JAWI PERANAKAN MANSION

Jawi Peranakan Mansion (JPM), is the latest addition to George Town Heritage Hotels' collection, also another creation of Chris Ong which consists of 8 mansion rooms and 6 family suites. It was acquired in the year 2012 in a dilapidated state. He has artfully restored it to what it once was, a stately and elegant Anglo Indian mansion. It took three years to bring back to life to its original architectural elements of lime plaster walls, wood lattices, plantation shutters, cornices, architraves, Doric columns and, Adam's wheel window arches which was a little part of JPM's original design. The building is an eclectic mix of the 18th/19th century British architecture and Muslim design features from the Mughal times accentuated with Indian ethnic motifs.
