George Town Mansion

Very nice mansion. Cost 25rm to visit 2 mansions. Well worth the money. All antique from that period.

Many thanks to Mr Alvin for the warmest welcome in the explanation and guiding us from the owner of the mansion, antique and history. We had an amazing experience in learning about our ancient history as a Malaysian with memorable moments on a random Sunday.

Jack, the staff who gave us a very detailed and nice tour. It helps us to understand more about the history and culture of Malaysian. We really enjoy the time in Mansion. :)

The place itself is magnificent! Such a wonderful visit and it become more memorable because of Alvin. He was the staff on duty during our visit and we have a share of good laughs as he is so friendly and lively! He also helped to take wonderful photos. We can’t thank him enough for the wonderful experience! The place is truly lovely and there is also a vintage car park outside that will complete your photo collections. ❤

highly recommend! we were taking photographs outside the mansion when the guide came out and talked to us and shared that this was newly opened and that they were running a promotion along with the Pinang Peranakan Museum, rm 25 for both museums and so we went for both.

our guide was extremely friendly and knowledgeable on the topics and was very happy to answer any questions we had, he also told us photo spots and kept offering to help us take photographs, even offering pose suggestions to get good shots, overall I'd say it's worth visiting! :)

Very pretty mansion, not much historical value but incredibly well decorated. You can go to this museum for free if you've bought tickets to the pinang peranakan museum. Alvin, my guide, waz super nice and charismatic. He even arranges some of the flowers you see in the mansion himself!

I seldom write reviews but when I do, it is definitely that great! My tour guide (Alvin) and the museum manager is top notch. It has just newly opened due to post covid. Take the opportunity, to go there while it’s less crowded and admission fee is cheap.

Had a wonderful experience at George Town Mansion today. Alvin was a very good guide, always entertaining with his stories of the heritage and always helpful with taking of photos. Definitely worth a visit when in Penang!

Interesting new private museum which just open in November 2022. The same owner as Pinang Peranakan Mansion, so 1 ticket you can visit both of the mansion. Worth taking a look now before their official launch before it become too crowded

Highly recommend museum! Now Free! ( Future maybe not) Nice place with has historic story about Baba-Ngonya and Maley.
There are many beautiful and value collectibles from the past. There are many point to take pictures. Mr. Jack Ong, Manager, and team are really nice. They welcomed us very well, and even introduced the posture and photo spots, if you come alone. Thank you😊

Alvin was our friendly tour guide who spoke good English, Mandarin and the delightful Penang Hokkien that morning and he shared extensively and in detail on the various history, artefacts, decorative items and pieces that came into this mansion. An awesome tour round this amazing and beautiful mansion.

A very beautifully decorated mansion with many displays of european influences into the local culture. Surely one of the places to visit as you explore the town. We were hosted by a very friendly guide (Mr. Koh) who took great pictures for us around the mansion.

One of the very rare that you see museums The Pinang Peranakan Mansion in George Town, Penang, Malaysia, that too so well kept. The art and decor will make your experience great. If you want to do something different in George Town, this is a must visit if it suits your taste. Thanks to the private tour conducted by Mr. Jack and his professional team.

Sister museum to the more popular Malaysian version.

Great experience! The location is in the middle of the city, easy to travel, not far. The informant greeted us first. which shows sincerity and intended to tell the story of the place the origin of this Here is another place that I would like to invite you to visit. after having gone The first museum The same ticket can be used to enter here free of charge. This place is not yet officially open for visits. But it's open for us to visit normally.

Newly open in end of November after repairs and refurbishment. Lovely place. Joined the in house tour. He was detailed in his explaination and was very engaging. He was also very attentive, helping us take photos and always willing to answer our queries and questions.

Very nice experience, the tour guide is professional and excellent enthusiastic. Good place to know the history of Malaysia.

Really lovely little mansion. Complimentary tour of the place was really great. Our Tour Guide Jack was very passionate and full of information, he was also very kind and considerate always offering to take photos of us and allowed us to carefully hold and touch some of the antiques. Highly recommend you visit this mansion and join a tour. You can also buy a combined ticket for this mansion and Pinang Peranakan Mansion. The latter is more Chinese architecture, whereas this is more local Malay architecture, with some European influence.

Decided to pop in for 10 min but ended up staying for over an hour! It also turned out to be a highlight of our Penang trip. Our guides Mr Jack and Mr Ishikawa were truly great hosts :)

Definitely recommend it, especially to antique lovers!

A very nice place to visit, especially the manager, Mr Jack Ong very friendly and humour. He is very knowledgeable in Malaysia Nyonya history.
