“Great Value & Prime Location in the Heart of George Town”
Cititel Express Penang was a great choice for a budget-friendly yet comfortable stay right in the heart of George Town. It offers clean, modern rooms and excellent convenience for travelers who want to explore the UNESCO heritage zone without breaking the bank.
Check-in & Service:
Check-in was fast and smooth. The front desk staff were polite, efficient, and always ready to help with local tips or transportation advice. While the service is simple, it’s professional and gets the job done.
Room:
I stayed in a Superior Room. It was compact, as expected, but very clean and well-maintained. The bed was surprisingly comfortable, the linens fresh, and everything functioned well including the air-con and hot shower. The view from the higher floors was a bonus, overlooking parts of the city skyline.
Location:
This is the hotel’s strongest point—super central. It’s within walking distance to street art trails, famous hawker stalls, and local attractions like KOMTAR and Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion. You’ll never run out of food options nearby, from traditional kopitiams to modern cafes. Plus, there’s a convenience store right at the entrance!
Facilities:
While the hotel is basic (no pool or gym), it has all the essentials: free Wi-Fi, luggage storage, and secure parking for those driving. It’s ideal for short stays or those who plan to be out exploring most of the time.
Overall:
Cititel Express Penang is a solid pick for travelers who want affordable comfort in a fantastic location. Great for solo adventurers, couples, or even families on a budget. I’d definitely stay again for the unbeatable value and easy access to George Town’s best sights and eats.
