33, Lorong Stewart, George Town, 10200 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia
Great location, close to bus stops, bars, and food. Beds are very comfortable. Calm, chill place where no one bothers you. I stayed here a week and was very comfortable. Owner is also very nice.
Loveliest homestay? we had absolutely no problem staying here and we stayed for 3 days. It’s clean, convenient and reasonably priced too! There’s mirror, hooks, AC, shared toilets, free water, library and a beautiful veranda common area. It’s right in the middle of the pretty town and walkable to everywhere!
Very nice owner who gives good advice, thin walls but people are careful. Showers could be cleaner. The room without windows is very quiet... Except Saturday (until 23 only) cause Georgetown is having fun! ?. I enjoyed my stay there.
Review: Thirty Three Stewart Houze Guest House Thirty Three Stewart Houze is a fantastic choice for group travelers, solo adventurers, and couples. Located within the UNESCO heritage zone of Georgetown, it's within walking distance of popular attractions like the Goddess of Mercy Temple, Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, and Penang Peranakan Mansion. Major landmarks like Penang Jetty and KOMTAR are 15 minutes on foot, and Gurney Drive is a 15-minute drive away. Penang International Airport and Batu Ferringhi are just 35 minutes by car. The guest house offers chic, cubicle-style accommodations for privacy and comfort, ideal for singles and couples. All rooms are air-conditioned, and guests have access to a microwave and utensils. Towels are available for RM1 per towel. First Personal Experience During a spontaneous trip to Penang, I called Thirty Three Stewart Houze the same day I arrived, and Uncle Yam promptly answered. There was one single bed available for me and my boyfriend to stay for the night. The location is excellent, with many food stalls and tourist spots nearby. The hospitality was top-notch—Uncle Yam was friendly and accommodating, sharing interesting stories about the guest house and Penang’s history, which was meaningful as my dad is a local. The room was RM65 per night without requiring a deposit, making it affordable. The guest house has shared bathroom facilities with free hot/cold drinking water. There are both private rooms and capsule-style beds for budget travelers. A convenient highlight was the motorbike rental service from AM Sinar Enterprise, offering rentals at RM40 per day with a RM100 deposit—perfect for exploring Penang. Second Personal Experience Our second stay was just as memorable. After hiking to Penang Hill, we called ahead, and Uncle Yam immediately reserved a room for me and my husband. His warm hospitality continued, and we had a great time chatting about our previous stay and our new chapter as a married couple. Room and Amenities During both stays, we opted for the queen bed room at RM65 per night, which was affordable with no deposit required. The guest house has both private rooms and capsule-style hostel beds. Rooms with an en-suite shower are available for around RM90 per night. Shared bathroom facilities and free hot/cold drinking water are also provided. The location remains a major plus, with numerous food stalls and tourist attractions within walking distance. Price Range: RM48 - RM86 (Average rates for a standard room) My room: RM65 per night (queen bed) Room with queen bed and private shower: RM90 per night Overall Experience: I thoroughly enjoyed both stays at Thirty Three Stewart Houze. The warm hospitality, convenient location, and cozy atmosphere make it perfect for spontaneous trips. Uncle Yam’s friendliness adds a personal touch that makes the experience even more memorable. Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Penang!
