Comfortable stay
Not the cheapest hotel for the area but it is a higher end hotel. Convenient location, between two shopping maps and a short walk away from a local market where there are many choices of food for breakfast and lunch. Welcome ice cream on arrival which was a nice touch. Spacious room with amenities and some free drinks- two bottles of water a coca cola, Sprite, lychee drink and soyabean milk in a can. Swimming pool on 24th floor. You can just annoy see the sea through the buildings. Gold membership got us two glasses of house wine, but needed to take to three members of staff before we finally got the vouchers for it. Friendly staff, easy check in and out. Deposit taken on credit card when you check in.

Almost all the hotel staff I came across at G Kelawei were so friendly and helpful in my 3 week’s stay there . There are two slight unpleasant experiences I would like to mention . I’m sure they could be rectified with very little effort I would have thought : 1. The bath towels didn’t smell as fresh as it should . 2. The ventilation in the lift could be more effective. It’s a very hot and humid town and people do sweat … I enjoyed staying at the G Kelawei very much otherwise .

Thank you for a very pleasant stay.
The hotel is located next door to Gurney Plaza shopping mall and is about a 15 minute drive from the centre of Georgetown and the ferry jetty to the mainland. A taxi (Grab) will cost about £4. The hotel is very nice and the room allocated was spacious, clean and comfortable. The room was cleaned each day. I used the gym and swimming pool and both were very good and provided lovely views onto the hills behind Georgetown. The food in the hotel (breakfast) was very good with a wide range of hot and cold options. All of the staff I encountered at security, reception, breakfast or housekeeping were all friendly and courteous.

We had a very comfortable stay. Room was spacious and came with all amenities- toiletries and we appreciate the mineral water and feee soft drinks provided. Gym is opened 24 hours, and breakfast buffet spread was delicious, with option of having it at sister G Hotel at Gurney. Location of hotel is very convenient, next to 2 big malls- Gurney Plaza and Gurney Paragon mall and short walk to Gurney drive open air hawker centre. Also around 15 minutes to attractions such as Penang Hill, Armenian street.. Had a great stay with the excellent service, will be back!
