To start with I would like to say that I would visit Penang again just so I could stay here, it was that good. Check in went very smoothly and as we arrived at lunch time we were given a map with recommendations of where to go for lunch, and they were spot on with the Indian being one of... More

This hotel certainly deserves all the rave reviews it receives. We spent 3 days in Penang, and stayed in the Indochine Room. The room was beautifully decorated, quiet and spacious, with very comfortable beds. The extra touches really added to my enjoyment of the stay - iced tea and plenty of water in the fridge, the coffee machine, the flowers... More

Deciding to just get away from busy Kuala Lumpur over the weekend, and to laze around and eat hawker food in Georgetown, I turn to my trusted Tripadvisor for advice! There you will find Campbell House rated No.1! Curious, I booked a night to just check Campbell House out! First and foremost, the location is just fabulous! It’s near everywhere.... More

We stayed 4 nights in this gorgeous place and loved every minute of it. The rooms are wonderful and the service a joy. My husband stubbed his toe (which I'm sure is not unusual in Georgetown) and 2 of the very sweet Philippino housemaids insisted they clean and bandage his little injury for him. We really enjoyed the breakfasts and... More

Just a charming unique hotel central to many of the tourist attractions in Georgetown. Fabulously located amongst the busy historic streets. If you enjoy walking and exploring the culture, this gem is perfect! The Sari Room on the first floor has a cute balcony overlooking the street life. Although on a busy corner, the windows are double glazed with thick... More

We made the mistake of spending only one night at this hotel and two at a resort in Batu Ferringhi on our recent short break in Georgetown. In hindsight, we should have taken a day trip to the "beach" and spent all three nights here in Campbell House. Service was faultless - from the initial overview of attractions the friendly... More

This was our second tie with Nardya's and her team, we loved visiting the first time, and even better the second... They remembered I drank decaf coffee and preferred hard pillows!

We stayed for 3 days at Campbell House, wondering if, like almost every former guest of this place, we would feel compelled to give it 5 stars. Without a single doubt, the answer is YES!!! LOCATION


 The hotel is located in the outer area of the Unesco protected part of Georgetown. It is at the corner of a busy street,... More

Everything about the Campbell House is laudable. The hotel interior and common areas have a old mansion, wooden, colonial feel, with high ceilings and stained glass windows. The rooms are decorated tastefully and everywhere you look in the hotel you'll find something special, interesting and meaningful. They are spacious, quiet, clean and very comfortable, with great expresso coffee facilities and... More

You will be treated so well here. The owners go out of their way to ensure your visit is so relaxing. The accommodation is top class - beds are incredibly comfortable - and the attention to detail like the coffee machine, little treats along with the lemon tea left in the fridge each day, the reading room with some great...
