Try Stallion Apartment @ N5.38041 E100.31167 ( 04-6560118 )I doubt there is any rooms left at this time. I'll ask around and PM you the results. When are you coming (dates)?

I once stayed there due to a promotional rate for their 2-bedroom apartment for RM800. It is about 113sqM and accommodated my group of 8 pax comfortably. Hall has sofa beds and has a kitchen.

The selling point of G Hotel is its location, Car stays in car park :mrgreen:

next door to Gurney Drive Food Centre, Gurney Plaza, Gurney Paragon ( don't know if it has open )

walking distance to Pulau Tikus market for hawker style food ( breakfast )
walking distance to BaliHai Seafood, Carnation BakKutTeh, 77 Curry Fish head,

short drive to hawker style food stalls at Northam Beach Cafe, GoodAll Cafe ...

My only complain is the horrible traffic in evenings :thumbsdown:
