My husband and I usually stay at the hotels along the Batu Ferringi/Tanjong Bunga area but thought to try out a hotel closer to town. The rooms at Evergreen were clean and of a good size but the seaview from our room was really nothing to rave about as the water was grey and murky. The carpet seemd old and... more

This hotel was recommended by my boss and the company that we were working for. It sits right on the Ocean and I initially thought it would be nice to walk out on the beach. Unfortunately, the water front is very polluted and no one dares to walk on the beach front. The location is 15 minutes from Gurney Plaza... more

Just returned from Penang where we have stayed in Evergreen hotel. Was forced to stay there, as most other hotels were fully booked at these days. Quite disappointing, and definitely NOT 5 star hotel... Everything is old, expensive, located far from main places you want to visit, breakfast is so poor, that we were keep drinking orange juice, and even... more

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel very much. The friendliness of the staff was outstanding, there is free Wifi in the lobby area, good sports facilities and nicely decorated rooms. I can't say anything about the restaurant as we preferred to eat in town. The hotel is in a nice location close to the sea, but it takes about... more

We stayed at the Evergreen Hotel and loved everything about the Hotel. Room was fantastic, free inroom broadband, amazing breakfast, great pool and wonderful... more

Service made this stay particularly special - from the excellent reception at the front door to the efficient check-in/check-out, attentive concierge service and relaxed dining experience. Our room was clean, tidy and well maintained with great views out to sea. The swimming pool was quiet and well maintained. The gym was air-conditioned and good quality. The presentation of a variety... more

This hotel is owned by the Taiwanese Evergreen shipping line which also own EVA Air. This hotel is not new but everything seemed very well maintained. Location wise it is at Gurney drive, food is plentiful and Georgetown is just a short trip away. Overall, no complains. Good value for money too. Would not hesitate to stay here again. more

First don't expect with such a "good" price you can have a 5-star service. It'll never happen please be realistic. 2nd if you don't expect much it's quite a decent hotel: aged but classic; clean rooms with flat LCD tv (though doesn't make much diff given there are only 13-14 channels); mediocre free breakfast (didn't have any good pastry in... more

This was not the first time for me to go to Penang, but it was the first for me to stay in the Gurney area. Indeed, the Evergreen is almost smack in the middle of the action - the water and the promenade was just in front, and it's surrounded by tall, modern and chic condominiums. The lobby is a... more
