The strategic location of the resort offers easy reach to many restaurants and bar at Batu Ferringhi (Ferringhi Bay is within walking distance), even night market! Sharing our experience on the 2D1N staycation in Parkroyal Penang Resort.
Many thanks to Parkroyal Penang Resort for hosting us.
From the moment we stepped into the Premier Seaview Room, the expansive balcony overlooking the Andaman Sea became our favorite spot—whether for sipping morning coffee with a sea breeze or unwinding to the sight of a golden sunset. The room itself is spacious and elegantly designed, complete with modern amenities that make relaxation effortless. We were pleasantly surprised with the variety of welcome fruits and chocolates on display the moment we checked the desk. Extra marks for the universal adaptor, foreign tourists need not use their converter for any charging! Just for your information- the price for the Premier Seaview Room (may fluctuate depending on the supply and demand) during the weekend we stayed was approximately RM500 before taxes).
You will never get bored in Parkroyal Penang Resort- to name some of the special experiences such as Congkak (every Monday at 2PM), Cooking Demo (every Monday or Thursday at 3PM), Bicycle Tour (every Tuesday or Thursday at 9AM), Garden Nature Tour (every Tuesday and Sunday at 3PM), Local Village Tour (every Wednesday and Sunday at 9AM) and Grasshopper-Making Workshop (every Wednesday or Sunday at 2PM). For more information, visit the Tower Counter near the main pool OR Tour Desk in the lobby.
If you prefer leisure and manage your own time, the 24-hour Gym is ideal for fitness buffs. The equipment is new and well-managed... with complimentary drinking water available. The Swimming Pool is lovely too, with a depth of 1.5M, it is suitable for any adults. Personally, I found the standard 1.2M a little too shallow; 1.5M is just perfect for me. It is also worth-mentioning that the Pool uses warm-water, so anytime you get in the pool (be it early morning or evening), the temperature is perfect. Kids will go crazy over the the Kid's Corner as well as the Water Slides, there are just so many things to explore in this resort.
Do not miss the Buffet Breakfast, the big spread is definitely worth your visit and time. The quintessential Western Breakfast items as well as continental varieties like Nasi Lemak, Porridge, Roti Canai are also available, same for vegetarian options. Our personal favorites are the freshly squeezed Juices and the Salad Bar. Definitely a great way to kick start the day.
