Penang House of Music

4.7(218 reviews)

About

Found on Penang, Penang House of Music occupies Level 4 of KOMTAR on Jln Penang in George Town, placing it in the heart of the island's capital. Its setting in George Town means visitors staying in Batu Ferringhi, Gurney Drive, Tanjung Bungah or Teluk Bahang can reach it via the main roads into town. The venue is a live music spot, and it carries a 4.7 out of 5 average from 218 reviews. That review record is what the venue is known for, drawing listeners who come for performances rather than a general night out. The website at http://www.penanghouseofmusic.com/ lists what is on.

Performances take place inside KOMTAR, a landmark tower that also places the venue near Georgetown Heritage. The 4.7 out of 5 average across 218 reviews reflects a steady stream of feedback from visitors who have attended shows. Being on Level 4 keeps the music separate from the street-level bustle of George Town, and the surrounding nearby areas include Balik Pulau and Penang Hill for anyone extending a day out. For a first-time visitor, the venue sits within the same town as most of the island's heritage sights.

Malay is written in the Latin alphabet, while the Jawi script remains in use for some religious and Malay texts, so signage is readable for most visitors. Malaysian food combines Malay, Chinese and Indian cooking, with dishes such as nasi lemak, laksa and roti canai available around George Town.

George Town's grid makes the venue walkable from much of the centre. Evening shows pair well with a meal in town beforehand. The island's roads connect the northern beaches to the capital, so a taxi or rental car covers the distance from the resorts.
