About Hotel Equatorial

Hotel Equatorial is a hotel in Bukit Jambul, Penang. It is the first major hotel to be built on the southern part of Penang Island, and although it is now over two decades old, it has managed to stand the test of time. Built primarily to serve the Bayan Lepas Industrial Zone, it is a business hotel on a hill. From Bukit Jambul, you can get a panoramic view of Bayan Lepas below.

What I like about this hotel

Its Japanese restaurant Kampachi, serves probably the best Japanese buffet in Penang. The panoramic view around the hotel is gorgeous.

What I don't like about this hotel

If you don't have your own transport, you don't get anywhere. As mentioned, it is sitting on a hill. You can take the hotel van to the nearest shopping mall, or pay a taxi to go elsewhere.
