What's on Offer During Your Stay:
Access
In former times, travel to the top of Penang Hill was only possible on foot, on horseback, or by palanquin. Today, instead of an uncomfortable hour or more, you can enjoy the convenience of being whisked to the top of the Hill in less than ten minutes by modern funicular, or following the traditional route in air-conditioned comfort of a 4WD vehicle.
Guests arriving via Penang International Airport may request our personalized meet and greet arrival service, or a valet service at either of the Hill’s gateways, the funicular railway’s Lower Station, or at the Botanical Gardens.
