Mansion One is a 31-storey skyscraper within the city of George Town in Penang, Malaysia. Located at Northam Road, the 31-storey building contains 277 suites and 110 hotel rooms, as well as commercial and office spaces.[3] At the time of writing, the skyscraper houses Vouk Hotel and a handful of eateries, including a Starbucks outlet.[4]

History

Built in 1998, the skyscraper was originally named Northam Tower.[5] It functioned as the Supreme Court of Penang between 2006 and 2011, when the original court building at Light Street underwent renovation works. Aside from the court, the structure also housed the regional offices of Samsung, EON Bank and ING Insurance.

In 2011, the skyscraper was acquired by Magna Putih Sdn Bhd, a local private limited firm.[5][6][7] The building was subsequently renovated into a hotel and renamed as Mansion One.
