Stay at Muntri Grove in George Town

Muntri Grove offers a small pool on the first floor surrounded by greenery, providing a cool retreat after sightseeing. Guests can access a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage, and airport shuttle service upon request. Free red bean, mango, and durian ice cream is available from a dedicated freezer, and complimentary afternoon tea with local kuih is served poolside on selected days.

Rooms are housed in a restored heritage shophouse with high timber ceilings, original wooden shutters, and antique furnishings. Each family suite includes a separate loft area, while all rooms feature a canopied four-poster bed with mosquito netting. The decor incorporates Peranakan-style handcrafted textiles and vintage furniture sourced from the region.

The hotel's sister property, Muntri Mews, operates Mews Café, which serves local Malay food using fresh ingredients. For fine dining, Kebaya offers upscale Nyonya and Anglo-Malay cuisine and is considered one of Penang's best restaurants. Guests receive a 10% discount voucher for Mews Café, though the hotel itself does not serve breakfast or full meals.

The hotel focuses on Peranakan culture, reflected in its antique decor and curated artifacts throughout the property. A massage service can be arranged upon request for full relaxation. The lush garden and outdoor terrace provide a tranquil space for reading or tea, contrasting with the lively streets outside.
