We stayed here many times already when we went to Penang for holidays and for Indian Visa run.
We did tried some other hotels and guest houses in this area, but at the end we find this hotel is the best. And so, we kept coming back for this hotel.
It is well situated in George Town. It is on the same street as the Indian Visa Centre and it's less than 10 minutes walk from the hotel to the Indian Visa Centre. It is easy straightforward 10-15 minutes walking distance to Komtar via Cintra Street. Along the way, you find many decent good Chinese Dim Sum restaurants and food court. 10-15 minutes walk to Little India where you find many good Indian restaurants especially Woodland vegetarian restaurant.
Most of the time, we stayed in the standard room with attached bathroom (130 rm per night walk in price), very good shower, very clean room/bathroom/toilet/beddings, very comfortable bed and pillows and cotton sheets, very good air-conditioning, very good connection of WIFI Internet in the room, tea making facilities, clean towels, soap & shower gel, hair-dryer, bottled drinking water, TV with 11 Astro channels, very comfortable arm-chair, bed side table, wardrobe, nice lighting with soft bright light, and room cleaning available everyday.
We stayed in the basic room with shared bathroom before for once, it was good enough, but we prefer to pay a little more for the standard rooms on the ground floor, as they are more comfortable with the attached bathroom and more quiet than the basic rooms upstairs.
The staff are really nice and friendly and efficient.
Parking places available with a security guard.
The entrance of the hotel from the Lebuh Chulia main road as well as the carpark area in front of the hotel is lovely view with some well maintained green plants.
The entire hotel is very well-maintained.
Highly recommended for a few nights stay or even for a longer stay as they provide room cleaning everyday if you need to. We stayed here for 5 nights the last time. There was not a single problem... Everything that I requested was being attended immediately. I gave a small tips to the cleaning ladies for doing a great job for cleaning the room for me.
Hope you will have a nice stay here. I did.
Thank you for everyone who works in Chulia Heritage Hotel for making our stay in Penang so comfortable.
