Aayu Church is a charming blend of heritage and comfort, nestled in the heart of George Town. The architecture carries a quiet elegance, reminiscent of European boutique stays, with tasteful touches and a serene atmosphere. The room was well-appointed, clean, and peaceful—ideal for unwinding after a day exploring the vibrant streets of Penang. Its location is excellent, within walking distance to both cultural sites and excellent local eateries. The team was warm and attentive, always ready to assist with a smile. A lovely experience overall—I would happily return.
