Soori Penang

🌺🌺🌺 Worth the Detour · 🌺 Luxury Resorts

Why go

A tiny 13-room hideaway carved out of restored shophouses on Lebuh Aceh, right in the UNESCO core of George Town. Sister to Soori Bali, it only opened in January 2026 and was handed a MICHELIN One Key within the same year - heritage bones, very modern calm inside.
