The Edison George Town

We've now stayed at Edison George Town for 4 nights. We have found the staff to be very helpful including furnishing recommendations for places to eat: ask Albert. The hotel is in an excellent location with a bustling hawker food center across the street: open for dinner only. The lounge area ( available 24/7) for all guests is very comfortable. We use frequently to cool down and enjoy refreshments after a day of visiting Penang's sights. I highly recommend Edison George Town.

Beyond pleased with the overall experience at the Edison boutique hotel in Georgetown on Penang Island in Malaysia. Big shout out to Albert Tan for the very warm welcome email providing an abundance of recommendations and relevant details on the best dining options around based on various preferences all clearly documented for my convenience upon arrival. These little gestures are really appreciated especially after a full day of travel. When my Uber pulled up to the hotel, Albert immediately greeted me and offered to assist me with my heavy belongings. Right after the check in process, the staff gave me a brief tour of the hotel even educating me on the history of this Peranakan mansion that's been renovated over the years with the core historical components kept in tact. Lounge access and complimentary breakfast are included in my stay with complimentary snacks and beverages throughout the day. The hotel room was extremely spacious, clean and comfortable considering the age of the building. It is situated a bit in the quieter part of town, but it is still within walking distance to many attractions. Catching a GrabCar is also convenient and affordable even if it is only a 5-min ride away.
