Darrell
The staff were warm, friendly and helpful. In particular, Kumar who was manning the front of the house and check-in was most accommodating and left an indelible impression on us with his generosity and making the stay most memorable.
Craig
Unique place, a very different experience. Worth a night or 2, staff where a very mixed bag of very helpful and some not so. Think it's a bit overpriced but location is good for the old town!! Breakfast pretty basic
ELIZABETH
Wonderful stay - very comfortable but the highlight was Kumar who made me feel so welcome and provided such excellent advice on places and things to do !
Charlotte
Great location, comfy room and very friendly helpful staff who gave us a wonderful intro to the local area. Also a nice breakfast too! Would recommend and stay again if we come back
Zarati Zarate
Great hotel to stay in Georgetown! First the staff was amazing, always ready to help, gave us several tips, marked the must see places on a map and how to get there, they were all great! The hotel is well located with main attractions walking distance: hotel is really well kept. Restaurant is really good and the service was really good. Rooms were clean and the daily treats were really good. Overall I would go back, no hesitation
Edward
Superb in every way. This former Penang shophouse has deservedly won awards as Malaysia’s best boutique hotel. The location is excellent, and the decor lovely, but it is the service and the staff that take it well beyond 5 stars. Over our 10 night stay we were made to feel simultaneously like family and celebrity VIPs. A bonus is the 4-times Michelin recognized Italian restaurant (Il Bacaro) on site.
Stephen
Great locatiin, welcoming staff, amazing historic building with antique furnishings, clean and comfortable air conditioned rooms, and breakfast available.
Eric
The staff was great, especially Kumar at check in. Hotel and rooms are beautiful, historic, and quaint. On site restaurant had an excellent Valentine’s Day set dinner, and the breakfast included the next morning was perfectly done.
Lawrence
I appreciate all the details in this hotel - nostalgic, old fashioned including decorations, food and service.
JAIME
Superb service, great Italian food, barista original coffee service, unbeatable location, cozzy
Jennifer
I would definitely recommend this hotel to visitors of Georgetown. It is a charming and quaint hotel. It is in a great location and the hotel staff are beyond gracious and hospitable. The morning breakfast was also delicious. My only one (small) heads up is to avoid using their 3rd party laundry service. I was not pleased with things in that sense. Otherwise, it was great experience!
Blas
Fantastic and helpful staff
Anusha
Lovely hotel in heart of Georgetown
Excellent location, a charming hotel with a real sense of history to it.
Nice touch to have little treats left in the room each night.
Breakfast tasted lovely but choosing more options from the menu would be nice. Plus this took quite a while. This was the only downside

Friendly boutique hotel in the heart of Georgetown
We picked Campbell House for it's location and weren't disappointed as it is a short walk from the likes of Love Lane with a great selection of bars and restaurants. Had a great time exploring the local area, spotting all the wall art/murals. Also really convenient for using Grab to get a taxi to Penang Hill and Kek Lok See temple. The rooms are stylish and comfortable (we were in the Loft, a duplex room) and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Added bonus having a fantastic, authentic Italian restaurant on-site which is where you have breakfast. So good we ate there twice in the evening over the course of our 4 night stay. Highly recommend if you want to be in the midst of Georgetown
Nahim
A luxury gem in a great location
Our stay at Campbell House was wonderful, and we couldn't recommend this hotel more highly. The whole team were amazing at their roles, but Kumar was a star, making us feel immediately welcome and also recommending great sights and eateries for us. The hotel itself is beautifully decorated and immerses guests in history whilst keeping all modern amenities. The daily desserts and welcome beverages were an especially appreciated touch. We really appreciated the no shoes policy, as it helped us to feel comfortable and assured us that the rooms were clean and well cared for. We also appreciated how seamlessly the hotel managed with Penang authority water maintenance works - we had everything we needed and didn't deal with any disturbances. We look forward to visiting again, and have already recommended the hotel to friends and family.
Samuel
Incredible, our favourite hotel this trip!
We had a wonderful time staying at Campbell House. We felt incredibly welcome, the rooms were clean and well kept and the hotel kept so much of its heritage and charm. The staff were wonderful, the terrace was lovely and the on-site restaurant is break. If we are back in Georgetown, we will definitely come back here!
Michael
Excellent choice!
Everything about this hotel was just right. Excellent service, attention to detail, great location and charming building.
Philip
Sadly a little disappointed
The good: the staff were friendly and helpful, the breakfast, the overall ambiance and condition (beautiful restoration of the building), free cake every day was a lovely touch.
The less good: standard room is smaller than expected and lacks charm (bed is also only a small double), wooden floors look good but are very slippery (you have to take off your shoes downstairs) and the rugs on top slide so much as to be dangerous.
The bad: we were clearly unlucky, but our air conditioning would not get cold, an attempt to fix it managed only a slight improvement, sleeping so badly in the heat left us groggy every morning and unable to enjoy the breakfast. Lovely staff tried to help, but it was out of their control.
Such a shame.

