CENTURY BAY
PRIVATE RESIDENCES

Building a dream on one man's vision morphed into what is now Kim Haus.  What was once the headquarters of prestigious jewellery, the Penang Kim How is now Kim Haus Loft.  The team managed to retain the history & heritage of Georgetown yet developed a hip place for the new age travelers which contains 40 rooms.   

​

The building facade had been retained as original meanwhile the interior has been placed with a conceptualized walkabout goldsmith's museum.   Not only that, the name also has been somewhat retained as Kim Haus, originating from the word Kim How.
