10/10 Excellent
Superb in every way. This former Penang shophouse has deservedly won awards as Malaysia’s best boutique hotel. The location is excellent, and the decor lovely, but it is the service and the staff that take it well beyond 5 stars. Over our 10 night stay we were made to feel simultaneously like family and celebrity VIPs. A bonus is the 4-times Michelin recognized Italian restaurant (Il Bacaro) on site.

This hotel is so new, they are still completing some renovations. That being said, i barely noticed it at all as the majority of my stay was quiet. I appreciated that everything felt new and clean. The staff are so kind. I wasn’t feeling well and everyone I met had checked in on me. They would also do their best to give you recommendations on places to go and eat if needed. There is a laundromat steps from the hotel and great food options next door if you want to eat near the hotel. Even walking...
