Truly amazing experience to stay in a heritage hotel. The daily tours provided by the hotel is a must to attend to know the rich history of the mansion.

Lovely to stay in such an iconic residence, it's in a perfect location for exploring old George Town. Great restaurant. Housekeeping could be improved. All in all would stay again.

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!

Wonderful hotel. Included breakfast is very good. The charge for airport pick up is 4x that of a grab. Order a grab.

Beautiful spacious room in a gorgeous old mansion
It felt like living a part of history.
The facilities were great but I could have done without all the emails from the hotel.

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.

Lovely hotel, beautiful courtyards, and relaxing. The staff were attentive and the in-house food was quite good. At times hard to get away from the heat, but alas, that is Malaysia.

Amazing boutique accommodation in a stunning heritage mansion. Has all the amenities to keep you very comfortable, while maintaining character and uniqueness. Great location for exploring George Town, especially the metal art around the town. Highly recommend

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.
