Read an expert review from someone who's been
Trailfinders' James Ferdinando gives an insight into Shangri-La Rasa Sayang, Penang
Shangri-La Rasa Sayang, Penang Expert Review
James
Shangri-La Rasa Sayang is an immaculate hotel with lovely manicured grounds, an amazing pool and a great breakfast buffet with lots of options.
The rooms are a very good size and I would recommend requesting a room on one of the upper floors. The location is perfect with lots of stalls, bars, ATM's around.
If you’re looking for things to do nearby, then I would definitely recommend visiting Penang Hill where you can see dusty leaf monkeys (Google them, you won't be disappointed!), Georgetown, Monkey Beach and Kek Lok Si Temple, which are all about a 45 minute cheap taxi ride away.
Top tip: Make use of the free shuttle bus to Georgetown. It leaves the hotel at around 14:30 and returns about 17:00, meaning you can pretty much have a full afternoon of exploring pretty alleyways, multiple food stalls and some impressive colonial architecture.

Trailfinders Hotel Classification Guide
Modest accommodation with basic facilities, representing good value where price is the main priority.
Simple, comfortable accommodation and facilities offering good value for the destination.
Good standard of accommodation and/or facilities and overall a higher level of service may be expected.
High international standards of accommodation and facilities where luxury and quality of service are priorities.
Indicates that the property offers a higher than average level of accommodation and facilities when compared to other properties of the same classification.
Unique, often smaller and sometimes historic properties, which offer individual charm and are consequently very popular. They offer the standards of accommodation indicated by their classification but rooms may be smaller than average and not all facilities may be available.
Trailfinders classifications are for your guidance only and do not mirror any international "star rating" system. In each case, the full description of the property should be read and used in conjunction with the classification indicated. A 3★ city hotel, for example, may be more expensive than a 4★ if it is in a prime location. Classifications are unique to a destination and can reflect local or regional variations in quality and service, so a 5★ in a particular area may not be comparable with a 5★ elsewhere.
