About Seven Terraces Hotel

Built-in the late 19th century, Seven Terraces was a contiguous row of Anglo-Chinese terrace houses located just behind the Goddess of Mercy Temple. The row of houses today is a sterling splendid example of adaptive reuse of heritage buildings that were of low density and low impact.

Historically, these houses were a redevelopment of the original Lee Kongsi building circa 1893, in a period when George Town's Kelly maps were just completed. The row was redeveloped by Koe Guan, the holding company of local millionaire and governor of southern Thailand, Khaw Sim Bee.

This row was the first residential and commercial expansion by Koe Guan outside of the original settlement that bordered Pitt Street.

Houses built by local property developers along Stewart Lane and Muntri Street at the end of the 19th century were the earliest examples of mass housing that were taller, more imposing and with significantly higher ceilings as compared to shophouses built in other parts of George Town earlier in that century.

The staff are very helpful and make you feel welcome from the moment you arrive, especially front desk. Pool area is a very nice place to chill out after a day of exploring. They even serve a lovely afternoon tea snack by the pool. The room was lovely, with so much room to move and great central spot for walking everywhere in George Town.

Heritage luxury

Seven Terraces is a masterstroke of heritage luxury in George Town, stitching together seven grand Anglo-Chinese terraces into a serene, deeply atmospheric hideaway. Antique Peranakan furnishings, soaring ceilings, and quietly attentive service create a sense of living history without feeling staged, while Kebaya, its lauded restaurant, fuses Nyonya flavours with cosmopolitan flair. Discreetly tucked away yet steps from Penang’s vibrant lanes, this is a hotel that lets the past breathe—sumptuous, storied, and effortlessly elegant.

A Home Away From Home

Seven Terraces exceeded my expectations in every way. I was amazed by how well the old mansion has been preserved—it felt like living in a museum. The antiques were in exceptional condition, adding to the charm of the place. From the moment we stepped into the lobby, the service was impeccable. The staff knew who to expect and promptly checked on our stay and departure, showing genuine care and concern. Their hospitality was truly top-notch. My only regret is not staying longer than a day. Seven Terraces is definitely a place that feels like home.

A good choice for Georgetown

We had a lovely stay and recommend this property in Penang. Easy to walk to many parts of Georgetown and Grab drivers seem to know it too.

If you plan to visit the restaurant be sure to book in advance. We did not and they were closed one night and already booked for the other when we arrived.

This is a very beautiful heritage hotel and I am impressed by the restoration. The rooms are so spacious and well furnished and thus very comfortable. We like the personal touch of the staff and are grateful for the restaurant recommendations near the hotel. Location-wise, it’s a short drive from many tourist attractions and nice eateries. So overall I would highly recommend this very gorgeous hotel for tourists who like a more unique culturally rich experience.

A Jewel

this is a jewel of a place to stay and Chester and Wendy make you feel immediately welcome. They are very knowledgeable and helpful. The dinner is special so don't eat that day and book a table! Lots of flavors and dishes. The breakfast is a calm civilized way to start the day; include that in your stay. if you are worried about the stairs up to the tv, there is not much on anyway, so there is no need to go up there and the bed/bath area is huge.
very convenient to all the sights within the old town area and yet secluded enough so that you can relax at the pool from all that you have experienced outside the compound.

Would recommend

Fabulous 4 night stay in the Argus Apartment. Very quiet. Extremely huge apartment - totally perfect for the 3 of us. Loved all the decor in keeping with its peranakan theme. Enjoyed the afternoon teas by the pool . Didn’t actually use the poi but it looked lovely. Staff were so friendly and helpful at all times . Ate at Lenaka restaurant one evening - what a delicious meal. Totally recommend this place and would come back here .

Unique restored hotel with good amenities and where the staff are very friendly and provided us with an excellent service. Refreshingly different to the modern hotels where the rooms all appear to look the same regardless of where you are in the world

Surprisedly stingy when it comes to towels

A really beautiful property with a very Peranakan feel. Gorgeous for photos and for wedding photos, but details leave much to be desired. No slippers were supplied until asked. Hand and face towels are not provided by default, and has to be asked for every day. Breakfast and afternoon tea are good, but nothing to write home about. Free drinks in the mini-bar are a nice touch and surprisingly generous given the ask-for-towels-everyday situation. Location is slightly off the main Street but can still be quite loud on the weekends, although the design of the room makes it hard to hear. Overall, great stay for a regular hotel, but average for a luxury hotel.

This hotel boutique was such a special and unique property. It does have a flavour of the mix of Chinese, Indo, Malay and British cultures.
The hotel has 28 suites so every guest gets special attention. I will definetely come back to this place as it s a gem with its wonderful food and a la carte breakfast menu ! The bedroom suite are on two floor and very spacious !

The property was gorgeous, staff was absolutely wonderful and outstanding, room was amazing (one of our a/c needed a different remote but it was fine), breakfast was a nice selection of Malay and western choices, on our last night, they brought us some muesli and fruit for our fridge for the next morning as we needed to check out before breakfast service began, which was really thoughtful and appreciated as we had not asked for this. Location of the property was great for walking around Gerorge Town. We truly enjoyed our stay!

