The room was extremely spacious and spotlessly clean. Having a washing machine in the room was a great convenience. The location was excellent, making it easy to explore the area. I do wish there had been a bit more variety in the breakfast selection, but overall, I had a wonderful stay and would definitely visit again

This was the second time we stayed at the Ascott within a month. We were in Penang for over three weeks to celebrate the Chinese New Year with our family in Penang. We decided to stay here again on the same trip. We like the amenities offered by Ascott such as the in-room washer and dryer, spacious room layout and excellent staff service. We walked to Gurney Plaza shopping mall and avoided the headaches of finding parking in the crowded shopping mall garage. This is a great hotel and we will certainly stay here again in the future.
