We love starting our day with a swim in the warm pool in the Heritage section, watching the ships and ferries come and go.
I was born in Penang. My parents had given me the address of their old house so after checkout we took a taxi to investigate. I could recognize the house from photos - it was interesting to see where I started my life.
From there we drove to Batu Ferringhi, the beach resort, to the Hard Rock Hotel. Last time we were in Penang we enjoyed visiting the night markets, and thought it would be great to stay here a couple of nights.
The hotel is not really our thing. It's set up for families. The pool is lovely and the hotel is set right on the beach.
The night markets are about ten minutes walk along the road back towards Penang. Many traders were not open this evening and trade was much quieter than last time we visited. Maybe the off-season at the moment?
We had a lovely dinner and some wine at an open restaurant close to the hotel.
