My expectations were surpassed in every way, they were incredibly personalized, had a lovely interior, and provided excellent service. The neighborhood was pleasant, with charming cafes and coffee shops nearby. They served a warm welcome drink and coconut cookies. The turndown service was excellent, and the bathroom was beautifully prepared.

The hotel is amazing, and the staff is even better. They made our stay very personal, and they even spent time talking to us and making recommendations. We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is also very convenient, you can walk everywhere. The room was very well set up, and the bathroom was our favorite.

This modern boutique hotel, 88 arménien, is located in the center of penang. Their rooms are excellent! They also have a restaurant and bar named copper 88. They serve delicious cocktails and have a modern dinner menu with local ingredients. Its definitely worth it.

Our stay was fantastic. The level of service and quality is comparable to that of any major luxury 5 hotel, and it may be even better because being a boutique is more personalized. The staff was extremely helpful and kind. Everything was perfect, including the lovely room, bath butler service with speciality tea and chocolates, daily local snacks in the room, turndown service, aesop toiletries, and advice on what to do in penang. Breakfast was delicious, changed daily, and even tailored to one of us who are lactose intolerant. Thank you very much!.

This hotel is absolutely fantastic. It couldnt be in a better location, right in the middle of everything you want to do in Georgetown. It was very convenient to be able to swing by and put down packages, or simply pop back to the room to freshen up or take a quick break from the heat of the afternoon. Absolutely stunning interiors with a bathroom to die for. I particularly enjoyed taking a nighttime bath, leaving the windows open and listening to the sounds of the city below. The staff are professional, capable, and kind. They go above and beyond for any needs or requests. A gem of a hotel! If i returned to penang, i would definitely stay here again.

Overall, it received a score of 10 out of 10. While we waited for checkin to be finished, we were given local made kombucha and tiny cookies when we arrived. All of our unique demands were also met, and they provided customized breakfasts with daily seasonal fruit platters, western or asian breakfast options, delightful afternoon teas, and therapeutic bath salts to relax. Minibars are all free, sourced from ethically responsible local vendors, and replenished daily. The room is wellequipped with an ipad, a sonos speaker, and a nespresso machine. Every evening, after a long day of exploring the city, we were welcomed with a small jar of carefully curated cookies from small home bakers and a pot of hot tea to help us transition to a calm mood. The staff provides us with local food preferences and helpful tips to plan our daily activities. They are always friendly and welcoming, making visitors feel at ease and comfortable.

We stayed in the rodin room for 7 nights and were impressed from the moment we arrived. The hotel itself is located in the historic center of George town, making it perfect for sightseeing and walking around the city. The building is a renovated heritage site with only six rooms. Ours was huge, beautifully lit and had a spacious bathroom with a full size bath. The service was impeccable - especially from sky, the bar manager - and we enjoyed having breakfast every day in the hotel restaurant. The owner and staff clearly thought about every detail. A most memorable experience.

I stayed at the Pearson room. The location is good because it is on the street of armenia. Walkable to chew jetty and mural art places. The room is great, albeit a bit small, but acceptable. However, the breakfast is not really my cup of tea. But it doesnt matter because there are many good food in penang. Will definitely be back!.

The hotel is known as 88 armenian, while the restaurant and bar are known as copper bar, one of the best hotels in penang.

I stayed at the arabian 88 for a couple of days. The hotel is in a great location. The room i stayed in was perfect for me and my 2 children. It was very clean, beautiful and the bathroom had a large bathtub with aesop shower gel, shampoo and more. Every night before we entered the room, there will be a special note and childhood treats which we are looking forward to. The staff were very friendly, nice and professional which up to a 5 star standard or maybe even better. We had a great stay. Thank you so much for the great hospitality.
