In order to unveil a fresh new look to guests, G Hotel Gurney has recently completed a great makeover worth RM 35 million. This 5-star hotel in town is no longer strange to almost everyone in Penang as shoppers may always pass through the hotel lobby on their way to and fro between Gurney Plaza and Gurney Paragon Mall.
In conjunction with the completion of makeover project, the Marcom team from G Hotel conducted a little bit extraordinary this time in order to outstand from common happenings like food review. I was very honoured to be one of the six bloggers to be invited for 'Perfect Bed and Perfect Pint Challenge'.
Me with my freshly-pumping beer.
Personally, it was an awesome afternoon to spend and memorable one, all thanks to G Hotel for having us. It is, indeed, the time to reveal to you guys more about G Hotel, particularly, the suite room!
And you know, it's somehow a cliche to understand more thorough on G Hotel through food review. G Suite, with only 2 units in G Hotel, is the highest room category for guest's ultimate luxury pampering. Make sure you scroll down to see more photos of the suite.
The event started with a meet up with all bloggers and the Marcom team under the lead of MarCom director, Christina Tan at the lobby and headed to meet the housekeeping team.
Mr Herry, one of the housekeepers did a demonstration of making the perfect bed in terms of neatness ,clealiness as well as efficiency. I was SO LUCKY to be the first challenger for both game.
but deep down anxious to the max.
Mr Shahril Seman, housekeeping manager of G Hotel Gurney and yours truly.
The allocation time for this challenge is 10 minutes with additional 5 minutes for those who need it.
No joke, I couldn't even lift the bed at all!
The expert housekeeper, Herry
VS
The clumsy housekeeper, yours truly.
The result...
TA-DAAA!
hey, no la, it's not my work
BUT
as followed,
Hahaha! I should really consider to go for a training of making bed, seriously!
Messy bed don't care! Victory first!
Despite my messy finished work with an exhausting body, I would once again salute to all the housekeepers over the world as their job inclusive of folding bedsheet, putting up the duvet cover and duvet insert, finished up with 4 pillow cases as well. Thank you guys for the great effort to have us the comfortable staying!
The bloggers waiting at the posh and spacious living room for their turn. Thanks to MarCom team for killing the time with us.
''Rasa Sayang" is so refreshing to sip thatsimply perfect for me who was exhausted right after completed the challenge. Best seller in the G Lounge.
A group photo include all bloggers, MarCom team and also the representatives from house keeping department. Thank you guys especially the house keeping team!
Next, we moved to
Tree Bar for the second which is also the last session of the event.
It is the
largest al-fresco bar in Penang fits up to
198 happy hour goers!
Tree Bar is indeed a great place to hangout in an afternoon. Be it shine or rain, there is a shaded section. Else, you could always sit back and unwind as well as indulged in beer and delicious food.in an open-air concept.
The competition started straight after Mr Danson Khaw, assistant outlet manager demonstrated his skillful pumping for a perfect pint. It is all about the speed and accuracy of pumping in order to reach the perfect foam level.
Considered not bad for a first timer, ain't it?
Here's the promotion list I've got for you all.
Jom la, Happy Hour la whey, BUY 1 FREE 1 leh!
For non-alcoholic mania, Cider Bite is absolutely your choice of beverage to go over there. It is the combo of beer and cider with a dash of Ribena, certainly the ladies' favourite, I suppose.
Buffalo Wings - RM 29
Deep fried chicken wings with fresh celery, carrots and cheese sauce.
Mozzarella Cheese Sticks - RM 22
Deep fried mozzarella sticks with mexican garlic salsa and extra virgin olive oil.
Currywust Sausage - RM 26
German chicken sausage braised in curry leaf, ketchup and spices.

Spot that big tree behind?
Here's the fun fact, it is not an ordinary tree that you think of but is absolutely older than you!
'Albizia Saman' is 80 over years old. The locals call it as 'five o'clock' tree ('Pukul Lima' in Malay) as its leaves fold during the rainy weather and in the evening. Be sure you watch it live and capture it whenever you have the chance!
Once again, a group photo with all!
Although I did not manage to accomplish both challenges game, it was really a cool and brand new experience to me! I'm sincerely grateful to be one of the participants and got to mingle with the bloggers as well as the MarCom team in an afternoon.
