Amari SPICE Penang
Checked in was very smooth, "Yaya" from the checked in counter was very helpful and she even call the room to check is everything ok. Breakfast spread was superb. The only setback was the pillow for my 4 nights stay, to soft, maybe hotel can invest for a better pillow, a bit firm should be nice.

Clean room & comfortable. Thin walls, could hear neighbours constantly. The bathroom seemed dated, but not really an issue. Staff were fabulous!
