Filled with famous brands and heaps of MYR1 massage chairs, it was our definition of a good time. It gets really busy during the weekends - nevertheless it is an escape route from the blazing heat of the Penang Island. Not much to do other than shopping and eating out - your typical basic mall. Certain shops have really pushy... More

Went there recently. Run of the mill shops within but a lot of variety. Prices are not cheap. A lot of variety of choices for food. Also went to the karaoke(Redbox) and had the buffet dinner package(RM44++ with buffet dinner and 4 hours of singing). The system and programme is new, touch screen with a good selection of songs. Had... More

Nice air conned shopping mall, lots of shops to browse, get a haircut or massage or have your lunch... Nice supermarket on the basement floor.. Avoid at busy weekends though, especially if you want to try and find a parking space.

We visited with our 4 year old daughter and had a great time shopping for stuff for us, though left mainly with toys for our daughter. The food court in the basement is authentic and I had a great Penang Laksa, while our daughter enjoyed ice cream. A definite yes for the shoppers.

One very hot Sunday we escaped to Gurney plaza. I had planned to spend an hour shopping but my 9 year old daughter was in heaven and so we spend 6 plus hours here. We went to the hair dresser, had lunch, had a massage, watched a movie, people watched and shopped. I am really not a mall person (I... More

This is by far the best shopping centre of Penang. Starbucks in conveniently located at the entry near the beach and the cinema at the roof top level has all the latest movies for the wonderful price of 13RM. In the building of the complex it is obvious that the 6th level was stuffed up. It is made for the... More
