We stayed here for 2 wonderful nights.
The hotel features in the World Boutique Hotel Awards Collection 2015 and rightly so. With 11 beautiful bedrooms, library, roof terrace, stylish traditional design and friendly staff who make every effort made to accommodate customers exacting requirements this as good as it gets. Just don't expect an olympic sized swimming pool, gymnasium and conference facilities.

This hotel is so very beautiful and unique, expressing love for a vibrant bygone age that was the Peranakan Chinese in the late 19C and early 20C in the highly decorated southern Chinese furniture, objets and gilded carpentry in the hotel's overall decor, as well as the use of Victorian floor tiles which was favoured for both their beauty and practicality. Standards are some of the highest anywhere, in stylish and unique decor, cleanliness (pristine), friendliness and helpfulness of the staff...

Everything was clean throighoit the whole hotel.
Premium quality finish on Premier room.
Pool/bar area was a nice place to chill with a good city view.
Gym was good, could just do with with a few more weight machines in my opinion.
All staff very friendly 😃

Staff were always friendly, welcoming and extremely helpful. Everything is brand new and lovely. Rooms are elegant and spacious with an excellent shower. Great location for walking to Little India, Little China, the heritage area, jetties, street art, and many eateries of all kinds. Beautiful rooftop infinity pool with towels and shower.

Areca Hotel was delightful, full of character, so much nicer than the high rise hotels we have been staying in so far on this trip. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, not only with a welcome drink, but an invitation to afternoon tea each afternoon of our stay. The room was small, but adequate and freshened every day inclcluding clean towels etc.

The hotel is a tranquil oasis in busy George Town. The building is elegant and the interior of the hotel is tastefully styled. Overall it was very comfortable for our 5 night stay. Best of all is the team of staff who attended us through our stay. They are very friendly, helpful and attentive. I highly recommend this hotel.

The staff are amazing at this hotel. They are an absolute asset. I believe one was called Martin and there was a Tamil lady, too. They were both amazing.
The rooms are amazing..so comfortable and very big. Loved the massive daybed and the bed. The seating area is great. The location is very good as well.
