Kooning
What Guests Say
The location is super good. It is in the middle of George Town. We walked to all the attractions (Jetties, Little India, St George's Church, Fort Cornwallis, etc) on foot. Food stores and food markets were just a 5min walk away. Convenient self-check in, there were water dispensers with hot and cold water on each floor, the shower was hot, beds were clean and room was neat. Well, it was just fit for two girls. If you are big guys, then you might think the twin room is too small. Staff were super helpful. We checked out at noon and were able to leave our luggage for free until 5pm.

Loved the double sinks, the spacious bathroom, the lovely balcony overlooking the streets of Penang! It is in a very very good location. Love love loved the water dispensers on every floor and the vending machine located on the first. We also liked the luggage storage facilities and the table in the lobby to work after we have checked out. The whole process of late check in was very convenient with the key drop too!

The location of the hotel was great. Very easily walkable to all of the different spots in old town and a short grab ride away to the newer part of town. The shower had hot water and there was filtered water at the hotel. There was not daily cleaning, which was fine with us, but an FYI. There is also no elevator so you have to carry your luggage up/down stairs and walk up/down those daily to access the room.

The location is perfect!! Staff was friendly and helpful. The room is modern and offers most what you need. Very hot shower if you give the heater some time ;-) Shower screen! I didn't had any problem with climbing the ladder, even after some drinks. AC was working fine. Bed was comfy. Complementary water dispenser, with cold water. In total the price was okay for me.

Love this place. Everything is just right. Simple minimalist design. The amenities are basic but enough for a no-fuss traveller. The loft bed is awesome, just like sleeping in a cocoon. Which is also a tiny problem for a slightly old person like me 😅. FYI it is not disabled and elderly friendly. Kids will need extra caution. Location-wise, it is within walking distance of most local eateries. It is the same row as Hameediyah. Will recommend it to friends and family.

It’s not often that I give the full points for a hotel but that’s what Kooning deserves. Of course, everything is related to own objective and expectations. I was looking for: -Good central location in Georgetown -Quite, Cozy and daylight -Clean -Space -Good WLan -fair rate -a comfortable bed I got everything an on top very stylish room as well. I was already traveling a lot in Asia but this one is my absolute favourite and I would always come back. Bagage can be stored until 8 PM just due the fact that the counter is not present overnight. Cool and hot water for free and some drinks and snacks all the time available.

Good location, close to Little India, Campbell, Armenian and Chulia Street. Very easy to access all the main attractions by taxi/grab as well. Very friendly and approachable staff. Easy self check-in.

Beds were really comfy! The hotel was situated in a good spot in Georgetown, surrounded by food and tea houses. It was very convenient getting everywhere. We had trouble with checking in, but that could have been a technical glitch. At all times we encountered difficulties, the staff would be around to help, either through phone or via email. Water coolers were on each floor so it was very convenient. The whole place felt modern and hip, with a youthful feel to it.

The location is really very good with good delicious popular food. If any one like cat cafe, there is one a few shops to the left. The dim sum resturant next door is also quite nice and they open till 10pm. So it seem quite safe for walking at night. My room seem good for me. The lobby is spacious to take a rest after walking around. And the spacious small garden and self help drinking water a added adventage.

Great location with lots of fantastic food options nearby. We had the room with the balcony and dual sinks which really added to our overall experience. Even managed to see the sunset a few times from the balcony. Water machine with hot and cold was helpful.
