★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I LOVED this place!!!
I was concerned before my visit, as I read some bad reviews prior to my stay. I arrived earlier than I was supposed to, they said it was no problem and welcomed me with a drink.
My room was beautiful, and very relaxing. I liked the feel of renting out the whole building, instead of just a room. Like some reviewers mentioned, Love Lane is a touristy street, but the hotel is located closer to the end of the street where it is not as loud. I did not mind the sound at all.
I also had a chance to talk to the manager (or may be the owner? I wish I asked her) of this place, which made the stay even more special. She told me that the broken ceramic pieces in the glass table at the lobby were something they found during they restore the building. From there, she showed me the book about the restoration at this place and the process of painting walls at this place. She also told me that they were in the process of choosing tea to go more environmentally friendly. She gave me a little box of tea when I asked where I could get this specific tea. She mentioned that the room I was in was actually the room she recently started having the noise complaints. As I said earlier, the noise was not that big of an issue, but she was saying that they were planning on putting insulation of some sort. Apparently, this street next to the room became one-way recently, and it started getting noises from the street as people tend to drive faster on one-way streets. This kind of informational chat is what makes places special. If you are staying at this place, make sure you get to know the place, instead of just taking nice selfies!!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not overly impressed. The hotel is tired and worn and some of the restaurations are just plain odd to say the least. The doors to our room looked like fire doors that went into a corridor and were really hard to open. On top of that, the lock is a joke and anyone could easily break into the room. The room was also quite dirty, especially if you looked up. Yes, I know this is a heritage building, but this is third such hotel we've stayed at in Georgetown and it's by far the worst out of the lot, while also being the most expensive. As some other reviewers have pointed out, there are also some very loud party places nearby, but the hotel is at least on the quieter end of love lane. On top of that, our AC sounded like a turboprop, which made it very hard to sleep. Staff was mostly uninterested and not the least bit friendly. Only upsides were the size of the room, the size of the bed, the water pressure and the location.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A beautiful terrace property on a lovely block of land. The restaurant used for breakfasts is also filled with character. Interesting antiques are found everywhere and the afternoon tea is a lovely thing to offer guests. The staff are helpful and friendly and the air conditioning is wonderful. Eateries are within easy walking distance. Would highly recommend a stay if looking for a property with charm and character.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The staff is very friendly and helpful!! A very serene boutique hotel that is located at the heritage site of Penang.
Though we are not the hotel guests, however, the staff allowed us to visit and shared a lot of information about the hotel with us.
Good to go....

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Always a good stay with great service from the team however, the upkeep of the place could be improved. The rooms smell muggy, mattress lumpy. Think the air conditioning needs a good servicing. The grounds are overgrown with weeds and look unkempt. Please fix this.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My husband and I recently stayed their with our 1 and a half year old son and absolutely loved it. We stayed in the Straits Eclectic building and our suite was beautiful, confortable and spacious. Also, for those that are wondering (because I often do when I read reviews) the bathroom was big, airy, has North American style toilets and is well designed.
Breakfast was included and was really delicious. Freshly squeezed juice was a welcome treat in the mornings and on return from hot excursions in Penang. Location is within walking distance to all points of interest in Georgetown; so superb. Parking offered for the hotel is in the street and was never a problem for us.
Best part of the stay was chatting with the owner who was absolutely wonderful and has clearly renovated and decorated these buildings with much love. As well the staff she has hired are excellent at what they do. They always went out of their way to help (even fixing a broken A/C unit in the middle of the night!).
I highly recommend this hotel. It will definitely not disappoint!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Gorgeous little boutique hotel, ten rooms and such a wonderful place to stay. My new favorite hotel in Penang! Such a quaint, tranquil place to spend a few nights as you explore Georgetown or bike the island! Staff are fantastic, there's a restaurant attached, breakfast is wonderful and location is perfect. I'll be back.
