Good staff in the bar and housekeeping
Other areas need more attention restaurant in particular
Limited food choices. But lots of places to eat outside in walking distance.
Beach in front of hotel good but could do with some more sunbeds and Matt's.
Enjoyed the stay and would return with managed expectations

Nice hotel near(ish) to George Town
Nice hotel on north coast of Penang. The pool was great. Quite far from George Town but only 20-25 minutes by bus. Bus stop was outside hotel. The hotel was a long way from the airport, so I recommend using the Grab app to get to the hotel. We also used Grab to get to Penang Hill and Kek Lok Si temple. The room was really nice and spacious. Breakfast was good.

Another review mentioned weak Wi-Fi connectivity, but we had no problems at all and were comfortable. Good staff , service and easy access to many places. It was a nice hotel, not too expensive.

Lack of room amenities
Room consider clean and comfort, outdoor parking are limited but hotel have indoor parking next to the building.
One of the point like to share is lack of room amenities. The superior room (road view) do not have bathmat, no hand tower (but provide face tower) which i think are essential.

Great hotel but cramped bathroom
It's a nice hotel for the rate charged. Great service and nice location by the beach. Only complaint I have is the cramped bathroom. The door to the bathroom opens inwards and makes it very tight to move around in the bathroom. I don't understand why they don't have the door open outwards instead. The door frames will allow that.

February stay
The hotel is in a good position with direct access to the beech, 20 mins by taxi from central Georgetown.
The staff are helpful. Th bedrooms are ok but pretty tired - Mercure should look an overhaul of the furniture and decor. Bedrooms also suffer from corridor noise at night.
No bar during day and big opportunity to sell food and drink during the day missed. I can’t really recommend as there is not enough nearby to compensate for Hotel offer.

Off site parking is not free and no proper guide from hotel staff .
With this rental rate .. hotel should give free parking .
