QUOTE(StarCandy @ Aug 11 2011, 03:52 PM) 1. Can anyone recommend hotel that is around the capital city? No have you budget at 3-4 star. At your budget mostly 1-2 Star in the Georgetown.Somemore budget around rm60-150? Preferably 3-4 star as we just a student? 5 ppl difficult to travel in taxi unless really small size. Any budget for car rental ...any valid license to drive? Public transport ok is you dun mind waiting and long duration of travel. What are you/your ppl interest? Halal or not?

QUOTE(StarCandy @ Aug 11 2011, 07:13 PM) Ohh...like that... StarCandy / (Dackson) Car rental is about RM140 per day inclusive of insurance. If have garmin GPS then very easy.But we don't know the budget of the car rental....we have valid license to drive, but we don't know the roads in Penang... We are interest in sigh-seeing, shopping and eating.... We prefer non-Halal.... Can u suggest more recommendation? What time you arrived in Penang? by Bus or flight? You check-in 1st or wat? If early after check in you do the heritage walk then lunch - Nasi kandar there? Wat you wan to shop in Penang? Biscuit, belacan or local preserved nutmeg? Wat time must you leave Penang?

QUOTE(Kenzany @ Nov 10 2011, 12:15 AM) so if want sightseeing its better to go during daytime?.. or rather.. is there anything to sight for? LOL.. is the night view there magnificient? is it worth the time to spend and dropping by to see? do the Georgetown heritage trail in the morning. Drop by the Straits quay in the evening for very nice dinning if you like crispy pork knuckle + Hoegaarden. if not you can skip this place. No worries! http://www.healymacs.com/barmenu.html |

QUOTE(OKLY @ Dec 19 2011, 02:52 PM) Is Holiday Inn a good place to stay for its price or is there one with better value? Saw at Agoda the rates are about RM320 per night and have searched at various sites for reviews and many are giving thumbs up for its cleanliness and comfort. Quite true. If book holiday inn try get the sea front building.However Hydro Hotel caught my attention at much cheaper rates but reviews are also saying that a lot of old furniture and prepare to expect some musky smell also.
