Clove Hall is an elegant two-storey bungalow of Edwardian Anglo-Malay heritage located in Penang. Built in the 1920s, in a former coconut plantation, it has been lovingly restored in the peranakan style and furnished with British colonial, Malay, and Chinese styles. Penang has a good choice of heritage accommodation but Clove Hall has the edge if you're looking to combine relaxation and sightseeing.
There are just six-bedrooms in Clove Hall, designed for the present-day traveller. All guest rooms have air-conditioning, four-poster beds and living spaces, decorated with antiques. Everything is generously proportioned, spotlessly clean and well-maintained. Throughout the property, Clove Hall follows a minimalist approach to design. The result is, that it retains its wonderful old-world charm, of the same unhurried and comfortable atmosphere.
The common areas are wide open to the garden and reflect a colonial ambience. The airy ground-floor living and dining spaces with French doors, open out to a green-tiled swimming pool, surrounded by Macarthur palms and frangipanis. Nearby, the hotel restaurant serves only breakfast at this upscale B&B. But, an SUV is on call for those who like to experience Penang’s diverse dining scene or explore Georgetown, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
