If you're looking for a centrally located stay in Penang with space, comfort, and access to everything you need; Hutton Central Hotel is a solid pick.
🛏️ The Room
One of the first things that struck me was how spacious the room was for just two people! It’s rare to find hotel rooms in this area that feel this open and comfortable. You won’t feel cramped there’s enough space to move around, unpack, and actually relax.
🔧 Facilities & Comfort The room was well-equipped with all the basic facilities you’d expect everything from a mini fridge to hot water, working air-conditioning, and good Wi-Fi. The place was clean, well-maintained, and even the cleaning staff were friendly and helpful, which made the stay feel even more pleasant.
📍 Location, Location, Location
This hotel’s location is a major win.
It’s right in the heart of the action you can walk to local food spots, cafes, and even shopping areas.
Whether you're craving char kuey teow, looking for a late-night dessert spot, or just want to explore George Town on foot, this location makes it super convenient.
🔇 Heads-Up: Noise If there’s one downside, it’s that the rooms facing the main road can be noisy, especially at night. So if you’re a light sleeper, this could be a bit of an issue. Bring earplugs or request a room further inside if available.
✅ Final Thoughts
Overall, I really enjoyed my stay here. I only wished I had more days to enjoy the space and explore more of what was nearby. It’s definitely great value for money, and I’d return again maybe with noise-cancelling earplugs next time!

Read moreI was looking for accommodation that is near to the Heritage area and found this hotel. The location is very good. You are almost at the central of many things. Going to Penang is about enjoying their food and within 500m you can get so many choices from local, fusion and international.||You get everything for a home, fully equipped kitchen except for a diswasher. An induction hob and a microwave is provided complete with pot and pans. So if you wish to cook, just go to nearest market and buy the ingredients. There is a two door refrigerator and not the usual mini bar fridge. No need to go to laundry, they give a washing machine in the unit. Super convenient if you plan to stay longer.||The unit is spacious for a family of four but there is only one room with queen bed. So the kids can sleep with extra mattress or at the couch. Wifi is present but not as fast but good enough for you to browse and read email.||One issue that will be a challenge is parking space. The hotel is a converted shoplot next to a busy street, so the authority has removed the parking in order to widen the road. You can go and park by the road side at the smaller street. A bit problem during day time but not really an issue after 7pm. If you are not driving, then no issue at all. ||Overall, it is a good place and...
Read moreThe worst welcome provided as a hotel service provider. It was not stated during my booking that there will be no staff for check in and we will need to inform 30 minute earlier before arrival.
Booked the place for business travelling. After a long tiring day arriving at the hotel, took me forever to find the entrance. Decided to call the hotel to be informed no check in staff the reason for the counter door is closed. They also informed have emailed me pertaining this, upon checking email was send 11.14 am on my check in date pertaining this matter. Waited around 30 minute for the staff to arrive, shocked me further when the staff said "lets go into your room to get the check in done". I was like, this is not the right service and why can't you check in at the counter? The staff informed he doesn't have the key and this is a norm.
For me just dnt call ur self a hotel when you a run a business like airbnb, there a reason busines travelling guys like us book a hotel. Hotel has a meaning for its name, please dnt misinterpreted and provide a wrong service.
Other then that the room was good and...
