Anonymous UserLet me start with the location.
-a little bit far from the center, had to drive around 5-10 mins to reach nearest 7e. forget about the other attractions, it needs more than 30 mins from the hotel.
Staff.
-i dont know but i feel like not helpful enough. they could’ve done better for the so called “5 stars” hotel wannabe.
Cleanliness.
-well it was clean BUT! right when we entered the room we saw the notice of the charlie ants. we were so scared to touch the floor with bare foot as i lost count on how much we had seen and managed to kill the insects on our own!
Buffet.
-was ok, not the best. many verities to choose from. well at least they tried.
Facilities.
-they won this time. my only complaint was the insects on the floor and walls of the toilet.

ZuileThe hotel staff were incredibly dedicated and responsive to all our requests. The room was clean and tidy. The beach behind the hotel is a bit small, but it's shared with the neighboring hotels, so you can walk along it, and the scenery is still beautiful. However, the hotel's internal landscaping is fantastic. It's definitely worth another visit.

The hotel is about 40-50 minutes from the city center and roughly an hour from the airport. If you're not in a rush, public transport is an option. Arriving at Penang Airport at 7:30 AM, it was perfect to grab breakfast before checking into the hotel. We added an extra bed, which was quite low, like a camp bed. We asked if we could get another mattress, and they said they'd check but never got back to us, so we just let it go. For our 5:30 AM return flight, we pre-ordered a takeaway breakfast the day before. The balcony was very spacious with expansive views. The private beach was just okay, a bit rocky underfoot. The entertainment activities were a bit underwhelming; they said 10 minutes but we only got about 3 minutes of actual play. There were staff who spoke Chinese, so communication was no problem. There are no dining options right by the hotel, but there's a restaurant called 'Da Dong Seafood Restaurant' that's pretty good and offers great value for money. You might have to queue during peak hours, and getting a taxi back could incur a surcharge.

Guest UserExcellent! The hotel staff were incredibly friendly; especially the bespectacled gentleman at check-in, the lady at the lobby lounge bar, and the young man cleaning on the 6th floor – all were wonderfully welcoming. The sea-view room was fantastic, no obstructions as some online reviews mentioned, I had a perfect view of the sea. I even encountered a lizard by the pool, probably trying to cool off from the heat!

PetrelHad a fantastic stay! The room was spacious and very comfortable. The free parking was a huge bonus. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Unlike other hotels that offer a welcome drink, Sho Hotel provides a complimentary coffee/tea/orange juice every single day. If you stay for several days, you get several drinks – it's such a thoughtful touch! I'd redeem mine every morning before heading out, and the staff would put it in a to-go cup for me to take with me. Absolutely delightful! ❤️
Sho Hotel will definitely be my first choice next time I visit Penang!

Craig50This hotel offers incredible value for money! For 1200 RMB, I got a room with a sea view balcony and a spacious shower – absolutely perfect 💯. It's super close to the Blue Mansion; you can just exit the heritage wing lobby, cross the street where there's a HeyTea and a bar street, and then cross another street near a gas station, and you'll be right at the Blue Mansion and the Red Garden food market. Many famous people have stayed here, and it beautifully blends history with modern touches, all while having that lovely Nanyang resort vibe. I'll definitely be staying here again on my next trip to Penang!

Craig50Huge thanks to the lovely Chinese lady at the front desk for upgrading me to a garden-wing sea-view suite free of charge! I got to enjoy a private, huge balcony and a separate living and dining room, which was absolutely fantastic. The hotel's exterior is great, but the rooms are a bit dated. In the evening, I went to Ferringhi to watch the sunset, then took a taxi to Da Dong Seafood Restaurant for dinner. The sea there is quite muddy and sandy, so the water is generally murky. You have to walk to the Shangri-La Golden Sands next door to find a very small stretch of beach. For a room rate of 3000 yuan a night, the breakfast was pretty mediocre. In comparison, the E&O Hotel in Penang offers much better value for money.

Anonymous UserWe had a pleasant stay although its just for a night. The downside is the time delay during check in which approximately around 10-20 minutes of waiting since our room has not completely prepared. It is a bit frustrating since we come at 3.30pm which 30 minutes late of the standard check-in time. However, the hotel had prepared extra bed (FOC) which we believe is a nice gesture from them to compensate the bad experience.
The room is spacious and got terrace with really nice beach view. The breakfast spread is full of variety and just nice.

Anonymous UserPositive -have requested for a connecting room, and hotel arranged the connecting room for us.
The buffer restaurant got a nice view, but not our room,
Negative - we were allocated the room could see the opposite building closely, means other buildings could see us as well. No privacy at all.
Rooms getting a bit dated
The rubbish bin not clean up every day
We haven't been notified there was a short renovation upstairs in the afternoon, we were taking rest at the hotel by that time.
The worse is after we come back from dinner, the light at the corridor and in our room all dark. This is the first time I experienced all night off in my hotel room. The manager told me that because we switched off the main switch, and made both rooms light off. Do you think it is possible for us even turn off the corridor light and another room night? In fact, we never turn off the light.
