Not far from the airport, 12 miles. Just a walk down to Restoran Sup Hameed, where you can have lunch. We would love to go back when visiting George Town. Free parking on-site was provided.

Convenient Location and Affordable Price
This hotel is conveniently located near many local eateries and attractions. It is also situated close to bus routes including free tourist bus. The free breakfast is basic but acceptable, and the swimming pool is clean. The room is spacious and bright, and the staffer is helpful, making this hotel a good fit for business and holiday trips on a budget.
The room furnishing is quite old and stained in the carpet, curtains, and chairs. Cleanliness is average.

Convenient location and delicious breakfast. The hotel's central location allowed us to explore the city with ease and indulge in local food nearby. The breakfast offered a great selection and the quality was excellent. Additionally, the room was clean and comfortable, providing us with a relaxing stay during the busy Christmas period.
Loud noises and outdated facilities. The soundproofing was a bit poor so we could hear the street noise and people talking in the hallway. Furthermore, some facilities appeared outdated and in need of an upgrade. Despite these drawbacks, our stay was overall satisfactory and we would consider staying again in the future.
