Just stayed at this Hotel for 1 night on a short trip to Penang for business. Other than paper intensive check in (and check out!), it was rather unremarkable. I found it quiet, good water pressure for my shower in the morning, and came with local paper delivered. Sparsely stocked minibar (which I used to cool down my free bottles... More

I stayed for two nights for workshop and was being booked at Eastin Penang Hotel .. the initial impression of the hotel was nice and well manned staff. The hotel room was clean and neat with nice view of the street of the city... in addition the shopping mall is just 5 min walk from the hotel and the mall... More

Booked via Agoda and went through the check-in process with ease. Concierges are extremely friendly and helpful. Beds are pretty comfy although bed sheets & blankets can produce lots of disturbing noise. Overall my experience on this hotel was good.

My family and I stayed at Eastin Hotel Penang, Eastin Deluxe Suite last March 2013 and the experience surprised us! I never expected such hotel that's often perceived as business-oriented and not affordable could be so family and pocket-friendly! Rooms were minimalist and spacious. Service was warm and quick; staff had ready smile and were so accomodating to our requests.... More

I stayed at the Eastin Hotel in Bayan Lepas in April 2013 (in fact, I am writing this review while still at the hotel). In my travels, I tend to avoid "business hotels" because, as a general rule, they are pretty soulless places. So I was well-primed not to like the Eastin. Happily for me, they have completely changed my... More

On a recent short over night-er in Penang, I decided to try staying at the Eastin Hotel Penang near the large Queensbay mall and fairly close to the airport. It's a little off the city centre and nowhere near the beaches but I liked the proximity to the airport and the mall plus the hotel had a modern clean look... More

After staying at a rather dismal budget hotel in Penang for my last 2 business trips, I requested for a hotel change based on recommendations from my friends (who live in Penang). For my recent trip to Penang, I checked in at Eastin for a 2-nights stay. Upon informing the counter that it was my first time staying at the... More

Stayed at the Eastin hotel in Penang in April for a short business trip. Check in went smooth but my room wasn't available immediately as I was checking in earlier than the check in time so we went for lunch in the buffet just off of the lobby entrance. It was a wide variety of different types of Asian cuisine.... More

Overall the hotel was excellent. The room was clean, the check in and check out was fast. There's wifi in the room and the signal was fast enough to watch Youtube. The only downside is the room is too small. Athough I was upgraded to the executive room, I still find the room small with just enough space to walk... More

First and foremost softer beds are needed here. My bed felt like a concrete slab. Second don't expect much from the hotel restraunt. The food is edible but that's about it; the pancakes at breakfast are not pancakes, they are some form of rice mix of a pancake. That being said it is in good proximity to the airport and... More
