“Location a bit isolated”

Reviewed May 23, 2013 NEW

I don't usually travel on package deals but health issues intervened on this occasion so it was easier. The travel agent mucked up the hotel booking ie. didn't advise them of my arrival. So after an 8+hour flight, airport transfer (over an hour) and my incapacity, I was tired and extremely annoyed that there was no record of any sort... More

“Great Hotel”

Reviewed May 18, 2013 NEW

Stayed here in May for 7 nights. We stayed at the Tower block and were upgraded to the sea view at check in which was great. The room was spacious and very clean with a balcony. The Tower Block was connected to the Beach wing via a walking bridge where breakfast was served overlooking the sea and the pool. The... More

“Beautiful Rooms, Facilities Needs Upgrading”

Reviewed May 17, 2013

Stayed here with my family in May 2013 for 3 nights. We originally booked two rooms on the Tower wing but got upgraded at check- in to the Beach wing. Sent an email to them a few weeks ago to request for connecting rooms. Didn't get a reply but surprisingly, we got the request at check- in. The Beach Wing... More

“Holiday inn revisited have things changed from 2003”

I wrote a review in 2003 and thought that it would be a good idea to refresh my previous thoughts., so here goes! First impressions structurally not a lot has changed except the dining room has been extended. As long time returning guests we were upgrading to a balcony room with sea view even though I had booked the cheapest... More

“Value for Money”

Reviewed May 12, 2013

This resort was the most economical along the beach strip to accommodate my husband and I and 3 kids so I was quite forgiving for its short comings. We stayed in the beach wing which although was well located near the facilities the Kid suite was possibly a bit on the young side for our kids - our oldest is... More

After arriving at the airport from Oz at 8.30pm local time we traveled up to Batu Ferringhi with Dean our driver who gave a running commentary of Penang and Malaysian History which helped pass the time (about an hour in traffic). We arrived at the Holiday Inn and checked into the Tower Wing. Check in was fast and efficient and... More

“Mixed experience”

Reviewed May 9, 2013

The location is good and the beach view are special. The overall impression of the Hotel is poor as the entrance and the lobby them self are dark and the furniture relatively old. This is valid for the whole Hotel (Beach side). Our room was OK the furniture in the room are old too. The very disappointing issue was the... More

“Just about OK”

Reviewed May 8, 2013

This is a fairly downmarket holiday-resort type hotel but that's what we expected – it's a Holiday Inn, after all! – and we were only there for a couple of nights before moving on. We stayed in one of the Tower rooms which, though set further back from the sea, looked a better bet than those in the Ocean Wing.... More
