“Hard Rock Hotel Penang will be one of the most sought after vacations in Penang. We define modern and stylish beach resorts with all the unexpected attributes for each of our guest to experience a lifestyle that is over the top.

Not to be missed, the 26,000 sq ft free-form swimming pool – one of the largest swimming pools in Penang – even features underwater speakers. The Hard Rock Hotel Penang has five Food & Beverage outlets, including an Hard Rock Cafe. Other outlets include the Starz Diner, an all-day dining restaurant featuring Asian and International Cuisine and the Pizzeria by the poolside.
