Key card, double lock & peep hole. Good comm by staff (reservation). Clean pillow, bolster, towel, bath mat & duvet. Cons Windows locked (a gap would suffice). Feeling nausea with stuffy room. Noisy neighborhood. Limited parking bay. Bathroom small (adequate). Parquet floors cracked & bulging. Flimsy electrical wire (water heater). Writing table broken (legs). Non smoking rooms.

Sweet Cili embraced homestay theme, where guests experience local culture and feel of home away from home. Places of interest, eateries and shopping are all within walking distance.
Quaint and lovely hotel
Reviewed By BeckyyylWhat I like about Sweet Cili Hotel (“SCH”) are as follows: 1. Cleanliness - the reception, the common room and the room are kept sparkling clean all throughout our 3- night stay. 2. Hassle free check-in and check-out - both processes were quick and smooth. 3. Location - SCH is situated near the heritage sites, reachable by walking. If driving, the roads can be busy. 4. Room - My family of 4 stayed in the loft room which has ample space. The décor is a vintage theme which we find charming (as per the photos shown). The few things that I find challenging (my own observations) are: 1. The bar next door played music from opening time till closing time (if you’re one to sleep early/ light sleeper, this might be a concern). Our loft room is just next to the bar. 2. If you drive, the car parks are those street parking bays operated by the Penang Council. It can be difficult to find a parking bay during peak hours. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at SCH.
