Is Berjaya Hotel worth it?
A convenient mid-range city hotel inside the 1-Stop Midlands Park complex in Pulau Tikus, five minutes from Gurney Drive, its malls and the Pulau Tikus market. Best for shopping, family stays and a comfortable northern-suburbs base, less so if you want to be in the heritage core.

Mid-range hotel
Berjaya Penang Hotel trades old-town character for convenience: it is built into a shopping-and-entertainment complex in Pulau Tikus, five minutes from Gurney Drive, so the malls, the seafront and one of Penang's best wet markets are all on the doorstep.
Berjaya Penang Hotel is a mid-range city hotel on Jalan Burma in the Pulau Tikus area of George Town, built into the 1-Stop Midlands Park business and shopping complex. It sits about five minutes from the Gurney Drive seafront, with the Gurney Plaza and Gurney Paragon malls and the well-known Pulau Tikus market all close by, which makes it a convenient base for shopping, eating and the northern suburbs rather than the UNESCO heritage core (that is a 10 to 15 minute ride away). Rooms run from Standard and Superior up to Family Rooms, a Junior Suite and larger suites, so it suits everyone from solo business travellers to families. On site there is an outdoor swimming pool, a restaurant, a gym and meeting rooms, with car parking and free WiFi throughout; Penang International Airport is roughly a 30-minute drive.