A delightful stay in the heart of old town. Each room is a unique individual creation with vintage furnishings. The breakfast is amazing and the staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Everyday the chef creates a special desert and delivers it to each of the twelve boutique rooms. A must stay if you are going to Georgetown, Malaysia.
Catrillia
Beautiful boutique hotel
We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful and cozy hotel. The staff is phenomenal and each person made us feel welcomed. The breakfast was delicious giving us the energy we needed for long days of touring the city. A special treat was coming back and having a dessert left in the fridge for us to enjoy before settling in for the night. And we got so many wonderful recommendations for sightseeing and restaurants to check out. This place is truly a gem and I’d be thrilled to have a second stay on our next trip to Penang!

Hotel location is FOODIE’S dream.
Location is EXCELLENT for foodies to Penang! Lots of great food choices within short walking distance or even on the same block. Many Michelin mentioned food stalls and restaurants near by. This hotel is a 100+ year old home turned into boutique hotel that services like a normal hotel. If you like history and antiques this would be heaven for you.
Showers and beds are excellent. Daily afternoon treat and freshment drink to your room!
We are avid travelers who are fairly picky and we would recommend this hotel to our friends.

A unique boutique hotel located in the central area of Georgetown. It is convenient and walkable to most of attractions in the area. Staffs are friendly and helpful. I would recommend to my friends who wants to visit the area.
Annabel
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The hotel was in a great location and really beautifully renovated with historic charm. Staff could not have been more helpful - from recommending activities to restaurants and helping us with any small queries! We also dined in the restaurant and the Italian food was excellent also.
Justin
Calm and charm
An oasis of calm in the storm of Georgetown. A wonderfully restored building that shows how a small hotel should be run, such attentive and friendly people who cannot do enough for you. Thank you for our time with you and you help and service.
David
Great small hotel to stay in. 12 rooms each individual to make very homely. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Nice touch daily complimentary treat. Good breakfast and good coffee.

Great place to stay, clean, quiet, great breakfast, feels like home.
Xin Ting
Unique property as each room has a different theme. I particularly enjoy the overall Nyonya, Peranakan vibes to the hotel. It was by the road but not noisy. Convenient location to explore Georgetown as well, walkable to many places.
Edgard

Campbell House is a lovingly restored hotel in Georgetown. We stayed in the Loft and Opium rooms and loved it. The owner and her team treated us like royalty. Highly recommend.
Cecilia
Breakfast should have more variety.
Told we couldn’t have a second plate of fresh fruit, only one plate per table.

Excellent service and comfortable
I love this hotel, is in heritage site of Georgetown. Is like staying in a hotel but more of historical house. The services are excellent. Everything from breakfast in the morning to coming back to the bedroom, so clean. Every day there is a nice sweet treat. Definitely give it a 5 stars 🌟. I be back again
An
The location was perfect and the staff was the best ever. Excellent service. They go out of their way to make sure they are well taken care of. We really enjoyed our stay here.

