Chymes

Tucked by the beach in Tanjung Bungah, Penang, Chymes is a cosy boutique bed & breakfast minutes from the Floating Mosque and PKSA Penang Water Sports Centre. It’s also close to the Ibox Museum of Glass and Penang Botanic Gardens — a handy base for beach days and quick city stops.

Just six individually themed rooms give Chymes an intimate, home-away-from-home vibe. Rooms are warmly decorated and come with TVs, iPod docking stations, DVD players and private, spacious bathrooms with rainfall showers. Daily housekeeping, coffee/tea makers and complimentary bottled water keep things simple and comfortable.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi keeps you connected, and there’s on-site parking plus a tour desk to arrange local excursions. The property has a garden area and a lobby with a television — expect relaxed, beachside comfort rather than big-hotel frills. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings just steps from the shoreline.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property is handy for light work and staying connected on the go.

An on-site restaurant serves meals, and rooms include coffee/tea makers for easy morning starts.
