Vintage House

George Town

We stayed 10 days at the Vintage House and really enjoyed every day.

The host Cheah is doing an outstanding job. She is extremely friendly and well informed about sightseeing spots, restaurants (+affordable bars) and everything you need to know.

The accomodation itself is basic but very clean and offers enough space if you need to work remote. Bathrooms / showers are good. A washing machine is available as well. The common kitchen is basically equipped, enough to prepare snacks, sandwiches, etc.

I can strictly recommend to stay at the Vintage House.


Amazing host and very good stay!

We loved everything about this old beautiful family housee and the host is kind and very helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much.
The house is located in old George Town so do expect noise from the street and cafés.

Loved everything

We spent 3 exceptional nights in this ancient Chinese house with all the necessary comforts, the owner Cheah is taking little care of her customers she gives you all the good plans of Penang to make your stay pleasant, thanks to her our stay was even better, she takes care of her guests like her family and we really feel the difference, I will surely return and still congratulate Cheah for his availability and kindness, thank you.

It feels like home.

We loved our stay at Vintage House, staying in a private double with bathroom, equipped with a comfy bed and plenty of character. The location is good, with lots of attractions just short walks away. Cheah made our stay complete though, always going out of her way to make us feel welcome and to help us with any requirements we had. On our last day we had a late night bus, so Cheah allowed us to return to the accommodation for a shower before we left, and even called us a taxi to take us to the bus station. Thanks for a great stay!

Cheah is the best host!

It is so nice when you return somewhere and it is as good as you remember.  This was one of those rare occasions.

It had been 3 years since I had visited.

The beds are good, the welcome hospitable, the place is clean.

Somehow the owner has maintained her enthusiasm to provide good service.

Like coming home

I booked a room with shared bath. The room is clean and comfortable. Both shared bathrooms are clean and I never had to wait for my turn to use the bathroom. There were bottled water provided in the room for consumption, one could get more for free if not enough. There were also free biscuits, coffee and tea provided. 

Cheah is an excellent host, she is friendly and helpful. She may not at the reception all the time but easily contactable via Whatsapp. She also sent recommended locations for Penang street food via Whatsapp on check-in. 

Vintage House is about 10 minutes walk from Penang Jetty and within walking distance to many attractions.

Great host and accommodation

Staff: super friendly, attentive and explains an entire city room: the room is quite large and like everything very clean, including fan and AC Wifi: not very fast, but stable and adequate for Netflix & Spotify location: city center, all within walking distance bed: very convenient location: all night you hear traffic

Great hotel, very personal but with street noise.

George Town with its 'World Heritage' tag, boasts some of the very best heritage houses, which have been converted to 'Boutique stay' with personal touch from its proud owners, who have inherited these properties from their family over past few generations. The legacy has continued, so does these 'heritage houses' standing strong with a stamp of its glorious past. 
One such heritage property is, 'Vintage House' - owned & managed by Ms. Cheah. Location of this property is undoubtedly the best, in the heart of George Town, with walking distance to most of the famous streets. Though, the exteriors of this house is dated and if you find it difficult to locate the property, Ms. Cheah is there to guide you properly well in advance.   
Once you climb up to first floor of Vintage house through its old wooden staircase, what awaits is, nearly a century old yet extremely well maintained mansion - thanks to all the personal attention from Ms. Cheah. She personally looks into every detail at Vintage House to ensure that, her guests have a very comfortable stay. 
The property doesn't serve any meals, but then when you are in George Town, it's a food paradise and you are bound to get spoiled for choices, with most of the good  eateries & street-food joints are situated within few hundred meters. However, the property does provide self-serviced tea & coffee through out the day, in the lobby area. 
The unique feature of Vintage House is, its 'services'. The personal attention provided by Ms. Cheah is simply amazing and she is a wonderful host, always ready to help with a smile. She is a very kind and warm-hearted person and her simple approach to business is "to ensure a pleasant experience for all the guests visiting her place". The property has just six rooms and much in demand through out the year. 
I thoroughly enjoyed my short stay at Vintage House and I am already looking forward to my next trip to the island and an opportunity to experience this heritage property, once again !!

Heritage Stay at it's best..

Cheah is the most wonderful host you can wish for. Cheah will send you many locations to eat delicious food via WhatsApp, extremely happy to help you with any questions you have; and if she is not around, you can WhatsApp her.

The accommodation is discreetly placed on the corner of Victoria street so just ask around if you have trouble finding it. Once inside you will see it was worth staying here. It is very well maintained with beautiful décor. We were traveling as a couple so were happy with the private bathroom but If you are traveling as a pair and prefer privacy from each other in regards to going to the bathroom then I would highly recommend getting the rooms with a shared bathroom.

We'd originally booked for two nights and within an hour of being there booked for another two; we had two nights in the private bathroom and two nights in the shared bathroom as the private was booked for the remainder.

Location wise is was very good also, we didn't use any taxi's or public transport. Walking distance to little India on chulia street and to all of Cheah's recommendations.

When we return to Penang we will definitely be coming back to Vintage House. 

Amazing host, beautiful accommodation...

In this charming old house, you will feel at home thanks to an exceptional welcome. Do not hesitate to stop by. The very lively neighborhood in the heart of George Town will allow you to discover all its corners and corners. Thank you Cheah 🙏🏼
