Seven Terraces

Had a lovely stay at 7 terraces. It's in a nice location to walk around Georgetown. The room was beautifully restored and had all the facilities you'd need - comfy beds and even a nesspreso machine. There is a nice pool area too. The staff were very helpful when we needed a trip to a doctor. They showed great kindness that was very appreciated. We stayed in one of the apartments with 4 adults- there was a double and 2 single beds (upstairs) it was spacious and comfortable with a nice little roof terrace. Sometimes these kinds of places can feel a little stuffy, but not here. The staff were so friendly. It has a lift to the 2nd floor - but be mindful there are steps here and there due to the age of the property.

Hotel is located in a quiet back alley steps away from hustle and bustle of Chulia Street, one block away from Little India. Beautiful, traditional Chinese interior design, furniture and room decor. Inside the rooms all modern conveniences including well functioning AC, Wi-Fi, TV, refrigerator and safe. Charming, helpful staff that greet and bid farewell to guests outside the front door. Quick help with luggage and efficient room cleaning. Daily snacks and tea at poolside at 3pm. Top-notch Kebaya restaurant on premises (advance reservations needed for dinner). Breakfast is served a la carte in one of the beautifully decorated rooms downstairs. Special thanks go to Nurul for her smiling face and for professional attention to all our needs.

We loved the traditional design and antique furnishings in this historic "Nyonya" style building. It was in a quiet back road in a central location with lots of cafés and restaurants nearby. After walking through busy and hot Georgetown, it felt like coming back to a calm, cool sanctuary. The staff were very friendly, happy to chat and helpful.

Hospitable, knowledgeable and helpful staff at all levels (including cleaning staff, restaurant and bar staff, museum/gallery and antique shop staff, front office managers and staff) who were able to answer questions, respond to requests and make suggestions which were both informative and helpful. Returning after a number of years, we found that the premises continue to be well-appointed and maintained, offering and delivering a level of excellence expected of a boutique-style hotel - but with many special touches which improved the experience.

This a totally unique experience. It is inadequate to call Seven Terraces a 'hotel'. It is so much more. It is really a trip into the past, to experience a sample of Penang Nyonya culture, but with all the modern conveniences we need for our comfort nowadays. All the furnishings, the layout, the design, everything shows great care and attention to detail, recreating a space that truly feels unique and authentic. The evening dinner in the Kebaya restaurant was equally amazing. The choice of food on the menu and the methods of preparation were truly tempting and really delicious. I can recommend the Satay starter, also the Rendang Croque Monsieur. For the main course, the Prawn Geng was delicious, and the Hong Bak Lamb shank was 'melt in the mouth'. The grilled eggplant was my favourite vegetable. They offered a 'side dish' of Soft Shell Crab which we tried. We all thought it was the best dish of all, and deserving of more than just 'side dish' status! The service at the meal was very good, and all the staff were very helpful and friendly. Mr.Omar at the front desk was especially accomodating to our requests. We will definitely be back in future.
