Hard Rock Hotel Penang Review

There is only one Hard Rock Hotel in Malaysia and it is in Penang. Opened a few years ago, the Hard Rock Hotel Penang has never stopped “rocking” the guests with its Hard Rock Hotel brand.

Located at Batu Ferringhi, the hotel provides one of the best views for sunset as well as one of the best beaches in Penang.

Always remember to check your tyre condition and tyre pressure before any roadtrips. Be safe than sorry.

I visited the hotel recently with my family as I wanted to bring my son for a road trip. Like many other road trips, it is important to have regular car service, tyre pressure and condition checking as well as car seat for the little one.

It is important to have a child car seat for your child. Zen loves his car seat.

 

Many people seems to underestimate the importance of the tyres but many forgotten that the car is running on the four tyres. Before any road trips, I always make sure the tires are on good condition as well as the right PSI (tyre pressure). If you ask me about my favourite tyre brand, it will be always Michelin, well trusted for decades.

Driving from Kuala Lumpur to Batu Ferringhi takes around four hours (within speed limit) and a few toilet breaks. Once we reached the hotel, we were greeted by the smiley hotel staffs and we were assigned to the designated hotel guests parking spaces.

There are three pools here including the adult pool.

For my son Zen, he enjoys the baby pool. It is like a mini water park and it is good for families for sure. There are three parts of the baby pool. The shallow pool, the baby pool and play area. The shallow pool is covered with sand while the play area comes with a few water slides as well as splashing area, mini water fountains and a few more.

Zen can play for hours in the pool as we bought a float for him so he can play around in the pool. It didn’t take long for him to have new friends in the pool.

The pool is our daily routine in Hard Rock Penang as Zen simply loves it. Whenever he wakes up from his sleep or his nap, he will walk to the glass door in the room and points to the pool.
