Ryokan Chic Hostels
 
If you are thinking of Japanese, flashpacking and modern technology. Sum it all up, and you get a chic hostel called Ryokan. Ryokan's first hostel in Malaysia is located at Muntri Street, Georgetown Penang. Proudly proclaimed as the first flashpacker hostel in Malaysia, its boutique hostel redefines the true meaning of flashpacking by providing affordable accommodation in a chic environment which guarantees fun, comfort and security.

The attractive location, right in the middle of the UNESCO heritage zone is also part of the hostel's charm. Surrounded with a picturesque heritage architecture and historical places of interest. Ryokan is the perfect accommodation for your visit to Penang.

The name Ryokan is derived from the traditional 'Japanese Inn' which originated in the Edo period (1603-1868), the age when shoguns from the Tokugawa family and samurai were chopping heads in Japan. The traditional "Inns" are known for their refined design, excellent cuisine and an all-round cultural heritage. Our concept is unique because it's adopted from the 'Japanese Inn' but blended with the modern day features of chic boutique hotels. By providing hi-tech facilities, top-end comfort and exceptional design
