Best Moments
Really grateful that I came across this hotel at the very last minute (midnight prior to stay)... it was a blessing in disguise! Macalister Terraces Hotel is by far the most unique stay we found in the heart of the city - close to everything else, clean, pleasant smell, good arrival experience with dedicated hotel parking. Best thing is we were greeted by Liza, a very friendly and warm receptionist. We had a very good rest here as the room and bed is comfortable with proper bathroom design. Will definitely go back here.
Very clean and comfortable accommodations. The room was superbly equipped and served its purpose. I particularly appreciated the friendly lady at the hotel reception. I've never experienced such a warm welcome at a hotel before. She even took the time to give us tips for getting around George Town. I would definitely book at this hotel again!
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!
