Good location opposite the new Gurney Drive esplanade (still under construction but will be very beautiful when completed). Spacious rooms and good views from the rooms.

Ascott Gurney Penang is a fantastic place to stay. The rooms are clean and very comfortable, the staff are friendly, and the facilities are well-maintained. The breakfast is good and the location is super convenient — near malls, restaurants, and the seafront. Really enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back!

Location was great, just a short casual walk to both Gurney Paragon and Gurney Plaza, with nice eateries along the way. Nice swimming pool and 24 hours gym. It’s great that a 24 hours supermarket is located just at the side of the hotel. Doorman and concierge were courteous.
If they had provided bottled water, it will be better.

Love the stay and staffs are all friendly! Room was so spacious! Will definitely come back for a stay.
Just a small drawback which was the noise for my second morning, I complained about it and hotel mentioned was the mall beside and they can’t do anything plus it was a Sunday! Our friends who were staying in higher floor (30+) didn’t hear that, our floor located at 20 stg so maybe it depends on luck?

The room is very good, clean and big
Breakfast also very good
However the laundrette room is hidden and feel spooky and creepy, there are 2 washing machine but has no instruction about how to use it, so i cancel wash my clothes

When i walk in hotel,I feel they are very friendly. Check in also fast, when i open room that is fresh & clean room, can see half seaview half cityview. The pillow very soft & whole night sleep very well. Not only that i like, I also like their shampoo like a orange /lemon smell.
That is a good place for relax, opposite is a gurney bay park can go to walk around, if don't like walk there also have bicycles rental. Then nearby also have a feel Malay& Chinese restaurant.
Morning breakfast have a lot of choosing, including roti canai, egg, rice, mee, porridge, salad, fruit, yoghurt,& dessert.
