Asian antiques, colonial seating areas, swimming pool for children
The cramped room lacked storage options for clothes, making unpacking impossible!!! Limited TV channels restrict entertainment choices, and the shower's lukewarm water is disappointing!!!

Colonial decor captivates with antique furniture and character. Ideal for leisurely explorations with multiple nearby local eateries, especially Nasi Kandar options.
The old building presents several quirks—street noise disrupts sleep, room conditions vary from dusty to uncomfortably small, and some maintenance issues like lukewarm showers diminish the experience. There's also a lack of soundproofing, which makes for a less private stay with all the bustling outside.

The hotel boasts a stunningly beautiful design, blending modern luxury with local heritage, which added to our overall experience.
We encountered frequent noise disruptions from outside, particularly from street activities, which made it hard to get a restful sleep.

Staying at Museum Hotel felt like a step into history. The antique furniture in the Art Decor Suite fascinated me. Two showers and two toilets made it perfect for my family. The breakfast menu included delightful options, especially the eggs benedict, which tasted fantastic. The pool wasn’t available since I had expected to enjoy it. The staff were accommodating, but the lack of air conditioning in public areas felt stifling at times. A notification about the pool being unavailable was not provided until my arrival. I enjoyed wandering through the brightly decorated historic streets nearby, and the quiet vibe at night was a pleasant contrast to the busy daytime. I wish the hotel had been more transparent about its facilities ahead of time.

Staying here, me heart was won over by the lovely, friendly staff who made us feel right at home. The rooftop terrace in the evening? Absolutely magical, watchin' the Penang storms roll in. But, the wifi? Bit dodgy, could do with a boost!

The historical ambiance with unique colonial features truly enhances the stay, complemented by a vibrant art collection. The breakfast had exceptional options, particularly the appetisers. the lack of storage space in the room made it challenging to unpack comfortably. the elevator was inopportune, requiring stairs for access to some amenities, which could be difficult for those with mobility issues. While the staff were attentive, the intermittent Wi-Fi connectivity was a drawback.

Staying at Museum felt like a delightful jaunt into history. The antique vibe of the Baifu Single Room without View was charming, especially with the vintage light/fan buttons that added character. The rooftop chill area provided a lovely spot to unwind and enjoy the evening city view.

A Memorable Stay with Charming Local Flavors
Our two-night getaway was lovely! The double-room's classic decor added to the charm, while the staff's warmth made us feel welcome. We loved walking 10 minutes to enjoy coffee at Mugshot. A tip, order breakfast the night before. it keeps things organized. Unique experience overall!
