A Dream Stay at The Edison – Penang’s Best Boutique Hotel! From the moment we arrived at The Edison, we were swept away by its charm and elegance. This boutique hotel, housed in a beautifully restored historic mansion, feels like stepping into a piece of Penang’s rich heritage – but with all the modern comforts you could ever want. The location is simply unbeatable: right in the heart of George Town’s UNESCO heritage center, making it effortless to explore the city’s colorful streets, historic landmarks, and vibrant food scene. The interiors are absolutely gorgeous. Every detail, from the grand entrance to the tranquil courtyard, has been lovingly preserved and tastefully updated. Our room was spacious, airy, and refreshingly cool – a perfect retreat after wandering through the tropical heat. The pool is a hidden jewel – calm, inviting, and surrounded by lush greenery. We spent hours there unwinding. And the complimentary all-day lounge? What a fantastic idea! Whether you need a quick snack, a cold drink, or just a quiet corner to relax, it’s always available and beautifully stocked. But what truly elevates The Edison to a class of its own is the exceptional staff. They are the very soul of this hotel – warm, professional, and endlessly helpful. From the front desk to the housekeeping team, every single person we encountered went out of their way to make us feel welcome and cared for. Their restaurant recommendations were outstanding, and they gave us wonderful tips for excursions that made our stay unforgettable. The Edison isn’t just a hotel – it’s an experience. It combines heritage, comfort, and a level of hospitality that is rare to find. We travel often, but few places have left such a lasting impression. If you’re visiting Penang, don’t even think twice. Stay at The Edison. It’s hands down the best hotel in the city, and we can’t wait to come back!

The apartment was huge, very comfortable and in keeping with the historical stye of the property (decorated with beautiful antique furniture). Fantastic location right next to Little India and lots of other districts within walking distance. Pool was perfect for a dip to cool down and the complimentary afternoon tea is a very nice touch. Excellent value for money and would certainly stay again.

The hotel is very conveniently situated near a junction where you can access local highlights within a short walk. The Kimberly night market, delicious eateries and cafes like Hameediyah, Chowrasta Market and the streets are lined with either street art murals or steel road sculptures. Just walk a bit further and you would reach Komtar.

George Town, Penang is a UNESCO World Heritage treasure!

George Town, Penang is a UNESCO World Heritage treasure! Wander past colonial buildings, the elegant Blue Mansion, and the ornate Khoo Kongsi clan house. Then dive into the food scene—char kway teow, nasi kandar, and Penang laksa are everywhere. History and flavor in every step!

I was just there for 1 night, so didn't really have a chance to see much, but my location was right beside the Gurney Plaze, - a great Mall. I an staying in Batu Feringghi for 3 months, so will be back in Georgetown often. They seem to have lots of great sites to see & food to enjoy. I ate at the Gurney Mall - lots of great places to eat. I would not like to drive in Georgetown, but hope to figure out the Bus system & get a monthly Bus Pass. I enjoy small tours and just walking around seeing things.

Penang island biggest issue are their traffic.

Penang island biggest issue are their traffic. (Almost everywhere are conjectured) If u are driving, parking lot is the biggest issue. Almost all attractions need to purchase ticket. There's some location are free but might waste time. Anyway I'm a Malaysian & almost 30 years never visit Penang. 1 word from me, "The island traffic are getting worst"

Lovely city. Friendly locals. Fantastic food.

Lovely city. Friendly locals. Fantastic food. Chulia street and the Chew jetty markets were lovely. Penang hill was worth a visit. Do take a tuk-tuk ride.....frightening and yet a great way to see parts of the city. Lots of shopping is recommended......

Not worth visiting.

Not worth visiting. The food isn't good and the place is run down. It seems like this place is overhyped by people who don't know any better. You're better off going to Thailand and experiencing the Peranakan Chinese, Indian, and Malay cultures there.

Loved the clan houses and shop houses.

Loved the clan houses and shop houses. The Jetty is a good hawker centre for food. Don't bother with Fort Cornwallis. Must see the Peranakan Mansion Museum. Must see Kek Lok Si temple - Easy to get to by bus

A smaller boutique hotel will always win for me over a large hotel. Seven Terraces is just the right size in a perfect location of Georgetown where everything is just a walk away. The staff were very helpful, in particular the lobby staff and a lovely young man who served us in the restaurant and a few breakfasts. Pool was great. Especially sitting alongside eating delicious sweet treats for afternoon tea. Worth visiting the restaurant onsite for dinner. Truly enjoyable.

Great location for exploring George Town with loads of shops and restaurants within walking distance, including a food court no more than 5 minutes away. Our family room was large, well equipped and comfortable. Each bedroom had it's own bathroom. The staff at the hotel were welcoming and very friendly; more than happy to help us when we needed it. Our 11th floor room had great views over George Town.
