Undoubtedly one of best experiences, if not the highlight of my first visit to Penang and Malaysia in general. Beautiful, elegantly restored property with accommodating staff. Felt extremely safe and at home as a solo woman traveler.

If you're looking for a stay that feels like a genuine step back in time, Jawi Peranakan Mansion is a total gem. It's less like a hotel and more like a beautifully preserved piece of Penang's history. I stayed in one of the Mansion Rooms: The rooms are stunning, filled with character and old-world charm. While the beds were firm, they were still very comfortable. Being in a historic building, you'll hear some road noise in the mansion rooms, but it didn't bother me-it just felt like part of the city's energy. The pool is a wonderful. It's the perfect, quiet oasis to cool off after a humid day of exploring. The staff are incredibly lovely and welcoming. Plus, the location is ideal-you're right in the heart of George Town's best food and culture. Authentic, charming, and perfectly located. I'd go back in a heartbeat. Probably one of my favourite places in a long time.

The property was really well located in a smart area just on the edge of the old town which allowed us to explore areas we would have not thought to look up. The hotel is very spacious and cute, but the pool is the real gem, especially after a day exploring. Great dining close by in all directions

Beautiful mansion

We loved our stay in this beautiful old mansion building. Our room was huge and the antique furniture added to the beautiful decor. The room was very comfortable and clean, but the air conditioning was not very strong and we needed to sleep with a loud fan overnight. The lap pool was a welcome addition and the hotel was an easy walk to lots of great restaurants and to the colonial centre.

A beautiful, historic facility and fantastic staff that take care of all your needs. The rooms can use updating and the A/C in our 1st room was too weak (the staff moved us into another room that had better a/c) but restaurants are a short walk away and again, the staff are great.
