Best places to stay in Penang Malaysia with Asia Odyssey

Penang Malaysia – Where To Stay

Pulau Penang owes everything to the spice trade that over the centuries has shaped the island, its people, its economy and its amazing blend of food with Chinese, Malay, and Indian influences.

Eastern and Oriental Hotel

The luxurious all-suites Eastern and Oriental Hotel, built in the late 1880’s and fully restored to its former glory with its pith helmeted door men. This heritage hotel brings all the charm of a bygone colonial era. Located in central Georgetown overlooking the Straits of Malacca, the E&O hotel personifies class and elegance that we have come to expect.

Shangri La Rasa Sayang

The Shangri La Rasa Sayang is the finest hotel on Batu Feringgi Beach. The rooms are all very spacious and the only real difference is whether you go for a room in the Garden Wing or the Rasa Wing, both are excellent and will allow you to return to paradise and relax in style.

Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion

You could describe the Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion as a living museum and you wouldn’t be far wrong, this Chinese courtyard style is one of the more unique properties in Georgetown but one well worth staying at.
