Where you’ll be

George Town, Penang, Malaysia

Carnarvon House is located in Carnarvon Lane. We love this lane very much as it is one of the most quiet but also safe residential neighbourhood. The peoples living here are very good example of minimalist, they live life simple but happy! Heritage houses on both side of the lane are beautiful in our eyes.

My work: Carnarvon House
Speaks Chinese, English, and Malay
Hi, my name is Nicole, I was born and grew up in the beautiful city of Penang. In the year of 2004, I moved to Taiwan and graduated with a major in tourism management three years later. After then, I came back to my country and worked as a tour guide for the past few years. It has taken me all over the world and got me to explore and experience new cultures and since I've been dreaming to start my guesthouse to create a homely and lovely accommodation certainly I have achieved it. I'm truly grateful to run this private boutique guesthouse and aim to deliver a "home away from home" experience for my guest. This fascinating guesthouse is located in the historical Georgetown Penang and just a few minutes' walk away from all the heritage attractions of historical Georgetown and the various eclectic dining options that Penang is famous for.
