We recommend it! ##### June Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cean Aug 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved the historic element of the property. The location in Georgetown, Penang was also perfect. The best part of the stay was the excellent staff who offered many great suggestions for food and sightseeing and generally extended such wonderful hospitality. ##### Cean Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveler Jan 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great service Lovely room, great service, comfy bed. Fantastic welcome and orientation to the hotel and area. Room on main floor was very noisy from room above, so maybe take upper room if light sleeper (though could be noisy wirth rain) ##### Verified traveler Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Jul 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Albert and his team did a great job hosting me for 2 nights ! Hotel is efficient but also very laid back . It’s an old mansion and some of the public areas do not have AC . Anywhere you would like to me had AC and was comfortable ! Free non- alcoholic drinks and snacks available . Breakfast prepared to order eggs were great ! Lap pool is good location to chill out after a busy day ! Looking forward to returning !

The staff were amazingly wonderful and good. This is a true boutique hotel not to be confused with anything modern, but it was truly comfortable and charming. ##### William Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Burt Jun 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful hotel inside and out.

Only one small bowl of fruit available " this seems unfair in a country of marvelous fruits at v cheap price.also no fresh juice just packet Bathroom only separed from bed by curtain ok but not ideal for privacy on" the throne" Manager and staff very friendly and helpful with excellent recommendations Great location for sightseeing and restaurants- interesting historic building beautiful appointed ##### Christopher Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Katie Aug 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff there were super friendly and helpful just like expected, I love the pre dinner drink session and 24hours lounge. Understanding the house is a vintage property, the structure condition may not as good as the new built, however some of the hardware facilities were slightly disappointed. Like the bathing robe, and bed sheets. In general it was a present stay and definitely will revisit Penang. ##### Katie Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher Jul 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A modern colonial boutique gem. The Edison is a comfortable friendly boutique style hotel with a modern colonial vibe. Very well located in the heart of heritage Georgetown. Decor is elegant and understated. The real strength of the place though is the staff. Really nice service at all terms. Friendly and seemingly informal but ever helpful and anticipating needs, with nothing ever too much trouble. My stay was for 6 nights and it never faltered and if anything just kept on getting better. If you have mobility issues be sure to ask for a downstairs room as there are mo lifts. Only slight quibble was that wifi data rates were patchy. But overall it’s strongly recommended. ##### Christopher Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin Jul 10, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Beautiful hotel. ##### Kevin Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### D T Feb 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Good stay, best part is the service. ##### D T Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul Dec 30, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### THE place to stay in George Town!
