Grandeur, charm, aura, location, room size

Service, quality of food, pool cleaniness, staff unfriendliness

The Eastern and Oriental Hotel in Penang is a landmark in historic hotels. Its location is perfect and grandeur unmatched in George Town. Nevertheless the hotel needs to improve the quality of its services and staff and could take more from advantage of its glorious past.

Must stay in Georgetown

Charming and s.th. really special

Its a city hotel, don't expect nice beaches.

Stayed there for two nights in 04/2009. Upon arrival we were upgraded to real suite which name I already forgot. This suite was like going thru a time tunnel 150 years back. Just perfect. The best about this place is the breakfast on the terrasse. Never had so many choices and such a breath taking view. So I strongly recommend staying at the E&O Hotel even for just 2 nights and then move on to the beaches, you won't be disappointed, trust me!

a majestic stay

This is a wonderful heritage building with huge rooms and high ceilings. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole ambiance and would definitely return. It was strategically placed to all the shopping and eating areas.

Thought the staff were helpful but maybe a bit too laid back for such a distinguished place.

The hotel is a gem with lovely view of the sea and a short esplanade to walk out to after meals. It is close enough to penang road, the other historical sites and shopping and eating areas. There is a loop bus you can take to avoid the high taxi prices. A must go is armenian street and perhaps have a meal at the nan yang cuisine restaurant which seems out of the 50's. The old world charm of the hotel was there but the luxurious bathroom was very up to date. There is a wonderful massage spa just across the road which was worth every cent. Truly enjoyed my three days there.

Shopping Tip : Shop at nearby gurney plaza. It is new and has a huge array of shops. There is a food court below as well.
