Botanic Hill Lodge

Not in the centre of Georgetown but in a quiet green surroundings , except the road and bus stops .Hotel situated 10 min walk from thai embassy ,15 minutes to gurney drive ( seaside ) street with 2 good malls . 5 minutes to Chinese food court with. cheap local dinings. The stuff is very hospital and always friendly . It was raining 1 st day and they gave us an umbrella, helped with advices about Penang sightseeings and how to reach them fast . Gave us for free two good bicycles which made our ride throughout city much easier . Thanks them a lot . The rooms are clean , there is coffee , cups , plates , tv ,hot water . No windows , office lightening , not much space - not a good choice for whom liked to spend much time at a Hotel . drinking water , fridge and microwave is on the 2nd floor . Walls are thin and you hear all the sounds from the hall . We are active travelers so for us it was not inconvenient and cheap , we don't expect much and liked stay here . If u d like comfort and so on I recommend eastern oriental hotel .
