The century-old building in George Town has poor sound insulation. The facilities are not complete, but the service is very good. The scenic spots and restaurants introduced by the hotel staff are all delicious.

The location is diagonally opposite Penang Blue House. It is in a key location. It is understandable that the cost is not affordable. However, the room is really too small. I went to bed three steps after opening the door for the first time. Although the bathroom is larger than usual and clean and fresh, there is only one transparent The bright window is behind the bathroom mirror, which I believe faces the swimming pool. It cannot be opened, but the sound of children playing noisily can be heard! Personally, I have always disliked windowless hotel rooms. … What is commendable is that there is a 24-hour lounge for residents, where you can enjoy simple drinks and snacks, and a glass of red and white table wine is given at 6pm! In addition, the staff are very enthusiastic to help, no matter introducing the environment, or recommending nearby attractions and restaurants! Thank you so much!

The hotel is too old. To be honest, it is no longer suitable to continue operating. When I stayed at the hotel at two o'clock in the morning, I encountered someone climbing through the window. I was so scared that I woke up and couldn't sleep. The sound insulation was also very poor. I could hear the snoring next door. I checked out the next day and the hotel did not provide any compensation. It was so scary. It's an old hotel. It's actually very shady and feels very evil. It's recommended that you don't stay there.

This is my second time stay at The Edison. I love it so much. The room, facilities and especially the hospitality. It feels like staying at your own home. Will definitely repeat again.
