Eastern & Oriental Hotel
Historical architecture meets new design
One of Malaysia’s most famous hotels, the ‘E&O’ radiates style in a fantastic setting.
Many cities around the world have that one hotel that’s steeped in history and evokes memories of a bygone era. Singapore has Raffles and Rangoon has The Strand, while in Penang’s vibrant capital Georgetown, it’s the Eastern & Oriental Hotel. The hotel is split into two beautiful buildings – the Heritage Wing with a stylish waterfront pool and the modern Victory Annexe with a sleek sixth-floor pool. Expect vintage cocktails at Farquhar’s Bar and English afternoon tea at Palm Court.
Why we love Eastern & Oriental Hotel
-
Luxurious Heritage Wing Suites come evening canapes and drinks.
-
Victory Annexe Corner Suites feature large balconies and claw and ball baths.
-
It’s a five-minute walk to George Town’s colonial villas, Chinese houses and rainbow of street art.
-
You’re in one of Asia’s best street food destinations.
Rooms
The 232 suites at E&O are stylishly designed with a mix of modern and light tones, antique furnishings, natural wood floors and partially marble bathrooms. Some of the suites, such as the Deluxe and Premier Suites, overlook the Straits of Malacca, while others like the George Town Suites have city views. We love the vintage-style roll top baths and more heritage vibes in the Straits Suites and Writers Suites. Over in the Victory Annexe are the Studio Suites, which have a balcony overlooking the water, and the dual-aspect Corner Suites.
Spacious suites with a marble bathroom and views over the seafront. Located in the Heritage Wing.
