The hotel is located in the center of Georgetown, at the beginning of the Penang street choose to the Chinatown area and little India, just close to the colonial area... the hotel is big with many rooms, the rooms look a bit old but they are quite big and very clean...breakfast is very good, food is excellent and the restaurant in the top of the hotel is awesome (very nice views and food)...stuff is helpful and friendly,I liked my stay there...

Brilliant location in Georgetown, close to all the main sights. Hotel is a bit dated but the rooms were well appointed and everything worked well. Our rooms were not sea facing but we had bay windows with a view of Georgetown. Didn't try the food at the hotel so cannot comment on that. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Our family of four recently returned from a wonderful stay at this hotel. The family room was excellent and easily accommodated the four of us with 2 separate rooms. The Georgetown location of this hotel suited us because it was close to everywhere we wanted to go. The Bayview was very clean and had a beautiful eating area. The staff are efficient, effective and friendly. We loved this hotel so much and we have booked to go back there again! There is a great revolving restaurant at the top of the hotel, perfect for a special dinner. Overall a fantastic stay at the Bayview and we definitely recommend it.

Hotel is older but has been refurbished. Room was clean, carpet could have done with a shampoo though. Mini bar fridge was there but not stocked and the standard amenties were available.

The general breakfast buffet had a good selection but was a bit of a zoo in an area that was poorly lit and not big enough for the number of guests making it hard to move around and very noisy.

In contrast the executive lounge was well worth the extra money, they offered a small american breakfast, evening snacks and all day drinks. The food was good, although it would have been nice to have a different selection each day. The staff were fantastic especially in the lounge where they couldn't do enough to help you.

The hotel had a nice very deep pool, and a large jacuzzi, we saw posters for a spa but didnt recieve any information in our room.

Would stay again if needed to be in the city.
