In a city celebrated for its unique blend of history and modernity, The Prestige Hotel has cemented its status as a cornerstone of Penang’s evolving luxury landscape. During a grand ceremony in Bangkok, the hotel was bestowed with the title of “Best Hotel Penang” at the prestigious TTG Travel Awards 2025, a testament to its exceptional design and service.
This accolade is particularly notable as The Prestige was the sole hotel from Penang to receive recognition, setting it apart in the region’s competitive hospitality market. The award acknowledges the hotel’s meticulous attention to detail and its distinct character, a “tropical Victorian Eden” born from the reimagining of a 19th-century godown within a UNESCO World Heritage site. The property’s interior, with its play on visual trickery and magical ambiance, is a design marvel that continues to captivate discerning travelers.
Accepting the award, General Manager Melvin Ooi highlighted the collaborative spirit that led to this achievement. He thanked travel agents for their support and affirmed the team’s commitment to “raise the bar and deliver exceptional experiences”. This recognition underscores the hotel’s success in creating an urban sanctuary that feels both energized and serene.
The TTG Travel Awards honor the best in the Asia-Pacific travel industry, and this win solidifies The Prestige Hotel’s position not just as a place to stay, but as a destination that defines the sophisticated, detail-oriented travel experience.
A heartfelt congratulations to the entire team at The Prestige Hotel. This award is a well-deserved tribute to their vision and dedication to crafting a truly unique experience. It’s a moment of immense pride for them and a vibrant signal to the world that Penang’s hospitality scene is flourishing, offering some of the finest stays for the modern traveler.