Grace
Campbell House is a lovely restored property owned by a wonderful couple with an amazing staff of kind, friendly, helpful locals who went out of their way to see to our every need. From the owners, themselves (setting a stellar example to follow), to the night watchman who checked us in @ midnight with a much-appreciated snack; the front desk staff who pointed us in the correct directions for food, shopping, temples, etc., to the servers in the Michelin-starred on-site restaurant who packed us breakfast for our very early flight out of Penang; we felt like we had hit the jackpot of boutique properties. Should we ever venture to his area of the world again, we would most definitely look forward to being warmly welcomed back to Campbell House by Roberto and Nardya and their loyal staff.
Mark
Worth checking out.
A very nice small hotel. Good service and the rooms are very well appointed and comfortable. Staff is attentive and informative. Great area. Only drawback is a lack of a lift although they are accommodating by hositing you luggage up to the floors where the rooms are.

Wonderful stay with Campbell
Wonderful stay that the hotel has upgraded us to deluxe room as the standard room air cond is not working. The room is clean, and provided with compliment daily homemade bakery which is delicious. Free breakfast is also worthwhile and delicious, serving with various fruits daily, and there is multiple options of breakfast set. Hope to back again !
David
Elegant boutique hotel
A beautiful and elegant boutique hotel. A little bit noisy but a perfect location to explore the nuances and treasures of old Penang. Service was first class, the restaurant also excellent. Breakfast was included and was sumptuous and plentiful. We had The Loft room but next time would prefer the larger single level rooms which are more user friendly I feel. The decor is world class and owner Nadia has kept the feel of the colonial times with modern conveniences Thankyou. We’re going to make this our regular staycation!
Martin

A definite must try !
I have stayed in hotels in over 80 different countries and I must say that I am seriously impressed with Campbell House.
From check-in to check-out, I felt welcomed by all the staff. The breakfast options are numerous and delicious and a definite must try!
I am making this my regular hotel anytime I return to Penang.

Wonderful heritage hotel in central location with great food and exceptional service, highly recommended!

Location is excellent, walking distance to most attractions.
Cons:
- wifi in room is literally non-existent. Informed reception but nothing has been or could be done. Access to wifi in public area has to go through Facebook or twitter
- has to deposit key at reception each time you go out & collect it when back. This is mentioned in other reviews so it’s expected.

Very helpful staff on arrival. Best hotel in Penang’s historical district. I did encounter a problem st checkin though. I believe that breakfast was included with the room. They claim it was not ands I looked at my Expedia receipt and it was not. I don’t fault the hotel but Expedia for this. It’s like bait and switch!

They are doing it RIGHT at Campbell House. Service is excellent and the people are like-able. We had a wonderful and relaxing stay, setting our own pace without intrusion from people wanting to serve us, yet service was readily available when we wanted something. Thanks Nardia and Roberto and staff!

Gorgeous rooms and great staff! They gave us a great breakfast box since we had an early morning flight which was nice since nothing at the airport was open. Good location as well!

Hotel Staff was polite and respectful. Italian restaurant food was excellent w good choices. Breakfast was a great deal.
Taking ng shoes off at the foyer is not a big deal.. but providing an alternative to bare feet would have been helpful!!
Wish they had efficient precise info and transport regarding Thaipussam festival. Staff gave plenty of info but nothing that could have helped us and other guests to witness it and take pictures!
Over all a good stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Campbell House. Staff were helpful and informative and the accommodation has charm and character. The location in central Georgetown suited us perfectly. We were pleased with the wide choice of restaurants nearby and that temples, museums, markets and other places of interest were within easy walking distance. Very nice breakfast and a comfortable bed added to the experience.

Lovely boutique hotel.
What a lovely hotel nothing was too much for them. Location was great, welcome was great, let us know what to visit and where to find food. Room was lovely everything you could need. They even left you something sweet each evening, all home made. Breakfast was sumptuous far too much! Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Excellent choice for a stylish hotel at the center.

While it's true that Campbell House costs slightly more than other boutique hotels, the level of service & attentiveness, room cleanliness and strategic location is unbeatable.
Ps: thank you Sasha and Vanessa for making my stay totally worth every cent. Hope to see you ladies again!

The walls are thin, so you get noise from the other rooms and the street.

