Good central location between GAMA and 1st Avenue mall with coffee shops and restaurants nearby, or a short GRAB ride away. Rooms are clean, small and relatively comfortable. The price is reasonable for what you get. Maid service every other day. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Front desk staff approachable and helpful. Overall, value for money. I liked the multistorey car park, as it was not on street level. Location was good.

I booked this hotel due to its proximity to KOMTAR bus terminal for convenience of my Penang Bridge International Marathon travel. Room was quite small but facilities were good. Check in/out had to be done at The Wembley’s lobby. No free breakfast was included in my package.

Nothing special

The sink was clogged. We told the staff, and they said they will send a maintenance staff to look at it but it was never done. We ended up asking to change to a different room on the following day. We came back one day and saw the door was left open and unlock after the room was made. We'll never consider Cititel Express in future.
