I recently stayed at Shangri-La Golden Sands in Penang, and overall it was a pleasant experience. The location is definitely one of the highlights — it’s convenient, close to the beach, and surrounded by plenty of food and activities. The hotel itself looks nice and well-maintained, with a relaxing atmosphere that makes it great for a getaway.
However, I do feel that the service could be better. While some staff were friendly, there were moments where the service felt a bit slow or inattentive. With a few improvements in this area, the experience could be truly excellent.

Water park is nice for a family with kids and spend time here is soo valuable with the sea is directly in front of the building.

This is the best hotel for kids. With pools and softplay. Close to Batu Ferringhi Beach where you can enjoy the beach and fire show there. Got massage place nearby.
Only downside which no one mentions is there is a morning pray speaker just next to the hotel which will wake you up in the morning, but the hotel will change the room for you if you request

Overall everything was good except for the check in process. It took such a long time to checking in and we had to queue up for quite long that it was not convenient for families with little children. Hope the process can be quick in the future. Thank you, the buggy service was the best part as the parking lot was bit far and it was raining too.
