No. 1 of Luxury Hotels in Penang
Soori Penang is a boutique hotel with 15 suites located in the heart of George Town UNESCO World Heritage Site. Conceived by Soo K Chan award winning architect and founder of SCDA Architects the hotel is set within a beautifully restored clan house beside Khoo Kongsi temple known for its intricate Straits Chinese craftsmanship. The design reflects local heritage combined with contemporary architecture inspired by the childhood of the owner who grew up in this historic compound. The hotel offers spacious suites; a courtyard restaurant; tea room; lounge and wine bar; a fitness and wellness centre. A dedicated concierge team connects guests with cultural discoveries and local traditions.

"Soori Penang, nestled in Penang's most culturally significant area, is located right next to Khoo Kongsi (Khoo Clan House) and within walking distance of all of Penang's key attractions. You can exit through the side gate before 5 PM; after that, please use the main entrance. The Soori brand is closely associated with its founder, Soo K. Chan, who is also the founder of the renowned architectural firm SCDA Architects. Consequently, the Soori hotel collection is considered an 'architect-led boutique luxury hotel brand.' Unlike large chains like Marriott, Hilton, or Hyatt, Soori stands out as a much rarer independent luxury boutique brand. Soori Penang was meticulously restored from several 19th-century historical shophouses, emphasizing a blend of 'heritage × contemporary luxury.' The room layouts divide the living room, bedroom, and bathroom into three separate, distinct spaces. The shophouse-style elongated layout, private internal courtyard, skylight, reflective pool with water features, premium amenities, and butler service – every design element is simply breathtaking. Upon arriving at Soori Penang, you won't find a standard check-in counter. Instead, a butler will personally greet you. After enjoying a welcome drink, they will take you directly on a room tour. I was fortunate enough to conclude my Malaysian journey perfectly with Soori Penang (including a private car transfer to Penang International Airport). I truly thank myself for making this choice, and I also thank every member of the Soori Penang team."

"We arrived at about 11am and managed to check in immediately which was a pleasant surprise! The room was really spacious and we loved that there is a filtered water tap within the room so we could refill our bottles easily and save money on buying bottled water. The only bummer was that on our second day, there was a power shutdown from 10am to 2:30pm (which they informed us beforehand), but at the same time, the lifts were having maintenance (not informed on this) and we were stuck at our level (20 floors up) for about 20 to 30 mins. We were not able to take the stairs down as well which was abit frustrating as we were running late. So they could have better planned or better coordinated the schedules for the maintenance work. But other than that, the rooms were really clean and the pool and gym were nice as well. The breakfast didn’t have many selection but it was decent. We loved that the hotel was just opposite the esplanade park too! Will stay here again!"

"This hotel was the most comfortable five-star hotel we stayed at during our Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, and Penang trip. The room was very spacious, with a double vanity in the bathroom, and both the bedroom and bathroom offered sea views. The hotel facilities are very new, and they even offer turn-down service. They also provided plenty of complimentary water. The check-in service was excellent. My only minor disappointment was that with so many Chinese people in Penang, there wasn't anyone at the front desk who spoke Mandarin. Overall, I was very satisfied. The only downside was that the elevators and hallways didn't have air conditioning, which was a bit uncomfortable. I would definitely stay here again, and I highly recommend it to everyone."

"The location is fantastic, right by two large shopping malls, making dining and shopping incredibly convenient—just a three to four-minute walk away. While you'll need a taxi to get to the old town attractions, it means the area is much quieter. There's a Hua Yang restaurant right under the nearby Gurney Plaza, and the wait times are much shorter than in Kuala Lumpur, so I finally got to eat there! The facilities are a bit lacking and can't compare to five-star hotels in China. However, the service is excellent, and they even offer a shuttle bus. Breakfast was a bit disappointing; they start clearing up right on time, and the variety isn't huge. Overall, the service was very good and proactive."

"The hotel's location is pretty good, with plenty of popular 'influencer' spots nearby. The front desk service was also great, especially a slim guy who was incredibly warm and helpful. Everyone at the front desk was Chinese. My biggest regret, though, is that the hotel actually has a thief, and they operate like a professional! $200 was missing from the $1700 I had stored in the safe. I wouldn't have even noticed, but when I went to open the safe, my self-set password suddenly came up as incorrect, and I couldn't open it at all. I had to call hotel staff to open it for me. Afterward, I suspected money might be missing and specifically counted it – sure enough, two bills were gone! My password was 6 digits, but the safe's password suddenly became 3 digits. The initialization password is 3 digits, so it was clearly initialized and opened! Later, when I reported the situation to the front desk, I saw that the person in charge of this safe system was Indian, and the housekeeping staff were also Indian. At that point, I knew something shady was definitely going on. ☠️☠️☠️"

"My stay here was excellent! The hotel's location is superb, with convenient transportation, being very close to the subway station and shopping center. The check-in process was quick, and the front desk staff were enthusiastic, professional, and friendly.

"This hotel is incredibly convenient, with a convenience store on-site and plenty of local eateries and supermarkets nearby. The room was spacious and very clean, with an open view outside. Since it's a serviced apartment, it came equipped with a fridge, microwave, and cutlery, which was perfect for making a simple late-night snack with groceries bought from the supermarket. However, there were a couple of downsides: the water pressure was quite weak, and there was a strange drain smell coming from the bathroom, which definitely needs improvement. The gym and infinity pool are located on the 36th floor. The pool was super clean and the views were absolutely stunning! 👍"

"Facilities: The hotel's facilities exude a sense of luxury and elegance everywhere. However, they're also a bit impractical. For example, the sink is too wide; an Asian woman might have to stand on her tiptoes to wash her face, and her stomach would be pressed against the cold basin. Cleanliness: It was generally clean, but there was mold around the shower gel and shampoo dispenser. Ambiance: No issues at all, a century-old hotel with a central sea view. Service: Everyone was quite enthusiastic, but I still wonder if tipping is expected/necessary?"