Very nice hotel (with a few 'buts')

Very nice hotel in a great location. Everything was perfect, or next to it, except perhaps for the breakfast (which is 'à la carte' instead of a buffet), the apparent 'indifference' (although you could of course also say 'authenticity' : ) of some of the staff, and the 'complimentary afternoon tea', which was meager to say the least. Better not to offer any such 'freebies' at all. Still, we would go back for another stay..

Amazing old town houses with beautiful antiques. Treated very well. Attentive staff. Central location. A little hard to find but more secure that way. Good food. Classic bar. Small but lovely tea. Small but lovely pool. Had suite #3 with 2 floors, 2 bathrooms, balcony. Huge with juice and water and fridge and hairdryer. Shower open so a little odd. Helpful with directions and calling cabs. Great place to relax in crazy, dirty, wonderful Penang. Used a white noise machine to sleep so not sure how noisy at night. A little hard to control a/c level and stairs could be tricky for some. Friends stayed at E and O. Question of whether you want strictly modern or something older but well done with local flavor.

One word sums up this boutique hotel: exquisite.
What comes through clearly is the love and attention to detail that was put into its renovation and refurbishment, to keep everything as authentic and as elegantas possible.

Beautiful hotel. Right in the middle of George Town. Night desk manager was not very friendly - not the best greeting to start the trip. There are lots of shallow stairs, corners, and ledges in the room. Not good for clumsy people like us. The front desk staff in the morning were lovely - maybe our stay would have been different if we had dealt with them.

First visit to George Town and Seven Terraces

This was truly a memorable stay. It started right from check in with one of the nicest front desk person I have met named Jason. He was very friendly, informative and knowledgeable and checked us in smoothly before taking us up to our room and explaining all the amenities and features. Our room was very spacious as was the bathroom. We didn't use the upstairs lounge but that was also nicely appointed. The parking in just outside the hotel and is in the shade all day. The afternoon year with little nibbles was tasty. The pleasant surprise was the breakfast we had the next morning. I highly recommend trying their versions of Nasi Lemak and roti canai. Truly nice meals. Only regrets were our stay was only for one night and declining an umbrella to use when walking around in the hot sun. You may very well need it if you walked most places like us in the heat.

Different in a good way

Distinctive heritage property. Beautiful building, well equipped and individually furnished rooms. Not for you if you like all service places but great for a few days if you like something different.

As many have said, try to get a room the Argus not the Stewart side for noise reasons. The hotel helpfully moved me after one night but better to ask in advance!

Terrific hotel in Penang. Beautifully refurbished, with exquisite Peranakan furnishings, large bedroom with separate bath and upstairs living room. Near all of the landmarks and good food in Georgetown,. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Nancy gave us great tips for local food places and touring highlights. Recommend this very highly...especially for the very reasonable room prices.

Excellent hotel in terms of room, location and facilities. Very friendly staff imparting good local knowledge of restaurants and things to see.
Breakfast very tasty - went for the barbecue pork buns from local dim sum restaurant, and very impressive wireframe mural in the inner courtyard.
One small complaint which stops me giving top marks. Our room was on a corner next to a pop-up bar which finally closed down around 1am. Very noisy until then and some of the clientele hung around until after 3am before making a very noisy departure.
Not the hotel’s fault but avoid suite 1 if you are a light sleeper like me.

A very special small hotel located in the heart of Georgetown heritage area. A row of detelict terraces has been renovated and transformed to make a wonderful modern hotel which retains the design and feel of the original. Huge spacious rooms, a wonderful restaurant, Kebaya, which continues the transformative theme through a menu of traditional dishes given a modern twist. Complementary soft drinks and water as well as the usual refreshments in the room and complimentary afternoon tea with local khuay cakes. Staff provided outstanding service. Nurul at reception was particularly kind and went out of her way to ensure we had a memorable stay.

Great experience at the Seven Terraces

Stayed 2 nights at the Seven Terraces and it was a great experience.
Check-in went smooth and fast. Rooms were spacious, clean, well decorated in a nonya style and bed was comfortable.
There is a breakfast menu to pick from, the options I tried were all very nicely done.
Location is great, the heritage areas are within walking distance (10-15mins walk to most attractions and local food places).
I accidentally broke one of the nice porcelain containers in the bathroom, but the hotel did not charge me for it.

Beautiful building but no comforts

No wifi, dismal facilities, no hahal menu offerings with no replacement offered. There was also a conference on during our stay and with little decent sound-proofing they did distrupt our sleep, as did the noise from the busy street outside. The pool was very small with floating detritus.

Not for me I'm afraid...

A true Heritage Hotel. Attentive staff

We read the reviews before booking this lovely hotel in the heart Georgetown. Lovely big room with very high ceiling and separate living area with another bed. The main bed and the second bed both are four poster beds.


Very attentive staff from check in to check out the staff looked after us well.
Special Mention the hospitable Miss Wendy she was a wonderful and caring person took all steps to make our stay comfortable. When we checked out we told her about out late flight. She allowed us to use the facilities and even offered the afternoon tea before we go on the taxi to the airport. Subha at the reception was knowledgable she gave us a quick overview of what to see and where to eat. She booked our van back to the airport and printed our boarding passes

All the room service staff were very responsive and professional. Turn down service was offered several times.

Complimentary soft drinks and water were replaced every day. The rain shower was amazing. The decor was very pleasing.

There were many varieties for breakfast which was served at the beautifully decorated Library

Excellent place to stay to explore Georgetown
