Amari Hotel

Amari SPICE Penang is a big, modern upscale hotel in Bayan Lepas, on the southern side of the island near the airport and Queensbay Mall. Its defining feature is its address: it is plugged straight into the SPICE Convention Centre and Arena, which makes it Penang's natural choice for conferences, exhibitions and arena events, backed by a 25-metre saltwater pool, four restaurants and bars, and a spa.

Amari SPICE Penang (listed here as Amari Hotel) is a 453-room upscale hotel at 2 Persiaran Mahsuri, Bayan Lepas (11900), in the southern business district of Penang island. It is directly connected to the SPICE Convention Centre and SPICE Arena — a hybrid solar-powered MICE complex — which makes it a leading base for conferences, trade shows and arena concerts, with meeting spaces seating up to around 360. Rooms span six categories — Deluxe, Premier, Executive, Executive Deluxe, One Bedroom Suite and the Amari Suite — and feature the brand's signature expansive windows, smart TVs, wireless soundbars, fast WiFi and generous workspaces. Facilities include a 25-metre saltwater swimming pool, the Breeze Spa, a FIT fitness centre, and the Club Tiffin executive lounge on the 25th floor for executive rooms and suites. Dining runs across four outlets: Amaya Food Gallery, Amaya Bar, Cascade and the Aqua Bar. There is valet and basement parking with disabled bays and EV charging. The location is around 5 km from Penang International Airport with Queensbay Mall close by, and it is geared to business, MICE and airport-side stays rather than to a heritage George Town base — the old town is roughly a 20 to 30 minute drive north.
