Date 5nov - Arrived at butterworth station at 1.40am in the morning. A lot of people couldn't leave this building due to heavy downpour, strong wind and flood. No taxi and uber available due to incoming road not accessible as the result of flood. A lot of people group together at the exit to shield themselves from the strong cold wind and rain. And guess what, we also can't use the toilet as it was locked and by 3am.. a lot of us still can't leave the building and guess what? The train staff switch off the lights and left us customers waiting for the downpour to stop in the dark! What a caring and considerate train station staffs.

I visited Butterworth station for the first time yesterday, to catch the electric train to KL. It is a separate building to the new Penang Central, and is dire need of an update. Waiting areas are small and can be crowded quickly. No need to arrive early as entry only happens one hour before departure, and entry to the platforms only 10 mins before train departure. The crowd had to make space for the arriving passengers to allow them to exit. The toilets were not maintained, no soap or tissue, with lots of water on the floors. A disappointing experience. My experience of the train was much better.

If you plan to go to penang this is the station that you need to disembark. It served both the kommuter train to the north from here and the ets train from the south. Station crew are always on hand to guide the bulk of tourists wanting to disembark here and to take the train from here to their destination. Ferry terminals to the island are walking distance from here as do the penang sentral building which serves all the express bus to butterworth area

The last time I took train from /to Butterworth was about 40 years ago. This week I took ETS from KL Sentral to Butterworth. So excited to be back to kampingku. Butterworth, to me is one of the main, busy and popular station... Shockingly does not have an escalator! Only stairs n 1 lift!!! Either you struggle with your luggage up n down the stairs or you join the long wait for lift.

This place is in bad shape. Currently you have to take a shuttle bus to / from ferry terminal and bus station, wasting time. Previously you had to walk up stairs and then down again between station and ferry. Temporary fencing is put to control access to platforms but toilets are in that restricted area. No food outlet. On the plus side, there’s an air-conditioned waiting area.

This place is good and have security.. But the Bus driver not ha'e manners.. Cant wait for me and my child to go for toilet. And anger with us.. Ask we to let he now where we go, but he also not in bus when we go to toilet. With who we should ask a permision... Bad driver bus transnasional heading to malacca from kuala perlis on 13th october 2017 at 12.20 pm..

It got gated car park. But he guard said some spots are easily flooded, so don't park there. the spots are with near construction site where it is shaded. Platform is clean. Train is clean. To get to platform, you have to climb 1 1/2 level staircase. Will be challenging for elder people. So, aim for lift from beginning. Overall for me, it's a smooth experience

I had a 5 hour wait for a train from Butterworth to Kuala Lumpur. I was traveling at 0445 in the morning. I arrived early and found the train station closed. I could not sit in the train's waiting area. I had to sit in a very small seating area at the station's entrance for 5 hours. There were no comfortable seats other than a wooden bench.

Finish of renovation and now new look! Modern place hub transportation to penang and also train station all malaysia cities and also to thailand. To penang ferry cost only 1.5rm. From penang free. Train to KL and other cities in malaysia (KTM), SG, THAI, VIETNAM Bus terminal to all cities malaysia and thailand (to bangkok)

The building is new and it is really quick to find ferry for 6RM to the city centre and back is free. But if you travel via bus, it is not so easy to find them. I book conection online, but you must go to the counter and let it print. For me doesn't matter 2RM, but it is a lot of paper and work, that's not necessary. ?!

Mempunyai ruangan menunggu berhawa dingin tetapi tidak cukup sejuk. Mempunyai tempat duduk di dalamnya lebih kurang 84 tempat duduk. Di luar boleh memuatkan lebih kurang 80 orang untuk menunggu. Mempunyai surau lelaki dan perempuan dan mempunyai tandas berbayar 30sen. Mempunyai lif dan fasiliti OKU.

Hope there is improvement in this station. Its a disaster here everytime travel. People park at the roadside creating massive jam. There is carpark why not open carpark for people to park. Parking at roadside entering the station should not be allowed. Who can we report this issue to?

