Macalister Mansion is a really cool place to stay. Each of its only 8 rooms are unique. We stayed in room 3 which was amazing. The bar and lounge areas are quite funky. But dont expect to meet a lot of other guests given only 8 rooms in the hotel. ##### Jeff Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Jeff Aug 24, 2017 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness #### One of a kind We booked is hotel because it is one if a kind which has only 8 rooms. A quite retreat/getaway for our anniversary. The facilities is great but we didn't use them much. One thing I want to touch on is the cleanliness of the room. The cushions on the chairs and carpet have stains all over. I even called the front desk about the stains and they told me they are aware of them. I was surprised that they still vacant for guest. I don't think this room should be posted for guest to stay until the room is cleaned. We stayed in Room 6\. ##### Jeff Stayed 1 night in Aug 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jas Aug 17, 2017 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Room nice but hotel grounds lacking The plus for this hotel are the rooms: nicely designed, upscale, roomy and comfortable. The downside is the outdoor space : is underutilized so outdoor tables and chairs are dirty and wet long after a rain. The location is on a street with views of a political party headquarters and a group of shophouses- no Georgetown charm. With a little more effort, they could improve the landscaping. Although the hotel is rather new, signs of wear and tear visible- peeling paint outside and stained carpet inside. ##### Jas Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa, Queensland May 28, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hotel, very nicely appointed rooms. Enjoyed our time at Macalister Mansion, great hotel staff, & room facilities. ##### Melissa ### 8/10 Good #### D & J , Toronto Canada May 17, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent location for us! Excellent room / amenities! Unfortunately they accommodate smokers in lounge & bar facilitating stale smoke in hallways & breakfast dining rooms. ##### D & J ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jack, Singapore May 2, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fantastic hotel though a bit far from the city Fantastic hotel with a nice, spacious and comfortable room. The room is well-maintained and the amenities are luxurious. You get to choose from the different types of pillow provided. We booked Room #2 that has minimum photos on the internet. The room is well furnished and big. We loved the bathroom that is so pretty and spacious too, with the rain shower and tub! The room overlook the swimming pool and makes for a nice morning view! ##### Jack ### 4/10 Poor #### Kukkie, Vietnam Jan 31, 2017 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### 窓問題 対応はしてくれたが、客室の窓は固定されていて、客自ら窓を開けることができない。常に窓外の木戸が閉まった状態で昼間でも客室は暗く、防災上も不安があった。 木戸を開けるように、ホテル側に強く訴えて開けてもらったが、そんなに窓が必要なら、事前に開くか確認するように言われた。 ##### Kukkie ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robin Jan 1, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing rooms and decor, great service, great food We spent 2 nights at the Macalister Mansion and loved it. The decor throughout the common areas is spectacular. They have a whiskey and cigar lounge with a great selection if that's your thing, but food in the restaurant is delicious and reasonably priced. We didn't get the chance to check out their fine dining option, but I'm guessing it was good too. The bar is a great place to have a drink, and the wine selection is good. Service was excellent, pool was nice, room was delightful, and mini bar was complimentary, what more can you ask for? ##### Robin ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 12, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Imposantes Großraum zum Ausruhen und Genießen Es fehl dem Hotel nur wenig um es als 5 Sterne zu kategorisieren. Der Concierge Service zum Beispiel. Es befindet sich relativ zentral zu den historischen Plätzen. Das Frühstücksraum ist in einem Café-Restaurant, wo man sich einem Frühstück zusammenstellen kann. Das Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Der Pool ist ungewöhnlich vor dem Hotel, aber sauber und von Gebäuden umgeben. Insgesamt ein positiver Eindruck. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### MOHD SUKARNO, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Aug 20, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The Best hotel in Penang !! This is a very Chic 8 suite boutique hotel which has the coolest and chic decorations of all the hotels in Penang. The bar area reminded me of Sketch's in London with all the quirky decor items. It is the most expensive hotel in Penang but well worth it for the experience!! The cafe is an excellent place to spend the lazy afternoon with some tea/coffee and the tasty pastries. And of course the fine dining restaurant is the place to go to impress your guests in Penang with its chic decor and expensive set menus and fine wines. ##### MOHD SUKARNO ### 8/10 Good #### Sul, seoul Aug 18, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### lovely place It was lovely to stay. liked everything. but there are only 8rooms. felt empty and scary sometimes. ##### Sul ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Apr 19, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Macalister Mansion lives up to its reputation of being a beautiful hotel. With only 8 rooms, you will have an exclusive personalised experience. The only points I think is worth being mindful are: (a) the location of the hotel is a bit further out of the UNESCO site (b) the hotel has a proper restaurant, and breakfast is served there. If you like hotel buffets, this might not be your cup of tea. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### tamimi, shah alam Mar 24, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Unexpected deposit One of the best hotels we have stayed in so far . But we were caught by surprise when we had to pay a deposit of rm900/night!!! (Although we had made full payments ahead). The room was MAGNIFICENT! Spacious , comfy, and the complimentary snacks were high-end. They even have a turn down service which we didn't ask for. the staffs were so friendly and accommodating. ##### tamimi ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 1, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### perfect hotel It was an amazing experience.
