George Town is a culturally and historically rich place, and staying in Kelantan House offers you the opportunity to experience what life was like in Penang in the 18th and 19th centuries.
The location is also quiet even if it's right in the middle of the city. Will definitely stay here again.

This hotel is good for those who want to feel the atmosphere of the life in the old shophouse.
I felt like I’m having a home stay.
The location is not convenient to access to the historical sightseeing area, but you can use Grab.

Big thumbs up to all the staff in particular Marcus with his knowledge and anecdotes about Penang and he even went out of his way to write a list of all the local specialties to eat
We were also allowed to check in 2 hours ahead
Great service ethic
Definitely will stay again 👍🤗

Beautiful house - must stay place in Georgetown
Super clean and a beautiful heritage house. Our room was very comfortable and even though the bathroom was outside the room we didn’t mind as this was such a great chance to stay somewhere special and unique. Complementary water, coffees and snacks were a nice addition.

Nice environment
It's walking to many nice food. The staffs are very nice and helpful. Should be nice and peaceful during off peak, it's probably more noisy if all rooms are taken up as the place is mostly wood, so walking around will create some noise.
Overall, Im very happy staying at Kelantan House.

Great value in tourist area
Great value and extremely friendly and helpful staff. You can walk to the tourist area or there's a bus stop right outside. Nice tea/coffee/snacks all day long. The only downside is having to bring your key every time you want to use the bathroom.

Ambiance sympa. Très propre. belle grande chambre. Mais salle de bain séparée nécessitant de traverser le hall d'entrée et pas mentionné dans l'offre et surtout très très bruyant. Nous avons eu l'impression d'être réveillée par un éléphant. Nous étions au rez de chaussée. Sans doute qu'il est mieux de demander d'être au dernier étage. Sinon personnel sympathique et endroit bien situé.

Goede locatie, smaakvol ingerichte Chinese woning
Jammer dat er geen sleutel van de voordeur wordt verstrekt, men vraagt de kamersleutel bij betrek in te leveren. De eerste avond hebben wij lang moeten wachten tot er opengedaan werd na aanbellen.ee is een privé badkamer maar niet ensuite. Er worden wel slippers maar geen badjassen aangeboden. dit is op de site niet duidelijk. De kamer heeft geen raam, ook dit is niet duidelijk aangegeven. De mineraalwaterservice is eenmalig bij aankomst en niet dagelijks. Er is gekoelde frisdrank te koop maar geen water. De enige handdoek werd niet automatisch verwisseld dagelijks, wel op vraag. De locatie is goed en de inrichting is prachtig. Wij vonden na 4 nachten verblijf en ervaring elders deze accommodatie te duur voor het gebodene. Geen ontbijtservice, wel goed maleis ontbijt te vinden op loopafstand. De gratis CAT bus- en streekvervoer halte zijn om de hoek.
