We booked 2 rooms with the king bed over looking the beach. Overall, we stayed total of 13 nights for the 2 rooms. The hotel staff were helpful and professional. One of them, Tirah, she went above and beyond for us. She resolved our problem when cigarettes smoke permeate our room. The food at the restaurant was also good.

Great family hotel on the beach

It was our annual family getaway and Mercure Penang Beach ticked off most of the checkboxes except a few! The room was great with a fantastic view of the sea. A nice pool and the beach just in front was wonderful. However, we faced few issues with service. On the first day after the check-in, they seemed to have misplaced our luggage. It took a couple of hours and multiple calls to the front desk to finally get our luggages in the room.Also the housekeeping could be a bit more thorough as both the shampoo and the toilet paper were out in the bathroom and we had to call the front desk to get replacement.

Great hotel but cramped bathroom

It's a nice hotel for the rate charged. Great service and nice location by the beach. Only complaint I have is the cramped bathroom. The door to the bathroom opens inwards and makes it very tight to move around in the bathroom. I don't understand why they don't have the door open outwards instead. The door frames will allow that.

February stay

The hotel is in a good position with direct access to the beech, 20 mins by taxi from central Georgetown. The staff are helpful. Th bedrooms are ok but pretty tired - Mercure should look an overhaul of the furniture and decor. Bedrooms also suffer from corridor noise at night. No bar during day and big opportunity to sell food and drink during the day missed. I can’t really recommend as there is not enough nearby to compensate for Hotel offer.

Lack of room amenities

Room consider clean and comfort, outdoor parking are limited but hotel have indoor parking next to the building. One of the point like to share is lack of room amenities. The superior room (road view) do not have bathmat, no hand tower (but provide face tower) which i think are essential.

Great location with beautiful beach front and nice pool. Rooms are large. However this experience didn’t live up to what I expected of a well known international hotel brand. The rooms were noisy, we had to asked to be moved as we could hear everything through an adjoining door to the room next door. There was black mould in the shower and despite staying 9 nights our room was not cleaned once, just made up daily. A few times we came back late in the afternoon and our room still hadn’t been made up. The WiFi hardly ever worked in our room. If you wanted to ask reception about anything it was always very slow to be able to speak to someone.

Hotel is looking very tired. Vinyl clad couch in our room was split in many places. TV show options were very poor to say the least. Having said that the room staff were very good and the bed was comfy. There is nowhere to sit in a/c comfort when you check out and are waiting to be picked up. There is no booklet explaining the hotel facilities and how to get around the local area in the room. Overall disappointing 😞
