Hotel Penaga is a beautifully restored collection of buildings located in the heart of Penang’s UNESCO World Heritage-protected Georgetown district. The hotel was converted from a cluster of buildings, including Chinese shophouses and pre-war terraces, into a deeply-atmospheric heritage boutique hotel. Rooms are beautifully appointed and full of classic character, whilst still maintaining modern amenities. Despite being located on an extremely compact spot, numerous facilities have been tastefully installed within the property, including a library, business centre, shop, garden, spa, and small swimming pool. For the artistically-minded, hotel-owners have even retained an original artist’s residence and studio on site, yours if you’re willing to commit to a stay of 1-3 months!
