    We had a fantastic stay at Magpie Residence in George Town. the location was ideal, situated on the edge of the UNESCO zone, and offered a peaceful and quiet atmosphere. the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, making our experience even more enjoyable. Our room was clean, functional, and surprisingly spacious. the bathroom exceeded our expectations with its separate shower space. the amenities provided, such as air conditioning, a fan, and a TV, added to our comfort. We appreciated the complimentary coffee and tea, as well as the ample seating options in the lobby and patio. the hotel's convenient location allowed us to easily explore the surrounding area, including the nearby restaurants, cafes, and street vendors. Cons: Nothing all excellent! 👌🏼.

    As a business traveler attending a conference, I found Magpie Residence to be the perfect choice. The hotel's facilities and services cater to both business travelers and tourists alike. The location was ideal, just a short walk away from the bustling city center. The staff were friendly and accommodating, ensuring a comfortable stay.

    The only service I missed for my work was a dedicated business center with printing and copying facilities.

    Amazing Staff and Personalized Service

    During our stay at Magpie Residence, we were impressed with the level of service provided by the staff. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. One specific instance that stood out was when we arrived early and our room was not yet ready. Instead of making us wait, the staff allowed us to hang around and even offered us free coffee while we waited. They also took the time to provide us with recommendations on where to eat and what attractions not to miss. Their warmth and attentiveness truly made our stay memorable.

    We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The hotel is located on a quiet street just a few minutes walk from the center of the old town. The location is perfect for exploring the historic UNESCO listed old town and is close to a lovely restaurant called What the Duck. The cleanliness of the hotel was impressive and the room was spacious and comfortable. The staff were friendly and always smiling, providing excellent service.

    Nothing to complain about at all.

    I thoroughly enjoyed cycling around and admiring the view from the terrace. Oh, and the airport transfers were just divine. Such a treat to have a front desk for my precious luggage, darling.

    Who needs a lift when you can get some exercise using the stairs? So quaint.
