yeah i'm still not over with my penang trip yet, kali ni nak cerita tentang mana nak tinggal pulak kat penang tu. if you go to penang, where do you normally stay? macam selalu sangat je kan pegi penang? hihi
after my studying years at balik pulau, penang i never spend a night there anymore until last year and latest was last week. and during both visits, i stayed at batu feringghi area, near to the beach. the town is never my choice as it's too packed there with people, with cars and i won't get that vacation feelings there.. plus, i love pantai so much so of course lah akan pilih pantai saja di mana jua berada.
i searched the hotels in penang through agoda. com and found a few nice hotels at batu feringghi area. mostly are rm200 and above per night except for this hydro majestic hotel penang. the rate is very very affordable okay? i wonder why it's so cheap compared to other hotels. it's nice, it has it's own beach but you need to cross the road, the room is clean, the staffs are okay (i don't deal much with them but they were okay la), and the rates are low. murah la compared to other hotels...
another hotel would be holiday inn penang, also nice.. they are on both sides of the road. beach wing and feringghi tower i think and the rooms are well kept too.. the price are of course higher than hydro but this hotel is located at the hype area so you don't have to drive around to find things to eat or to shop. the night market is here, around this area. reminds me of pantai chenang area at langkawi, kedah.
at the night market, you can find loads of pirated cd's.. nak apa, semua ada, yang baru release, lama dah release, music cd's, movies and all lah.. then, they have stalls selling those cute decoration lights, selling 'designers' handbags (ada yang cantik okay), clothes and cute souvenirs for tourists.
that's all i can tell about where to stay in penang, sebab dua tu je yang saya tau. where do you stay when you go to penang? have you been to lone pine? hotel tu tengah renovate, and i want to go thereeee

For a group or family, can consider renting an apartment that can take up to 8, cheaper than hotels :-)
