Penang, a vibrant tapestry of culture and history, just got a dash more glamorous with the arrival of The Millen Penang, Autograph Collection. This isn’t just another hotel; it’s a statement. Nestled along the prestigious Northam Road, affectionately known as “Millionaire’s Row,” The Millen marks the debut of Autograph Collection Hotels in Penang, and it’s making quite the entrance.
Imagine stepping back in time, yet simultaneously being firmly planted in the present. Guests of The Millen need not imagine, as they can experience that magic firsthand. The Millen effortlessly blends colonial-inspired elegance with modern sophistication, a true reflection of Penang’s rich heritage. The design is immaculate, a carefully curated journey through time and style. Step into The Millen and you’re transported to a world where the echoes of the past resonate beautifully with the luxuries of the present. The hotel reimagines the grandeur of a bygone era within Northam Road’s iconic 1800s setting, offering a truly unique experience.
Next, we move on to the hotel’s beautiful guestrooms. But be prepared, these aren’t just rooms; they’re sanctuaries with breathtaking panoramic views of the shimmering Andaman Sea. The comfort level? Off the charts. Each room features high-quality linen fittings, marble-clad interiors that exude luxury, dual vanity tops for that extra touch of indulgence, and luxurious bathtubs framed by floor-to-ceiling windows – perfect for soaking in the views (and maybe a good book).
The food options here are equally magical, taking guests on a whole culinary journey. Starting off with Lili, this restaurant is a celebration of local Penang flavours, a showcase of the island’s vibrant cuisine. Craving something a little more British? The Good Society serves up an exquisite British tea experience, complete with Devonshire tea and The Millen Espresso – artisanal coffee that’s sure to wake you up and delight your taste buds. They also serve freshly baked pastries and cakes, perfect for those who want something light. In contrast, for the carnivorous gourmet hunters out there, the Blacklinen Restaurant is a must-visit. This charcoal-grill restaurant specialises in premium aged meats, fresh seafood, and an extensive wine selection.
When it comes to hosting events, The Millen provides a truly exceptional setting. The Upperton Hall Grand Ballroom, with its impressive LED screen, sets the stage for impactful presentations and memorable events. For smaller meetings and gatherings, The Chamber and The Dialogue Boardrooms provide a refined atmosphere, where natural light streams in and the sounds from the BOSE sound system fill the air, creating the ideal environment for productive collaboration.
And because wellness is just as important as indulgence, The Millen boasts a 24-hour fitness centre for those who like to keep their fitness routine on track. After a good workout, take a refreshing dip in the saltwater-treated infinity pool overlooking the Straits of Melaka. Or, if relaxation is more your style, the Nut&Meg Wellness Spa awaits, ready to pamper you into a state of blissful tranquillity. The Millen Penang, Autograph Collection, isn’t just a hotel; it’s an experience.
