Is in a perfect location in the heart of the city. We had a medical emergency here and the staff went out of their way to help and accommodate us for a longer stay.

The hotel is beautifully furnished, with modern bathrooms and tall ceilings. We occupied one of the suites on the second floor that offered a separate living room area in addition to the bedroom. Very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable staff! Great location near historic sites!

Room was extremely small...we had a king plus 1 twin bed but basically in a standard room so no room to walk around. Had to shove our luggages under the bed to avoid tripping over them.
Liked the unique historical design of the hotel and has charm which was why i picked it for something different.
Service was impeccable though as the staff were super attentive and very friendly.

We had the most amazing stay in Penang. The hotel is very well situated so close to everything we wanted to do and see. The pool was especially welcoming after being out and about!
Couldn’t fault the staff - they were ALL fantastic.

Great heritage hotel in a brilliant position. Rooms are comfortable, tea and coffee, ventilation, good bathroom, and great bed. The general ambience is wonderful and you can sit just outside soaking up the sunshine and history while having a drink. There's a swimming pool, which we used everyday and we decided to eat our breakfast outside although there is an aircon restaurant attached to the hotel. The only slight downside is some nights there was very loud music on until the early hours of the next morning as penang must of relaxed it's laws. But the best thing about the hotel are the staff... Especially Yo who is amazing and so kind and Harry Potter who was very caring and professional. Thankyou to all the staff. On another note you can get very cheap local buses all over the island, the hotel can arrange a taxi and the fare from the airport is now fixed so it's easy for transportation. There's proper and very good street food if you turn left from the hotel to the next block and there's loads of trendy western places too.

Fantastic stay in George Town at the beautiful Jeng Keng Hotel . The staff , especially Ian were so helpful , polite , informative and fun! We used the pool every afternoon an oasis of calm after the business and heat of the city. Everywhere was clean and tidy and the rooms were spotless . We enjoyed the breakfasts immensely , im sorry I don’t have the main guy in the cafes name but he was so great at explaining the ingredients of the foods being gluten intolerant . Thanks so much - we adored it!

Excellent service from the staff. Thank you for accomodating our late check-out due to heavy traffic. We really enjoy the breakfast as well. Like it that the pastries are bite-size, so one would not overeat or waste food. Could be better if they can have more vegan options. A nice and quaint hotel that worth very cents.

We enjoyed being so close to all the things to see and do in Georgetown. It was great being able to walk everywhere.

great heritage property and location. Very friendly and attentive staff adds to the overall positive experience. the nutmeg welcome drink is an excellent touch. if i have one minor suggestion - change your mattress in room 108. its way too hard.

This is my 2nd stay at Yeng Keng. This round with my sibling and nephew. We love the hotel location and the restaurant Hainanese cuisine was fantastic! We look forward to come back again.

The property was quite beautiful and had a lovely veranda where you could sit and read or have a cup of hot tea. The staff was super attentive, and really went out of their way to be kind and considerate. I enjoyed the different conversations that I had with them and felt they were really friendly and helpful. The air conditioning and fan we’re just right, not too cold, as is often the case. The location was truly excellent for walking to all kinds of places in the georgetown area, and the map that was provided by the hotel was very useful. I give it an A .

Great historic hotel meticulously preserved and renovated. Rooms are very comfortable and cozy. Nice area rug under the beds. Swimming pool was a welcome retreat for a long day out in Penang. Staff all so friendly and helpful. Room included breakfast in the Yeng Keng cafe. Only recommendation to have say a 3 day rotation for some variety during the stay. You can also eat outside of breakfast in the restaurant. Hotel close to Love Lane for western bars and restaurants and to the food street market that had great food. This was our favourite hotel so far in Malaysia. Thank you!!!

A gem of class and culture, Yeng Keng has everything you want. The rooms are not large, but they are perfectly appointed. The pool is a delight after touring about on a hot Penang day. But the service is what elevates Yeng Keng above others. Raj and Nanda can solve every problem! We can't wait to go again.
