G Hotel Penang, Malaysia


Review

Right next to Gurney Plaza Mall, this hotel is a convenient place to stay. It's a short taxi or bus ride to the beach at Batu Ferringi or Georgetown. I didn't eat at the restaurant much, but breakfast was ok. A variety if western and local dishes. The staff was very helpful and our room was clean. We stayed in an executive suite (we were upgraded from the room I booked) and it was very nice. The executive lounge is a nice place to relax at the end of the day as well.

A2 Resort Phuket 



Review

We very much enjoyed our stay at the A2 Hotel & Resort. The facility was very nice, as was, the hotel staff. The pool access rooms are very nice. It was enjoyable to view the pool and water feature from the patio. Without having a car, taxi was the only means of transportation. The bypass road is very busy. It was not possible to walk to shopping other than to a 7 - 11 store. There is an ATM fairly close. The restaurant food was good and simple. Some buffet items were very spicy,
