Located within a walkable distance or a short drive from the iconic Blue Mansion, our heritage townhouses offer the rare balance of private, residential living with the considered comforts of a full-service heritage hotel.
Guests enjoy access to the hotel’s key amenities, allowing each stay to be shaped to personal rhythm and preference. Mornings begin with a thoughtfully curated breakfast, enjoyed either within the elegant surroundings of the hotel or delivered to be savoured in the comfort and privacy of your own townhouse. During the day, guests are welcome to unwind by the swimming pool or seek gentle guidance from the concierge team for reservations, neighbourhood recommendations, or local insights.
Set within George Town’s historic quarters, the townhouses place you directly in the flow of everyday city life. Cafés opening their shutters, markets coming alive, temples marking the passing hours. Yet each return brings a sense of calm and retreat: generous space, quiet interiors, and the ease of a home designed for longer, more meaningful stays.
It is an experience created for travellers who value authenticity and independence, while appreciating the quiet assurance of thoughtful service and access to one of Penang’s most celebrated heritage landmarks.

A Note on The Restoration
With each residence, the restoration approach has been conscious and respectful to not just the history of the house, but also the neighbourhood in which it stands. Care was taken to restore, repair and uncover original elements such as wooden beams, terracotta tiles and granite slabs. Working with local artisans and craftsmen, materials were reused and upcycled. In cases where they were unsalvageable, meticulous replacements were sourced.
