Besides hotel Malaysia wat other hotel or motel range below RM100?

Thank ppl!

I stay at Hotel Malaysia alot of times. 3 star hotel with breakfast. Very budget kind of hotel.

For more comfort, you guys can try out Cititel Hotel, i think the rate is around 155 onwards. Now Hong Leong card holder can enjoy the room from RM140 onwards.

You may try Vistana Hotel too. Always pack and full. The rooms are very clean. Even better than Cititel Penang. All is under RM200 budget.

eh... this is a repeated thread leh... go look for another thread...

i stayed at evergreen... but i would recommend g hotel... maybe d prices a bit high...

You can try berjaya hotel..room is nice n the hotel is beside starbucks.Rate is around rm160.

Town - Cititel, Sunway Hotel, Traders Hotel - under RM150

G.Drive - Gurney Hotel, G Hotel, Evergreen, Northam

Citittel is good....it is in town....otherwise, just go Batu Ferringhi...all nice...

Well, i prefer Hotel City Bayview because there are so many pubs behind this hotel and if you have where2go membership card, you can get discounts at selected pubs and cheaper hotel rates

Welcome to Penang.

Penang is famous for its Nasi Kandar. Do try and and have a taste.
While there, you may want to ask the waiter, when would be the next gathering.
If you are lucky to be invited to one, you might even get a RM 100 for your efforts.

To hang out in a non-touristy trap place, I would suggest Komtar.
Not to be confused with the Sg Wang wannabe Prangin Mall, Komtar is the real deal.
Just in there you can see a melting pots of regional country shops, a truly multicultural group of people gathering around inside the shopping centre.
Since Penang hires a lot of foreign talents, Komtar has been their defacto gathering place for these groups of selected expatriates.

For the so called 'stuffs', you happened to come at the right time to one of the top event of penang.
Held annually in Mount Erskine, it is truly a sight to behold.
The annual fest see Mount Erskine transform from a normal mountain to a smoky one, which from far would reminds you of an active volcano.

To see this, just pick a weekend from now on. It should be easy to reach, since most people would drive there.
Just join in the crowds.

For shopping, the most secret best place to get a bargain can be found in the corner of lebuh armenian and the sun yat sen house.
It is a market that offers nothing like this in the whole of Penang, and usually operates about dusk anyday.
Located in the historical enclaves, you can wander from stall to stall marvelling at the items there.
Looking for a classic Puma runner that could be a collectible item ? Look no further than this specialised market.

I hope all this will help to put you into a better perspective that Penang is not a tourist traps.
Hope you will enjoy this island so much you will come back again.

Really.

Hi,May i know which part of Penang can see sunset?

Sunway hotel quite cheap.. RM180-200 per nite and is near to Georgetown and food.. New Lane is within walking distance..

Have I busted any arteries ?

Alright, patched it up and remember you owe me one.
Bukit Genting.

I agree with you bro .. City Bayview, Hotel Malaysia, Continental or E&O is the best place to stay cause the nightlife is just there but shopping you'll have to take cab and it's not far except for Queensbay.... food in Penang is reasonable except for some place ... Batu Feringgi area is for thos who wants to relax and feel the sea breeze ... night time also not bad but far from town ...

i liked the kek lok si temple very much, even though it's under heavy renovation


whatever you do, don't jump into the sea! a lot of jelly fish =___________________="

Batu Ferringhi. Can see sunset there. Can BBQ there too.
