Starting from the impressive lobby, Savv hotel got everything right. They allowed us an early check-in @ 1 p.m. without an additional charge. Their rooms were clean, spacious and had great views of the sea. The bathroom was huge with a demarcated area for bathing. You get potable (drinking) water straight from the sink. Most of the key sights of Georgetown are within walking distance. The breakfast was of good quality, staff was helpful and they had umbrellas for the guests to use, quite useful both in rain and heat.

    Walking through George Town feels like stepping into a living museum with rows of pastel-painted shophouses, grand colonial mansions, Chinese clan houses, temples, mosques, and churches stand within blocks of each other. Its narrow streets are filled with hawker stalls serving some of Malaysia’s most beloved dishes. Independent cafés, boutique hotels, and art galleries thrive inside restored heritage buildings, blending old-world charm with modern flair.

    The food was the stand-out attraction for me; the variety, quality and availability was exceptional. You can go from breakfast on the side of the street for 7 MYR all the way to Michelin-star restaurants (can't speak for them though!), but everything has it's charm. The weather was very favourable and everyone was welcoming. It is a popular tourist destination, so if you're looking to get away from other tourists I wouldn't recommend it, but there's plenty to see and do.

    A smaller boutique hotel will always win for me over a large hotel. Seven Terraces is just the right size in a perfect location of Georgetown where everything is just a walk away. The staff were very helpful, in particular the lobby staff and a lovely young man who served us in the restaurant and a few breakfasts. Pool was great. Especially sitting alongside eating delicious sweet treats for afternoon tea. Worth visiting the restaurant onsite for dinner. Truly enjoyable.

    A very good choice for vacation: great location, good breakfast, afternoon tea, lounge happy hour (rich enough to skip dinner…) nice staff and relaxing everywhere. The historical hotel may be old with aged facilities, but still functional and cozy. A place to explore George Town by city walk very easily after 17:00 (to avoid the heat) and enjoy great food from fine dining to local street, from eastern to western. Will come back again.
