Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Yeng Keng's staff were excellent, so very helpful, friendly, always greeting with a smile and ready for a chat, advise offered on where to go, what to do were on point, they even helped us make bookings for restaurants. Whether it was the day or night staff, all round 5 star team ! Location of Yeng Keng was so convenient, with onsite parking. The pool was a surprise bonus for us. Rooms were comfortable, with nice hot shower. Security on site. Breakfast had a nice spread, food quality was good. We absolutely loved Yeng Keng and will be back.
Negative: Lighting could be better, space in room tight & at times awkward but workable. Rooms lacking somewhere to dry clothes e.g. swimmers.
Summary: Excellent hotel with heritage appeal right in the middle of Georgetown, you won't find better!
