Ok, I'm going to make this really short & sweet! Went Penang for a work trip and stayed over just one night.
A professor on the trip is a Gold member of the SIA Krisflyer and hence he brought me into the SIA Premier Lounge for breakfast. A first time for me! Impressed with the range of food and drinks - ranging from noodles/ sandwiches to freshly brewed coffee and even hard liquor! Yum! The Lounge also offers complimentary use of computer and massage chairs ;)

Stayed at Vistana Hotel, 10min drive from the Penang Airport (taxi fare cost RM26 - standard fee which you pay at a counter before boarding the taxi). The single room cost RM207nett inclusive of breakfast (quite pathetic range ;p). However, you can enjoy free use of internet in-room or at their business centre (can even scan and print FOC!).
My comfy king bed!
Flat screen TV
View from 14th floor.
Took a cab down to Gurney Drive (hotel is at least 20min to Georgetown) for dinner.

On the return trip, yup, once again, the Prof brought me into the SIA Lounge at Penang Airport. As expected, it is smaller (both size and range of food) compared to the one in Singapore but good enough, I suppose.
Will be going to Penang and Ipoh in the 3rd week of Mar again.. but this time round, the Prof not going.. so no more such privileges ;(
