Above is a photo taken outside the exterior of Vouk Hotel Suites, an establishment owned by MBI, the owner of the now famous M Mall at Penang Times Square. During the Hari Raya Holidays from 6th to 7th July which happened to be my birthday on the first day of Raya, my partner and I stayed at this newly opened hotel located at the junction of Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah in Penang.
Being a new hotel suite, we parked outside in the compound of the hotel as there were a few parking bays. Potted plants were placed on the outside to spruce up the look and feel of the hotel.
Inside the lobby, there were intricately designed lotus flowers lights coming from the ceiling and also the floor with matching designs. They give a feel of luxuriousness to the interior of the hotel suites, which is the signature design of MBI - added with a touch of posh.
Inside the room of the topmost floor which is 10th floor, we went into the room using the card key and slot in the card to the holder to turn on the electricity and air-con. This is the queen size bed beckoning us to take a nap soon. The room is not too big and just right for 2 persons. It has an adjoining room separated by a locked door. However, voices and sounds from the next room was rather loud for a hotel such as this. Apparently, there is not enough sound proof added to the walls or ceiling.
Unlike most hotels where you have to pay for food inside the fridge, here it was complimentary at Vouk Hotel Suites. The cup noodles, tea sachets, bottled mineral water, mixed nuts, 2 cans of drinks and chocolate wafer were on the house - all for the taking home or dining there. One caveat though, after I had bathed and then it was my partner's turn to bath, the floor started to flood with an inch thick of water - apparently the water could not flow out smoothly in the water pipe. Other than this inconvenience, I think, it was rather worth it at RM 201 net inclusive of GST and other charges to stay here.