Just want to point out the dirty toilet despite the toilet entrance fee. MAJOR CLEANING desperately needed here. Also the offensive remarks / doodle / graffiti on the toilet doors. This is not a paid comment but you guys need to buy: 1. magic clean stain mold spray 2. clorox

selesa,cepat,,cuma untuk pejalan kaki yg rushing dr komuter ke hentian feri pusingan terlalu jauh walaupon shuttel disediakan,,pintu belakang yg dijaga oleh RELA jika dibuka untuk laluan lbh memberi manfaat kpada pengguna

Easy to buy tickets to Pedang Besar here. If you are arriving to butterworth and looking for the ferry. Once you scan your ticket to leave. Turn left and walk to the connecting bridge. Follow the signs for ferry terminal.

Train is always not on time. Aircond does not always function. Too many people board the train and the seats are too little. Technical problems happen most of the time. I hope they do something about this …

Tried to board ETS from here. For a new station, I would say it's not well planned. The station is cramped and chaotic. It doesn't look like it can accommodate many passengers especially during peak hour.

Centralised public transportation of intercity & long distance busses, ferry terminal and train station. It might looks confusing since this terminal is still under major reconstruction so bear with it.

Modern train station and new building, we went from KL to butterworth by tiny bullet train. My suggestion is, if you have limited time dor travelling, you can use plane and go back by train.

Worst ever had. Use to provide parking space. Now they rather close the parking area. If you plan to travel without anyone drop you, don’t come here. Parking only reserve for staffs only.

フェリーを降りてから、penang sentralを抜けてbutterworthの駅まで15分弱と見積もると安全です。 padang besarまではkmuterなので、当日にチケットカウンターでチケットを買います。 写真は、左の欄が発車駅、上の欄が列車番号、書いてある時間は発車時間です。 ペナンからパダンべサールの経路の情報は少ないので、参考にしてください。

バンコクから寝台列車に乗ったあとに寄りました。世界遺産指定のペナン島へいくフェリー乗り場へ直結してます。フェリーは30円ほどで乗れます。KL Central駅への電車もPadang Besarよりも多く出ていますので、ペナン島に立ち寄ってからクアラルンプールへ行くのもありです。駅自体には特に何もありません。SIMカードなど欲しい方はペナン島へいけば買えます。

Usually not crowded. A bit of long walk from platform to terminal building. Hopefully will have a proper indoor walkway linkage to Penang Sentral station in the near future.

Upgrading infrastructure in the progress at the moment. Crowded places. Its Easy for traveller/backpackers to get public transport at the bus terminal and train/commuter

Could be better designed to account for the flow of people. Only one lift and one set of stairs to the exit. The train itself was clean and convenient from Ipoh or KL.

Why the Malaysian Goverment Doesn't build or extend The (KTM ) ETS Train or ( KTM ) Commuter Train for crossing the Penang Strait from Butterworth to Penang Island ?

Nice place, controlled crowd. Close to Penang Sentral & post office. There are information provided for the ticket & schedule. Train to Padang Besar arrive hourly

Worst!!! Entrance & exit same path. To make it worst, both sides cars parked as no parking.. Got stucked 30mins plus with baby inside car due to this...!!!

This place is proof that Malays are terrible at management. Everything wrong with this place. Management only care about their comfort, not the public.

Nice small train station. Trains to KL and padang besar. Even has air conditioned waiting room. (Kommuter to padang besar: 11.4RM, ETS to KL: 79RM)

i had only this way to get to KL at the day. it took about 4 hours. there was a monitor played movies in the train. the seat was not bad and clean.

Bandaraya yg penuh kuasa pembeli ini blh menaik taraf ekonomi di era norma baru Rakyat hidup tiada kemiskinan bandaraya berkembang ekonomi .

Really nice new station... during RMCO only few trains are still running. Check the pictures I’ve updated with the timetable. Hope it helps!

Nak review butterworth,besar sangat..review station KTM je la.station yang berhampiran dengan jetty.10 minit jalan kaki sampai le ke jetty

Slow queues and bureaucratic service that I had become accustomed to, construction work was going on so place was a maze to navigate.

Отличный получился вокзал после ремонта, новое удобное здание. Удобно добраться до многих мест, включая Куала-Лумпур и Сингапур.

