Not only are we surrounded by the renowned arts, culture and heritage of this World Heritage Site, but we also pay homage to our very own artists within our walls, featuring their masterpieces and hosting art exhibitions. Now, you can truly immerse in Penang’s vibrant arts scene.
Glamour and Finesse
Inspired by the grandeur of the art deco era, the interior decor at Macalister Terraces features a distinct opulence, with original teak furnishings as well as custom-designed pieces adorned with designer Jim Thompson fabrics. The result – an intricate yet modern ambience with undeniable charm that you would be glad to make your home away from home.

No expense is spared when it comes to your comfort. Macalister Terraces is proud to be one of a distinct few to have the acclaimed Sealy beds with specially selected linens in every room. But that is just a part of what we have to offer. The hotel is luxuriously appointed throughout, ensuring that you get the best rest and relaxation during your travels.

Best Moments
Highly recommended for those who love to be in the city and experience a boutique hotel that genuinely provides comfort, hospitality, and affordability. The ambience is fantastic, and Macalister Terraces Hotel has a wonderful design and concept. It's conveniently located near various amenities like shops, cafes, and hawker stalls. I spent a fun time exploring Georgetown to discover its many hidden gems.
The hotel is clean, stylishly done-out and great value for money. Close to lots of major attractions, some bars and places to eat. The beds are very comfortable and large - perhaps sacrificing most of the usable space in the rooms in some cases! Several of the rooms don't have windows - the blurred glass blocks in the photos are out the hall.
We had a very pleasant stay for 4 days. This is a very cosy and comfortable family suite with two separate rooms connected. There is parking space, there are restaurants all around, and famous attractions are within 5 to 15 minutes of walking distance. The most important thing is that the hotel owner, Mr. Bill is very nice, and the front desk service, Ms. Lisa is also enthusiastic, and the attractions she introduces are also top-notch. With her highly recommended Blue Mansion Indigo restaurant fine dining and her kind of helpful booking, we granted the best services.
Have stayed at Macalister Terraces for 3 times so far! Definitely my go-to accommodation whenever I visit the beautiful island! What keeps me returning: friendly and professional staff, convenient yet peaceful location - near (and walkable) to everything I need yet away from the noisy, maddening crowd, ease of commuting - safe and secure complimentary parking right in front of the hotel and is also fairly easy to find a Grab, clean and spacious room with good shower water pressure, comfortable mattress, and a very relaxing, tastefully decorated lobby. They also provide air-filter upon request! Hands-down one of the best hotels on Penang island in terms of hospitality and pricing too! I love how they try to support local businesses - instead of run-of-the-mill Nescafe and Lipton, Macalister Terraces provide complimentary sachets of the Salute Brand 海军牌 and Boh tea bags in the rooms!
