Pearl View Hotel offers a simple and pleasant stay, with normal cleanliness standards. The surrounding area is convenient, with nearby food stalls that offer easy dining options. There’s nothing particularly surprising about the hotel, but it provides an average experience at a reasonable price. Perfect for those looking for a no-frills, budget-friendly place to stay.

Our family had a very comfortable and cozy stay. The hotel's location is highly convenient, with easy access to Butterworth, Bukit Mertajam, and Penang Island. The free parking was a plus.
Although we encountered a minor incident, the operation manager was on duty and promptly addressed the issue. Thanks to Trip.com for helping resolve the matter.
However, the lift in the Fajar Floor building needs upgrading, as the doors close too quickly (within 2-3 seconds), causing them to hit me multiple times. The air conditioning was cool and refreshing, making our stay pleasant.
Compared to other nearby hotels, this one is highly recommended for its cleanliness and overall experience. However, I would suggest more frequent cleaning of the floor carpets for child safety, as children tend to crawl and play on the floor.
Last but not least, the fire escape door should be checked to ensure it is accessible for safety reasons.
Response from Property: Thank you for choosing to stay with us during your visit to Penang and for your wonderful review. We truly appreciate it, and we will keep striving to provide the best experience possible. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Very lousy hotel in Prai. The room very very smelly. The bedsheet very very smelly too. The carpet full of bacteria & smelly too. Pillow smelly. Not provide toothbrush or need to get it in lobby. Tissue given not plastic, very unhygienic. Very small TV on the wall

The hotel is big and have plenty of parking. However, the room is a bit old and furniture is old fashioned

The hotel is good despite quite an old hotel itself. My stay was comfortable. Room is clean, but aircond is quite cold for me because the temperature cannot be adjust

Eventhough this hotel are old but the rooms still OK to stay. Clean and tv channels are clear. Comes with complimentary parking as well. Walking distance to many convenience store and restaurants or food stalls.
