Where to Stay - Accomodation in Penang

Penang offers a wide selection of accommodation to suit every budget, from deluxe five-star hotels to budget guesthouses.

Most of the hotels are located on the island but there are also a good selection on the mainland strip of Penang, or Seberang Perai as it is known to locals.

There are two main locations to choose from - stay in the city within close proximity to the UNESCO heritage site of George Town, the state capital of Penang or in the countryside splendour near the beaches and hills.

No matter where you stay, most of Penang's attractions are close at hand. The hustle and bustle of the city to the tranquillity of the beaches are but minutes away.

For the more selective traveller who prefer a more refined and luxurious environment, there are a whole range of choices ranging from 3-star hotels to 5-star hotels as well as boutique hotel and beach resorts.

Penang-Malaysia Association of Hotels established in 1958 currently have 40 hotels under its banner. Over the years PMAH have ensured that all member hotels maintained it's integrity and strict policy in providing first class accommodation with unparalleled services.
