I had a wonderful stay at the place. It's clean, simple and not busy or noisy. It's so close to the center of Georgetown area and the nightlife without being too centre. The staff, especially Junaid, is very nice and helpful. Thanks. It's worth the money, I'll definitely come here again.
this is a cosy little hotel. it's in a nice location and eothin steps to local bus stop and a short walk to komtar bus terminal too. i do like the hotel but i do have some sincere suggestions to hotel operator to make this hotel a little nicer next time.
1. the indian livehouse next door does pump loud music from 10pm-2pm. hotel should try a thick curtain on the windows to absorb the sound. sound absorbing curtain are inexpensive if buy direct from china.
2. hotel staff should replenish toilet paper daily in common toilets. instay there 6 days and notice they do so only every 2 days.
3. all the pillows are super high and hard ones. toilet should purchase some medium height softer ones that guest can ask upon request.
thank you
The room environment was great, very clean, and I was really satisfied. It's definitely worth the price, and very convenient for getting around. It was so good that I extended my stay for many days. I'm very happy with it! There's a food court nearby, which is really close, and it's also near a shopping mall.

I booked this hotel for friends, and they really enjoyed their stay. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was very kind and helpful. Everything went smoothly with the check-in, and the location was convenient. I'm happy with the choice and would book it again
It was so easy to check in and check out. They reply back very quickly. Ypu have everything you need. Rooms are clean and beds are comfortable. Even though the walls are so thin and you can basically hear everything, It wasn't that bad because everyone should be quiet after 10 pm
We had an amazing stay at Gather Inn in George Town, Malaysia. The hosts were absolutely brilliant — so attentive, welcoming, and always happy to help with anything we needed. The room was spotless, with great facilities and everything maintained to a really high standard. The air conditioning was fantastic, which made such a difference in the heat and kept the room super comfortable. The location was also perfect: very close to the centre and all the main attractions, yet tucked away in a quiet area so we could get a great night’s sleep every night. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting George Town!
I live in a girls' dormitory, everyone has a sense of boundaries, and I will not talk noisy at night. At 11 o'clock in the evening, the lights are turned off on time, and the bar street is downstairs. The sound is ordinary and the music will be heard at night. It is very safe here, every room is equipped with a code lock, and everyone has quality and courtesy. The room is windowless and will have a little smell, but the indoor air-conditioning is open for 24 hours (the air-conditioning temperature can be adjusted), and it will be a bit cold at night. The bed is super single size, you can sleep 2 me, the space is large, the mattress is comfortable, there is no depression or anything, the light next to the bed can adjust the brightness, each bed is equipped with curtains, so it will not disturb others' sleep. The room is equipped with WiFi. There is no air-conditioning in the hall, there are fans, hot and cold water dispensers, disposable cups, coffee, dishes and tableware. The toilet is clean, with shower gel and water heater, but no hair dryer. It is a bit inconvenient that after someone checkout the bed, a male employee will come in at 12 noon that day to change the sheets and clean, but they will not disturb us, I will pull the curtains. Overall very satisfied, the price is cheap, 15 minutes walk after getting off the train, the seat is biased, it is convenient to go anywhere, will come again next time 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Let's start with the praise. The location is perfect for those who wants to venture and walk around Georgetown. Perfect for food hunters, just a few steps to famous eateries.
Amenities were pretty standard where you have to ask for it eg hairdryer. Ironically, an iron and ironing board is provided in the room instead. It's time to change the pillows too.
Now comes the bad. We booked a family room and it was big with 2 queen beds. However the location of the aircon is really a mystery. I cannot phantom why it was placed in a hidden slot in the middle of the room, blowing towards the wall instead towards the bed. The second queen bed couldn't feel the aircon at all. I sincerely hope that the management would relocate it.
Other than the aircon, we enjoyed our stay. Will we come back? Maybe.
The accommodation is in a tourist area, so food is readily available as soon as you step out. It's also close to the bus terminal, making travel convenient. The room is a bit small, but it wasn't uncomfortable for a solo traveler. They provide a hairdryer, drinking water, shampoo, toothbrush, and towels. No adapter is needed for the power outlets. The accommodation feels safe, especially for women traveling alone. Overall, it's good, and I'd stay here again if I have the chance.
Very Good

RRonin tanThe overall experience of my stay was great. The hotel environment was quiet, and the room decor was simple but very comfortable. The bedding was clean, and the hygiene was excellent, making for a very reassuring stay. Every day, coming back to the room felt relaxing, without any pressure.
The hotel's surroundings also offered great amenities. There were many food stalls and restaurants nearby with a wide variety of choices, all at very affordable prices. There was no need to specially take a ride to find food. Whether it was for breakfast, lunch, or a late-night snack, meals were easily sorted.
With its convenient location, clean environment, and high value for money, it was a very satisfying accommodation experience. If I'm ever in this area again, I would consider staying here once more.
GGuest UserThis was a temporary stopover near the airport. The environment was, to put it mildly, not great. The shower and toilet weren't separated, and as it's a Muslim household, you can't wear shoes inside, which made using the bathroom quite a hassle. Another issue was the significant noise from the road. However, it was cheap and close to the airport, and the host was very welcoming.
GGuest UserThe young girl staff very polite and friendly
I feel touch
The location is very conveniently
Outside from the hostel just opposite there has many of restaurants and shops
It has different types of food and desserts
The price is reasonable
It’s quite clean
Call grab is convenient also
I think I will be back again
AAnonymous Userthe location is 💯
cleanliness wise not so desirable but well it’s more like a budgeted hotel with not so budgeted price 😂
layover for a night so so far so good
AAnonymous UserFor my first time, I chose this place.
- The bed was comfortable and the air conditioning was cool.
- All the essentials were provided: microwave, cold and hot water, tea, coffee, and a shared hairdryer at the front.
- The bathroom had soap and shampoo.
- The Wi-Fi was good. I was quite impressed! The fact that you use a code to enter the room instead of a keycard or physical key is excellent and very modern.
- The location is good, making it easy to walk to food options. 7-Eleven and Family Mart are close by and within walking distance.
AAlfredo KA nice capsule bed. i had a quiet night and very pleasant stay here for the 3D2N.
The Location, cleanliness, and service are all excellent. Another thing is that we were able to enjoy and experience the breathtaking New Year's countdown fireworks from the historic skyline of Georgetown City at the hotel's common area terrace. See the photo taken during that time below.
First of all, the hotel itself is absolutely beautiful.
The Malaysian Chinese lady owner was incredibly kind and always willing to help, which made my stay feel even more welcoming and personal.
As soon as you step outside the hotel, many major tourist attractions are within walking distance, so the location is very convenient.
Aside from that, the room was very clean, cozy, and charming, perfectly capturing the old Penang vibe.
Overall, it’s a simple, compact, and lovely hotel that I truly enjoyed and would happily recommend.
Overall, the experience at the hotel was really fun, there are many good features about it, such as the location, and the facilities.
And the price is affordable too. Thanks for a wonderful time. Housekeeping change towel every day.
Is a Great location, lots of restaurants, great staff, the bathroom is downstairs but it's OK. I would definitely recommend it
Basic but all you need for a short stay! Great wifi and aircon, and such a convenient location.
