Average rating:

The famous rows of Batu Feringgi night market stalls where your bargaining skills will be tested start right outside the hotel's front doors and watersports are available right on the beach, essentially the backyard of this well-situated property.

The Holiday Inn Resort Penang is located just 30 minutes from Georgetown and 45 minutes from the Bayan Lepas International Airport.

Indulge in a Malay-style Massage in the outdoor pavilion or maybe a foot reflexology treatment by the beach.

If you can afford the small stack of extra funds, get an ocean-facing room in the low-rise portion of the hotel rather than a room in the tower, it's well worth the slight increase in cost.

Business services available are a courier service, fax, printer, e-mail and internet. All rooms include air conditioning with individual temperature controls, remote control TV with satellite channels, international direct dial telephone, in-room safe, hairdryer and minibar on request.
