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 💕

It's like a whole resort in one building. We booked this last minute and were surprised how much we loved it. Apartment is very big with plenty of space and a nice view of city at night. Beds were comfy, clean with good air con & fans. The TV area was good and finally a comfy couch for a movie night. There were even pods to wash our clothes that dried easily in the heat overnight. Everything you could need in the kitchen too. The floor that has the pool etc is amazing. 1 large but quieter pool in the shade by the gym but the opposite side as a second infinity pool that's very beautiful with a view of the sea. There is a coffee, smoothie and snack vending as well as a little takeaway vending machine for noodles and dumplings etc. You could stay here all day without needing to leave. We did pop in the roof to look at the views and have a peak. Was absolutely deserted and peaceful. We can't really comment on the lifts. We travelled during Ramadan which is apparently a super quiet time for travel. Lifts were fine for us but no idea about the rest of the year. (I only have a picture of one of the second bedroom. My sister stayed in the master en suite which was bigger and a bit nicer than my picture)

Everything was fantastic! The communal kitchen was spotless, and the entire house was impeccably clean. Plus, staying in a historic building added a unique charm and character to the experience.

Stayed at 2 Aayu properties while I was in Penang and good experience at both largely due to the on-site staff. The team are super responsive and full of good information about the local area. The two places I stayed in were refurbished heritage buildings so the sound insulation is not perfect but if you have respectful guests around you then it’s fine. The rooms I chose weren’t huge but they didn’t claim to be and the shared spaces are well maintained and good spots to chill.
