Stayed at Rasa Sayang hotel. Crew at kids club was attentive and caring. Daughter enjoyed pool activities and get to select their own meal at Sigi restaurant. A shout out to crew at Adventure zone, he was very patient and encouraged my daughter to try the red slide with steep slope. Overall, facilities are okay but attentive staff makes up for it.

Reviewed By aiyomango
A beautiful house filled with antiques -- it is well worth waiting to join a guided tour in order to get the most out of your visit, as many of the objects in the main house have short (rather than detailed) labels for visitors to read. Our guide, Stanley, was friendly and knowledgeable, giving us a great insight into the history of the family who had built and lived in the house, as well as taking us through the extensive collections on display. Stanley was very happy to answer questions from our little group and made our visit a fascinating, very memorable one!

One of the best museum in Penang where one can learn and understand all about the food culture and history of Malaysia. You will find larger than life food form of this multiracial country as well as interesting food facts and the history of the food here. I believe this is an one of its kind museum in the region. Totally worth the RM25 entrance fee.