Our family trip is Penang
We have booked 4 rooms for 2 nights for our family of 10, ranging from 7 to 75 years old. I only heard about good things from our family members once we done the trip and start discussing about the hotel we have chosen. Each room is well decorated with its own style and theme. So we are exciting to know what the color and them the other rooms are. The front desks are helpful and ready to help or give advice on anything you migt have. The location is perfect, especially if you plan to explore street art and want to try dim sum from one of the most popular resterants in town. Tai Tong is quite on the opposite. There was a bit of noise during the night since the floor is made from wood. But not much, you can still sleep well. The western style breakfast is also quite good, although you can try the morning street food just nearby the premise.

Highly recommended
I had a very delightful stay at Campbell House. Wonderful staff who are very accommodating to my needs, comfortable beds, good food within a short distance, no frills and little surprises that make me feel like home. We love the decor and the quietness of the neighbourhood. Only minor complaint is the creaky timber floor but it doesn't bother us much
Wani
Feels like staying at your quirky aunt's home!
Love the fact that the place makes you feel right at home with its heavy wooden furniture, and having to remove your shoes to go upstairs. Every aspect of the stay in the room itself was really great, no complaints.
One of the female staff, however, wasn't very competent in handling our request for bowls and cutlery when we bought food from outside. We told her we had two soups and a noodle dish, which she insisted the kitchen would plate for us. In the end, they mixed BOTH soups into one giant bowl (they were actually two different types, which we mentioned when we passed them to her), and that ruined our dinner completely.
We also called the reception once we were done to pick up our tray because there's little space in the room to leave it, and we found out much later why no one came up to collect it (in spite of her answering our call and saying she would) - she apparently left her shift without informing anyone of our request. So we went down to put the tray in the lobby ourselves.
She also seemed quite easily distracted as we wanted to leave our bags at the reception after check-out since our flight was at night, but I had a feeling she would forget, and just hung around the lobby till I saw her tag our belongings. She never did, until I had to remind her before we left the lobby to go about our day.

Excellent experience
Location was ideal. We could move around on foot easily. Breakfast was great. Love the customer experience given. Highly recommended accommodation in Georgetown

Great Boutique Hotel in the Heritage District
I stayed 5 nights in the Opium Room. This was a lovely comfortable corner room with Chinese style decor and a large light-filled bathroom. From the moment I arrived the staff were wonderful. I was given a full rundown of the attractions of Georgetown and surrounds as well as advice for dining and drinking in the local area. I was also given a full orientation of the hotel and the room and how everything worked. The great service extended to the Dining Room where the excellent a la carte breakfasts were served. Overall an excellent stay.

Comfortable boutique hotel in the center of town.
We stayed in the Malay Room, a large comfortable room. Quiet, relaxed atmosphere. Right in the center of town. Staff very helpful. Quite possibly the cleanest hotel I've ever stayed in. Breakfast in the hotel restaurant was wonderful - try the salmon eggs Benedict. Quirk: you have to take your shoes off before you can go upstairs! Not a problem although some foreigners may find it unusual. Another quirk: the Internet had a tendency to be a little irregular, but it wasn't a serious problem. If we're back in George Town we will definitely stay here again.

The hotel is beautifully restored and has retained its heritage features and atmosphere.
The stuff go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and have everything you need.
Nardya is a mine of knowledge on the local area, which we found so helpful.
Would not hesitate to go back and stay here.

Penang Jewel
Hotel is located in the heart of the old section of Georgetown. This was originally a colonial home that has been converted into a 12 room hotel with restaurant. The hotel and rooms contain original antique furniture, fixtures &rugs but have been updated with modern bathrooms and air conditioning. Luggage is hoisted to the upper floors via a rope and pulley. A western style breakfast was provided and was very substantial. The staff was the best part. They were extremely helpful and courteous. The only issue can be some noise from traffic.

Great
We appreciated how everyone went out of their way to make us feel at home as well as the suggestions on things to do. We had a great day at the Tropical Spice Gardens and despite the rain enjoyed walking around George Town to view all of the street art. The room was beyond expectations and the restaurant food was a welcome lunchtime treat after walking around the town.
