I stayed in this hotel for an entire week, not once did anyone come to clean the room. The wifi is terrible, it cuts off regularly and when it does work it's sub 10mbps. There was no hot water, it's lukewarm at best. I didn't mind most days since it's so hot out but it's rather uncomfortable when you come back after a long day out and have already cooled down to then take a cold shower. Then there's the shoe policy, you must take them off and store it in a locker on the ground floor before going to your room. The room itself is small AF, there's nowhere to put or hang up your clothes... I mean this literally, there's like a little space on the counter where the fridge sits. The only good thing about this hotel is the location.

Best place to get away from busy life. Staff is good but we did not get any engagement in the hotel so that’s why.

While it stated that it was close to Komtar, it was, but there’s nothing much worth seeing or doing there unless you have little kids. Otherwise, this hotel is far from restaurants unless you want to eat all the time at the street vendors. There are also no bars unless you go to one of the nice high rise hotels. So the location is not really that great.

Tres bien situé
Le personnel est aidant et accomodant. Chambre petite et fonctionnelle près du secteur touristique et de la station de bus. Seul bémol, un nouveau regroupement de street food faisait ces debuts à l'arrière du bâtiment. C'était a ce moment peu achalandé.
La fenêtre de notre chambre donnait sur le coté donc peu dérangeant. La musique jouait jusqu'à max minuit.

Didn’t stay
Although we booked this hotel, we didn’t’t end up staying. We found the room much too small, plus there was no wardrobe, just a rail above the desk (and kettle). We didn’t know you had to leave your shoes in the lobby before booking. The roadworks outside (although temporary) were the last straw so we stayed elsewhere. The receptionist was great about it, explaining that it’s more a backpacker’s place, which we are not. The receptionist was great and suggested we claimed a refund, so fair enough to the staff on-site.

The hotel is well located and at walking distance of main attractions. Also, very close to the bus station. But there is a bar next to it with live (and loud) music until late at night every night. Rooms with balcony face straight to the bar. Not recommendable for people that want to sleep early.

Love this place!
Loved staying here! The hotel has a beautiful aesthetic and they stick to it - from the outside to everything inside - it’s gorgeous even though it’s a bit on the small side. Perfect for solo/duo travelers. Even better if you’re the kind that enjoys music because right next door is the “hideaway” area (which our room’s balcony actually opened out to) which is like an open air area with food and drink vendors, with music every night. There are also loads of shops, great restaurants, cafes and even the mall is quite nearby. Overall, i have absolutely no complaints and having to store your slippers before going up to your room is a small price to pay for how clean the place is because of it

The awkward moment was when we ask to change our shoe n carry our shoe back into our room, each time when u going out or coming back to our room. Not counter service after 8pm, when we suddenly feel to request for extra pillow time we wanna sleep. Sink so small. N we get parking coupons

White mansion is an excellent place to stay for a trip to Penang. The rooms are finished to a very high standard and the front desk team are very helpful. It is in a good location and we would stay here again in the future.
