St. Giles Wembley Penang

Khách sạn tuyệt vời. Thật thoải mái và vị trí thật tuyệt vời! Chỉ có vấn đề nhỏ là điều hòa trong phòng tôi không lạnh n*** cả vào ban đêm và đầu vòi sen bị rò rỉ. Bữa sáng tươm tất, đầy đủ và một số món ăn được luân chuyển. Nhưng không có khiếu nại lớn.

For a 4-star hotel, the room interior and amenities don’t really look like a 4-star hotel. But the price and location are quite reasonable. The bed is comfortable, the hotel breakfast is very nice, and the service is good.

St Giles Wembly is a great hotel to stay in. I stayed for 3 nights and it felt like home. Sheets and bed were soft and comfortable, floor and furnishing were kept clean after housekeeping cleaned, and the lifts come really quickly. I also loved how the front desk and the staffs were always very welcoming and warm, making every interaction like speaking to a friend. While the hotel looked old, furnishings are very well maintained. For instance, the ventilation in the toilet was so good that the floor dries after a few hours. My only gripe is that while the water pressure is strong, the hot water doesn't come immediately, instead it takes a good 5 mins of running water before I get some form of warm / lukewarm water. The waiting time does get longer after midnight, where the water is just ice cold. Weirdly, the bath tub water gets warm faster than the shower? Which was kind of weird. I also had the opportunity to try the breakfast buffet. While I saw plenty of reviews commending that the breakfast is good, I believe it was sufficient for a local taste, and provided enough quantity. However, the buffet setup was quite cramp and unevenly spaced. The hotel also hosts a bar on the roof, which had a nice view of the city. I ordered a Guinness Stout and got the server to pour for me. I ended up getting a flat stout 🫠🫠🫠. Nevertheless, my stay at St Giles has been great, and I would love to return in the near future.
