Sunway Hotel Georgetown (GPS: 5.414341, 100.325695) is a 4-star hotel on New Lane, in George Town, Penang. It is conveniently located near the row of coffee shops. The area is quite happening in the evening, when the coffee shops and nearby New Lane Hawker Centre are operating. There is a wide range of street rood to be enjoyed here.
Opened in 1994, Sunway Hotel Georgetown offers 250 rooms. The room types are Deluxe Room, Deluxe Club Room, Executive Room and Suites.
Hospitality at Sunway Hotel Georgetown was very good, though it was dented a little bit by an incident where the hotel parking attendant insisted on charging me parking fee, even though the hotel has already validated my parking ticket for free parking on that visit. Although the hotel managed to sort out the issue with its parking attendant, I felt it necessary not to sweep any unpleasant incidents under the carpet. Having said that, Sunway Hotel Georgetown remains recommendated for visitors looking for accommodation in George Town.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
