I stayed at the Loft Suite for 2 nights. First i would like to say that the place is converted from a local house and hence you will experience a local stay. It strikes me as a more well-endowed and spacious version of a traditional shophouse. If you are uncomfortable with the authenticity of the shophouses such as the wooden... More

This place is in a great location, the staff are extremely helpful and very knowledgeable about the area. Service was wonderful and the room was very well kept and clean. A short walk from excellent food markets, bars and other eateries. Excellent value for money.

Stayed at this home in Bangkok lane in penang just to get away from the busy life. Before stepping into the home, the beauty of heritage houses has already mesmerised me. The kind manager had a nice welcome with clear instructions on checking in as it was a late check in. The place is kept really clean and the interior... More

we stayed in Dwell in July 2012 and can only rave about it! Such a cool part of town and the folk that run the place are just so so so helpful. We are a family of 2 adults and 2 teenage daughters and we all loved the place - the bathrooms on the balcony were a real hit, We... More

My 1st trip to Penang was very much raised beyond expectation when I step foot in front of this well preserved heritage remainings, the hotel is actually a 2 storey old house converetd into what is now a well kept rent out. The room gave us a very familiar , conservatives feeling that we have lost a long time ago... More

I was intrigued from the website, as it looked like a cool stay, but the reality was totally different! There were a number of issues- 1. Safety As a single woman, I honestly did not feel safe-the bathroom was on a balcony with wide slats between the shades (anyone would be able to see through at night when the bath... More

This hotel utilizes a nice heritage building on a lovely street full of them. My flight was delayed and I called them to let them know. They left the key for me with all their instructions. The room was nice but the bathroom felt like it was outside and the quality was lower than that of the room. During rain,... More

We stayed in the PalanquInn and Dwell Loft Suites for 5 and 9 days respectively. The units in both houses are clean and comfortable within a traditional style environment. Bangkok Lane is a one-way Street and therefore not as busy as we had expected. On the contrary it was fairly quiet in the evening and during the night; in addition,... More

I was really excited when I checked Palanquinn out online and via the reviews. However, when I arrived, I was quite unimpressed with what I saw. It was definitely not worth the RM220 per night. My mezzanine room was on the latest property of Palanquinn on 20 Bangkok Lane, just opposite the original Dwell suites. The room smelt musty and... More
