Situated in George Town, 2.4 km from Northam Beach and 600 metres from 1st Avenue Penang, Melayu Villa by Aayu - 8 mins walk to Armenian St features accommodation with free WiFi, air conditioning, a garden and a shared lounge. The property features inner courtyard and quiet street views, and is less than 1 km from Rainbow Skywalk at Komtar. The guest house has family rooms. What a lovely place to stay in Penang. I absolutely loved the architecture - it has a charming cultural vibe, right in the middle of George Town where you can walk to everything. So many nice restaurants around too (but if you're indecisive like me, just message them on WhatsApp, they reply instantly, even to my very random questions... thank you for your patience!). The staff are genuinely the sweetest. Ashan greeted us on the first day with such warmth, and everyone we met was kind, generous, and just really good people. One even showed my dad how to play a local board game - such a sweet moment ❤️✌️ I feel bad I didn’t ask for all your names. I really should have. But to the whole team, thank you so much for making our stay so easy and memorable. You made Penang feel extra special 💕

Situated in George Town, 2.4 km from Northam Beach, Aayu Beach St - George Town Penang features air-conditioned accommodation and a shared lounge. The property is set 1.6 km from Penang Times Square, 8.1 km from Straits Quay and 8.5 km from Penang Botanic Gardens. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, and luggage storage for guests. We stayed at 2 different Aayu locations while in Penang and this one was our favorite! It's a bit more quiet near Beach Street, which we enjoyed. The location was really good, near to the jetties and food markets. Wi-Fi was good, the bed was comfortable, and the room had plenty of space. There were plenty of bathrooms around, filtered water in the kitchen, and a nice area to hang out in. They also send you some great recommendations for food and sights to see upon arrival.
