This magnificent mansion built by a wealthy 19th century Chinese businessman provides a central comfortable location in the heart of Penang. With only 12 rooms and very personal friendly service, it is an ideal base for exploring the city. It is, however, also a museum and the public rooms are open to the public for 2 tours per day. It... more

We did not want to stay in a chrome and glass modern hotel and decided to try this old chinese mansion. We were all thrilled with the history and found the rooms to be large and spacious, however, there was minimal furniture but everything you needed including a hairdryer was provided. It is very important to take one of the... more

We checked into the almost empty mansion during 2pm, two of the staff greet us to check in and we were lead to our room Chang Yu passing through the office and courtyard. The staff tells us about the room and how everything works before leaving us. A neat room (two twin beds) with no carpet on clean stone floor,... more

This is more a museum than an hotel, but a very beatyful one. We stayed at the schoolar suite since we were the four of us. The staff is a bit special too, but nice. The breakfast is very good too, no buffet, it is served, everything is fresh and the location is great, in the courtyard. The feeling is... more

I had the pleasure of staying 1 night at the Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion and joining the afternoon tour of the house. I really liked it. If you get into history and architecture you'll love the tour and mansion. You really are transported back to mid-19th century China and get an understanding of how/why the Chinese constructed buildings the way... more

We were sadly disappointed by our recent stay at the mansion. Unfortunately it appears that the owners are unable to strike a balance between accommodating both guests, functions and tours. During our three night stay, two evening functions and one luncheon were booked, seriously compromising guest's needs. We found the functions noisy, and the accompanying set up teams intrusive (wait... more

We were travelling abroad for the first time with our 5 month old daughter. My sister and her husband had stayed at the Blue Mansion before and we met them there. We were initially perturbed by the cold concrete floors and worried how our daughter would adjust. However, we were soon impressed by the character and old world charm of... more

STAFF: I e-mailed the Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion for enquiry and received a prompt and very friendly reply from Mr. Eric. The room is not cheap but it’s worth every cent: just to be in this historic building is a privilege. We arrived 8:30 in the morning and our room wasn’t available at that time as the check-out is indeed... more

The Blue Mansion is one of those 'ultimate' experiences. I spent two nights here and the staff were wonderfully attentive and genial. The small scale of the 'hotel' and the very few staff go out of their way to make guests feel special. The ambience is probably unique and worth every cent of the tariff - and even much more.... more
