Really lovely place! The room was clean and modern and the hosts were so helpful. They sent us some brilliant guides that we used to see the city, they were responsive to our messages and sent a staff member to say hello when we arrived. There was even some bread provided in the communal area, in case we got hungry. We did, and it was delicious - we think it was coffee flavoured. Do note that the private bathroom is just across the hallway, but the place was lovely and quiet and was in no way an issue at all. Would absolutely recommend this place.

A very cozy authentic hotel. If you don't like cats, don't come here. Because cats will be everywhere on the table, under the table, in bed, in the kitchen. They will come to visit you in your room, check if everything is in order and located in the very heart of Dorgetown))) All the sights are a 7-minute walk away, the Komtar Tower is a 5-minute walk away. The hotel has everything you need, kitchen, hot water, WiFi. Come and enjoy!!!

De Village Lodge

The staff responsible for the booking. - Yvonne Lam - was absolutely accommodating and did her best to male the stay as pleasant as possible. Balik Pulau isn't the heart of Penang tourism but if one is looking for an off-the-beaten track experience in Penang, then this is it. Super rustic, it is a wonderful place to hike, bike and explore the plantations and the hills. Located in the heart of Balik Pulau, de Village is a no-frills homestay that meets the needs of an adventurer. With two food courts right outside and an host of other eateries along the main road, this is a good jumping point to explore the area. A 24 hour self-service laundromat across the main road makes it convenient for those travelling light. A convenience store next to the homestay is great if you need to resupply.
