The staff were amicable and very very nice too. Booked a room with a view. Had a bidet, a shower cap, and bath sheets in the bathroom.
The bed was slightly uncomfortable, that's my bad luck.

The hotel has a prime location, with easy access to all the main hotspots in the city. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The room was sparkling clean and comfortable. I appreciate the free Wi-Fi and the helpful guide with great restaurant recommendations.
The lack of natural light was a major downside to my stay. It felt quite stuffy and cramped, which made it hard to stay for too long.

We had a excellent stay at this hotel! Very friendly staff and superbly clean and modern facilities. The location is ideal for exploring the city, with many tourist spots and delicious food places within walking distance. Additionally, they have free parking available which was really convenient for us.
Nothing for me.

The location of the hotel was great, as it was within walking distance to numerous shopping and food options. the comfortable bed in the spacious room was delightful for a good night's rest after a long day of exploring the city. The friendly owner and staff provided parking for guests, which was convenient and hassle-free.
The water pressure could be better and it was challenging to adjust the shower temperature between warm and scalding for the right pressure. The noise from the nearby mosque and garbage truck pick-ups after midnight was quite distracting, which interrupted our sleep.

Some guests experienced noise issues from the corridors and traffic outside.

We had a small issue with our room upon check-in, but the staff at Macalister Terraces quickly resolved it and gave us a room with a beautiful view. The personnel were very nice and accommodating throughout our stay. The location of the hotel is perfect, with plenty of shopping and dining options within walking distance. The room itself was spacious and comfortable, with a comfy bed and modern touches. The owner, Bill, was a wonderful host and provided us with great recommendations for exploring the area. I would highly recommend staying at Macalister Terraces if you're visiting Penang!
