Lexis Suites is the one and only hotel in Penang to feature a private pool in each guestroom! Located at the balcony, the dipping pool is paired with a steam room for two. No other hotel in Penang comes close to this level of luxury.

Since the enormous suite is meant for 4 people, the bathroom is befittingly large too. There are separate sections for the wardrobe, sink, toilet and bathing area.
