My stay at The Edison George Town was an absolute delight, blending historic charm with modern comforts. The warm welcome I received from the staff made me feel right at home, while the spacious room and unique colonial charm added a touch of luxury. However, a couple of minor issues, like the limited breakfast options, kept it from being perfect.

The complimentary breakfast was quite basic, with options limited to a few egg dishes and toast. However, the evening wine and cheese hour was a nice way to unwind. I could have used a bit more variety at breakfast, considering the beautiful food scene in Penang.
