The hotel is located on a hill away from the city center, providing a slightly isolated feel, but the service by the staff is excellent. The rooms offer a king bed, sea view, TV, and amenities, creating a comfortable stay. The dining options include traditional Penang dishes and Indian choices. However, some areas can be improved, such as the replenishing of towels, and the price for certain services may not offer the best value for money.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and modern, with a scenic view from the huge balcony where I enjoyed delicious Teh Tarik & Nescafe Tarik. The separate bedroom and amenities provided added to the comfort of the stay. The service was top-notch, especially in the Axis Lounge, despite some slow service from the hotel staff. They made full efforts to ensure my happiness and satisfaction. The location was perfect, nestled on top of a hill on the way to Batu Ferringhi, making it a more private area with easy access to the beach. The dining options were delightful, with Indian choices available, but I wished for more traditional Penang dishes. The facilities were great, offering everything I needed for a relaxing vacation.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, nestled by the beach and in a more private area, ideal for enjoying drinks and relaxing. The rooms were not only spacious with a scenic view, but they also came with the delightful bonus of free-flowing Teh Tarik & Nescafe Tarik. However, the service, though accommodating, could use a slight boost in professionalism. The dining options, with Indian choices available, were a pleasant surprise, but I wished the breakfast included more variety. Overall, a delightful stay with some minor room for improvement.
