nights, which we felt 1 or 2 days too long (not the hotel; but the size and heat of Georgetown). But we found lots to do in the end - Noordin Mews is the perfect location to explore the area on foot. Also as a base to go further afield, we did by going to Penang Hill and Escape activity park.|I’d absolutely recommend this place - for individuals, couples or families. (Oh and small-dog-in-wheely-bag-owners).

The hotel was fabulous. Everything about it was perfect. The rooms were immaculate and the attention to detail was amazing. The staff were all so helpful and breakfast was delicious. They catered really well for vegans too. Would highly recommend!!

We are a family of 4 - 2 adults and my children are 14 and 10 years old. Stayed in a room with 2 king? Sized beds. Really wonderful place. The staff at Noordin Mews are all super friendly and helpful. The place is clean and spacious and the location is really good. We love the breakfast too. Everyday, there is a different Asian selection on top of all the standard breakfast sets. Highly recommend this place to any families looking to visit Penang! Just a pity that we didn't take enough good photos to do the place justice!

A superb boutique hotel. Beautifully renovated with quality fittings throughout. Lovely food for breakfast etc and a nice pool. Staff were super friendly and helpful.||Location is handy for exploring the old town and a near by mall has all the fashion shops you might need.

Lovely place to stay. I can honestly say I’ve never felt as welcomed or as spoilt at a hotel before. The attention to detail from the staff is second to none and love that you can bring in your hawker food from elsewhere and they will plate and serve to you. Highly recommended

Great one night stay, though getting a suite upgrade always helps the experience. Clean throughout. Friendly staff. Good breakfast. Great decor. Good, free WiFi. A bit removed from the tourist core, but a 10 minute walk to the bus terminal. Recommended.
