Yeah i booked Gurney Hotel for this weekend... now i just wondering from Sungai Nibong bus station to Gurney hotel teksi will around how much?

Would probably cost you the same or more than the bus fare (x1 pax) from KL to Penang. I estimate RM30 at least, now not sure coz of the recent price hike. Same as KL taxis, Penang taxis also do not run on meters.

By the way, from downtown to Gurney Hotel, RM12-15. So, in fact, can take bus to Butterworth, take the ferry across(RM1.20) and take taxi from ferry termina(Weld Quay)l to Gurney hotel.

cause the bus i took i bought ticket straight to penang so it tells me it only stop at Sungai Nibong ~~

it will cost u a bomb. but if under company can claim then nvm. at least RM40 my estimation. the rapid pg bus is another option but it is not reliable. sometimes need to wait for at least 30mins-1hr. but total cost less than RM5/person.

going penang this 22 thhhhhhhhhh

I'm running an annual dinner for my organization coming February so I'm currently looking for a hotel in Penang that suit the event. I would prefer a hotel near a beach because I planned to do some activities on the beach before the dinner starts.

Do I need to state my budget? My friend suggested me HardRock Hotel but it just too expensive, I can't afford it

So any hotel between 3-4 stars worth considering. Penangites, I need your help

Thank you so much for the feedback.

Park Royal/Rasa Sayang

Rasa Sayang +1

Rasa Sayang anam bintang Its under Shangri-La so I expect the price to be pricy Anyway, I sent a mail asking for quotation to them already. Hoping for good price.

Anymore suggestion?

Sandy Bay Paradise then

Thanks bro. I don't really know Penang well especially talking about looking for a place for event. If I not mistaken the Sandy Bay Paradise is near Tanjung Bunga/Batu Ferringi there?

evergreen is nice hotel
