Located in George Town, 2.4 km from Northam Beach, Cocoa Mews Cafe and Homestay provides accommodation with a shared lounge, free WiFi and a shared kitchen. The property is around 2 km from Penang Times Square, 8.2 km from Straits Quay and 8.2 km from Penang Botanic Gardens. Penang Hill is 9.4 km from the guest house and Queensbay Mall is 12 km away. What a difference a staff that actually cares can make. This is a small place with only a few rooms that has not been renovated to cram as many beds as possible in tiny box rooms for maximum profit, but a very chill home with a great vibe and staff that make you feel like part of the family. King Arthur was so helpful and sweet during our stay. The free breakfast changed everyday and always some great local food, not just butter/toast/jam (which is also available 24/7) And of course the cats were sweet and nice to play with, and if you let them, they will sleep in your room with you to enjoy the AC. They had a groupchat to let everyone know what events were happening in town and recommendations for food or day trips. And as many would like to know, soft comfortable mattress and hot water!

Offering a garden and garden view, Nature Fruit Farm - Private Estate is located in Balik Pulau, 23 km from Penang Hill and 23 km from Taman Rimba Teluk Bahang. The property features mountain and river views, and is 18 km from Queensbay Mall. The guest house provides rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. This is such a beautiful and special place! Everything was so nicely done and beautifully decorated. Our room was very comfortable for our family of 4. The included breakfast was really good and different each day. The owners were so friendly! They took the time to chat with us and it was so nice to exchange with them and learn more about durian fruit. And we go to try a durian that had just been picked from the tree . It made all the difference and gave us the chance to appreciate the fruit a bit more!! We had a rental car, which I feel it is the best way to explore this part of the island, but you can easily come by Grab and order Grab Food for dinner; plenty of outdoor tables and chairs at the farm. We really enjoyed our time at Nature Fruit Farm and hope to be back one day!
