This iconic hotel offers grand views of the coast in its newer and taller Victory Wing. Free yoga, evening wine & canapés, all day tea and coffee etc, u will be spoilt. Suites also worth the splurge.

If staying at Victory Anexe you have a choice of two breakfasts: light continental on the 6th floor or full buffet in Sarkies. Go for Sarkies in the morning and take your evening co*cktail on 6th.

If you are looking for hotel with state-of-the-art tech, or extremely flawless service, this is not for you. It is for you if you like theme hotels, plus it is one of the best in Penang.

The plus: iconic hotel, spacious rooms, comfortable bedding, good service, yummy CKT (b’fast buffet). The lows: dated (not the style), far from spotless, missing a certain charm, feels barebone/basic

Take the complimentary yoga class every morning 8:30-9:30 (check with reception beforehand). Consider how much a yoga class costs these days; plus it can only do you good.

Spacious, beautiful old-world style hotel with nice amenities. Love the balconies. Check to see which wing you are in!

Been here on several occasions. I love the old colonial style of the hotel. Service is good. The new wing rooms are still relatively new and is quite spacious.

This grand hotel has similar style as Raffles Hotel in Singapore, dig in a bit history then you will know why.

Venue rooms, good view. We didn't stay so can't comment on the rooms but looking at the lobby and facilities it looks like they have nice rooms to stay too.
Shukry ZawawiOctober 20, 2013
This hotel provides great customer service, magnificent view from the room, nice room concept, and great facilities. Overall, it's great. Good job.

Spotty wifi but it's free! Works best in morning when hotel guests are still asleep. Good enough to check out apps though, so search and download "EasyConvo" on the app stores!

This historical hotel, with amazing view. You are feel in 19th century.

Classic and full of heritage. Most of their room (all suite) are sea facing. Highly recommended.
Joe LimApril 10, 2015
First impression when entering the hotel is like I'm in the Raffles Hotel in Singapore! A very historical building!
Nicky HaznickNovember 8, 2016
..'bein' here is like you'd in colonial era..with awesome services and food dishes..one of few best hotels in penang aside shang'!..

The Victory Annexe is stunning! The decor is brilliant. The free food and drinks in the Planters Lounge is great!
Shirlyn EngApril 14, 2013

Breakfast buffet not great, dim sum feel like having dim sum in Thailand? Coffee made of cheap beans. Don't compare it to Mandarin Oriental of BKK.
Christopher JenJuly 10, 2022
It a peaceful hotel. Really enjoyable stay. Lots of history.
SuperJuly 13, 2015
Beautiful hotel design. Good environment. The room is not very spacious. Quite tight with everything fit in. The tea taste average. But lot of variety.

An outstanding colonial c1885 hotel of a bye gone era with cool classic ambience. Great pool!

Living in a heritage building. Everything is just nostalgia.
John BoothJuly 13, 2015
Stay in the old colonial section feels like another world rather than the modern wing.

Currently this is best hotel that I ever stayed #oldenglish #classic
Kenny TeohFebruary 9, 2011
The salmon sashimi is ok. But it's because they didn't prepare it, they just cut it. Please. If u think this buffet is worth the RM70 or RM100 at weekends, you need to go out of Pg a bit more n see.
Ziyan PngMay 7, 2017
Nice view and room design...From my balcony
George ah Jaws ♊July 12, 2015
It is just simply awesome!
Anisa HaddadSeptember 28, 2012
Our room is beautiful and impressively large, but the buffet is very disappointing. The curry is brown glop and the whole desert offering was lackluster. Restaurant staff wasn't friendly either.
Anhar ArshatAugust 25, 2013
Sarkies Corner serves Ala-carte while Sarkies Annex serves buffet lunch and dinner!

A long established & historical hotel in the city
alwyn gohDecember 25, 2010
Beautifully restored, but just missing that extra touch in comparable hotels ie raffles (in sg) and the galle face (sri lanka).
Carmynn de CarmenNovember 1, 2016
Best and heritage 5 star hotel ever
SebastianAugust 14, 2014
The small co*cktail bar has live music and decent drinks. Careful, the mint julep is good but tiny.
