4 Star Penang Holidays

I checked into this lovely hotel for a two-night stay and was pleasantly surprised with an upgrade upon arrival! The room was incredibly cozy and spotlessly clean, making it the perfect retreat after a day of exploring. What truly stood out during my stay was the friendliness of the staff. They were always ready with a smile and willing to help with any inquiries I had. It’s clear that they genuinely care about making your stay enjoyable. The location is another highlight; it’s just a short walk to the Ferringhi Market, which is packed with local vendors and delicious food options. Overall, my experience was fantastic, and I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming place to stay!

I would love to give a higher rating for my two-night stay here, but several things didn’t meet expectations considering the reputation and cost of this place. - The sheets and pillows were mouldy, and we came home with acne, which I suspect was because of this. - It wasn’t particularly clean, especially the hot tub on the balcony, which looked neglected. The furniture also felt a bit outdated. - Service was slow. We had to call twice when requesting something, and even then, they didn’t bring everything we asked for. - While I understand this might be outside the hotel’s control, the beach area in front of the hotel was crowded with tents from vendors offering water sports and massages, which made it hard to just relax and enjoy the beach. On the bright side, the view from the balcony was nice, and location was really good as it was within walking distance to other beach bars. Breakfast was okay in that they offered dairy-free milk options for their coffee. Overall, it wasn’t a terrible stay, but it didn’t feel worth the cost.

Stayed for 4D3N at this wonderful hotel. The breakfast was good but can be improved - comparing to Le Meridien KL with more selections. The room was filled with musty smell when I first entered the room but it’s okay after I opened the balcony door for better air circulation. The hotel ground has nice rows of pines and good grassy areas. It’s very accessible to the beach and within walking distance to nearby convenience store (Family Mart). I enjoyed the pool too. Housekeeping staffs are very helpful to keep the room tidy and always replenish the toiletries. As a Marriott Bonvoy member, I’m satisfied my money is well spent in this hotel.

Lone Pine is a fantastic destination that I’m grateful to have experienced. The surroundings are beautiful, and the rooms are well-appointed and comfortable. The staff provides excellent service, making you feel welcomed throughout your stay. I particularly enjoyed the sound of the waves from the nearby beach, which added to the relaxing atmosphere. The breakfast was a highlight, with a fantastic variety of delicious options. Highly recommended for a memorable getaway!

Overall had a pleasant experience. The hotel facilities were impeccably clean, and the service was both friendly and prompt, which made the stay comfortable. However, I was disappointed with the high tea experience. The tea lacked flavor due to a single tea bag being used in a large pot, and the accompanying food seemed to be recycled from the breakfast buffet either that morning or the previous day. It didn’t feel worth the price. On a positive note, my family and I made great use of the entertainment room, especially enjoying the ping pong table, which we used thoroughly during our stay. Unfortunately, one downside was the unpleasant smell coming from a public stream that passed near our room. I would still recommend for its clean facilities, attentive staff, and overall convenient location. It was a good experience, but there’s definitely room for improvement.

The Breakfast spread is very good with wide choice of foods available to suit any nationality. Service at the hotel is good from the start. Bell boys take your cases and direct you to check in. Check in process very smooth. Choice of pools for children and adults alike. Very close to the beach. Great for families.

If you are looking for a resort to bring your family to, this is a great place, therefore the 4 stars. They have so many kid friendly events and opportunities. Very safe resort. The opposite on the inland side, not very inviting. An advice is to include breakfast and stay away from the hotel restaurants, they do not deliver value for money. The food and drinks are in general too expensive. The watersports people at the beach are annoyingly pushy and you won't enjoy the beach because of them, luckily the resort has a security guard at the entrance. For dinner, walk along the beach for a bit, there are much better places to eat than at the resort - still expensive though.

The resort is located in Batu Ferringhi which makes travelling to Georgetown where most of the attractions are located difficult, especially during the holidays. Beyond that, the service is fantastic, the buffet has good variety and there are plenty of activities in the resort for kids. The food just across the hotel is decent if you don’t want to travel to Georgetown. The beach view is beautiful

We arrived here after staying at Shangri-La Sentosa, which was one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. My experience here was good because of the company I had however this hotel is your standard 4 star hotel. This is what I experienced and observed. No alternative milk besides Soy, rooms were quite outdated. Outside had a fantastic kids pool and games area. Big balcony's which had a lot of wasted space. Laundry service which you pay extra for. Additionally, the buffet breakfast menu was average. Kids' corner had mostly unhealthy food like candy and doughnuts. Would have liked to have seen more healthier options. Service was average. Sometime we needed assistance but it was hard to get some help to find staff otherwise they would be helpful when we found them. Pool service doesn't start until 11, so you can't order anything unless you go out of the pool area and to the restaurant. Room service was standard.

Kids friendly hotel. Very good service. Nice bed & beautiful spacious room. Beachfront access. I will recommend this hotel to others. Fast check in & check out.

We organized a team-building event here, and the place truly rocks—literally, haha! The service was exceptional, definitely 5-star (or even more). The hall they provided was spacious and had musical instruments, which made the breaks even more enjoyable, especially with free-flow coffee available. The tea break food was delicious, and the beach and pool were absolutely beautiful. The entire experience was fantastic, and considering the price we paid, it was definitely worth every penny. Highly recommend!

Impressed that after more than a decade the swimming pool area is still well maintained. Breakfast is adequate, fruits are my favourite. There is a game room for the kid adult. The beach is more suitable for morning/evening strolls. Parking space in the hotel runs out fast but there is another one nearby with pick-up provided.

Spend time here with my family and relatives. It was 3 nights of enjoyable stay even though I didn't do much. My room was pool side view. Even though the weather was a bit on the wet side but that didn't stop the children enjoying in the pool. The breakfast provided in the room package was superb. Lots and lots of delicious food variety. I missed it already. The Fender guitars, head phones and mini amp available from the teen club was just great. I was impressed of the Beatles theme at the hotel as they are still my fav band. Rooms portraying graphic rock artistes on the walls are just what a Hard Rock Hotel meant. These few things certainly are not available in any other normal hotels. Kudos to the management, food and beverage dept. Hoping to come back here in the future.

Hard Rock Hotel Penang is one of our favorite places to stay. We've been there a few times, both on our own and at least once a year for the last 4 years with our nephew and niece during their school holidays. They absolutely love it there The vibe is lively and fun, with a young and energetic feel. The pool is a big hit, especially with the slides and water play areas, and the beach is just steps away. We also enjoy relaxing by the pool while the kids have a great time. It’s always a treat to visit . A place we’d recommend .

This is my second time staying here. We fell in love with the service and view from the room. It is a bit pricey but worth it. Direct access to the pool from the room and easy to monitor our kids. Service is top notch and it seems that everything is thoroughly thought out for our stay. There’s kids club filled with fun activities, amenities are great and easy access to the beach. The breakfast was mediocre but offers a lot of variety. Will return for sure
