Company information

Aayu, which means 'life', reflects our focus on enhancing the quality and experience of living. The Aayu brand has been inspired by a singular, authentic, and original intent to create spaces that are minimal and calming to the souls yet bring resonance to the rich cultural past. Aayu properties are created holistically through a blend of natural-inspired elements and contemporary design into rich colourful heritage homes, prodding a clear definition between the old and new, and how both elements could come together to enliven one another. The Aayu brand aims to provide guests with a warm sense of heritage homes. Aayu is also featured in Robb Report Malaysia and Conde Nast Traveller.

Property information

Surrounded by heritage shophouses along the quiet Malay Street that was once a village path through the Malay and Achenese village, Aayu's tranquil hideaway invites guests to experience living in a fully-restored heritage house that has the period charm of a bygone era. Guests are able to self check in and check out online.

Neighbourhood information

Aayu Melayu is located in the heart of Georgetown, Penang, a Unesco world heritage site. It is within walking distance to notable local landmarks such as Armenian Street, Chew Jetty, Khoo Kongsi, Komtar, and Sia Boey Urban Archaeological Park.