Tends to get congested because of only 1 exit n entrance, everyone needs to make a uturn to come out after dropping passengers.

Good starting point to Pinang island, but Taxi service is terrible, an old, destroyed, uncompleted taxi without aircon.

For years, only one girl for the tickets service.. do you want to work a little more? Making it quicker...more clerks !

Needs more signs. Difficultly in seeing where the taxi rank is and where the ferry is. The sign just has an arrow?!

Car park A full due to 50% spaces reserved for taxi. Car park B flood. KTM memang boleh, billions spent for a joke!

Wasn't the best experience as we couldn't find taxis and grabcar app didn't seem to work properly. at the station

Penang rapid is not very rapid. There has been lots of delays. Leave a few hours to compensate for the delays.

They disabled all power point!! Hey!! This is digital age!! Everybody own electrical appliances u moron!!!

Railway station for Penang, it's currently under renovation before the new Penang Sentral is completed.

Tak faham langsung kenapa tempat letak kereta semua tutup, sampai nak tunggu punya tempat pun tak ada.

near to bus station and ferry terminal . once u reach here , you can go everywhere in penang .

Kena tambah train ETS lg ke KL bgtu KL ke B'worth. Saturday, Sunday n PubLic susah dpt tiket.

Train to KL delayed 30 minutes.. slow and inefficient. No reasons was given! Irresponsible..

Like to have adventures so Butterworth has many interesting and attractive places to go to.

建议欲前往此处程搭长途ETS的人，最好提早1小时启程到此处，不是因为ETS需要提早，而是乘车进入此处入口载送的车辆非常多，必须要轮流进入，尤其是遇到下雨的时候堵车更加明显。

Very bad , motorcycle park roadside caused car very very very inconvenience. Poor KTM.

Very very bad service. No aircond , so hot. Please improve your train service . …

Better than Delhi train station! Clean, ada surau. Ni bukan main station so okay lah

สะดวกสบาย ราคาประหยัด สะอาด ตรงเวลาดีมาก ที่สำคัญได้นั่งชมบรรยากาศระหว่างทางอีกด้วย

They NEED to do announcements in English so many foreign travelers can understand.

2018年3月現在、バターワース駅の工事でフェリー乗り場にはシャトルバスで行き来するようになっています。１５分程度かかったので時間の調整に気をつけてください。

please somebody help me. does butterworth train still going to bangkok? thanks

Quite new and needs improving due to derimental effects of surroundings

No good foods/snacks but the train's condition is good and comfortable

Good station connected to the ferry terminal. 4 hours to Kuala Lumpur.

Butter Worth Railway Station. you can go to Penang island from here.

New facilities will utilise this area. More convenient for tourists

Well maintain. Easy to access. Clean environment. Transit point.

good place to visit every one. You can find a train to any where

Glad KTMB came up with its double track to ease the congestion.

It is not a user friendly infrastructure design. Disappointed.

Gare moderne, bien équipée et avec une signalisation bilingue.

槟城下吉隆坡必经之地，吉隆坡北上的列车到这里，可以直接转坐渡轮进槟岛，槟岛那头就是世界文化遗产“乔治市”，游玩景点扎堆。

Чуть более двух часов до Паланга Бесар всего за 11 рингит.

Worst ever ktm staff here. Pls sack those lil napoleon.

เมืองบัตเตอร์เวร์ธที่เคยเห็นขบวนรถไฟต้นสายจากหัวลำโพง

Mau juga rasain naik ETS tapi kemahalan menurutku

Quite clean, very good maintenance. Nice service.

The ticket counter operating hour: 4.30am - 8pm

きれいで近代的な駅。電車の本数が少ないので注意が必要です。フェリーターミナルと直結しています

Penambahbaikan yang entah bila nak siap

การคมนาคมที่สะดวก และง่ายต่อการเดินทาง

ここから始発の寝台列車でタイ、バンコク中央駅までマレー半島縦断可能です。

冷到靠北的KTM，建議坐ETS到KL Sentral的遊客要穿羽毛衣啊！

Top up for Touch N Go not available

giod place to work, relax n holiday

A little bit dirty but it's alright

Pretty clean and we'll operated.

Tempt utk naik keretapi n fery
