The Prestige Hotel Penang  

In the heart of George Town, a designer hotel steps from Pinang Peranakan Mansion and a short walk to Fort Cornwallis, Armenian Street and Swettenham Pier. About 25 minutes from Penang International Airport, it’s a stylish launch point for exploring UNESCO-flavored streets and Penang’s food scene.

A playful Victorian-meets-magic vibe—think chrome-orb reception, Houdini props, levitated beds and hidden doors woven with local bronze motifs. The Prestige offers 162 rooms with minibars, Smart TVs and bathrooms with bidets and complimentary toiletries. Chill by an infinity pool with quayside views, unwind at the full-service spa, or hit the ultra-chic custom gym.

Full-service spa with massages, outdoor infinity pool and gazebos, fitness center, bar/lounge and 24-hour room service. Concierge, luggage storage, dry cleaning and free self-parking are on hand. Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected—wake up to quayside mornings and easy access to the city’s sights.

Banquet hall plus the Borden & Angier rooftop pavilion for meetings, launches or private events (up to 80 guests). Complimentary wireless internet, 24-hour front desk and event-ready spaces make it suited for business travellers.

The Glasshouse on the ground floor serves local delicacies and international dishes. Buffet breakfasts are available (6:30–11:30) for a fee, and there’s a bar/lounge plus 24-hour room service for late-night cravings.
