The Bayview is a good hotel, well located with decent dining options and friendly staff. The rooms are big and have everything you would need inside them. The hotel is just a little dated however and needs a bit of TLC. Overall would happily stay here again.

Don't trust the pictures they posted. Good location with service, but the hotel needs a lot of major updates. Moldy ceiling & peeling wall paint. AC starts leaking 4 am in the morning on the last night during the stay. I don't think I will stay here again unless there are major improvements.

Was Hacked and Had Crdit Card Charged!

Place is in rundown condition. But, for the price it is fair. My problem, and I should say my big problem, was that I was hacked when using their QR code to order room service. They have a third party app that stole my credit card info. I spent a day in the police department and making expensive calls to my credit card company etc.. AND THE WORST PART - no attention or apology from manager. No compensation and no care at all. IT came to the room and they said they would remove the QR codes from the hotel. They did not. Unacceptable. I received charges from some company!

Honest Bayview Hotel Penang Review

Bayview Hotel Experience for check in is ok. But went into the room, amenities are not provided fully. 1) Toothbrushes and toothpaste (booked two rooms, one room have it, the another don't have it 2) Both rooms only provided with bath towels. Hand towels are not provided. 3) Carpets are dirty, don't appear vacuumed for a super long while. 4) TV has no proper channel. I have decided to manual re-tune all the channels via the settings and it finally got some proper channels, but not according to the channel list shown.

The hotel is a bit old. The location is a bit off the center of George Town but still walkable if you don't mind. The swimming pool is on the small side. The rooftop restaurant is great. You can see the whole Geroge Town almost. There is a big night food court right next to the hotel where you can get all kinds of food for dinner.

Stay was nice but certainly it could use some facelift. Lift lobby reeks of cigarettes and the TV uses AV connection that don't really have options and the options that worked had very poor reception. Not much of accessible power sockets close to bed and worst of all there was no lighting options if you want to have some light to work on something. I have seen some moody pubs have better lighting.
