Overall, we liked our stay at The Blue Mansion - the staff is friendly and helpful, and the breakfast is good. We checked in on a Saturday and there was a concert in the open area, which was very close to the rooms. The daily room cleaning was of variable standard.

Really loved everything about this hotel, but mostly the rich history. The team was super attentive, helpful and professional. The room was lovely and very spacious. Unfortunately, we didn’t spend enough time to enjoy the pool, but it looked very inviting. Oh yes… great breakfast too!

This is a lovely hotel with jhrd working & attentive staff. However, if you are looking for an exclusive mansion/boutique hotel experience, you won't find it here. The residence is a combinatiom hotel & tourist attraction with non-guests visiting communal areas throughout the day on amplified guided tours. Not as mindful, considerate or demure as we were hoping for.

I was in Penang about 5 years ago and stayed at the E&O. We came to the mansion for a museum tour and fell in love with it, so I promised myself that if ever I came back, I would stay here. This place is magical. No, you will not find gyms or lifts and you should probably pack lightly as lugging your cases around won’t be easy. However, it is an absolute privilege to be able to stay in one of the 20 rooms. The staff are attentive and the location is brilliant. Walkable to just about everywhere (though super hot). I am just happy that someone had the foresight to restore this place with such thought and love.

An incredible hotel to stay in while in Penang: you are transported back in time in the decor, detailed accurate renovations but with current conveniences and thoughtful touches. We stayed in one of the 2 town houses not the Blue Mansion itself, which we would recommend. ( - the main hotel I would imagine would also be fine, apart from 2 daily tours open to the public although hotel guest areas were roped off.) Our house was ‘Zhang’- a 2 floor original Chinese house beautifully and accurately restored - loved the design and in keeping furniture. Shower was brilliant/ in enormous bathroom, with lovely products. Multiple fans and A/C in bedroom. Washing machine which was handy. There was also daily maid service as in the hotel which was an easy 10 mins walk - but a phone call away, when it was raining brought a car to our door to get us for breakfast. That was excellent and on our early start the day we left, a lovely picnic basket was delivered with goodies to take with us. ALL the staff were polite, smiling and did a great job at welcoming us. As for the city…,loved it- something for all. A favorite in our 3 week trip in SE Asia.

This is a beautiful traditional building which also has a museum. It was used to film some of the scenes in “Crazy Rich Asians”. The building itself is gorgeous, and my room was very comfortable and had all the expected amenities. The breakfast was really nice and the hotel is well located in Georgetown. I was able to walk to shopping and restaurants, and always felt safe. I would definitely pick this very special place again for a future stay.

We loved the historical aspects of the building. The room was very nicely appointed, it was quite spacious, the bed / linens were very comfortable and the hot tub was nice as well. We also ate there a few times, one was for the Father’s day dinner with live music. It was a little expensive, but the food was very good. The breakfast buffet and afternoon tea is very good too.

Lovely property which is close to tourist attractions. Breakfast was included and options were to order a la carte and/or have the buffet offerings. All quite tasty. Everyday the room service was excellent and a lovely Malay treat was placed in the room. Music in the cafe next door might disturb some guest but earplugs were provided. We used the pool to cool off everyday which was a great way to relax and chill down before dinner. The history of the building and ambience was the very unique. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Very Chinese style hotel, staff are kind and helpful. Room are spacious with own access to the garden and pool. Every night has complimentary Malaysian desserts. Lovely leaves with comfort wordings written. Breakfast has several choices. Good in taste. Bathroom is relatively smaller with water drop from root right above the toilet area (Sinkeh room).

This is an amazing old building but we qeee not aware before our stay that there would be yours twice a day from outside people and yay does affect your privacy quite a bit. It’s a very old building but clearly they are doing their best to keep it maintained. A great place for a 2 night stay in Georgetown

What a stunning place, we loved it! It's an old and famous house, very well maintained and so beautiful. We also had dinner at indigo one evening, which was amazing and even the wine from China was surprisingly good! Comfy bed, nice pool area, good breakfast. Definitely to recommend, the whole experience from A-Z was perfect.

We loved staying at The Blue Mansions. After spending a few days walking the streets of George Town, it was a pleasure to come back each day. The building and interior are stunning, and the service provided by the staff is first-class. It was a real treat to have our own Jacuzzi bath and to step outside with access to the pool. Had this hotel been anywhere else in the world, i am sure we would be paying triple the price, which is well outside of our range. We stayed in the 50's room with our 13-year-old; we had ample space, plenty of wardrobe space, and loved the private garden access at the back. The staff were extremely accommodating and friendly and looking after us.

We booked just a regular room and lucked out with the Old Kitchen room. It was amazing. We had a private hot tub to use and just an overall comfortable room. The bed was great and the AC was even better. The staff is amazing and goes out of their way for you. The mansion is a must stay just beware that the hawker next door is very noisy but stops around midnight. We ate there and it was fabulous. The breakfast at the old mansion is way better than any standard free breakfast I’ve gotten anywhere else. My husband and I agree that was hands down the best hotel while we visited Malaysia.

A beautiful and unique place to stay. We loved our room. Keep in mind that there are daily tours. When we first arrived there was a tour going on and while the tours do not enter the private guest areas, we were a bit alarmed at the noise level, and also that we were not able to sit in the bar area for a cold drink. However, once the tour was over everything quieted down and we able to enjoy the space. Our room was on ground level, but our friends had booked a suite which was up a very steep and long flight of stairs; another thing to keep in mind. But the suite was huge and spacious, as was our room. The staff was perfectly lovely.

This property is unlike any other. A gorgeous mansion lovingly restored by a couple committed to giving it life after years of disrepair. It's simply stunning and exudes feng shui! The only negative is that they cannot control what gets developed around them (or doesn't) so it's near both high-rise monsters, and some run-down old properties.

We stayed for 3 nights on our tour of Malaysia and were wowed out by whole experience. The hotel is in a fabulous location with Chinatown, the harbour and many other attractions within walking distance (or accessible by free CAT bus) The rooms were extremely comfortable and steeped in history. The breakfast was delicious and our sampler menu dining experience was a real treat. Two areas however really stood out; Firstly, the hotel is also a museum and is full of amazing history. A free tour for residents is provided and we were lucky to go on the Friday morning tour that was led by the owner Loh Lim who was informative and passionate about the property history and renovation. I would recommend doing the tour early in your visit so that you can appreciate the finer points of the hotel. The greatest asset of the hotel however is the staff who were fabulous. They were super attentive and friendly...if only the staff at Raffles in Singapore and The Majestic in KL could match the staff at the Blue Mansion! Remember, it is a museum and a live renovation project so it's not the super swanky experience of some of the other 4 and 5 star hotels on our travels but the service and atmosphere was outstanding! Thank you to the team for a magical experience.
